CAT1232LP/CAT1832 5V and 3.3V Supply Monitor, Watchdog Timer, Manual Reset, with Active High & Low Resets Features s Selectable reset voltage tolerance 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 parator circuits monitor the 5V or 3.3V system power supply voltage, VCC. During power-up or when the power supply falls outside selectable tolerance limits, both the RESET and RESET bee 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 5V supply and 10% or 20% for the CAT1832 3.3V 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 250ms 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: 150ms, 600ms and 1.2sec. If the ST input is not strobed low before the watchdog time out period expires, the reset signals bee active for a minimum of 250ms. - CAT1232LP for 5V supply - CAT1832 for 3.3V supply s Selectable watchdog period: 150ms, 600ms or 1.2 sec s Two reset outputs - Active high, push-pull reset output - Active low, open-drain reset output (CAT1232LP) - Active low, push-pull reset output (CAT1832) s Debounced manual...
