Figure 12-3. Power-up and Powerdown Sequence When Using an External Interrupt
When using an external interrupt signal to exit powerdown mode, we recommend that you con-
nect the external component shown in Figure 12-4 to the RPD pin. The discharging of the capac-
itor causes a delay that allows the oscillator and phase-locked loop circuitry to stabilize before
the internal CPU and peripheral clocks are enabled.
