2.7 System Reset (RESET_N)
The ZOE-M8 GNSS SiPs provide a RESET_N pin to reset the system. The RESET_N is an input-only with internal
pull-up resistor. It must be at low level for at least 10 ms to make sure RESET_N is detected. It is used to reset the
system. Leave RESET_N open for normal operation. The RESET_N complies with the VCC level and can be actively
driven high.
RESET_N should be only used in critical situations to recover the system. The Real-Time Clock (RTC) will also
be reset and thus immediately afterwards the receiver cannot perform a Hot Start.
In reset state, the SiP consumes a significant amount of current. It is therefore recommended to use RESET_N
only as a reset signal and not as an enable/disable.
