9PRECAUTIONS ON MOUNTING
<Oscillation Circuit>
q Oscillation characteristics change depending on conditions (board pattern, components used, etc.).
In particular, when a ceramic oscillator or crystal oscillator is used, use the oscillator manufacturer’s
recommended values for constants such as capacitance and resistance.
q Disturbances of the oscillation clock due to noise may cause a malfunction. Consider the following
points to prevent this:
(1) Components which are connected to the OSC1
and OSC2 terminals, such as oscillators,
resistors and capacitors, should be connected in
the shortest line.
(2) As shown in the right hand figure, make a VDD
pattern as large as possible at circumscription
of the OSC1 and OSC2 terminals and the
components connected to these terminals.
Furthermore, do not use this VDD pattern for
any purpose other than the oscillation system.

q In order to prevent unstable operation of the oscillation circuit due to current leak between OSC1 and
VSS, please keep enough distance between OSC1 and VSS or other signals on the board pattern.
<Reset Circuit>
q The power-on reset signal which is input to the RESET terminal changes depending on conditions
(power rise time, components used, board pattern, etc.).
Decide the time constant of the capacitor and resistor after enough tests have been completed with the
application product.
When the built-in pull-down resistor of the RESET terminal, take into consideration dispersion of the
resistance for setting the constant.
q In order to prevent any occurrences of unnecessary resetting caused by noise during operating,
components such as capacitors and resistors should be connected to the RESET terminal in the
shortest line.
<Power Supply Circuit>
q Sudden power supply variation due to noise may cause malfunction. Consider the following points to
prevent this:
(1) The power supply should be connected to the VDD and VSS terminal with patterns as short and
large as possible.
(2) When connecting between the VDD and VSS terminals with a bypass capacitor, the terminals
should be connected as short as possible.
