US 2026/0228148 A1 · ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANAGING RESET SIGNALS

Abstract

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a first master device, a slave device, and a bus state monitor. The slave device is connected to the first master device through a bus. The bus state monitor is connected to the bus. The first master device is configured to transmit an address to the slave device to request to read data in the slave device. The bus state monitor is configured to receive the first reset request signal. The first reset request signal indicates that there is a request to reset the slave device. In response to receiving the first reset request signal, the bus state monitor is configured to prevent a reset signal from being transmitted to the slave device, after the slave device has accepted the request and before the first master device acknowledges the reception of the data transmitted from the slave device.
