1.6.1.3 Rising edge on RESET_N
LISA-U series modules can be switched on by means of the RESET_N input pin: the RESET_N signal must be
forced low for at least 50 ms and then released to generate a rising edge that starts the module power-on
sequence.
RESET_N input pin can also be used to perform an “external” or “hardware” reset of the module, as described
in the section 1.6.3.
Electrical characteristics of the LISA-U series RESET_N input are slightly different from the other digital I/O
interfaces: the pin provides different input voltage thresholds. Detailed electrical characteristics are described in
LISA-U1 series Data Sheet [1] and LISA-U2 series Data Sheet [2].
RESET_N is pulled high to V_BCKP by an integrated pull-up resistor also when the module is in power-off
mode. Therefore an external pull-up is not required on the application board.
The simplest way to switch on the module by means of the RESET_N input pin is to use a push button that
shorts the RESET_N pin to ground: the module will be switched on at the release of the push button, since the
RESET_N will be forced to the high level by the integrated pull-up resistor, generating a rising edge.
If RESET_N is connected to an external device (e.g. an application processor on an application board) an open
drain output can be directly connected without any external pull-up. A push-pull output can be used too: in this
case make sure that the high level voltage of the push-pull circuit is below the maximum voltage operating
range of the RESET_N pin (specified in the RESET_N pin characteristics table in LISA-U1 series Data Sheet [1]
and LISA-U2 series Data Sheet [2]). To avoid unwanted power-on or reset of the module make sure to fix the
proper level at the RESET_N input pin in all possible scenarios.
Some typical examples of application circuits using the RESET_N input pin are described in the section 1.6.3.
