Resetting the V_TRIPx Voltage
To reset a V_TRIPx voltage, apply the programming volt-
age (Vp) to the WDO pin before a START condition is
set up on SDA. Next, issue on the SDA pin the Slave
Address A0h followed by the Byte Address 03h for
V_TRIP1 and 0Bh for V_TRIP2, followed by 00h for the Data
Byte in order to reset V_TRIPx. The STOP bit following a
valid write operation initiates the programming
sequence. Pin WDO must then be brought LOW to
complete the operation.
After being reset, the value of V_TRIPx becomes a nominal
value of 1.7V or lesser.
Note: This operation does not corrupt the registers.
System Battery Switch
As long as V_CC exceeds the low voltage detect thresh-
old V_TRIP, V_OUT is connected to V_CC through a 5Ω (typi-
cal) switch. When the V_CC has fallen below V1_TRIP,
then V_CC is applied to V_OUT if V_CC is or equal to or
greater than V_BATT - 0.03V. When V_CC drops to less
than V_BATT - 0.03V, then V_OUT is connected to V_BATT
through an 80Ω (typical) switch. V_OUT typically supplies
the system static RAM voltage, so the switchover circuit
operates to protect the contents of the static RAM dur-
ing a power failure. Typically, when V_CC has failed, the
SRAMs go into a lower power state and draw much less
current than in their active mode. When V_CC returns,
V_OUT switches back to V_CC when V_CC exceeds V_BATT +
0.03V. There is a 60mV hysteresis around this battery
switch threshold to prevent oscillations between sup-
plies.
While V_CC is connected to V_OUT the BATT-ON pin is
pulled LOW. The signal can drive an external PNP tran-
sistor to provide additional current to the external circuits
during normal operation.

Control Register
The Control Register provides the user a mechanism for
changing the Block Lock and Watchdog Timer settings.
The Block Lock and Watchdog Timer bits are nonvolatile
and do not change when power is removed.
The Control Register is accessed with a special pream-
ble in the slave byte (1011) and is located at address
1FFh. It can only be modified by performing a byte write
operation directly to the address of the register and only
one data byte is allowed for each register write operation.
Prior to writing to the Control Register, the WEL and
RWEL bits must be set using a two step process, with
the whole sequence requiring 3 steps. See "Writing to
the Control Registers" on page 8.
The user must issue a stop, after sending this byte to the
register, to initiate the nonvolatile cycle that stores WD1,
WD0, PUP1, and PUP0. The X40020 will not acknowl-
edge any data bytes written after the first byte is entered.
The state of the Control Register can be read at any time
by performing a random read at address 01Fh, using the
special preamble. Only one byte is read by each register
read operation. The master should supply a stop condi-
tion to be consistent with the bus protocol, but a stop is
not required to end this operation.

Operation
The device is in normal operation with V_CC as long as
V_CC > V_TRIP1. It switches to the battery backup mode
when V_CC goes away.
RWEL: Register Write Enable Latch (Volatile)
The RWEL bit must be set to “1” prior to a write to the
Control Register.
