CAT24C323(32K), CAT24C643 (64K)
Supervisory Circuits with I2C Serial CMOS E2PROM, Precision Reset Controller and Watchdog Timer
DESCRIPTION
The CAT24C323/643 is a single chip solution to three
popular functions of EEPROM memory, precision reset
controller and watchdog timer. The 24C323(32K) and
24C643 (64K) feature a I
2
C Serial CMOS EEPROM
Catalyst advanced CMOS technology substantially re-
duces device power requirements. The 24C323/643
features a 32-byte page and is available in 8-pin DIP or
8-pin SOIC packages.
The reset function of the 24C323/643 protects the sys-
tem during brown out and power up/down conditions.
During system failure the watchdog timer feature pro-
tects the microcontroller with a reset signal. 24C323
features active low reset on pin 2 and active high reset
on pin 7. 24C323/643 features watchdog timer on the
WDI input pin (pin 1).
