Status of I/O Ports During Reset
10.2 Status of I/O Ports During Reset
Two types of resets affect the states of the MC68VZ328’s I/O ports: warm reset and power-up reset. A
warm reset refers to any reset initiated while power to the processor remains uninterrupted. A power-up
reset occurs the first time power is supplied to the MC68VZ328. Power-up resets are also called cold start
resets.

10.2.1 Warm Reset

Figure 10-1 on page10-3 details timing during a warm reset. All I/O ports, except Ports B and M, reset to
their default states on assertion of the reset signal and remain at their default states during the time period
labeled Reset Assertion Time Length. The port default state is determined by the register reset values of
the I/O port registers. Register reset values are found in Table3-1 on page 3-2 and Table3-2 on page 3-8.
Ports B and M maintain their previous programmed states on reset assertion and retain their states during
the Reset Assertion Time Length. The previous states of Ports B and M before reset assertion are, for the
purposes of the figure, assumed.
