MIC2774 Dual Micro-Power Low Voltage Supervisor General Description Features The MIC2774 is a dual power supply supervisor that provides under-voltage monitoring, manual reset capability, and power-on reset generation in a compact 5-pin SOT package. Features include two under-voltage detectors, one fixed and one adjustable, and a choice of reset outputs. One undervoltage detector compares VDD against a fixed threshold. Ten factory-programmed thresholds are available. The second, user-adjustable input is compared against a 300mV reference. This low reference voltage allows monitoring voltages lower than those supported by previous supervisor ICs. The reset outputs are asserted at power-on and any time either voltage drops below the programmed threshold voltages and remains asserted for 140ms (min.) after they subsequently rise back above the threshold boundaries. Manual reset functionality can be provided by a switch connected between ground and the /MR input. A wide choice of voltage thresholds provides for a variety of supply voltages and tolerances. Hysteresis is included to prevent chattering due to noise. Typical supply current is a low 3.5A. * Monitors two independent power supplies for under-voltage conditions * One fixed and one user adjustable input * Choice of factory-programmed thresholds * Adjustable input can monitor supplies as low as 0.3V * Generates 140ms (minimum) power-on reset pulse * Manual reset input * Choice of active-high, active-low, or open-drain activelow reset outputs * Inputs may be pulled above VDD (7V abs. max.) * Open-drain output can be pulled above VDD (7V abs max.) * /RST output valid down to 1.2V * Ultra-low supply current, 3.5A typical * Rejects brief input transients * IttyBittyTM 5-lead SOT-23 package * Pin compatible upgrade for MAX6306/09/12 Applications * Monitoring processor ASIC, or FAGA core and I/O voltages * PDAs, hand-held PCs * Embedded controllers * Telecommunications systems * Power supplies * Wireless / Cellular systems * Networking hardware Ordering Information Part Number Reset Output Temperature Range Package UGXX(1) Open-Drain.

Functional Description MIC2774 to the reset input of a C or P, the processor will be properly reset at power-on and during power-down and brown-out conditions. In addition, asserting /MR, the manual reset input, will activate the reset function. The reset output is asserted any time /MR is asserted or if VIN or VDD drops below the corresponding threshold voltage. The reset output remains asserted for tRST(min) after VIN and/or VDD subsequently return above the threshold boundaries and/or /MR is released. A reset pulse is also generated at power-on. Hysteresis is included in the comparators to prevent chattering of the output due to noise. /MR, Manual Reset Input The ability to initiate a reset via external logic or a manual switch is provided in addition to the MIC2774's automatic supervisory functions. Driving the /MR input to a logic low causes an immediate and unconditional reset to occur. Assuming VIN and VDD are within tolerance when /MR is released (returns high), the reset output will be de-asserted no less than tRST later. /MR may be driven by a logic signal, or mechanical switch. Typically, a momentary push-button switch is connected such that /MR is shorted to ground when the switch contacts close. Switch de-bouncing is performed internally; the switch may be connected directly between /MR and GND. /MR is internally pulled-up to VDD and may be left open if unused. IN, Under-Voltage Detector Input The voltage present at the IN pin is compared to the internal 300mV reference voltage. A reset is triggered if and when VIN falls below VREF. Typically, a resistor divider is used to scale the input voltage to be monitored such that VIN will fall below VREF as the voltage being monitored falls below the desired trip-point. Hysteresis is employed to prevent chattering due to noise. The comparator on the IN pin is relatively immune to very brief negative-going transients. VDD Input The VDD pin is both the power supply terminal and a monitored input voltage. The voltage at this pin is continually compared against the internal reference. The trip-point at which a reset occurs is factory programmed. A reset is triggered if and when VDD falls below the trip-point. Hysteresis is employed to prevent chattering due to noise. The comparator on the VDD input is relatively immune to very brief negative-going transients. RST, /RST Reset Output Typically, the MIC2774 is used to monitor the power supplies of intelligent circuits such as microcontrollers and microprocessors. By connecting the appropriate reset output of a October 2005 5 M9999-102605 MIC2774 Micrel Application Information To summarize, the various potential error sources are: * Variation in VREF: specified at 1.5% * Resistor tolerance: chosen by designer (typically 1%) * Input bias current, IIN: calculated once resistor values are known, typically very small Programming the Voltage Threshold Referring to the "Typical Application Circuit", the voltage threshold on the IN pin is calculated as follows: V TH = VREF x (R1 + R2 ) R2 where VREF = 0.300V In order to provide the additional criteria needed to solve for the resistor values, the resistors can be selected such that the two resistors have a given total value, that is, R1 + R2 = RTOTAL. Imposing this condition on the resistor values provides two equations that can be solved for the two unknown resistor values. A value such as 1M for RTOTAL is a reasonable choice since it keeps quiescent current to a generally acceptable level while not causing any measurable errors due to input bias currents. The larger the resistors, the larger the potential errors due to input bias current (IIN). The maximum recommended value of RTOTAL is 3M. Applying this criteria and rearranging the VTH expression to solve for the resistor values gives: R2 = R1 Taking the various potential error sources into account, the threshold voltage will be set slightly below the minimum VCORE specification of 0.950V so that when the actual threshold voltage is at its maximum, it will not intrude into the normal operating range of VCORE. The target threshold voltage will be set as follows: Given that the total tolerance on VTH for the IN pin is [VREF tolerance] + [resistor tolerance] = 1.5% + 1% = 2.5%, and VTH(max) = VCORE(min), then VCORE(min) = VTH + 2.5% VTH = 1.025 VTH, therefore, solving for VTH results in VCORE(min) 0.950 V TH = = = 0.9268V 1.025 1.025 (R TOTAL )(VREF ) V TH Solving for R1 and R2 using this value for VTH and the equations above yields: R1 = 676.3k 673k R2 = 323.7k 324k The resulting circuit is shown in Figure 1. Input Bias Current Effects Now that the resistor values are known, it is possible to calculate the maximum potential error due to input bias current, IIN. As shown in the "Electrical Characteristics" table, the maximum value of IIN is 10nA. (Note that the typical value is a much smaller 5pA!) The magnitude of the offset caused by IIN is given by: = R TOTAL - RR2 Application Example Figure 1 below illustrates a hypothetical MIC2774L-23 application in which the MIC2774L-23 is used to monitor the core and I/O supplies of a high-performance CPU or DSP. The core supply, VCORE, in the example is 1.0V 5%. The main power rail and I/O voltage, VI/O, is 2.5V 5%. As shown in Figure 1, the MIC2774 is powered by VI/O. The minimum value of VI/O is 2.5V -5% = 2.375V; the maximum is 2.5V +5% = 2.625V. This is well within the device's supply range of 1.5V to 5.5V. Resistors R1 and R2 must be selected to correspond to the VCORE supply of 1.0V. The goal is to insure that the core supply voltage is adequate to insure proper operation, i.e., VCORE (1.0V -5%) = 0.950V. Because there is always a small degree of uncertainty due to the accuracy of the resistors, variations in the devices' voltage reference, etc., the threshold will be set slightly below this value. The potential variation in the MIC2774's voltage reference (VREF) is specified as 1.5%. The resistors chosen will have their own tolerance specification. This example will assume the use of 1% accurate resistors. The potential worst-case error contribution due to input bias current can be calculated once the resistor values are chosen. If the guidelines above regarding the maximum total value of R1+R2 are followed, this error contribution will be very small thanks to the MIC2774's very low input bias current. M9999-102605 VERROR = IIN(max) x (R1 || R2 ) = VERROR = 1x 1x 10 -88 A x 2 2.189 x 10 5 = VERROR = 2 2.189 x 10 -3 V = VERROR = 2 2.189mV The typical error is about three orders of magnitude lower than this - close to one microvolt! Generally, the error due to input bias can be discounted. If it is to be taken into account, simply adjust the target threshold voltage downward by this amount and recalculate R1 and R2. The resulting value will be very close to optimum. If accuracy is more important than the quiescent current in the resistors, simply reduce the value of RTOTAL to minimize offset errors. 6 October 2005 MIC2774 Micrel T ypic al V VCORE 1.0V 5% MICROPROCESSOR OCESSO OCESSOR VCORE VI/O R1 676k 1% MIC2774L-23 /RST VDD IN R2 324k 1% /MR /RESET MAX.

Typical VDD Transient Response Interfacing to Processors With Bidirectional Reset Pins Some microprocessors have reset signal pins that are bidirectional, rather than input only. The Motorola 68HC11 family is one example. Because the MIC2774N's output is open-drain, it can be connected directly to the processor's reset pin using only the pull-up resistor normally required. See Figure 2. Ensuring Proper Operation at Low Supply At levels of VDD below 1.2V, the MIC2774's reset output cannot turn on sufficiently to produce a valid logic-low on /RST. In this situation, circuits driven by /RST could be allowed to float, causing undesired operation. (In most cases, however, it is expected that the circuits driven by the MIC2774L will be similarly inoperative at VDD 1.2V.) If a given application requires that /RST be valid below VDD = 1.2V, this can be accomplished by adding a pull-down resistor to the /RST output. A value of 100k is recommended as this is usually an acceptable compromise of quiescent current and pull-down current. The resistor's value is not critical, however. See Figure 4. The statements above also apply to the MIC2774H's RST output. That is, to ensure valid RST signal levels at VDD < 1.2V, a pull-up resistor (as opposed to a pull-down) should be added to the RST output. A value of 100k is typical for this application as well.

Interfacing to Bidirectional Reset Pin Transient response The MIC2774 is inherently immune to very short negativegoing "glitches." Very brief transients may exceed the voltage thresholds without tripping the output. As shown in Figure 3a and 3b, in general the narrower the transient, the deeper the threshold overdrive that will be ignored by the MIC2774. The graphs represent the typical allowable transient duration for a given amount of threshold overdrive that will not generate a reset. MAX.
