FUNCTIONAL DEVICE OPERATION
LOGIC COMMANDS AND REGISTERS
The scan timer sets the polling period between input
switch reads in Sleep mode. The period is set in the
sleep
command
and may be set to 000 (no period) to 111 (64 ms).
In Sleep mode when the scan timer expires, inputs will
behave as programmed prior to sleep command. The 33993
will wake up for approximately 125
μ
s and read the switch
inputs. At the end of the 125
μ
s,
the input switch states are
compared with the switch state prior to sleep command.
When switch state changes are detected, an interrupt (when
enabled; refer to
wake
-
up / nterrupt command
description on
page
13
) is generated and the device enters Normal mode.
Without switch state changes, the 33993 will reset the scan
timer, inputs become tri-state, and the Sleep mode continues
until the scan timer expires again.
Table 19
shows the programmable settings of the Scan
timer.
Note
The interrupt and scan timers are disabled in the
Normal mode.
Figure 5
, page
8
, is a graphical description of how the
33993 device exits Sleep mode and enters Normal mode.
Notice that the device will exit Sleep mode when the interrupt
timer expires or when a switch change of state occurs. The
falling edge of INT triggers the MCU to wake from Sleep
state.
Figure 11
illustrates the current consumed during
Sleep mode. During the 125
μ
s, the device is fully active and
switch states are read. The quiescent current is calculated by
integrating the normal running current over scan period plus
approximately 60
μ
A.

TEMPERATURE MONITOR
With multiple switch inputs closed and the device
programmed with the wetting current timers disabled,
considerable power will be dissipated by the IC. For this
reason temperature monitoring has been implemented. The
temperature monitor is active in the Normal mode only. When
the IC temperature is above the thermal limit, the temperature
monitor will do all of the following:
