General Description
The MIC1832 is a multifunction circuit which monitors mi-
croprocessor activity, external reset and power supplies in
microprocessor based systems. The circuit functions include
a watchdog time, power supply monitor, microprocessor 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
(2.55V or 2.88V). The /RST pin will remain logic low with
VCC as low as 1.4V.
The Watchdog input (/ST) monitors µP activity and will as-
sert /RST if no µP activity has occurred with in the watchdog
timeout period. The watchdog timeout period is selectable
with nominal period of 150, 600, 1200 milliseconds.
Features
• Power OK/Resettime delay, 250ms min.
• Watchdog timer, 150ms, 600ms, or 1.2s typical
• Precision supply voltage monitor, select between 5% or
10% of supply voltage
• Avaiable in 8-pin surface mount (SO)
• Debounced External reset input
• Low supply current, <18µA typical
Applications
• Autimotive systems
• Intelligent systems
• Critical microprocessor power monitoring
• Battery powered computers
• Controllers
