19.4.1.1 NRST Signal or Interrupt

The NRST manager handles the NRST input line asynchronously if RSTC_MR.URSTASYNC =1. When the NRST input is low, a user reset is immediately reported to the Reset State manager and the internal reset signals are asserted even if there is a clock failure on MD_SLCK (safe reset).

The NRST manager handles the NRST input line synchronously if RSTC_MR.URSTASYNC=0. When the line is low, it is first resynchronized on slow clock before it is reported to the Reset State manager. In both cases, when the NRST goes from low to high, the internal reset is synchronized with the monitoring slow clock to provide a safe internal de-assertion of reset (if enabled).

If RSTC_MR.URSTEN=0, the assertion of the NRST input pin does not trigger a VDDCORE domain reset.

The level of the pin NRST is reported in NRSTL of the Status register (RSTC_SR).

As soon as the pin NRST is asserted (low level), RSTC_SR.URSTS=1. This bit is cleared on read.

If RSTC_MR.URSTIEN=1, the assertion of NRST pin triggers an interrupt rather than a VDDCORE reset.
