Sources of Reset

The MVME2603/2604 SBC has eight potential sources of reset:

1.Power-on reset

2.RESET switch (resets the VMEbus when the MVME2603/2604 is system controller)

3.Watchdog timer Reset function controlled by the SGS-Thomson MK48T559 timekeeper device (resets the VMEbus when the MVME2603/2604 is system controller)
