The API Trimming bits APITR[5:0] must be set so the minimum period equals 0.2 ms if stable frequency
is desired.
NOTE
The rst period after enabling the counter by APIFE might be reduced by
API start up delay tsdel. The API internal RC oscillator clock is not available
if VREG_3V3 is in Shutdown Mode.
It is possible to generate with the API a waveform at an external pin by enabling the API by setting APIFE
and enabling the external access with setting APIEA. By setting APIES the waveform can be selected. If
APIES is set, then at the external pin a clock is visible with 2 times the selected API Period (
Table 23-9).
If APIES is not set, then at the external pin will be a high pulse at the end of every selected period with the
size of half of the min period
(Table 23-9). See device level specication for connectivity.

Resets
This section describes how VREG_3V3 controls the reset of the MCU.The reset values of registers and
23.4.10 Description of Reset Operation
23.4.10.1 Power-On Reset (POR)
During chip power-up the digital core may not work if its supply voltage VDD is below the POR
deassertion level (VPORD). Therefore, signal POR, which forces the other blocks of the device into reset,
is kept high until VDD exceeds VPORD. The MCU will run the start-up sequence after POR deassertion.
The power-on reset is active in all operation modes of VREG_3V3.
23.4.10.2 Low-Voltage Reset (LVR)
23.4.11 Interrupts
This section describes all interrupts originated by VREG_3V3.
The interrupt vectors requested by VREG_3V3 are listed in
Table 23-13. Vector addresses and interrupt
priorities are dened at MCU level.
