External Reset

An external reset is generated by a low level on the RESET pin. Reset pulses longer
than 50 ns will generate a reset, even if the clock is not running. Shorter pulses are not
guaranteed to generate a reset. When the applied voltage reaches the Reset Threshold
Voltage (V

RST

) on its positive edge, the delay timer starts the MCU after the Time-out

period (t

TOUT

) has expired.
