Changing the Watchdog and Reset Timeout
The watchdog and reset timeout periods may be controlled us-
ing OSC SEL and OSC IN. Please refer to Table II. With both
these inputs floating (or connected to V
OUT
) as in Figure 16, the
reset timeout is fixed at 200 ms and the watchdog timeout is
fixed at 1.6 sec.. If OSC IN is connected to GND as in Figure
16, the reset timeout period remains at 200 ms but a short
(100 ms) watchdog timeout period is selected (except immedi-
ately following a reset where it reverts to 1.6 sec). By connecting
OSC SEL to GND it is possible to select alternative timeout pe-
riods by either connecting a capacitor from OSC IN to GND or
by overdriving OSC IN with an external clock. With an external
capacitor, the watchdog timeout period is
Twd (ms) = 600 (C/47 pF)
and the reset active period is
Treset (ms) = 1200 (C/47 pF)
With an external clock connected to OSC IN, the timeout
periods become
Twd = 1024 (1/f
CLK
)
Treset = 2048 (1/f
CLK
)
Battery-Switchover Section
During normal operation with V
CC
higher than the reset thresh-
old and higher than V
BATT
, V
CC
is internally switched to V
OUT
via an internal PMOS transistor switch. This switch has a typi-
cal on-resistance of 0.75 Ω and can supply up to 250 mA at the
V
OUT
terminal. V
OUT
is normally used to drive a RAM memory
bank which may require instantaneous currents of greater than
250 mA. If this is the case then a bypass capacitor should be
connected to V
OUT
. The capacitor will provide the peak current
transients to the RAM. A capacitance value of 0.1 µF or greater
may be used.
If the continuous output current requirement at V
OUT
exceeds
250 mA or if a lower V
CC
–V
OUT
voltage differential is desired,
an external PNP pass transistor may be connected in parallel
with the internal transistor. The BATT ON output can drive
the base of the external transistor.
If V
CC
drops below V
BATT
and below the reset threshold, battery
backup is selected. A 7 Ω MOSFET switch connects the V
BATT
input to V
OUT
. This MOSFET has very low input-to-output
differential (dropout voltage) at the low current levels required for
battery backup of CMOS RAM or other low power CMOS cir-
cuitry. The supply current in battery backup is typically 0.04 µA.
High value capacitors, either standard electrolytic or the farad-
size double layer capacitors, can also be used for short-term
memory backup.
If the battery-switchover section is not used, V
BATT
should be
connected to GND and V
OUT
should be connected to V
CC
.
When V
CC
is below the reset threshold, the watchdog function is
disabled and WDI goes high impedance as it is disconnected
from its internal resistor network.
The internal oscillator is enabled when OSC SEL is high or
floating. In this mode, OSC IN selects between the 1.6 second
and 100 ms watchdog timeout periods.
