Hi:
In our project,we found RESET_OUT pin has twice reset,as shown in the following figure. Please help to confirm whether this waveform is correct?and why the pin “RESET_OUT” has twice reset?
Thank you!

Hi,
Welcome to E2E! I cannot tell the time scale from this image, but this toggle could happen if you are doing a warm reset. Do you know if the NRESWARM pin was initiating a warm reset to the system?
If this is the case, the RESET_OUT is set to complete a toggle during the warm reset to satisfy an errata listed for the Jacinto 6 processors. In the Jacinto 6 errata documentation, the processor requires a toggle on PORz to ensure that it doesn't get stuck (i862 in the errata documentation).
Let me know if this warm reset may be what you are observing.
Thanks,

Hi,
Can you also try measuring LDOVRTC, POWERHOLD (GPIO_7), and RESET_IN?
Also, do you know if the output rails (SMPS and LDOs) are staying high during this time?
Thanks,

Hi,
Does this only happen at startup? If so, how is VIO_IN powered? It looks like this toggle may be occurring while the OTP settings are loading. To prevent this, VIO_IN should be supplied after VCC1.
Thanks,

Hi,
Okay, thanks this looks okay. Hmm, can you also verify POWERHOLD (GPIO_7) remains high during the RESET_OUT toggle? The scope shot you have of POWERHOLD with RESET_IN is too zoomed in to see whether it toggles at the point RESET_OUT does. Also, is PWRON doing anything during the RESET_OUT toggle, or only remains high?
Is RESET_OUT connected to anything besides the PORz of the processor? It is a push-pull signal, so it shouldn't need any pull up resistors.
Thanks,
Nastasha
Hi:
Yes,POWERHOLD (GPIO_7) remains high during the RESET_OUT toggle.PWRON is float with nothing connection.
RESET_OUT is connected to PORZ and RTC_ISO of the processor. And RESET_OUT doesn't have pull up resistors in our application.
Hi,
I am really surprised if no other digital rails of the PMIC are changing during the RESET_OUT toggle. Have you checked if any interrupts are being set? Can you read the INTx_STATUS registers through I2C?
Thanks,
Nastasha
