2.8 Voltage drop detection circuit
2.8 Voltage drop detection circuit
The built-in voltage drop detection circuit is designed to detect a drop in voltage and to reset the microcomputer
if the supply voltage drops below a set value.
Figure 2.8.1 shows the voltage drop detection reset circuit, and Figure 2.8.2 shows the operation waveform
example of the voltage drop detection circuit.
