The power-on reset circuit is configured to reset control register1, 2, and clock adjustment register when VDD
power up from 0v. The oscillation halt sensing circuit is configured to record a halt on oscillation by 32.768-kHz
clock pulses. The supply voltage monitoring circuit is configured to record a drop in supply voltage below a
threshold voltage of 1.6 or 1.3V.
Each function has a monitor bit. I.e. the PON bit is for the power-on reset circuit, and
XST
bit is for the
oscillation halt sensing circuit, and VDET is for the supply voltage monitoring circuit. PON and VDET bits are
activated to “H”. However,
XST
bit is activated to “L”. The PON and VDET accept only the writing of 0, but
XST
accepts the writing of 0 and 1. The PON bit is set to 1, when VDD power-up from 0V, but VDET is set to 0,
and
XST
is indefinite.
The functions of these three monitor bits are shown in the table below.
