Power-Fail Input
Power-Fail Input (PFI) is the input to the power-fail com-
parator. It has a guaranteed input leakage of ±25nA max
over temperature. The typical comparator delay is 25μs
from V
IL
to V
OL
(power failing), and 60μs from V
IH
to
V
OH
(power being restored). If PFI is not used, connect
it to ground.
Power-Fail Output
The Power-Fail Output (PFO) goes low when PFI goes
below 1.25V. It typically sinks 3.2mA with a saturation
voltage of 0.1V. With PFI above 1.25V, PFO is actively
pulled to V
OUT
.
Battery-Backup Mode
Two conditions are required to switch to battery-backup
mode: 1) V
CC
must be below the reset threshold, and 2)
V
CC
must be below VBATT. Table 2 lists the status of the
inputs and outputs in battery-backup mode.
Battery-On Output
The Battery-On (BATT ON) output indicates the status
of the internal V
CC
/battery-switchover comparator, which
controls the internal V
CC
and VBATT switches. For
V
CC
greater than VBATT (ignoring the small hysteresis
effect), BATT ON typically sinks 3.2mA at 0.1V saturation
voltage. In battery-backup mode, this terminal sources
approximately 10μA from V
OUT
. Use BATT ON to indi-
cate battery-switchover status or to supply base drive to
an external pass transistor for higher-current applications
(see Typical Operating Circuit).
Input Supply Voltage
The Input Supply Voltage (V
CC
) should be a regulated
5V. V
CC
connects to V
OUT
via a parallel diode and a
large PMOS switch. The switch carries the entire cur-rent
