GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADM6821–ADM6825 are supervisory circuits that monitor
power supply voltage levels and code execution integrity in
microprocessor-based systems. As well as providing power on
reset signals, an on-chip watchdog timer can reset the
microprocessor if it fails to strobe within a preset timeout
period. A reset signal can also be asserted by means of an
external push-button, through a manual reset input. The parts
feature different combinations of watchdog input, manual reset
input and output stage configuration, as shown in table 1.
Each part is available in a choice of nine reset threshold options
ranging from 1.58 V to 4.63 V. The reset and watchdog timeout
periods are fixed at 140 ms (min) and 1.6s (typ), respectively.
The ADM6821–ADM6825 are available in 5-lead SOT-23
packages and typically consume only 3 µA, making them
suitable for use in low power portable applications.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ADM6821/2/3/4/5 provide microprocessor supply voltage
supervision by controlling the microprocessor’s reset input.
Code-execution errors are avoided during power-up, powerdown, and brownout conditions by asserting a reset signal when
the supply voltage is below a preset threshold and by allowing
supply voltage stabilization with a fixed-timeout reset pulse
after the supply voltage rises above the threshold. In addition,
problems with microprocessor code execution can be
monitored and corrected with a watchdog timer
(ADM6821/2/3/4). By including watchdog strobe instructions
in microprocessor code, a watchdog timer can detect if the
microprocessor code breaks down or becomes stuck in an
infinite loop. If this happens, the watchdog timer asserts a reset
pulse that restarts the microprocessor in a known state. If the
user detects a problem with the system’s operation, a manual
reset input is available (ADM6821/2/3/5) to reset the
microprocessor by means of an external push-button, for
example.
RESET OUTPUT
The ADM6821/3 feature an active-low, push-pull reset output
while the ADM6822 features an active-low open drain reset
output. The ADM6824/5 feature dual active-low and activehigh push-pull reset outputs. For active-low and active-high
outputs, the reset signal is guaranteed to be logic low and logic
high respectively for V
down to 1 V.
CC
MANUAL RESET INPUT
The ADM6821/2/3/5 feature a manual reset input (MR) which,
when driven low, asserts the reset output. When
transitions
MR
from low to high, reset remains asserted for the duration of the
reset active timeout period before deasserting. The
MR
input
has a 52 k⍀ internal pull-up so that the input is always high
when unconnected. An external push-button switch can be
connected between
and ground so that the user can
MR
generate a reset. Debounce circuitry is integrated on-chip for
this purpose. Noise immunity is provided on the
input and
MR
fast, negative-going transients of up to 100 ns (typ) are ignored.
A 0.1 µF capacitor between
and ground provides additional
MR
noise immunity.
WATCHDOG INPUT
The ADM6821/2/3/4 feature a watchdog timer which monitors
microprocessor activity. A timer circuit is cleared with every
low-to-high or high-to-low logic transition on the watchdog
input pin (WDI), which detects pulses as short as 50 ns. If the
timer counts through the preset watchdog timeout period (t
reset is asserted. The microprocessor is required to toggle the
WDI pin to avoid being reset. Failure of the microprocessor to
toggle WDI within the timeout period therefore indicates a
code execution error, and the reset pulse generated restarts the
microprocessor in a known state.

In addition to logic transitions on WDI, the watchdog timer is
also cleared by a reset assertion due to an undervoltage condition on V

until reset deassserts. The watchdog timer can be disabled by
leaving WDI floating or by three-stating the WDI driver.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
WATCHDOG INPUT CURRENT
In order to minimize watchdog input current (and minimize
overall power consumption), leave WDI low for the majority of
the watchdog timeout period. When driven high, WDI can draw
as much as 160 µA. Pulsing WDI low-high-low at a low duty
cycle reduces the effect of the large input current. When WDI is
unconnected, a window comparator disconnects the watchdog
timer from the reset output circuitry so that reset is not asserted
when the watchdog timer times out.
NEGATIVE-GOING VCC TRANSIENTS
To avoid unnecessary resets caused by fast power supply
transients, the ADM6821/2/3/4/5 are equipped with glitch
rejection circuitry. The typical performance characteristic in
Error! Reference source not found. plots V

CC
duration versus the transient magnitude. The curves show
combinations of transient magnitude and duration for which a
reset is not generated for 4.63 V and 2.93 V reset threshold
parts. For example, with the 2.93 V threshold, a transient that
goes 100 mV below the threshold and lasts 8 µs typically does
not cause a reset, but if the transient is any bigger in magnitude
or duration, a reset is generated. An optional 0.1 µF bypass
capacitor mounted close to V
provides additional glitch
CC
rejection.
ENSURING RESET VALID TO VCC = 0 V
Both active-low and active-high reset outputs are guaranteed to
be valid for V
resistor with push-pull configured reset outputs, valid outputs
as low as 0 V are possible. For an active-low reset output,

case, a resistor connected between RESET and V

resistance such as 100 kΩ should be used so that it does not
overload the reset output when V
as low as 1V. However, by using an external

WATCHDOG SOFTWARE CONSIDERATIONS
In implementing the microprocessor’s watchdog strobe code,
quickly switching WDI low-high and then high-low
(minimizing WDI high time) is desirable for current
consumption reasons. However, a more effective way of using
the watchdog function can be considered.
A low-high-low WDI pulse within a given subroutine prevents
the watchdog timing out. However, if the subroutine becomes
stuck in an infinite loop, the watchdog could not detect this
because the subroutine continues to toggle WDI. A more
effective coding scheme for detecting this error involves using a
slightly longer watchdog timeout. In the program that calls the
subroutine, WDI is set high. The subroutine sets WDI low when
it is called. If the program executes without error, WDI is
toggled high and low with every loop of the program. If the
subroutine enters an infinite loop, WDI is kept low, the
watchdog times out, and the microprocessor is reset.
