The watchdog timer can also initiate a reset.
Refer to the Watchdog Input section.
The SP804T/S/R and SP805T/S/R active-HIGH
RESET output is open drain and the inverse
of the SP690T/S/R and SP802T/S/R RESET
outputs.
RESET is also triggered by a watchdog timeout.
If WDI remains either high or low for a period
that exceeds the watchdog timeout period (1.6
sec), RESET pulses low for 200mS. As long as
RESET is asserted, the watchdog timer remains
cleared. When RESET comes high, the watch-
dog resumes timing and must be serviced within
1.6sec. If WDI is tied high or low, a RESET
pulse is triggered every 1.8sec (t_WD plus t_RS).
Reset Threshold
The SP690T and SP805T devices are designed
for 3.3V systems with a ±5% power-supply
tolerance and a 10% system tolerance. Except
for watchdog faults, reset will not assert as long
as the power supply remains above 3.15V (3.3V
- 5%). Reset is guaranteed to assert before the
power supply falls below 3.0V.
The SP690S and SP805S devices are designed
for 3.3V ±10% power supplies. Except for
watchdog faults, they are guaranteed not to
assert reset as long as the supply remains above
3.0V (3.3V - 10%). Reset is guaranteed to
assert before the power supply fails below 2.85V
(V_CC - 14%).
The SP690R and SP805R devices are optimized
for monitoring 3.0V ±10% power supplies. Reset
will not occur until V_CC falls below 2.7V (3.0V
- 10%), but is guaranteed to occur before the
supply falls below 2.55V (3.0V - 15%).
The SP802T/S/R and SP804T/S/R devices are
respectively similar to the SP690T/S/R and
SP805T/S/R devices with tightened reset
and power-fail threshold tolerances.
Watchdog Input
The watchdog circuit monitors the µP's activity.
If the µP does not toggle the watchdog input
(WDI) within 1.6sec, a reset pulse is triggered.
The internal 1.6sec timer is cleared by either a
reset pulse or by a transition (LOW-to-HIGH or
HIGH-to-LOW) at WDI. If WDI is tied HIGH
or LOW, a RESET pulse is triggered every
1.8sec (t_WD plus t_RS).
As long as reset is asserted, the timer remains
cleared and does not count. As soon as reset is
de-asserted, the timer starts counting. Unlike
the 5V SP690A series, the watchdog function
cannot be disabled.
Power-Fail Comparator
The power-fail comparator can be used as an
under-voltage detector to signal the failing of a
power supply (it is completely separate from the
rest of the circuitry and does not need to be
dedicated to this function). The PFI input is
compared to an internal 1.25V. If PFI is less than
V_PFT, PFO goes low.
The power-fail comparator turns off and PFO
goes LOW when V_CC falls below V_SW on
power-down. The power-fail comparator turns
on as V_CC crosses V_SW on power-up. If the
comparator is not used, connect PFI to ground
and leave PFO unconnected.
Backup-Battery Switchover
In the event of a brownout or power failure, it
may be necessary to preserve the contents of
RAM. With a backup battery installed at
V_BATTERY, the devices automatically switch
RAM to backup power when V_CC fails.
This family of µP supervisors (designed for
3.3V and 3V systems) doesn't always connect
V_BATTERY to V_OUT when V_BATTERY is greater
than V_CC. V_BATTERY connects to V_OUT (through
a 15Ω switch) when V_CC is below V_SW and
V_BATTERY is greater than V_CC.
