DESCRIPTION
The DS1705/DS1706 3.3 or 5.0 Volt MicroMonitor monitors three vital conditions for a microprocessor: power
supply, software execution, and external override. A
precision temperature compensated reference and
comparator circuit monitors the status of V
device and at an upstream point for maximum protection. When the sense input detects an out–of–tolerance

condition a non–maskable interrupt is generated. As
the voltage at the device degrades an internal power fail
signal is generated which forces the reset to an active
state. When VCC returns to an in–tolerance condition,
the reset signal is kept in the active state for a minimum
of 130 ms to allow the power supply and processor to
stabilize.

DS1705/DS1706
The second function the DS1705/DS1706 performs is
pushbutton reset control. The DS1705/DS1706
debounces the pushbutton input and guarantees an
active reset pulse width of 130 ms minimum.
The third function is a watchdog timer. The
DS1705/DS1706 has an internal timer that forces the
WDO signal to the active state if the strobe input is not
driven low prior to time–out.
OPERATION
Power Monitor
The DS1705/DS1706 detects out–of–tolerance power
supply conditions and warns a processor–based system of impending power failure. When VCC falls below
the minimum VCC tolerance, a comparator outputs the
RST (or RST) signal. RST (or RST) is an excellent control signal for a microprocessor, as processing is
stopped at the last possible moment of valid V
CC
. On
power–up, RST (or RST) are kept active for a minimum
of 130 ms to allow the power supply and processor to
stabilize.
Pushbutton Reset
The DS1705/DS1706 provides an input pin for direct
connection to a push–button reset (see Figure 2). The
pushbutton reset input requires an active low signal.
Internally , this input is debounced and timed such that a
RST (or RST) signal of at least 130 ms minimum will be
generated. The 130 ms delay commences as the pushbutton reset input is released from the low level. The
push–button can be initiated by connecting the WDS
outputs to the PBRST input as shown in Figure 3.
NMI
or
Non–Maskable Interrupt
The DS1705/DS1706 generates a non–maskable interrupt (NMI) for early warning of a power failure. A precision comparator monitors the voltage level at the IN pin
relative to an on–chip reference generated by an internal band gap. The IN pin is a high impedance input
allowing for a user–defined sense point. An external
resistor voltage divider network (Figure 5) is used to
interface with high voltage signals. This sense point
may be derived from a regulated supply or from a higher
DC voltage level closer to the main system power input.
Since the IN trip point V
ues for R1 and R2 can be determined by the equation as
shown in Figure 5. Proper operation of the
is 1.25 volts, the proper val-
TP
DS1705/DS1706 requires that the voltage at the IN pin
be limited to V
voltage at the supply being monitored (V
. Therefore, the maximum allowable
CC
MAX
) can also
be derived as shown in Figure 5. A simple approach to
solving the equation is to select a value for R2 high
enough to keep power consumption low, and solve for
R1. The flexibility of the IN input pin allows for detection
of power loss at the earliest point in a power supply system, maximizing the amount of time for system shut–
down between NMI
and RST (or RST).
When the supply being monitored decays to the voltage
sense point, the DS1705/DS1706 pulses the NMI
output to the active state for a minimum 200 µs. The NMI
power fail detection circuitry also has built–in hysteresis
of 100 µV . The supply must be below the voltage sense
point for approximately 5 µs before a low NMI will be
generated. In this way , power supply noise is removed
from the monitoring function, preventing false interrupts. During a power–up, any detected IN pin levels
below V
ating an interrupt until VCC rises to V
any potential NMI pulse will not be initiated until V

of–tolerance condition occurred in a monitored supply.
An example is shown in Figure 3.
Watchdog Timer
The watchdog timer function forces WDS signals active

tion occurs on the ST input pin prior to time–out, the
watchdog timer is reset and begins to time–out again. If
the watchdog timer is allowed to time out, the WDS
nal is driven active (low) for a minimum of 130 ms. The
ST input can be derived from many microprocessor outputs. The typical signals used are the microprocessors
address signals, data signals, or control signals. When
the microprocessor functions normally, these signals
would, as a matter of routine, cause the watchdog to be
reset prior to time–out. T o guarantee that the watchdog
timer does not time–out, a high–to–low transition must
occur at or less than the minimum watchdog time–out of
1 second. A typical circuit example is shown in Figure 6.
