Pin Descriptions
VDD (pin 1)
Control (pin 5)
This pin is the positive supply pin, and should
always be the most positive point in the circuit.
Internal circuitry connected to this pin is used to
provide power on reset of the microprocessor, so
an external reset signal is not required. Refer to
the Electrical Characteristics section for further
information.
This output goes to an active high level (VDD), in
response to a valid low level on pin 4. The
duration of the output will be the same as the
input, to a maximum of 500ms. At this point, the
circuit will assume that the button is ‘stuck’, or
there has been a wiring fault, and it will turn the
output off. The state of the RLED and the GLED
lines is not updated if the circuit thinks that the
pushbutton is being pressed.
RLED (pin 2), and GLED (pin 3)
These two pins are for driving a red and a green
LED through a current limiting resistance.
Typically the LED used will be a dual type, that
appears white if not energized, red if energized
in one polarity, and green if the polarity is
reversed. Alternatively, two discrete LEDs could
be wired ‘back-to-back’. During powerup, the red
LED will be lit for 0.5sec, followed by the green
for 0.5sec, and then the circuit will alternate
between the two for a further 0.5sec.
ClosedSw (pin 6), and OpenSw (pin 7)
These two inputs are for monitoring the position
of the door. This is normally done by connecting
magnetic reed type switches between each of
these pins and VSS, with the two switches
mounted at the extreme positions of the door
travel. When fully open, only the OpenSw input
will be at a logic low level (switch closed), and
when fully closed, only the ClosedSw input will
be low. Both switches simultaneously open or
closed will cause the LEDs to alternately flash
red and green as a warning (or as feedback that
the door is moving). Internal circuitry provides a
nominal 0.5sec debounce period on both inputs.
PB (pin 4)
A momentary low level signal on this pin will
cause the control output to go high, after
approximately 25msec delay due to the internal
debounce circuitry. If unused, this pin should be
connected to VDD.
VSS (pin 8)
Circuit common is connected to this pin. This is
the most negative point in the circuit.
