NCP1232
Microprocessor Monitor
The NCP1232 is a fully–integrated processor supervisor. It provides
three important functions to safeguard processor functionality:
precision power on/off reset control, watchdog timer and external
reset override.
On power–up, the NCP1232 holds the processor in the reset state for
a minimum of 250 msec after VCC is within tolerance to ensure a
stable system start–up.
Microprocessor functionality is monitored by the on–board
watchdog circuit. The microprocessor must provide a periodic
low–going signal on the ST input. Should the processor fail to supply
this signal within the selected time–out period (150 msec, 600 msec or
1200 msec), an out–of–control processor is indicated and the
NCP1232 issues a processor reset as a result.
The outputs of the NCP1232 are immediately driven active when
the PB input is brought low by an external push–button switch or other
electronic signal. When connected to a push–button switch, the
NCP1232 provides contact debounce.
The NCP1232 is packaged in a space–saving 8–pin plastic SOIC
package and requires no external components.
