6.12.3 Residual Voltage Protection
When the battery is replaced, device power (Vdd) is removed but the residual voltage
remains. The residual voltage may trip below Vdd minimum, but not to zero. This
condition may cause a poor power-on reset. Fig. 6-21 and Fig. 6-22 show how to
create a protection circuit against residual voltage.
