Abstract
A microcontroller unit (MCU) is provided. The MCU includes a reset circuit, a clock circuit, a detection circuit, a counter and a control circuit. The detection circuit detects a first EFT event, and when a first EFT event is detected, the detection circuit generates a first block signal. The counter is coupled to the detection circuit, and when the counter receives the first block signal, the counter starts to count. The control circuit is coupled to the reset circuit, the clock circuit and the counter, and receives the first block signal from the counter. When the control circuit receives the first block signal, the control circuit maintains output signals of the reset circuit and the clock circuit in a prior state, in which the output signals have not been influenced by the first EFT event, until the count number of the counter reaches a default value.
