FUNCTIONAL DIAGRAM
DESCRIPTION
The CAT1232LP and CAT1832 microprocessor
supervisors can halt and restart a “hung-up” or
“stalled” microprocessor, restart a microprocessor
after a power failure, and debounce a manual/push-
button microprocessor reset switch. The devices are
drop in replacements for the Maxim/Dallas
Semiconductor DS1232LP and DS1832 supervisors
Precision reference and comparator circuits monitor
the 5 V or 3.3 V system power supply voltage, V
CC
.
During power-up or when the power supply falls
outside selectable tolerance limits, both the RESET
and RESET
¯¯¯¯¯¯
become active. After the power supply
voltage rises above the RESET threshold voltage, the
reset signals remain active for a minimum of 250ms,
allowing the power supply and system processor to
stabilize. The trip-point tolerance input, TOL, selects
the trip level tolerance to be either 5% or 10% for the
CAT1232LP 5 V supply and 10% or 20% for the
CAT1832 3.3 V supply.
Each device has a push-pull, active HIGH reset
output. The CAT1232LP also has an open drain,
active LOW reset output while the CAT1832 also has
a push-pull, active LOW reset output.
A debounced manual reset input activates the reset
outputs and holds them active for a minimum period of
250 ms after being released.
Also included is a watchdog timer to reset a
microprocessor that has stopped due to a software or
hardware failure. Three watchdog time-out periods are
selectable: 150 ms, 600 ms and 1.2 s. If the ST
¯¯
input
is not strobed low before the watchdog time out period
expires, the reset signals become active for a
minimum of 250 ms.
