13.3 Reset and System Initialization
The MCU has these internal reset sources:
Power-on reset (POR) module
Computer operating properly (COP) module
Low-voltage inhibit (LVI) module
Illegal opcode
Illegal address
Forced monitor mode entry reset (MENRST) module
All of these resets produce the vector $FFFE–$FFFF ($FEFE–$FEFF in monitor mode) and assert the
internal reset signal (IRST). IRST causes all registers to be returned to their default values and all
modules to be returned to their reset states.
These internal resets clear the SIM counter and set a corresponding bit in the SIM reset status register
(SRSR). See 13.4 SIM Counter and 13.7.1 SIM Reset Status Register.
13.3.1 Active Resets from Internal Sources
An internal reset can be caused by an illegal address, illegal opcode, COP timeout, LVI, POR, or
MENRST as shown in Figure 13-4.
NOTE
For LVI or POR resets, the SIM cycles through 4096 CGMXCLK cycles
during which the SIM asserts IRST. The internal reset signal then follows
with the 64-cycle phase as shown in Figure 13-5.
The COP reset is asynchronous to the bus clock.
