23.4.2.1 1.5 V POR Circuit
The 1.5 V POR circuit monitors the voltage on the V
RCSNS
 pad. The 1.5 V POR functions if the V
RC33
 
pad is powered. If the user does not power V
RC33
 to the specified voltage, the 1.5 V POR is disabled and 
the user must follow the specified power sequence.
23.4.2.2 3.3 V POR Circuit
The 3.3 V POR circuit is used to ensure that V
DDSYN
 is high enough that the FMPLL begins to operate 
correctly. 
23.4.2.3 RESET Power POR Circuit
The RESET power POR circuit monitors the supply that powers the RESET pin, and ensures that the 
voltage supply to the RESET
 pin is high enough to reliably propagate the state of the input. The supply 
monitored by this POR cannot exceed 5.5 V.
