3.1 System Reset and Initialization
3.1.1 Introduction
The MSP430 system reset circuitry (shown in Figure 3–1) sources two internal
reset signals: power-on reset (POR) and power-up clear (PUC). Different
events trigger these reset signals and different initial conditions exist
depending on which signal was generated.

A POR is a device reset. It is only generated by the two following events:
Powering up the device
A low signal on the RST/NMI pin when configured in the reset mode
A PUC is always generated when a POR is generated, but a POR is not
generated by a PUC. The following events trigger a PUC:
A POR signal
Watchdog timer expiration (in watchdog mode only)
Watchdog timer security key violation
A low signal on the RST/NMI pin when configured in the NMI mode
A Flash memory security key violation
Note:
If desired, software can cause a PUC by simply writing to the watchdog timer
control register with an incorrect password.
