3.3.4 V REG capacitance monitor<br />

A monitor circuit is incorporated to ensure predictable operation if the connection to the external V REG capacitor becomes open.<br />

The V REG regulator is disabled t POR_CAPTEST seconds after POR for a duration of t VREGCAPTST_TIME seconds. If the external<br />

capacitor is not present, the regulator voltage will fall below the internal reset threshold, forcing a device reset.<br />
