FEATURES
The SP705-708/813L series provides four key
functions:
1. A reset output during power-up, power-
down and brownout conditions.
2. An independent watchdog output that goes
LOW if the watchdog input has not been
toggled within 1.6 seconds.
3. A 1.25V threshold detector for power-fail
warning, low battery detection, or monitoring
a power supply other than +5V.
4. An active-LOW manual-reset that allows
RESET to be triggered by a pushbutton switch.
The SP707/708 devices are the same as the
SP705/706 devices except for the active-HIGH
RESET substitution of the watchdog timer. The
SP813L is the same as the SP705 except an
active-HIGH RESET is provided rather than an
active-LOW
devices generate a reset when the supply
voltage drops below 4.65V. The SP706/708
devices generate a reset below 4.40V.

RESET O
A microprocessor's reset input starts the µP in
a known state. The SP705-708/813L series
asserts reset during power-up and prevents
code execution errors during power down or
brownout conditions.
On power-up, once V

rises, RESET stays LOW. When V

brownout condition occurs in the middle of a
previously initiated reset pulse, the pulse
continues for at least another 140ms. On
power down, once V

The
output is simply the complement of the RESET
output and is guaranteed to be valid with V
down to 1.1V. Some µPs, such as Intel's
80C51, require an active-HIGH reset pulse.
W
The
monitors the µP's activity. If the µP does not
toggle the watchdog input (WDI) within 1.6
seconds and WDI is not tri-stated, WDO goes
LOW. As long as RESET is asserted or the WDI
input is tri-stated, the watchdog timer will stay
cleared and will not count. As soon as RESET
is released and WDI is driven HIGH or LOW,
the timer will start counting. Pulses as short as
50ns can be detected.
Typically, WDO will be connected to the non-
maskable interrupt input (NMI) of a µP. When
V

had timed out. Normally this would trigger an
NMI but RESET goes LOW simultaneously and
thus overrides the NMI.
If WDI is left unconnected, WDO can be used
as a low-line output. Since floating WDI
disables the internal timer, WDO goes LOW
only when V
thus functioning as a low-line output.
