Abstract
A reset pad circuit has first and second inputs coupled, respectively, to a first reset access port receiving a first reset request and a second reset access port. The reset pad circuit generates a first reset state signal. An internal reset activation gate has inputs coupled to internal resources and an output that applies a reset request to the second reset access port. A memory element has first and second inputs coupled, respectively, to the output of the reset activation gate and the output of the reset pad circuit. The memory element generates a second reset state signal when receiving the reset request until receiving the first reset state signal. A reset forward gate coupled to outputs of the reset pad circuit and the memory element generates a system reset request in response to the first reset state signal or the second state signal.
