SPC81A1
6.13. Power Savings Mode
The SPC81A1 provides a power savings mode (Standby mode)
for those applications that require very low stand-by current. To
enter standby mode, the Wake-Up Register should be enabled
and then stop the CPU clock by writing the STOP CLOCK
Register. The CPU will then go to the stand-by mode. In such a
mode, RAM and I/Os will remain in their previous states until being
awakened.
Port IOD7-0 is the only wake-up source in the
SPC81A1. After the SPC81A1 is awakened, the internal CPU
will go to the RESET State (Tw ≧ 65536 x T1) and then continue
processing the program. Wakeup Reset will not affect RAM or
I/Os (FIG.1).

6.14. Low Voltage Reset
The SPC81A1 provides a Low Voltage Reset (LVR) function.
Below the minimum power-supply voltage of 2.2V, the CPU
system will become unstable and malfunction.
Low Voltage
Reset will reset all functions into the initial operational (stable)
state if the VDD power-supply voltage drops below 2.2V (See
FIG.2).
