ABSTRACT:
An information processing unit selects one of a plurality of reset vector addresses, and executes an instruction in accordance with the reset vector address selected. A reset memory circuit latches after switch-on a predetermined value as a latch value regardless of a reset signal supplied via a reset terminal. When the reset memory circuit has latched the latch value, an address selection circuit selects one of the reset vector addresses in response to a logical AND of the latch value and a selection signal supplied via a selection terminal. The information processing unit can prevent changes in the reset vector address even though the potential at the reset terminal fluctuates slightly after the switch-on.
