TheLTC692/LTC693providecompletepowersupplymoni-
toring and battery control functions for microprocessor
reset, batterybackup, CMOSRAMwriteprotection, power
failure warning and watchdog timing. A precise internal
voltage reference and comparator circuit monitor the
power supply line. When an out-of-tolerance condition
occurs,theresetoutputsareforcedtoactivestatesandthe
Chip Enable output unconditionally write-protects exter-
nal memory. In addition, the RESET output is guaranteed
to remain logic low even with VCC as low as 1V.

The LTC692/LTC693 power the active CMOS RAMs with a
charge pumped NMOS power switch to achieve low drop-
out and low supply current. When primary power is lost,
auxiliarypower,connectedtothebatteryinputpin,powers
the RAMs in standby through an efficient PMOS switch.

For an early warning of impending power failure, the
LTC692/LTC963 provide an internal comparator with a
user-defined threshold. An internal watchdog timer is
also available, which forces the reset pins to active states
when the watchdog input is not toggled prior to a preset
time-out period.
