Two pairs of detection levels for reset generation voltage are available: when only the LVDR
circuit is used, or when the LVDI and LVDR circuits are both used. In addition, power supply
rise/drop detection voltages and a detection voltage reference voltage may be input from an
external source, allowing the detection level to be set freely by the user.
