buffer circuitry and to an internal voltage regulator. The internal voltage regulator provides a regulated
lower-voltage source to the CPU and other internal circuitry of the MCU.
Typically, application systems have two separate capacitors across the power pins: a bulk electrolytic
capacitor, such as a 10- F tantalum capacitor, to provide bulk charge storage for the overall system, and a
bypass capacitor, such as a 0.1- F ceramic capacitor, located as near to the MCU power pins as practical
to suppress high-frequency noise.

After a power-on reset (POR) into user mode, the PTA2/KBIP2/TCLK/RESET/V
general-purpose input port pin, PTA2. Setting RSTPE in SOPT configures the pin to be the RESET input
pin. After configured as RESET, the pin will remain as RESET until the next POR. The RESET pin can
be used to reset the MCU from an external source when the pin is driven low. When enabled as the RESET
pin (RSTPE = 1), the internal pullup device is automatically enabled.

2.4.3
The background / mode select function is shared with an output-only pin on PTA3 pin and the optional
analog comparator output. While in reset, the pin functions as a mode select pin. Immediately after reset
rises, the pin functions as the background pin and can be used for background debug communication.
While functioning as a background / mode select pin, this pin has an internal pullup device enabled. To use
as an output-only port, BKGDPE in SOPT must be cleared.
If nothing is connected to this pin, the MCU will enter normal operating mode at the rising edge of reset.
If a debug system is connected to the 6-pin standard background debug header, it can hold BKGD/MS low
during the power-on-reset, which forces the MCU to active background mode.
The BKGD pin is used primarily for background debug controller (BDC) communications using a custom
protocol that uses 16 clock cycles of the target MCU’s BDC clock per bit time. The target MCU’s BDC
clock equals the bus clock rate; therefore, no significant capacitance should connected to the BKGD/MS
pin that could interfere with background serial communications.
Although the BKGD pin is a pseudo open-drain pin, the background debug communication protocol
provides brief, actively driven, high speedup pulses to ensure fast rise times. Small capacitances from
