7.4.2.1 Power-On Reset

When power is first applied to the MCU, the power-on reset module (POR) generates a pulse to indicate that power-on has occurred. The external reset pin (RST) is held low while the SIM counter counts out 4096 CGMXCLK cycles. Sixty-four CGMXCLK cycles later, the CPU and memories are released from reset to allow the reset vector sequence to occur. At power-on, the following events occur:

• A POR pulse is generated.

• The internal reset signal is asserted.

• The SIM enables the oscillator to drive CGMXCLK.

• Internal clocks to the CPU and modules are held inactive for 4096 CGMXCLK cycles to allow stabilization of the oscillator.

• The RST pin is driven low during the oscillator stabilization time.

• The POR bit of the reset status register (RSR) is set and all other

 

bits in the register are cleared.
