15.2 Embedded Characteristics

  • Management of the Embedded Voltage Regulator to Enter In and Exit from Backup Mode
  • Management of Supply Monitors on VDD3V3 and VDDCORE to Trigger a Reset
  • Shutdown Logic for External VDDCORE Generation
    • Software assertion of the Shutdown Output pin (SHDN)
    • Automatic de-assertion from the configurable wake-up events
  • Slow Clock Generation
    • MD_SLCK—Monitoring domain slow clock. This clock, sourced from the Slow RC oscillator, is the only permanent clock of the system and feeds the safety-critical functions of the device (WDT, RSTC, SUPC, frequency monitors and detectors, PMC start-up time counters). Its source cannot be modified.
    • TD_CLK—Timing domain slow clock. This clock, generally sourced from the 32.768 kHz crystal oscillator, is routed to the RTC and RTT peripherals.
  • Independent Tamper Detection on 5 Inputs with Configurable Backup Mode Exit
  • Programmable Immediate Clear of the General-Purpose Backup Registers (GPBR) on Tamper Events
  • Support of Multiple Wake-Up Sources to Exit from Backup Mode
    • 15 wake-up inputs with programmable debouncers
    • Real-Time Clock alarm
    • Real-Time Timer alarm
    • Supply monitor detection on VDD3V3, with programmable sampling period and voltage threshold
    • Detection of VDDCORE rising edge when externally supplied
