At power-up, the RST/NMI pin is configured in the reset mode. The function of the RST/NMI pins is selected in the watchdog control register WDTCTL. If the RST/NMI pin is set to the reset function, the CPU is held in the reset state as long as the RST/NMI pin is held low. After the input changes to a high state, the CPU starts program execution at the word address stored in the reset vector, 0FFFEh, and the RSTIFG flag is set.
If the RST/NMI pin is configured by user software to the NMI function, a signal edge selected by the WDTNMIES bit generates an NMI interrupt if the NMIIE bit is set. The RST/NMI flag NMIIFG is also set.
Holding RST/NMI Low
When configured in the NMI mode, a signal generating an NMI event should not hold the RST/NMI pin low. If a PUC occurs from a different source while the NMI signal is low, the device will be held in the reset state because a PUC changes the RST/NMI pin to the reset function.
Modifying WDTNMIES
When NMI mode is selected and the WDTNMIES bit is changed, an NMI can be generated, depending on the actual level at the RST/NMI pin. When the NMI edge select bit is changed before selecting the NMI mode, no NMI is generated.
