Power-on Reset

A Power-on Reset (POR) pulse is generated by an On-chip detection circuit. The detec-
tion level is defined in Table 18. The POR is activated whenever V

CC

is below the

detection level. The POR circuit can be used to trigger the Start-up Reset, as well as to
detect a failure in supply voltage.

A Power-on Reset (POR) circuit ensures that the device is Reset from Power-on.
Reaching the Power-on Reset threshold voltage invokes the delay counter, which deter-
mines how long the device is kept in RESET after V

CC

rise. The RESET signal is

activated again, without any delay, when V

CC

decreases below the detection level.
