programs for programming and erasing, by means of a key code, and by the RAM-emulation
register.

Description
•
A power-on reset (including a power-
on reset by the WDT) and entry to
standby mode reinitialize the
program/erase interface register and
the device enters a program/erase-
protected state.
Resetting by means of the RES pin
•
after power is initially supplied will not
make the device enter the reset state
unless the RES pin is held low until
oscillation has stabilized. In the case
of a reset during operation, hold the
RES pin low for the RES pulse width
that is specified in the section on AC
characteristics section. If the device is
reset during programming or erasure,
data values in the flash memory are
not guaranteed. In this case, after
keeping the RES pin low for at least
100 µs, execute erasure and then
execute programming again.
