Low-Voltage Inhibit (LVI)
12.3 Features
Features of the LVI module include:
•
Two levels of low-voltage condition are detected:
– Low-voltage detection
– Low-voltage reset
•
User-configurable for stop mode
12.4 Functional Description
Figure 12-1 shows the structure of the LVI module. The LVI module
contains a bandgap reference circuit and two comparators. The LVI
monitors V voltage during normal MCU operation. When enabled, the
DD
LVI module generates a reset when V falls below the V
threshold.

In addition to forcing a reset condition, the LVI module has a second
circuit dedicated to low-voltage detection. When V falls below V
,

DD
the output of the low-voltage comparator asserts the LOWV flag in the
LVI status register (LVISR). In applications that require detecting low
batteries, software can monitor by polling the LOWV bit.
