VOLTAGE DROP DETECTION CIRCUIT
The built-in voltage drop detection circuit is designed to detect a
drop in voltage and to reset the microcomputer if the supply voltage
drops below a set value.

Notes 1: In the RAM back-up mode by the POF2 instruction,
the voltage drop detection circuit stops.
2: When the VDD (supply voltage) is VRST (detection voltage) or less,
the voltage drop detection circuit reset signal is output.

RESET pin
The microcomputer starts
operation after the on-chip
oscillator (internal oscillator)
is counted 5359 times.
Notes 1: After system is released from reset, the on-chip oscillator (internal oscillator)
is selected as the operation clock of the microcomputer.
2: Refer to the voltage drop detection circuit characteristics in the electrical characteristics
for the rating value of VRST (detection voltage).
3: The VRST (detection voltage) does not include hysteresis.
