Reset Controller Registers

The reset controller contains two registers, the reset controller software reset register (RSRR) and
the reset controller reset status register (RCSR).

9.6.1.1

Reset Controller Software Reset Register (RSRR)

The reset controller software reset register has a software reset bit, which when set, causes a reset
of the SA-1100. The software reset bit (SWR) is located within the least significant bit of the
write-only reset controller software reset register (RSRR). Writing a one to this bit causes all
on-chip resources to reset but does not cause the PLL to go out of lock. The software reset bit is
self-resetting. It is automatically cleared to zero several system clock cycles after a one is written to
it. Writing zero to the software reset bit has no effect. Care should be taken to restrict access to this
register by programming MMU permissions. For reserved bits, writes have no effect. Reading this
register returns zeros.

The following table shows the RSRR.

Software reset.

0 – Do not invoke a software reset of the chip.
