CHAPTER 2: POWER SUPPLY AND INITIAL RESET
The oscillation detection circuit outputs the initial reset
signal at power-on until the crystal oscillation circuit starts
oscillating, or when the crystal oscillation circuit stops
oscillating for some reason.
The circuit may malfunction if the power is turned on erro-
neously. In such cases, use one of the following two initial
resetting methods.
An initial reset can be invoked externally by making the
reset pin high. This high level must be maintained for at
least 5 ms (when oscillating frequency, fosc1 = 32 kHz),
because the initial reset circuit contains a noise rejection
circuit. When the reset pin goes low the CPU begins to
operate.
Another way of invoking an initial reset externally is to input
a high signal simultaneously to the input ports (K00–K03)
selected with the mask option. The specified input port pins
must be kept high for 2–4 sec (when oscillating frequency
fosc1 = 32 kHz), because of the noise rejection circuit. Table
2.2.1 shows the combinations of input ports (K00–K03) that
can be selected with the mask option.

B
K00*K01
C
K00*K01*K02
D
K00*K01*K02*K03
When, for instance, mask option D (K00*K01*K02*K03) is
selected, an initial reset is executed when the signals input
to the four ports K00–K03 are all high at the same time.
If you use this function, make sure that the specified ports
do not go high at the same time during normal operation.
Since this function uses a timer-controlled noise rejection
circuit, if the oscillator (OSC1) is not running, or if the timer
remains reset by software, initial resetting by means of this
function is impossible. (See 4.7, Clock Timer.)
