  • Description

    The LM3712 series of microprocessor supervisory circuits provide the maximum flexibility for monitoring power supplies and battery controlled functions in systems without backup batteries. The LM3712 series are available in a 9-bump micro SMD package.

    Built-in features include the following:

    Reset: Reset is asserted during power-up, power-down, and brownout conditions. ^RESET is guaranteed down to VCC of 1.0V.

    Manual Reset Input: An input that asserts reset when pulled low.

    Power-Fail Input: A 1.225V threshold detector for power fail warning, or to monitor a power supply other than VCC.

    Watchdog Timer: The WDI (Watchdog Input) monitors one of the µP's output lines for activity. If no output transition occurs during the watchdog timeout period, the watchdog output ( ^WDO) pulls low.
