22 www.ubicom.com IP2022 Data Sheet The status register contains two bits to indicate the source
of the reset, WD and BO. The WD bit is cleared on reset
unless  the  reset  was  caused  by  the watchdog  timer,  in
which case the WD bit is set. The BO bit is cleared on
reset unless the reset was caused by the brown-out logic,
in which case, the BO bit is set.
Figure 3-12 shows a power-up sequence in which RST is
not tied to the IOVDD pin and the IOVDD signal is allowed
to rise and stabilize before RST pin is brought high. The
device  will  actually  come  out  of  reset  after  the  startup
stabilization period (Tstartup) from RST going high. The
WUDX2:0 bits of the FUSE0 register specify the length of
the stabilization period.
Figure 3-12  Power-On Reset, Separate RST Signal The  brown-out  circuitry  resets  the  chip  when  device
power (AVdd) dips below its minimum allowed value, but
not to zero, and then recovers to the normal value.
Figure    3-13    shows    the    on-chip    Power-On    Reset
sequence  in  which  the  RST  and  IOVDD  pins  are  tied
together. The IOVDD signal is stable before the startup
timer expires. In this  case, the CPU receives  a reliable
reset.
Figure 3-13  Power-On Reset, RST Tied To IOVdd However, Figure 3-14 depicts a situation in which IOVDD
rises too slowly. In this scenario, the startup timer will time
out prior to IOVDD reaching a valid operating voltage level
(IOVDD min). This means the CPU will come out of reset
and start operating with the supply voltage below the level
required  for  reliable  performance.  In  this  situation,  an
external RC circuit is recommended for driving RST. The
RC  delay  should  exceed  the  time  period  required  for
IOVDD to reach a valid operating voltage.
Figure 3-14  IOVdd Rise Time Exceeds Tstartup Figure   3-15   shows   the   recommended   external   reset
circuit.  The  external  reset  circuit  is  required  only  if  the
IOVDD rise time has the possibility of being too slow.
Figure 3-15  External Reset Circuit The  diode  D  discharges  the  capacitor  when  IOVDD  is
powered down.
R1 = 100 W to 1K W                                     will limit any current flowing into RST
from external capacitor C1. This protects the RST pin from
breakdown   due   to   Electrostatic   Discharge   (ESD)   or
Electrical Overstress (EOS).
R2 < 40K W                         is recommended to make sure that voltage
drop across R2 leaves the RST pin above a Vih level.
