The Reset input can be used to force a reset pulse longer than the internal reset con-
trolled by the Power Monitor. RST input has a pull-down resistor allowing power-on
reset by simply connecting an external capacitor to VCC as shown in Figure 17. Resistor
value and input characteristics are discussed in the Section “DC Characteristics” of the
AT89C51CC03 datasheet. The status of the Port pins during reset is detailed in Table 9.
