2.3 Reset Pin

When directly connecting the reset pin to the reset IC, position the reset IC as close as possible. Noise can
also be reduced by inserting a low-pass filter. Do not run the trace for the reset pin parallel to other traces
(traces with large current flows or rapid level changes). If no low-pass filter is used, shield the trace for the
reset pin with the GND trace. The GND traces used for shielding should be at least 0.3 mm wide and there
should be a space of 0.3 mm to 2.0 mm between them and adjacent traces.
Board design hint
The pulse width input to the reset pin is specified in the timing requirements. If the noise input to the
reset pin has a shorter width than the specified pulse width, a reset condition may be released before
the MCU's internal initialization has completed, possibly causing program runaway.
Figure 2.9 shows an example reset pin circuit configuration, and Figure 2.10 shows an example reset pin
wiring pattern (multilayer board).
