M34116C1 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended operating voltage range for the M34116C1?
  The recommended operating voltage range for the M34116C1 is 2.7V to 5.5V, although it can tolerate a voltage range of 2.5V to 6.0V for short periods.
• How do I ensure the M34116C1 is properly reset during power-up?
  To ensure proper reset, connect the RESET pin to VCC through a 10kΩ resistor and a 100nF capacitor to GND. This will provide a clean reset signal during power-up.
• What is the maximum clock frequency supported by the M34116C1?
  The M34116C1 can operate up to a maximum clock frequency of 16 MHz, but it's recommended to use a clock frequency of 8 MHz or lower for optimal performance and power consumption.
• How do I configure the M34116C1 for low-power mode?
  To configure the M34116C1 for low-power mode, set the PWRDWN bit in the Power Management Register (PMR) to 1. This will reduce the power consumption to a minimum.
• What is the purpose of the BOR (Brown-Out Reset) pin?
  The BOR pin is used to detect voltage drops and reset the device when the supply voltage falls below a certain threshold (typically 2.2V). This helps prevent the device from operating erratically or unpredictably during power dips.
