cause the system to be reset. The system enable
output prevents critical control functions being
activated until software has successfully cleared the

Description
The A6150 offers a high level of integration by combining
voltage regulation, voltage monitoring and software
monitoring in an 8 lead package. The voltage regulator
has a low dropout voltage (typ. 380 mV at 100 mA) and a
low quiescent current (175 µA). The quiescent current
increases only slightly in dropout prolonging battery life.
Built-in protection includes a positive transient absorber for
up to 60 V (load dump) and the ability to survive an
unregulated input voltage of –20 V (reverse battery). The
input may be connected to ground or a reverse voltage
without reverse current flow from the output to the input. A
comparator monitors the voltage applied at the VIN input
comparing it with an internal 1.52 V reference. The poweron reset function is initialized after VIN reaches 1.52 V and
takes the reset output inactive after TPOR depending of
external resistance. The reset output goes active low when
the VIN voltage is less than 1.52 V. The RES and EN
outputs are guaranteed to be in a correct state for a
regulated output voltage as low as 1.2 V. The watchdog
function monitors software cycle time and execution. If

Handling Procedures
This device has built-in protection against high static
voltages or electric fields; however, anti-static precautions must be taken as for any other CMOS component.
Unless otherwise specified, proper operation can only
occur when all terminal voltages are kept within the
supply voltage range. At any time, all inputs must be tied
to a defined logic voltage level.
Symbol
The maximum operating temperature is confirmed by
sampling at initial device qualification. In production, all
devices are tested at +85 °C. On request devices tested at
+125 °C can be supplied.
Full operation quaranteed. To achieve the load regulation
specified in Table 3 a 22 µF capacitor or greater is
required on the INPUT, see Fig. 18. The 22 µF must have
an effective resistance ≤ 5 Ω and a resonant frequency
above 500 kHz.
A 10 µF load capacitor and a 100 nF decoupling capacitor
are required on the regulator OUTPUT for stability. The
10 µF must have an effective series resistance of ≤ 5 Ω and
a resonant frequency above 500 kHz.
RES and EN (EN only for version A0) must be pulled up
externally to VOUTPUT even if they are unused. (Note: RES
and EN are used as inputs by EM test).
The OUTPUT current will not apply for all possible
combinations of input voltage and output current.
Combinations that would require the A6150 to work above
the maximum junction temperature (+125 °C) must be
avoided.
The thermal resistance specified assumes the package is
soldered to a PCB.

Functional Description
Voltage Regulator
The A6150 has a 5 V ± 2%, 100 mA, low dropout voltage regulator. The low supply current (typ.155 µA) makes the A6150 particularly suited to automotive systems
then remain energized 24 hours a day. The input voltage
range is 2.3 V to 26 V for operation and the input protection includes both reverse battery (20 V below ground)
and load dump (positive transients up to 60 V). There is
no reverse current flow from the OUTPUT to the INPUT
when the INPUT equals VSS. This feature is important for
systems which need to implement (with capacitance) a
minimum power supply hold-up time in the event of
power failure. To achieve good load regulation a 22 µF
capacitor (or greater ) is needed on the INPUT (see
Fig. 18). Tantalum or aluminium electrolytics are adequate
for the 22 µF capacitor; film types will work but are relatively expensive. Many aluminium electrolytics have
electrolytes that freeze at about –30 °C, so tantalums are
recommended for operation below –25 °C. The important parameters of the 22 µF capacitor are an effective series
resistance of ≤ 5 Ω and a resonant frequency
above
500 kHz.
A 10 µF capacitor (or greater) and a 100 nF capacitor are
required on the OUTPUT to prevent oscillations due to
instability. The specification of the 10 µF capacitor is as
per the 22 µF capacitor on the INPUT (see previous
paragraph).
The A6150 will remain stable and in regulation with no
external load and the dropout voltage is typically constant as the input voltage fall to below its minimum level
(see Table 2). These features are especially important in
CMOS RAM keep-alive applications.
Care must be taken not to exceed the maximum junction
temperature (+ 125 °C). The power dissipation within
the A 6150 is given by the formula:
PTOTAL = (VINPUT – VOUTPUT) * IOUTPUT + (VINPUT) * ISS
6
The maximum continuous power dissipation at a given
temperature can be calculated using the formula:
PMAX = ( 125 °C – TA) / Rth(j-a)
where Rth(j-a) is the termal resistance from the junction to
the ambient and is specified in Table 2. Note the Rth(j-a)
given in Table 2 assumes that the package is soldered
to a PCB. The above formula for maximum power dissipation assumes a constant load (ie.≥100 s). The
transient thermal resistance for a single pulse is much
lower than the continuous value. For example the A6150
in DIP8 package will have an effective thermal resistance
from the junction to the ambient of about 10 °C/W for a
single 100 ms pulse.
VIN Monitoring
The power-on reset and the power-down reset are
generated as a response to the external voltage level
applied on the VIN input. The VDD voltage at which reset is
asserted or released is determined by the external
voltage divider between VDD and VSS, as shown on Fig.
18. A part of VDD is compared to the internal voltage
reference. To determine the values of the divider, the
leakage current at VIN must be taken into account as well
as the current consumption of the divider itself. Low
resistor values will need more current, but high resistor
values will make the reset threshold less accurate at
high temperature, due to a possible leakage current at
the VIN input. The sum of the two resistors should stay
below 300 kΩ. The formula is: VRESET = VREF *(1 + R1/R2).
Example: choosing R1 = 100 kΩ and R2 = 51 kΩ will
result in a VDD reset threshold of 4.5 V (typ.).
At power-up the reset output (RES) is held low (see
Fig. 4). After INPUT reaches 3.36 V (and so OUTPUT
reaches at least 3 V) and VIN becomes greater than VREF,
the RES output is held low for an additional power-onreset (POR) delay which is equal to the watchdog time
TWD (typically 100 ms with an external resistor of 123 kΩ
connected at R pin). The POR delay prevents repeated
toggling of RES even if VIN and the INPUT voltage drops
out and recovers. The POR delay allows the microprocessor’s crystal oscillator time to start and stabilize and
ensures correct recognition of the reset signal to the
microprocessor.
The RES output goes active low generating the powerdown reset whenever VIN falls below VREF. The sensitivity or reaction time of the internal comparator to the voltage level on VIN is typically 5 µs.
Timer Programming
The on-chip oscillator with an external resistor REXT connected between the R pin and VSS (see Fig. 18) allows
the user to adjust the power-on reset (POR) delay,
watchdog time TWD and with this also the closed and
open time windows as well as the watchdog reset pulse
width (TWD/40).
With REXT = 123 kΩ typical values are:
-Power-on reset delay: TPOR is 100 ms
-Watchdog time:
TWD is 100 ms
A6150
-Closed window:
TCW is 80 ms
-Open window:
TOW is 40 ms
-Watchdog reset:
TWDR is 2.5 ms
Note the current consumption increases as the frequency increases.
Watchdog Timeout Period Description
The watchdog timeout period is divided into two parts, a
“closed” window and an “open” window (see Fig. 3) and
is defined by two parameters, TWD and the Open Window
Percentage (OWP).
The closed window starts just after the watchdog timer
resets and is defined by TCW = TWD – OWP(TWD).
The open window starts after the closed time window
finishes and lasts till TWD + OWP(TWD).The open window
time is defined by TOW = 2 x OWP (TWD)
For example if TWD = 100 ms (actual value) and OWP =
± 20% this means the closed window lasts during first
the 80 ms (TCW = 80 ms = 100ms – 0.2 (100 ms)) and
the open window the next 40 ms (TOW = 2 x 0.2 (100 ms)
= 40 ms). The watchdog can be serviced between
80 ms and 120 ms after the timer reset. However as the
time base is ± 10% accurate, software must use the
following calculation as the limits for servicing signal TCL
during the open window:
Related to curves (Fig. 10 to Fig. 20), especially Fig. 19
and Fig. 20, the relation between TWD and REXT could
easily be defined. Let us take an example describing the
variations due to production and temperature:
1.Choice, TWD = 26 ms.
2.Related to Fig. 20, the coefficient (TWD to REXT) is
1.155 where REXT is in kΩ and TWD in ms.
3.REXT (typ.) = 26 x 1.155 = 30.0 kΩ.
TWD versus VOUTPUT at TJ = +25 °C

b)
(26 − 10% = 23.4 ms) (26 + 10% = 28.6 ms) a)

(28.6 + 5% = 30.0 ms) b)
min.: (30.0 − 20% = 24.0 ms) max.: (22.2 + 20% = 26.7 ms)
Typical TCL period of
(24.0 + 26.7) / 2 = 25.4 ms
The ratio between TWD = 26 ms and the (TCL period)
= 25.4 ms is 0.975.
Then the relation over the production and the full
temperature range is, TCL period = 0.975 x TWD or
0.975 x REXT

If during your production the TWD time can be measured at TJ = + 25 °C and the µC can adjust the TCL
period, then the TCL period range will be much larger
for the full operating temperature.

TPOR, a pull-up to VDD is required on that pin. After the
POR delay has elapsed, RES goes inactive and the
watchdog timer starts acting. If no TCL pulse occurs,
RES goes active low for a short time TWDR after each
closed and open window period. A TCL pulse coming
during the open window clears the watchdog timer.
When the TCL pulse occurs too early (during the closed
window), RES goes active and a new timeout sequence
starts. A voltage drop below the VREF level for longer than
typically 5µs overrides the timer and immediately forces
RES active and EN inactive. Any further TCL pulse
has no effect until the next power-up sequence has
completed.
Timer Clearing and RES Action
The watchdog circuit monitore the activity of the processor. If the user’s software does not send a pulse to the
TCL input within the programmed open window timeout
period a short watchdog RES pulse is generated which
is equal to TWD /40 = 2.5 ms typically (see Fig. 5).
With the open window constraint new security is added
to conventional watchdogs by monitoring both software
cycle time and execution. Should software clear the
watchdog too quickly (incorrect cycle time) or too slowly
(incorrect execution) it will cause the system to be reset.
If software is stuck in a loop which includes the routine
to clear the watchdog then a conventional watchdog
would not make a system reset even though software is
malfunctioning; the A6150 would make a system reset
because the watchdog would be cleared too quickly.
If no TCL signal is applied before the closed and open
windows expire, RES will start to generate square waves
of period (TCW + TOW + TWDR). The watchdog will remain
in this state until the next TCL falling edge appears
during an open window, or until a fresh power-up sequence. The system enable output, EN , can be used to
prevent critical control functions being activated in the
event of the system going into this failure mode (see
section “Enable-EN Output”).
The RES output must be pulled up to VOUTPUT even if the
output is not used by the system (see Fig 18).
Enable - EN Output
The system enable output, EN ,is inactive always when
RES is active and remains inactive after a RES pulse
until the watchdog is serviced correctly 3 consecutive
times (ie. the TCL pulse must come in the open window). After three consecutive services of the watchdog
with TCL during the open window, the EN goes active
low.
A malfunctioning system would be repeatedly reset by
the watchdog. In a conventional system critical motor
controls could be energized each time reset goes inactive (time allowed for the system to restart) and in this
way the electrical motors driven by the system could
function out of control. The A6150 prevents the above
failure mode by using the EN output to disable the motor
controls until software has successfully cleared the
watchdog three times (ie. the system has correctly restarted after a reset condition).
For the version A0 the EN output must be pulled up to
VOUTPUT even if the output is not used by the system (see
Fig. 18.
Combined Voltage and Timer Action
The combination of voltage and timer actions is illustrated by the sequence of events shown in Fig. 6. On power-up, when the voltage at VIN reaches VREF, the poweron-reset, POR, delay is initialized and holds RES active
for the time of the POR delay. A TCL pulse will have no
effect until this power-on-reset delay is completed. When
the risk exists that TCL temporarily floats, e.g. during
