X40020_06 Datasheet, PDF (3/24 Pages) Intersil Corporation – Dual Voltage Monitor with Integrated CPU Supervisor and System Battery Switch
X40020, 40021
Low VCC detection circuitry protects the user’s system
from low voltage conditions, resetting the system
when VCC falls below the minimum VTRIP1 point.
RESET/RESET is active until VCC returns to proper
operating level and stabilizes. A second voltage moni-
tor circuit tracks the unregulated supply to provide a
power fail warning or monitors different power supply
voltage. Three common low voltage combinations are
available. However, Intersil’s unique circuits allows the
threshold for either voltage monitor to be repro-
grammed to meet specific system level requirements
or to fine-tune the threshold for applications requiring
higher precision.
A manual reset input provides debounce circuitry for
minimum reset component count.
A battery switch circuit compares VCC with VBATT input
and connects VOUT to whichever is higher. This pro-
vides voltage to external SRAM or other circuits in the
event of main power failure. The X40020/21 can drive

50mA from VCC to 250µA from VBATT. The device only
switches to VBATT when VCC drops below the low VCC
voltage threshold and VBATT.
The Watchdog Timer provides an independent protec-
tion mechanism for microcontrollers. When the micro-
controller fails to restart a timer within a selectable
time out interval, the device activates the WDO signal.
The user selects the interval from three preset values.
Once selected, the interval does not change, even
after cycling the power.
The device features an 2-wire interface and software
protocol allowing operation on a two-wire bus.
The device utilizes Intersil’s proprietary Direct Write™
cell, providing a minimum endurance of 100,000
cycles and a minimum data retention of 100 years.

PIN DESCRIPTION
Pin Name
Function
1
V2FAIL V2 Voltage Fail Output. This open drain output goes LOW when V2MON is less than VTRIP2 and
goes HIGH when V2MON exceeds VTRIP2. There is no power-up reset delay circuitry on this pin.
2
V2MON V2 Voltage Monitor Input. When the V2MON input is less than the VTRIP2 voltage, V2FAIL goes
LOW. This input can monitor an unregulated power supply with an external resistor divider or can
monitor a second power supply with no external components. Connect V2MON to VSS or VCC when
not used.
3 LOWLINE Early Low VCC Detect. This open drain output signal goes LOW when VCC < VTRIP1.
When VCC > VTRIP1, this pin is pulled high with the use of an external pull up resistor.
4
WDO WDO Output. WDO is an active LOW, open drain output which goes active whenever the watchdog
timer goes active.
5
MR
Manual Reset Input. Pulling the MR pin LOW initiates a system reset. The RESET/RESET pin will
remain HIGH/LOW until the pin is released and for the tPURST thereafter. It has an internal pull up
resistor.
6 RESET/ RESET Output. (X40021) This open drain pin is an active LOW output which goes LOW whenever
RESET
VCC falls below VTRIP1 voltage or if manual reset is asserted. This output stays active for the pro-
grammed time period (tPURST) on power-up. It will also stay active until manual reset is released and
for tPURST thereafter.
RESET Output. (X40020) This pin is an active HIGH open drain output which goes HIGH whenever
VCC falls below VTRIP1 voltage or if manual reset is asserted. This output stays active for the pro-
grammed time period (tPURST) on power-up. It will also stay active until manual reset is released and
for tPURST thereafter.
