EM6153
5V Automotive Regulator with Inhibit Input and
Windowed Watchdog
Description
The EM6153 offers a high level of integration by combining
voltage regulation, voltage monitoring and software
monitoring using a windowed watchdog.
A comparator monitors the voltage applied at the VIN input
comparing it with an internal voltage reference VREF. The
power-on reset function is initialized after VIN reaches VREF
and takes the reset output inactive after a delay TPOR
depending on external resistance ROSC. The reset output goes
active low when the VIN voltage is less than VREF. The RES
and EN outputs are guaranteed to be in a correct state for a
regulated output voltage as low as 1.2 V. The watchdog
function monitors software cycle time and execution.
If software clears the watchdog too quickly (incorrect cycle
time) or too slowly (incorrect execution) it will cause the
system to be reset. For enhanced security, the watchdog
must be serviced within an “open” time window. During the
remaining time, the watchdog time window is “closed” and a
reset will occur should a TCL pulse be received by the
watchdog during this “closed” time window. The ratio of the
open/closed window is either 33%/67% or 67%/33%.
The system ENABLE output prevents critical control functions
being activated until software has successfully cleared the
watchdog three times. Such a security could be used to
prevent motor controls being energized on repeated resets of
a faulty system.
When the microcontroller goes in stand-by mode or stops
working, no signal is received on the TCL input and the
EM6153 (version 55) goes into a stand-by mode in order to
save power (CAN-bus sleep detector).
In EM6153, the voltage regulator has a low dropout voltage
and a low quiescent current of 75 μA. The quiescent current
increases only slightly in dropout prolonging battery life. Built-
in protection includes a positive transient absorber for up to
45 V (load dump) and the ability to survive an unregulated
input voltage of -42 V (reverse battery). The input may be
connected to ground or to a reverse voltage without reverse
current flowing from the output to the input.
