Description
The function of microcontrollers in safety-critical applications (e.g., anti-lock systems) needs to be monitored permanently. Usually, this task is acplished by an independent watchdog timer. The monolithic IC U6813B, designed in bipolar technology and qualified according to the needs of the automotive industry, includes such a watchdog timer and provides additional features for added value. With the help of integrated driver stages, it is easy to control safety-related functions of a relay and of an N-channel power MOSFET in high-side applications. In case of a microcontroller malfunction or supply-voltage anomalies, the U6813B provides...
