The four outputs are a low drop 10V at 125mA (VO1), a 8.5V at 250mA (VO2), a 5V at 200mA (VO3) and a low drop 5V st-by line at 100mA (VO4). The IC includes a monitoring circuit to warn if a low voltage or no voltage condition is occurring. VO1,2,3 are off during st-by mode. ORDERING NUMBER: L4946B The STCAP pin allows the battery voltage to decay slowly giving the µP time to store data. This IC is designed for supplying microcomputer controlled systems specially in automotive applications.

As the output loading is increasing the current supplied by the L4946 increases until a threshold is reached. When the current limiting threshold is reached, the L4946 output current will start to accrease as the loading is continuoing to increase. The point where the output current stort to decrease is the maximum output current. 5/9 L4946 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The L4946 includes a monitoring circuit to warn the microprocessor if a low voltage or no voltage condition is occurring. Between 7V and 8V on the STCAP pin, the LVW output will go low. This tells the microprocessor to stop executing code and save vital information. The reset output will go low when V04 drops 0.15V below it’s typical reading. A reset will occur between a minimum of 4.5 and a maximum of 5V on V04. The reset output will go low when V04 drops 0.15 below it’s typical value. A reset will occur between a minimum of 4.5V and a maximum of 5V on V04. When the V04 drops between 4.5 and 5V the RESET output goes low. It is very important that the RESET output doesn’t go above 0.75V until the V04 output has gone back above 4.75V (typical). The microprocessor looks for a rising edge. So, any spike will tell the microprocessor to start operating. Once the STCAP line passes 7.5V (typical), the LVW output will also return to high state.

Due to the large capacitor (470µF), the STCAP pin allows the battery voltage to decay slowly giving the microprocessor time to store data. Also, during short low voltage or negative voltage conditions, the STCAP pin protects the 5V st-by output from dropping below the RESET and LVW trip points The four outputs are expected to follow the battery voltage down to 7V. At 7V typical the LVW tells the microprocessor to stop operation and save operating data Below 7V the outputs are expected to stay alive and ready for a return of battery. The L4946 has a st-by mode to keep the microprocessor and memories allive during an ignition off conditions. The ON/OFF input pin in controlled by the microprocessor. An high on the ON/OFF pin places the part in normal mode. A low on the ON/OFF pin places the part in st-by mode.V01, V02, V03 will be off during st-by mode.
