The LVD Reset circuitry generates a reset when VDD is below:

●

VIT+(LVD)when VDD is rising

●

VIT-(LVD) when VDD is falling.

The LVD function is illustrated in Figure 17.

The voltage threshold can be configured by option byte to be low, medium or high.

Provided the minimum VDD value (guaranteed for the oscillator frequency) is above

VIT-(LVD), the MCU can only be in two modes:

●

under full software control

●

in static safe reset.

In these conditions, secure operation is always ensured for the application without the need

for external reset hardware.

During a Low Voltage Detector Reset, the RESET pin is held low, thus permitting the MCU

to reset other devices.

Note:

The LVD allows the device to be used without any external RESET circuitry.

The LVD is an optional function which can be selected by option byte.

Use of LVD with capacitive power supply: with this type of power supply, if power cuts occur

in the application, it is recommended to pull VDD down to 0V to ensure optimum restart

conditions. Refer to circuit example in Figure 84: RESET pin protection when LVD is

enabled

It is recommended to make sure that the VDD supply voltage rises monotonously when the

device is exiting from Reset, to ensure the application functions properly.
