| WAKEREASON_POWER_ON | 0 | Powered on (cold boot) |
| WAKEREASON_TIMER | 1 | Woken after sleep time expired |
| WAKEREASON_SW_RESET | 2 | Restarted due to a software reset (eg. with imp.reset()) or an out-of-memory error occurred |
| WAKEREASON_PIN | 3 | Woken by wakeup pin going high |
| WAKEREASON_NEW_SQUIRREL | 4 | Restarted due to new Squirrel code being loaded |
| WAKEREASON_SQUIRREL_ERROR | 5 | Restarted due to a Squirrel run-time error |
| WAKEREASON_NEW_FIRMWARE | 6 | Restarted due to a firmware upgrade |
| WAKEREASON_SNOOZE | 7 | Woken from a snooze-and-retry event |
| WAKEREASON_HW_RESET | 8 | Restarted by RESET_L pin (imp003 and above only) |
