A microcomputer including a functional element for executing an internal reset instruction within the microcomputer, without a usual external reset signal. The internal reset instruction is executed every time a usual power-off instruction is executed. Thus, a power-off signal responding to the power-off instruction is maintained as it is by execution of the internal reset instruction. The microcomputer further includes a functional element for maintaining at least the level of a power-off signal until the power is completely cut off.
