Selecting the Reset and Watchdog
Time-Out Capacitors
The reset time-out period is adjustable in order to accom-
modate a variety of µP applications. The reset time-out
period, t
RT
, is adjusted by connecting a capacitor, C
RT
,
between the RT pin and ground. The value of this capacitor
is determined as follows:
C
RT
= t
RT
/3.30
with C
RT
in pF and t
RT
in µs (i.e., 1500pF ⇒ 4.95ms).
The capacitor should be a low leakage type. A ceramic
capacitor is recommended.
The watchdog period is also adjustable so that the watchdog
time-out period can be optimized for software execution.
The watchdog time-out period, t
WT
, is adjusted by connect-
ing a capacitor, C
WT
, between the WT pin and ground. Once
the optimum watchdog time-out period (t
WT
) is determined,
the value of the capacitor is calculated as follows:
C
WT
= t
WT
/21.8
with C
WT
in pF and t
WT
in µs (i.e., 1500pF ⇒ 32.7ms).
The capacitor should be a low leakage type. A ceramic
capacitor is recommended.
