Abstract
A reset circuit used for resetting a processing unit of an electronic device includes a switch control unit, a first switch unit, and a reset signal generation unit. The switch control unit controls the on and off state of the first switch unit according to users' operation. The reset signal generation unit outputs a reset signal after the first switch unit has been off for a predetermined time period. The reset signal generation unit stops outputting the reset signal as the first switch unit turns on. The processing unit is reset when receiving the reset signal.
