12.5 Register Description

12.5.1

MCUSR – MCU Status Register

The MCU Status Register provides information on which reset source caused an MCU reset.

• Bit 4 – JTRF: JTAG Reset Flag

This bit is set if a reset is being caused by a logic one in the JTAG Reset Register selected by the JTAG instruction

AVR_RESET. This bit is reset by a Power-on Reset, or by writing a logic zero to the flag.

• Bit 3 – WDRF: Watchdog Reset Flag

This bit is set if a Watchdog Reset occurs. The bit is reset by a Power-on Reset, or by writing a logic zero to the

flag.

• Bit 2 – BORF: Brown-out Reset Flag

This bit is set if a Brown-out Reset occurs. The bit is reset by a Power-on Reset, or by writing a logic zero to the

flag.

• Bit 1 – EXTRF: External Reset Flag

This bit is set if an External Reset occurs. The bit is reset by a Power-on Reset, or by writing a logic zero to the flag.

• Bit 0 – PORF: Power-on Reset Flag

This bit is set if a Power-on Reset occurs. The bit is reset only by writing a logic zero to the flag.

To make use of the Reset Flags to identify a reset condition, the user should read and then Reset the MCUSR as

early as possible in the program. If the register is cleared before another reset occurs, the source of the reset can

be found by examining the Reset Flags.
