Figure 66. Autolatch Equivalent Circuit
Design Considerations
For circuits in which the autolatch is active, consideration should be given
to the loading constraints of the autolatches. For example, with weak val-
ues of VIN, close to Vih (min) or Vil (max), pullup or pull-down resis-
tances must be calculated using Ref = R/Rp. For best case STOP mode
operation, the inputs should be within 200 mV of the supply rails.
In output mode, if a port bit is forced into a tri-state condition, the auto-
latches will force the pad to VDD. If there is an external pulldown resistor
on the pin, the voltage at the pin may not switch to GND due to the auto-
latch. As shown in Figure 67, the equivalent resistance of the autolatch
and the external pulldown form a voltage divider, and if the external resis-
tor is large, the voltage developed across it will exceed VIL(max). For
worst case.
VIL(max > VDD [REXT ÷ (REXT + RP)]
REXT(max) = [(VIL(max) ÷ VDD) RP] ÷ [1—(VIL(max) ÷ VDD)]
For VDD = 5.0 V and IAO = 5 µA, VIH(max) = 0.8 V:
REXT(max) = (0.16 ÷ 1M) ÷ (1—0.16) = 190 KΩ.
