DESCRIPTION
The CAT1026 and CAT1027 are complete memory
and supervisory solutions for microcontroller-based
systems. A 2k-bit serial EEPROM memory and a
system power supervisor with brown-out protection
are integrated together in low power CMOS techno–
logy. Memory interface is via a 400kHz I
The CAT1026 and CAT1027 provide a precision V
sense circuit with five reset threshold voltage options
that support 5V, 3.3V and 3V systems. The power

CC
supply monitor and reset circuit protects memory and
systems controllers during power up/down and
against brownout conditions. If power supply voltages
are out of tolerance reset signals become active
preventing the system microcontroller, ASIC, or
peripherals from operating.
The CAT1026 features two open drain reset outputs:
one (RESET) drives high and the other (RESET
drives low whenever V
Reset outputs become inactive typically 200 ms after
the supply voltage exceeds the reset threshold value.
With both active high and low reset signals, interface
to microcontrollers and other ICs is simple. CAT1027
has only a RESET
can be used as an input for push-button manual reset
capability.
The CAT1026 and CAT1027 provide an auxiliary
voltage sensor input, V
a second system supply. The auxiliary high impedance comparator drives the open drain output, V
whenever the sense voltage is below 1.25V threshold.
The CAT1027 is designed with a 1.6 second
watchdog timer circuit that resets a system to a known
state if software or a hardware glitch halts or “hangs”
the system. The CAT1027 features a watchdog timer
interrupt input, WDI.
The on-chip 2k-bit EEPROM memory features a 16-byte
page. In addition, hardware data protection is provided
by a V
whenever V
reaches the reset threshold during power up.
Available packages include 8-pin DIP and surface
mount, 8-pin SO, 8-pin TSSOP, 8-pin TDFN and 8-pin
MSOP packages. The TDFN package thickness is
These are open drain pins and RESET
as a manual reset trigger input. By forcing a reset
condition on the pin the device will initiate and
maintain a reset condition. The RESET pin must be
connected through a pull-down resistor, and the

SDA: SERIAL DATA ADDRESS
The bidirectional serial data/address pin is used to
transfer all data into and out of the device. The SDA
pin is an open drain output and can be wire-ORed
with other open drain or open collector outputs.
