8.7 Reset function
The PCF2129A has a Power-On Reset (POR) and a Power-On Reset Override (PORO)
function implemented.
8.7.1 Power-On Reset (POR)
The POR is active whenever the oscillator is stopped. The oscillator is also considered to
be stopped during the time between power-on and stable crystal resonance (see
Figure 10). This time may be in the range of 200 ms to 2 s depending on temperature and
supply voltage. Whenever an internal reset occurs, the oscillator stop flag is set (OSF set
logic 1).

After POR, the following mode is entered:
• 32.768 kHz CLKOUT active
• Power-On Reset Override (PORO) available to be set
• 24 hour mode is selected
• Battery switch-over is enabled
• Battery low detection is enabled
The register values after power-on are shown in Table 4.
8.7.2 Power-On Reset Override (PORO)
The POR duration is directly related to the crystal oscillator start-up time. Due to the long
start-up times experienced by these types of circuits, a mechanism has been built in to
disable the POR and hence speed up on-board test of the device.
