Note
1:
POR: A POR circuit holds the device in Reset when the power supply is turned on. The POR circuit is active until 
V
DD
 crosses the V
POR
 threshold and the delay, T
POR
, has elapsed.
2:
BOR: The on-chip voltage regulator has a BOR circuit that keeps the device in Reset until V
DD
 crosses the V
BOR
 
threshold and the delay, T
BOR
, has elapsed. The delay, T
BOR
, ensures the voltage regulator output becomes stable. 
3:
PWRT Timer: The programmable Power-up Timer (PWRT) continues to hold the processor in Reset for a 
specific period of time (T
PWRT
) after a BOR. The delay, T
PWRT
, ensures that the system power supplies have 
stabilized at the appropriate level for full-speed operation. After the delay, T
PWRT
 has elapsed and the SYSRST 
becomes inactive, which in turn, enables the selected oscillator to start generating clock cycles.
4:
Oscillator Delay: The total delay for the clock to be ready for various clock source selections is given in 
. Refer to 
 for more information. 
5:
When the oscillator clock is ready, the processor begins execution from location, 0x000000. The user application 
programs a GOTO instruction at the Reset address, which redirects program execution to the appropriate start-up 
routine.
6:
If the Fail-Safe Clock Monitor (FSCM) is enabled, it begins to monitor the system clock when the system clock is 
ready and the delay, T
FSCM
, has elapsed.

Note:
When the device exits the Reset
condition (begins normal operation), the
device operating parameters (voltage,
frequency, temperature, etc.) must be
within their operating ranges; otherwise,
the device may not function correctly.
The user application must ensure that
the delay between the time power is first
applied, and the time SYSRST becomes
inactive, is long enough to get all
operating parameters within specification.
