External Reset Pin
The external reset pin (RST pin) is a reset input pin. Input of an external Low level
generates a reset factor. MB90895 series starts the reset operation in synchronization
between the CPU and clock.

Notes:
• To prevent memory from being broken due to a reset during writing to memory, a Low
level is input to the RST pin in a machine cycle in which memory is not broken.
• The CPU operation clock is required to initialize internal circuits. During operation using
an external clock, in particular, the reset signal and CPU operation clock signal must be
input.
