Notes :
• This is an example application to limit upper frequency fH of clock pulses sent from the microprocessor.
If the CK cycle sent from the microprocessor exceeds fH, the circuit generates a reset signal.
(The lower frequency has already been set using CT.)
• When a clock pulse such as shown below is sent to terminal CK, a short T2 prevents C2 voltage from reaching the
CK input threshold level ( =: 1.25 V), and will cause a reset signal to be output.
The T1 value can be found using the following formula :
T1=: 0.3 C2R2
where VCC  5 V, T3  3.0 μs, T2  20 μs
