AN3261 Application note Dual push-button Smart Reset™ devices with user-adjustable setup delays Introduction The Smart Reset™ family of devices consists of several products with a combination of features selected to best suit most typical applications. Their basic common feature is dualbutton reset with setup delay that requires both input reset buttons to be continuously pressed for a defined period of time. This improves system stability compared to simple manual reset button devices and eliminates the need for a traditional reset access hole (e.g. two standard keys on the mobile phone keyboard can be used as Smart Reset™ inputs). Numerous additional features and device options are factory-programmed or can be implemented upon request. Common STM65xx Smart Reset™ family features include: ■ Dual-button Smart Reset™ inputs ■ VCC range 1.0 to 5.5 V (active-low output valid) ■ Industrial operating temperature range –40 °C to +85 °C ■ Space-saving TDFN8 package (2 mm x 2 mm x 0.75 mm) ■ RoHS compliance Differentiating features of the devices are: ■ With or without Power-on Reset (POR) ■ With or without VCC monitoring ■ Independent battery monitoring feature with battery-low warning (STM6505 only) ■ Input logic voltage levels: standard CMOS or fixed threshold ■ Smart Reset™ output characteristics – Defined reset pulse duration or push-button controlled (undefined) reset pulse duration – Reset pulse duration: factory-programmed or capacitor-adjustable – Smart Reset™ delay: tri-state / dual-state / capacitor-adjustable – Open-drain or push-pull reset output – Single or dual reset output September 2010 Doc ID 17837 Rev 1 1/17 www.st.com Contents AN3261 Contents 1 Features . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 2 Typical application diagrams . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 3 2.1 Single-button reset . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 2.2 Dual-button reset . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7 2.3 Multiple-button reset . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 8 2.4 Input pull-up considerations (CMOS/fixed levels) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9 2.5 Output pull-up considerations . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9 2.6 Reliability note . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10 Demonstration boards, promotion tools . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 11 3.1 STM6503 demonstration board . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 11 3.2 STM65xx interposer boards . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 12 3.3 Smartphone demonstration example . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 13 4 Conclusion . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 15 5 Revision history . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16 2/17 Doc ID 17837 Rev 1 AN3261 List of figures List of figures Figure 1.

Both of the Smart Reset™ input buttons must be pressed for a defined tSRC period, only after which an output reset pulse is generated. This results in a robust hardware reset. The reset function can then be assigned to the existing keys of a device, which eliminates the traditional reset hole in the back cover of the device, while maintaining system stability. All the STM65xx family devices have this feature with the exception of the STM6504. ● The edge trigger functionality is a reset input with an immediate reset response and a special debounce feature. Found only on the STM6504 (a device with single-button edge trigger immediate reset and a single-button delayed Smart Reset™ input, independent but with a common reset output). ● VCC monitoring/undervoltage reset. When the monitored VCC voltage drops below the factory-programmed undervoltage reset threshold VRST, the reset output(s) immediately go active and remain so until VCC rises above VRST and hysteresis, plus the defined tREC period. ● Battery-low detection is an additional independent voltage monitoring function with a dedicated battery-low detection output pin. It works as a pure comparator with VREF=1.25 V. STM6505 only. ● Fixed input logic levels are suitable for configurations where the device driving the input buttons (keyboard) is connected to a lower voltage than the supply voltage of the STM65xx device. This is in contrast to the devices with the standard CMOS input logic levels that are relative to VCC and are suitable only for applications in which the device driving the inputs of the Smart Reset™ device is powered by the same voltage supply. Doc ID 17837 Rev 1 AN3261 2 Typical application diagrams Typical application diagrams The STM65xx family of Smart Reset™ products provides a broad variety of options for various types of applications. 2.1 Single-button reset The STM65xx devices allow for different reset input configurations. In simple applications, only one input reset button with delayed reset may be sufficient. In this case, for product options without internal input pull-up resistors, SR0 and SR1 can be either connected together or the unused SR input permanently grounded. In the case of a product version with internal input pull-up resistors, just connect the inputs together. Permanent grounding of the unused SR input would, in this case, cause a continuous current to flow through the pull-up resistor from VCC to VSS. Figure 1. Single-button Smart Reset™ typical application diagram, with “earlywarning” feature, STM6503 VCC VCC RESET RST VCC TSR STM6503 MCU SR1 Early warning SR0 VSS INT/ NMI VSS PUSH-BUTTON SWITCH 1. Early warning feature: the input reset push-button can be also used as an early warning to the processor (through the interrupt input) that a reset may come after the tSRC reset setup delay.

AN3261 Timing diagram - single push-button Smart Reset™ t SRC SR0 SR1 t REC RST 6/17 Doc ID 17837 Rev 1 AN3261 2.2 Typical application diagrams Dual-button reset The most frequent application requires a configuration with two reset buttons which further improves immunity to undesired resets by adding a second input reset button with delayed reset. In this case, the reset pulse occurs only when both the buttons have been pressed and held for the defined tSRC delay. Figure 3.

All of the buttons must then be pressed simultaneously for at least tSRC input delay seconds to get a reset pulse on the STM65xx output. For a configuration with three input reset buttons, connect one button to one SR input as usual and the remaining two buttons to an OR gate and tie its output to the second SR input. Figure 5.

Timing diagram - three push-button Smart Reset™ tSRC Pushbutton 1 Pushbutton 2 Pushbutton 3 tREC RST 2.4 Input pull-up considerations (CMOS/fixed levels) Inputs without internal pull-up resistors can be pulled to a different voltage level than the supply voltage of the STM65xx devices, however: 2.5 ● the input pull-up voltage level should not exceed 5.5 V ● the input logic levels specifications must be respected: – VIHmin = 0.7VCC, VILmax = 0.3VCC in case of standard CMOS input cells (it is recommended to always keep VIL on the ground level and VIH on the VCC level) – VIHmin = 0.85 V, VILmax = 0.3 V in case of the fixed-logic levels devices (STM6520, STM6522). Output pull-up considerations Open-drain RST outputs without internal pull-up resistors can also be pulled up to any voltage independent of VCC (higher or lower than VCC) (but absolute maximum ratings must be respected). The STM65xx devices can thus serve also as a simple level shifter. Doc ID 17837 Rev 1 9/17 Typical application diagrams 2.6 AN3261 Reliability note Devices with timings adjusted by external components vs. environmental considerations For device options with timings (tSRC, tREC) adjusted by an external capacitor, there are several additional factors to be considered that may affect the accuracy of the timings. The given specifications apply to the STM65xx device alone, i.e. with an ideal timing capacitor. External tolerances, temperature dependencies and leakages are excluded. The Smart Reset™ devices are designed to meet strict requirements for the lowest possible current consumption and to maintain the common timing constant 10 s/µF, therefore the constant current used to charge the external timing capacitor is very low, in the magnitude of 100 nA. Any external leakage (e.g. poor quality timing capacitors or excessive humidity, especially if dew-point is exceeded and moisture condensation occurs on the PCB tracks) may cause a significant leakage current which is deducted from the constant charging current that the device provides, reducing the effective external timing capacitor charging current which results in extending the tSRC (tREC) timings. To minimize this effect, the PCB tracks between the SRC (TRECADJ) pin and its respective timing capacitor should be as short as possible, properly covered with solder mask and isolated from other tracks (especially VSS) by as great a distance as possible. Also, low-leakage timing capacitors (ceramic or film capacitor) should be used. 10/17 Doc ID 17837 Rev 1 AN3261 3 Demonstration boards, promotion tools Demonstration boards, promotion tools A complete set of demonstration/promotion tools is available for various purposes, from easy, high-level application functional demonstration, down to tools for detailed testing.
