Cypress CY7C601xx manual Reset, 1. System Status and Control Register CPUSCR 0xFF R/W, Bit 7 GIES

CY7C601xx, CY7C602xx

13. Reset

The microcontroller supports two types of resets: Power on Reset (POR) and Watchdog Reset (WDR). When reset is initiated, all registers are restored to their default states and all interrupts are disabled.

The occurrence of a reset is recorded in the System Status and Control Register (CPU_SCR). Bits within this register record the occurrence of POR and WDR Reset respectively. The firmware interrogates these bits to determine the cause of a reset.

The microcontroller resumes execution from Flash address 0x0000 after a reset. The internal clocking mode is active after a reset, until changed by user firmware.

Note The CPU clock defaults to 3 MHz (internal 24 MHz oscillator divide-by-8 mode) at POR to guarantee operation at the low VCC that might be present during the supply ramp.

The bits of the CPU_SCR register are used to convey status and control of events for various functions of an enCoRe II LV device.

Bit 7: GIES

The Global Interrupt Enable Status bit is a read only status bit and its use is discouraged. The GIES bit is a legacy bit, which was used to provide the ability to read the GIE bit of the CPU_F register. However, the CPU_F register is now readable. When this bit is set, it indicates that the GIE bit in the CPU_F register is also set which, in turn, indicates that the microprocessor services interrupts.

0 = Global interrupts disabled

1 = Global interrupt enabled Bit 6: Reserved

Bit 5: WDRS

The WDRS bit is set by the CPU to indicate that a WDR event has occurred. The user can read this bit to determine the type of reset that has occurred. The user can clear but not set this bit.

0 = No WDR

1 = A WDR event has occurred

Bit 4: PORS

The PORS bit is set by the CPU to indicate that a POR event has occurred. The user can read this bit to determine the type of reset that has occurred. The user can clear but not set this bit.

0 = No POR

1 = A POR event has occurred. (Note that WDR events does not occur until this bit is cleared.)

Bit 3: SLEEP

Set by the user to enable CPU sleep state. CPU remains in sleep mode until any interrupt is pending. The Sleep bit is covered in more detail in the Sleep Mode section.

0 = Normal operation

1 = Sleep

Bit [2:1]: Reserved

Bit 0: STOP

This bit is set by the user to halt the CPU. The CPU remains halted until a reset (WDR, POR, or external reset) takes place. If an application wants to stop code execution until a reset, the preferred method is to use the HALT instruction rather than writing to this bit.

0 = Normal CPU operation

1 = CPU is halted (not recommended)
