Hi, You can go through the datasheet to get this info.Whether its there are not depends on your software.Incase you find a reset vector support in your chipset,find out from your code whether any handler has been attached to this vector.Also find out how your software is going to utilise this.We use 5516 chipset and use a watchdog to trigger this reset vector. You may be able to see one like that in your case too. Regards, s.subbarayan
