mP Supervisory Circuit
General Description
The ILC1232 is a multifunction circuit which monitors micro-
processor activity, external reset and power supplies in
microprocessor based systems. The circuit functions
include a watchdog timer, power supply monitor, micro-
processor reset, and manual pushbutton reset input.
The power supply line is monitored with a comparator and
an internal voltage reference. RST is forced low when an
out-of-tolerance condition exists and remains asserted for
at least 250ms after VCC rises above the threshold voltage
(4.5V or 4.75V). The RST pin will remain logic low with VCC
as low as 1.4V.
The Watchdog input (ST) monitors mP activity and will
assert RST if no mP activity has occurred within the watch-
dog timeout period. The watchdog timeout period is selec-
table with nominal periods of 150, 600, or 1200 milliseconds.
