FUNCTION
Reset Input. High-impedance input to the reset comparator. Connect this pin to the center point of an
external resistor voltage-divider network to set the reset threshold voltage. The reset threshold voltage
1
is calculated as follows: V
= 1.22 x (R1 + R2) / R2 (see Typical Operating Circuit).

Ground
Set Reset-Timeout Input. Connect a capacitor between this input and ground to select the reset timeout

period (t ). Determine the period as follows: t = 2.67 x C
, with C
SRT
in pF and t in µs (see

Set Watchdog-Timeout Input. Connect a capacitor between this input and ground to select the basic
watchdog timeout period (t ). Determine the period as follows: t = 2.67 x C , with C in pF

WD
Watchdog-Select Input. This input selects the watchdog mode. Connect to ground to select normal mode
and the basic watchdog timeout period. Connect to V to select extended mode, multiplying the basic
CC
timeout period by a factor of 500. A change in the state of this pin resets the watchdog timer to zero.
Watchdog Input. A rising or falling transition must occur on this input within the selected watchdog
timeout period, or a reset pulse will occur. The capacitor value selected for SWT and the state of WDS
determine the watchdog timeout period. The watchdog timer clears and restarts when a transition
occurs on WDI or WDS. The watchdog timer is cleared when reset is asserted and restarted after reset

WDI
deasserts. In the extended watchdog mode (WDS = V ), the watchdog function can be disabled by
CC
driving WDI with a three-stated driver or by leaving WDI unconnected.
