Replaces X25643/X25645
X5643/X5645
CPU Supervisor with 64Kbit SPI EEPROM
FEATURES
• Selectable watchdog timer
• Low V detection and reset assertion
DESCRIPTION
These devices combine four popular functions, Power-
on Reset Control, Watchdog Timer, Supply Voltage
Supervision, and Block Lock Protect Serial EEPROM
Memory in one package. This combination lowers sys-
tem cost, reduces board space requirements, and
increases reliability.
CC
—Five standard reset threshold voltages
—Re-program low V reset threshold voltage
CC
using special programming sequence
—Reset signal valid to V = 1V
CC
• Determine watchdog or low voltage reset with a
volatile flag bit
Applying power to the device activates the power on
reset circuit which holds RESET/RESET active for a
period of time. This allows the power supply and oscilla-
tor to stabilize before the processor can execute code.
• Long battery life with low power consumption
—<50µA max standby current, watchdog on
—<1µA max standby current, watchdog off
—<400µA max active current during read
• 64Kbits of EEPROM
• Built-in inadvertent write protection
—Power-up/power-down protection circuitry
—Protect 0, 1/4, 1/2 or all of EEPROM array with
Block Lock™ protection
—In circuit programmable ROM mode
• 2MHz SPI interface modes (0,0 & 1,1)
• Minimize EEPROM programming time
—32-byte page write mode
The Watchdog Timer provides an independent protection
mechanism for microcontrollers. When the microcon-
troller fails to restart a timer within a selectable time out
interval, the device activates the RESET/RESET signal.
The user selects the interval from three preset values.
Once selected, the interval does not change, even after
cycling the power.
The device’s low V
detection circuitry protects the
CC
user’s system from low voltage conditions, resetting
the system when V
falls below the minimum V
CC
CC
—Self-timed write cycle
trip point. RESET/RESET is asserted until V
returns
CC
—5ms write cycle time (typical)
• 2.7V to 5.5V and 4.5V to 5.5V power supply
operation
• Available packages
—8-lead PDIP, 14-lead SOIC
to proper operating level and stabilizes. Five industry
standard V thresholds are available, however,
TRIP
Xicor’s unique circuits allow the threshold to be repro-
grammed to meet custom requirements or to fine-tune
the threshold for applications requiring higher precision.
