When the device enters Tracking mode, it is no longer possible to operate at full speed. To
provide information on when the device enters Tracking mode, the on-chip regulator includes a
simple, Low-Voltage Detect circuit. When VDD drops below full-speed operating voltage, the
circuit sets the Low-Voltage Detect Interrupt Flag, LVDIF. This can be used to generate an
interrupt and put the application into a low-power operational mode or trigger an orderly
shutdown. Low-Voltage Detection is only available when the regulator is enabled. If V
DD drops
below minimum Tracking mode voltage, a Brown-out Reset will be generated. Refer to the
Electrical Characteristics section of the specific device data sheet to find the LVD trip point and
the BOR trip point.
