ELM382
50 Hz Long Interval Counter
Description
The ELM382 is a digitally configurable, multi-
stage counter circuit in a single 8 pin package. When
connected to a 50Hz source, four time periods from
one hour to one week are possible, as shown in
Table 1 below.
Although the circuit has been optimized for a
50Hz input frequency, it is capable of being operated
over a very wide range of frequencies. Of particular
interest is the ability to interface directly to very low
frequencies with varying waveforms due to the use
of a Schmitt trigger input circuit.
The ELM382 provides two outputs – a standard
50% duty cycle divider output, and a momentarily
pulsed output. The pulse output is useful for audibly
or visually signalling the beginning of a time period,
or as a trigger for other circuitry. Refer to the
Example Applications section for two typical circuits.
Applications
• Long term (daily or weekly) event timers
• Missing event detectors
• Automatic shutoff circuits
Features
• Low power CMOS design - typically 1mA at 5V
• Wide supply range – 3.0 to 5.5 volt operation
• Digitally selectable delays
• Schmitt trigger circuitry on the clock input
• Completely static operation
• Long term accuracy with line frequency clock
• High current drive outputs – up to 25 mA
• Reset input provided with a pullup resistor
