PRODUCTION DATA
When the device is powered up, the power-on reset (POR) resets all registers to a default state as well as resets all state machines and dividers. For the power on reset state, all SYSREF outputs are disabled and all the dividers are bypassed and the device performs as a 4-output buffer. Wait approximately 100 µs after the power supply rails before programming other registers to ensure that this reset is finished. The device will function properly if the power-on reset happens when no device clock is present, but the current will change after an input clock is inserted.
It is also possible and generally good practice to do a software power on reset by writing RESET = 1 in the SPI bus. The RESET bit will self-clear when the user writes to any other register. The SPI bus can be used to override these states to the desired settings.
Although the device does have an automatic power on reset, the can be impacted by different ramp rates on the different supply pins, especially in the presence of a strong input clock signal. TI therefore recommends to do a software reset after POR. This can be done by programming RESET = 1. The reset bit can be cleared by programming any other register or setting RESET back to 0. Even at the maximum allowed SPI bus speed, the software reset event always completes before the subsequent SPI write.
