OVERVIEW
This device combines four popular functions, Power-on Reset Control, Watchdog Timer, Supply Voltage Supervision, and Block Lock Serial EEPROM Memory in one package. This combination lowers system cost, reduces board space requirements, and increases reliability. Applying power to the device activates the power-on reset circuit which holds RESET
active for a period of time. This allows the power supply and oscillator to stabilize before the processor can execute code. The Watchdog Timer provides an independent protection mechanism for microcontrollers. When the microcontroller fails to restart a timer within a selectable time out interval, the device activates the RESET
signal. The user selects the interval from three preset values. Once selected, the interval does not change, even after cycling the power. The Device's low VCC
detection circuitry protects the user's system from low voltage conditions, resetting the system when VCC
falls below the minimum VCC
trip point. RESET
is asserted until VCC
returns to the proper operating level and stabilizes. Five industry standard VTRIP
thresholds are available, however, Intersil's unique circuits allow the threshold to be reprogrammed to meet custom requirements or to finetune the threshold for applications requiring higher precision.
