What does Debug->Reset CPU actually do?

I think for resetting peripherals, you need to do a System Reset. And what the System Reset does will vary with the target.

Thanks

Is there a list of the actions taken when you select Debug->Reset CPU? For example, peripheral registers cleared, etc.? Does it change based on target (I am working with C6747)?

I can't answer for your target, but as an example: on 28x devices a debugger reset will reset peripherals, core registers, most everything except for some of the clocking registers - like the PLL setup.

Ki,

I agree, but I am more curious about what the CPU->Reset CPU actually does rather than "is this good enough." I am sure I have seen it modify the contents of some memory and/or registers, but I have no clue as to how extensive it is.

Make sure to check the GEL file to see what is being done in the OnReset() callback
