4.1 Reset Voltage Trip Point (V
TRIP
)
Operation
The device’s Reset voltage trip point (V
TRIP
) is selected
when the device is ordered. As the voltage on the
device’s V
DD
pin is above or below this selected trip
point, the output of the Reset pin (RST/RST
) will be
forced to either the inactive or active state.
For the voltage trip point, there is a minimum trip voltage
(V
TRIPMIN
) and a maximum trip voltage (V
TRIPMAX
). The
voltage that the device “actually” trips at will be referred
to as V
TRIP
. The trip voltage is specified for the falling of
the device V
DD
.
There is also a hysteresis (V
HYS
) on the trip point. This
is so that noise on the device voltage (V
DD
) does not
cause the Reset pin (RST/RST
) to “jitter” (change
between driving an active and inactive state).
The Reset pin (RST or RST
) will be forced active if any
of the following occur:
• The Manual Reset input (MR
) goes low
• The Watchdog Timer times out
•V
DD
goes below the threshold
• During device power-up
After the device exits the Reset condition, the delay
circuitry will hold the RST and RST
pins active until the
appropriate Reset delay time (t
RST
) has elapsed.
