General Description
The ASM690A / ASM692A / ASM802L / ASM802M /
ASM805L offers complete single chip solutions for power
supply monitoring and control battery functions in
microprocessor systems. Each device implements four
functions: Reset control, watchdog monitoring, battery-
backup switching and powerfailure monitoring. In addition
to microprocessor reset under power-up and power-down
conditions,
these
devices
provide
battery-backup
switching to maintain control in power loss and brown-out
situations. Additional monitoring capabilities can provide
an early warning of unregulated power supply loss before
the voltage regulator drops out. The important features of
these four functions are:
1.6 second watchdog timer to keep microprocessor
responsive
4.40V or 4.65V VCC threshold for microprocessor
reset at power-up and power-down
SPDT (Single-pole, Double-throw) PMOS switch
connects backup power to RAM if VCC fails
1.25V threshold detector for power loss or general
purpose voltage monitoring
These features are pin-compatible with the industry
standard power-supply supervisors. Short-circuit and
thermal protection have also been added. The ASM690A
/ ASM802L / ASM805L generate a reset pulse when the
supply voltage drops below 4.65V and the ASM692A /
ASM802M generate a reset below 4.40V. The ASM802L /
ASM802M have
power-fail
accuracy
to
±2%.
The
ASM805L is the same as the ASM690A except that
RESET is provided instead of RESET.
