Description
The A6150 offers a high level of integration by combining
voltage regulation, voltage monitoring and software
monitoring in an 8 lead package. The voltage regulator
has a low dropout voltage (typ. 380 mV at 100 mA) and a
low quiescent current (175 µA). The quiescent current
increases only slightly in dropout prolonging battery life.
Built-in protection includes a positive transient absorber for
up to 60 V (load dump) and the ability to survive an
unregulated input voltage of –20 V (reverse battery). The
input may be connected to ground or a reverse voltage
without reverse current flow from the output to the input. A
comparator monitors the voltage applied at the VIN input
comparing it with an internal 1.52 V reference. The power-
on reset function is initialized after VIN reaches 1.52 V and
takes the reset output inactive after TPOR depending of
external resistance. The reset output goes active low when
the VIN voltage is less than 1.52 V. 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. 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.
