CHAPTER 21 RESET FUNCTION
The following seven operations are available to generate a reset signal.
(1) External reset input via RESET
pin
(2) Internal reset by watchdog timer program loop detection
(3) Internal reset by comparison of supply voltage and detection voltage of power-on-reset (POR) circuit
(4) Internal reset by comparison of supply voltage of the voltage detector (LVD) and detection voltage
(5) Internal reset by execution of illegal instruction
Note
(6) Internal reset by RAM parity error
(7) Internal reset by illegal-memory access
External and internal resets start program execution from the address at 0000H and 0001H when the reset signal is
generated.
A reset is effected when a low level is input to the RESET
pin, the watchdog timer overflows, or by POR and LVD circuit
voltage detection, execution of illegal instruction
Note
, RAM parity error or illegal-memory access, and each item of
hardware is set to the status shown in Table 21 - 1.
Note The illegal instruction is generated when instruction code FFH is executed.
Reset by the illegal instruction execution not issued by emulation with the in-circuit emulator or on-chip
debug emulator.
Caution 1. For an external reset, input a low level for 10 μs or more to the RESET
pin.
To perform an external reset upon power application, input a low level to the RESET
pin, turn power
on, continue to input a low level to the pin for 10 μs or more within the operating voltage range
shown in 31.4 AC Characteristics, and then input a high level to the pin.
Caution 2. During reset input, the X1 clock, XT1 clock, high-speed on-chip oscillator clock, and low-speed on-
chip oscillator clock oscillating. External main system clock input and external subsystem clock
input become invalid.
Caution 3. The port pins become the following state because each SFR and 2nd SFR are initialized after reset.
• P40: High-impedance during the external reset period or reset period by the POR. High level during
other types of reset or after receiving a reset signal (connected to the on-chip pull-up resistance).
• P130: Low level during the reset period or after receiving a reset signal.
• Ports other than P40 and P130: High-impedance during the reset period or after receiving a reset
signal.
