Description
The digital window watchdog timer, U5020M, is a CMOS integrated circuit. In applications where safety is critical, it is especially important to monitor the microcontroller.
Normal microcontroller operation is indicated by a cyclically transmitted trigger signal,
which is received by a window watchdog timer within a defined time window.
A missing or a wrong trigger signal causes the watchdog timer to reset the microcontroller. The IC is tailored for microcontrollers which can work in both full-power and
sleep mode. With an additional voltage monitoring (power-on reset and supply voltage
drop reset), the U5020M offers a complete monitoring solution for microsystems in
automotive and industrial applications.

Functional
Description
Supply, Pin 13
The U5020M requires a stabilized supply voltage VDD = 5 V ±5% to comply with its electrical characteristics.
An external buffer capacitor of C = 10 nF may be connected between pin 13 and GND.
RC Oscillator, Pin 15
The clock frequency, f, can be adjusted by the components R1 and C1 according to the
formula:
1
f = --t
where t = 1.35 + 1.57 R1 (C1 + 0.01)
R1 in kW, C1 in nF and t in µs
The clock frequency determines all time periods of the logic part as shown in the table
“Electrical Characteristics” under the subheading “Timing” on page 8. With an appropriate component selection, the clock frequency, f, is nearly independent of the supply
voltage as shown in Figure 3 on page 4.
Frequency tolerance Dfmax = 10% with R1 ±1%, C1 = ±5%

Monitoring, Pin 10
The integrated power-on reset (POR) circuitry sets the internal logic to a defined basic
status and generates a reset pulse at the reset output, pin 10, during ramp-up of the
supply voltage and in the case of voltage drops of the supply. A hysteresis in the POR
threshold prevents the circuit from oscillating. During ramp-up of the supply voltage, the
reset output stays active for a specified period of time (t0) in order to bring the microcontroller in its defined reset status (see Figure 4). Pin 10 has an open-drain output.
Switch-over Mode Time,
Pin 12
The switch-over mode time enables the synchronous operation of microcontroller and
watchdog. When the power-up reset time has elapsed, the watchdog has to be switched
to monitoring mode by the microcontroller by a “low” signal transmitted to the mode pin
(pin 12) within the time-out period, t1. If the low signal does not occur within t1, (see Figure 4) the watchdog generates a reset pulse, t 6 , and the time, t 1 , starts again.
Microcontroller and watchdog are synchronized with the switchover mode time, t1, each
time a reset pulse is generated.

Microcontroller in Active Mode
Monitoring with the “Short”
Trigger Window
After the switch-over mode the watchdog operates in short watchdog mode and expects
a trigger pulse from the microcontroller within the defined time window, t3, (enable time).
The watchdog generates a reset pulse which resets the microcontroller if
•
the trigger pulse duration is too long
•
the trigger pulse is within the disable time, t2
•
there is no trigger pulse
Figure 5 shows the pulse diagram with a missing trigger pulse.

Trigger
Figure 6 on page 6 shows a correct trigger sequence. The positive edge of the trigger
signal starts a new monitoring cycle with the disable time, t2. To ensure correct operation of the microcontroller, the watchdog needs to be triggered three times correctly
before it sets its enable output. This feature is used to activate or deactivate safety-critical components which have to be switched to a certain condition (emergency status) in
the case of a microcontroller malfunction. As soon as there is an incorrect trigger
sequence, the enable signal is reset and it takes a sequence of three correct triggers
before enable is reset.
Microcontroller in Sleep Mode
Monitoring with the “Long”
Trigger Window
The long watchdog mode allows cyclical wake-up of the microcontroller during sleep
mode. As in short watchdog mode, there is a disable time, t4, and an enable time, t5, in
which a trigger signal is accepted. The watchdog can be switched from the short trigger
window to the long trigger window with a “high” potential at the mode pin (pin 12). In
contrast to the short watchdog mode, the time periods are now much longer and the
enable output remains inactive so that other components can be switched off to effect a
further decrease in current consumption. As soon as a wake-up signal at one of the 6
wake up inputs (pins 3 to 8) is detected, the long watchdog mode ends, a reset pulse
wakes-up the sleeping microcontroller and the normal monitoring cycle starts with the
mode switch-over time.
By means of a low or high potential at pin 16 (time switch), two values for the long
watchdog time can be selected.

Application Hint
In order to prevent the IC from an undesired reset output signal which may be caused by
transcients on the supply under certain conditions, a PC board connection from pin 2 to
GND is strongly recommended.
Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating
only and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of this
specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
