4.2 Reset
4.2.1 Overview
A reset is the highest-priority exception. When the RES pin goes low, all processing halts and the
chip enters the reset state. A reset initializes the internal state of the CPU and the registers of the
on-chip supporting modules. Reset exception handling begins when the RES pin changes from
low to high.
The chip can also be reset by overflow of the watchdog timer. For details see section 12,
Watchdog Timer.
4.2.2 Reset Sequence
The chip enters the reset state when the RES pin goes low.
To ensure that the chip is reset, hold the RES pin low for at least 20 ms at power-up. To reset the
chip during operation, hold the RES pin low for at least 10 system clock (φ) cycles. When the
flash memory and flash memory R versions are used, the RES pin must be held low for at least 20
system clock cycles. See appendix D.2, Pin States at Reset, for the states of the pins in the reset
state.
When the RES pin goes high after being held low for the necessary time, the chip starts reset
exception handling as follows.
• The internal state of the CPU and the registers of the on-chip supporting modules are
initialized, and the I bit is set to 1 in CCR.
• The contents of the reset vector address (H'0000 to H'0003 in advanced mode, H'0000 to
H'0001 in normal mode) are read, and program execution starts from the address indicated in
the vector address.
Figure 4.2 shows the reset sequence in modes 1 and 3. Figure 4.3 shows the reset sequence in
modes 2 and 4. Figure 4.4 shows the reset sequence in mode 6.
