Conservation of the Register
Information
The U3742BM has an integrated power-on reset (POR) and brown-out detection cir-
cuitry to provide a mechanism to preserve the RAM register information.
According to Figure 23, a power-on reset is generated if the supply voltage V_S drops
below the threshold voltage V_ThReset. The default parameters are programmed into the
configuration registers in that condition. Once V_S exceeds V_ThReset, the POR is canceled
after the minimum reset period t_Rst. A POR is also generated when the supply voltage of
the receiver is turned on.
To indicate that condition, the receiver displays a reset marker (RM) at pin DATA after a
reset. The RM is represented by the fixed frequency f_RM at a 50% duty cycle. RM can be
canceled via an 'L' pulse t₁ at pin DATA. The RM implies the following characteristics:
• f_RM is lower than the lowest feasible frequency of a data signal. This means, RM
cannot be misinterpreted by the connected microcontroller.
• If the receiver is set back to polling mode via pin DATA, RM cannot be cancelled by
accident if t₁ is applied according to the proposal in the section “Programming the
Configuration Register” on page 23.
By means of that mechanism, the receiver cannot lose its register information without
communicating that condition via the reset marker RM.
