19-3139; Rev 4; 12/05 Nanopower µP Supervisory Circuits with Manual Reset and Watchdog Timer Features The MAX6854/MAX6855/MAX6856/MAX6858/MAX6860– MAX6869 ultra-low-current (170nA, typ) microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuits combine voltage monitoring, watchdog timer, and manual reset input functions in a 5pin SOT23 package. These devices assert a reset signal whenever the monitored voltage drops below the factorytrimmed reset threshold voltage, manual reset is asserted, or the watchdog timer expires. The reset output remains asserted for a minimum timeout period after VCC rises above the reset threshold and manual reset is deasserted. Factory-trimmed reset threshold voltages are offered from +1.575V to +4.625V in approximately 100mV increments (see the Threshold Suffix Guide). Each device is offered with six minimum reset timeout options, ranging from 10ms to 1200ms. The MAX6854/MAX6855/MAX6856/MAX6858/MAX6860– MAX6869 are offered in a variety of configurations (see the Selector Guide). The MAX6854/MAX6855/MAX6856/ MAX6861–MAX6869 provide a manual reset input, MR. The MAX6864–MAX6869 offer a watchdog timer that monitors activity at the WDI input to prevent code execution errors. The MAX6864–MAX6869 offer watchdog timeout options of 3.3s or 209s (typ). The MAX6861/ MAX6862/MAX6863 feature a pin-selectable reset delay period of 10ms or 150ms (min). Push-pull active-low, push-pull active-high, and open-drain active-low reset outputs are available. ♦ Ultra-Low 170nA (typ) Supply Current ♦ Reset Thresholds from +1.575V to +4.625V in Approximately 100mV Increments ♦ Six Minimum Reset Timeout Period Options from 10ms to 1200ms ♦ Manual Reset Option Applications MP3 Players/Pagers Glucose Monitors/Patient Monitors Typical Operating Circuit VCC 0.1µF VCC MR µP WDI GND Ordering Information PART† TEMP RANGE PIN-PACKAGE -40°C to +85°C 5 SOT23-5 Note: Sample stock is generally held on standard versions only (see Table 5, Standard Versions Table).

Figure 3. Detailed Watchdog Input Timing Relationship Detailed Description RESET/RESET Output A µP’s reset input starts the µP in a known state. The MAX6854/MAX6855/MAX6856/MAX6858/MAX6860– MAX6869 µP supervisory circuits assert a reset to prevent code-execution errors during power-up, power-down, and brownout conditions. The MAX6854/MAX6855/MAX6856/ MAX6858/MAX6860–MAX6869 reset output is guaranteed to be valid for VCC down to 1.1V. Whenever VCC falls below the reset threshold, the reset output asserts low for RESET and high for RESET. Once V CC exceeds the reset threshold, an internal timer keeps the reset output asserted for the specified reset timeout period, then after this interval the reset output deasserts (see Figure 2). Manual Reset Input Many µP-based products require manual reset capability, allowing the operator, a test technician, or external logic circuitry to initiate a reset. The MAX6854/ MAX6855/MAX6856/MAX6861–MAX6869 feature an MR input. A logic low on MR asserts a reset. Reset remains asserted while MR is low and for the timeout period, tRP, after MR returns high. The devices provide an internal 10kΩ pullup from MR to VCC. Leave MR unconnected or connect to VCC if unused. MR can be driven with CMOS logic levels or with open-drain/collector outputs. Connect a normally open momentary switch from MR to GND to implement a manual reset function; external debounce circuitry is not required. If MR is driven by long cables or the device is used in a noisy environment, connect a 0.1µF capacitor from MR to GND to provide additional noise immunity. Watchdog Input The MAX6864–MAX6869’s watchdog timer circuitry monitors the µP’s activity. If the µP does not toggle (low-to-high or high-to-low) the watchdog input (WDI) within the watchdog timeout period (tWDI), reset asserts for the reset timeout period (tRP). The internal timer is cleared when reset asserts, when manual reset is asserted, or by a rising or falling edge on WDI. The watchdog input detects pulses as short as 150ns. While reset is asserted the watchdog timer does not count. As soon as reset deasserts, the watchdog timer resumes counting (Figure 3). Applications Information Selecting the Reset Timeout Period The reset timeout period for the MAX6854/MAX6855/ MAX6856/MAX6858/MAX6860/MAX6864–MAX6869 is fixed (see Table 4). The MAX6861/MAX6862/MAX6863 feature a reset timeout select input, CT. Connect CT according to Table 1 to select between the available 10ms and 150ms (min) reset timeout periods. The timeout period can be changed while a reset timeout period is in progress, but will not update until the reset timeout period has expired. Table 1. MAX6861/MAX6862/MAX6863 Reset Timeout Period Selection CT CONNECTION MIN TYP MAX LOW 10 15 25 HIGH 150 225 300 UNITS ms ______________________________________________________________________________________ 11 MAX6854/MAX6855/MAX6856/MAX6858/MAX6860–MAX6869 VCC MAX6854/MAX6855/MAX6856/MAX6858/MAX6860–MAX6869 Nanopower µP Supervisory Circuits with Manual Reset and Watchdog Timer Transient Immunity In addition to issuing a reset to the µP during power-up, power-down, and brownout conditions, the MAX6854/ MAX6855/MAX6856/MAX6858/MAX6860–MAX6869 are relatively immune to short-duration supply transients, or glitches. The Maximum VCC Transient Duration vs. Reset Threshold Overdrive graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics shows this relationship. The area below the curve of the graph is the region in which these devices typically do not generate a reset pulse. This graph was generated using a falling pulse applied to VCC, starting 100mV above the actual reset threshold, VTH, and ending below this threshold (resetthreshold overdrive). As the magnitude of the transient increases, the maximum allowable pulse width decreases. Typically, a 100mV VCC transient duration of 40µs or less does not cause a reset. Interfacing to Other Voltages for Logic Compatibility The open-drain RESET output can be used to interface to a µP with other logic levels. As shown in Figure 4, the open-drain output can be connected to voltages from 0 to 5.5V. Generally, the pullup resistor connected to RESET connects to the supply voltage that is being monitored at the IC’s VCC input. However, some systems use the 1.8V open-drain output to level-shift from the monitored supply to reset circuitry powered by another supply voltage. Keep in mind that as the supervisor’s VCC decreases, so does the IC’s ability to sink current at RESET. Ensuring a Valid RESET Down to VCC = 0V (Push-Pull RESET) When VCC falls below 1.1V, RESET’s current-sinking capability declines drastically. The high-impedance CMOS logic inputs connected to RESET can drift to undetermined voltages. This presents no problems in most applications, since most µPs and other circuitry do not operate with VCC below 1.1V. In those applications where RESET must be valid down to 0, add a pulldown resistor between RESET and GND for the MAX6854/MAX6858/MAX6861/MAX6864/ MAX6867 push-pull outputs. The resistor sinks any stray leakage currents, holding RESET low (Figure 5). Choose a pulldown resistor that accommodates leakages, such that RESET is not significantly loaded and is capable of pulling to GND. The external pulldown cannot be used with the open-drain reset outputs.

This technique avoids a stuck loop, in which the watchdog timer would continue to be reset inside the loop, keeping the watchdog from timing out. Figure 6 shows an example of a flow diagram where the I/O driving the watchdog input is set high at the beginning of the program, set low at the beginning of every subroutine or loop, then set high again when the program returns to the beginning. If the program should hang in any subroutine, the problem would quickly be corrected, since the I/O is continually set low and the watchdog timer is allowed to time out, causing a reset or interrupt to be issued.
