General Description
The TC1232 is a fully-integrated processor supervisor
that provides three important functions to safeguard
processor sanity: precision power on/off reset control,
watchdog timer and external reset override.
On power-up, the TC1232 holds the processor in the
reset state for a minimum of 250 msec after VCC is
within tolerance to ensure a stable system start-up.
Microprocessor sanity is monitored by the onboard
watchdog circuit. The microprocessor must provide a
periodic low-going signal on the ST input. Should the
processor fail to supply this signal within the selected
time-out period (150 msec, 600 msec or 1200 msec),
an out-of-control processor is indicated and the
TC1232 issues a processor reset as a result.
The outputs of the TC1232 are immediately driven
active when the PB input is brought low by an external
push button switch or other electronic signal. When
connected to a push button switch, the TC1232
provides contact debounce.
The TC12 32 is packag ed in a space-s aving 8-Pin PDIP
or SOIC package, a 16-Pin SOIC (wide) package and
requires no external components.

4.0 OPERATIONAL DESCRIPTION
4.1 Power Monitor
The TC1232 provides the function of warning the
processor of a power fai lure . When VCC is detected as
being below the voltage levels defined by the TOL pin,
the TC1232’s comparator outputs the RST and RST
signal s to a logic level tha t warns the syste m of an out-
of-tolerance power supply. The RST and RST signals
switch at a th reshold value of 4.5V i f T OL is tied to VCC,
and at a value of 4.75 volts if TOL is grounded. The
RST and RST signal s are hel d ac tiv e for a min im um of
250 ms to ensure that the power supply voltage has
been stabilized.
Figure 4-1 shows the VCC fall time .
Figure 4-2 shows the VCC rise time.
Figure 4-3 shows the time from when the voltage trip
point is detected to the reset output pin going active.
Figure 4-4 shows the time from when the voltage trip
point is exited to the reset output pin going inactive.

4.2 Push Button Reset Input
The debo unced man ual reset inpu t (PB RST) manu ally
forces the reset outputs into their active states.
Figure 4-5 shows a block diagram for using the
TC1232 with a push button switch.
Once PB RST has been low for a time tPBD (the push-
button delay time), the reset outputs go active. The
reset outputs remain in their active states for a
minimum of 250 ms after PB RST rises above VIH.
Figure 4-6 shows a waveform for the push button
switch input and the reset pins output.
A mechanical push button or active logic signal can
drive the P B RST input. The debounced input ignores
input pulses less than 1 ms and recognizes pulses of
20 ms or greater. No external pull-up resistor is
required because the PB RST input has an internal
pull-up to VCC of approximately 100 µ A. FIGURE 4-5: Push Button Reset and

4.3 Watchdog Timer
When the ST input is not stimulated for a preset time
period, the watchdog timer function forces RST and
RST signals to the active state. The preset time period
is determined by the TD inputs to be 150 ms with TD
connected to ground, 600 ms with TD floating or
1200 ms with TD connected to VCC (typ.). The
watchdog timer starts timing-out from the set time
period as s oon as RST and R ST are inactive. If a hig h-
to-low transition occurs on the ST input pin prior to
time-out, the watchdog timer is reset and begins to
time-ou t again. If the watchdo g timer is allowed to time-
out, the RST and RST signals are driven to the active
state for 250 ms, minimum (Figure 4-7).
The software routine that strobes ST is critical. The
code must be in a section of software that is executed
frequently enough so the time between toggles is less
than the watchdog time-out period. One common
techniq ue controls the microprocessor I/O line from two
sectio ns of the p rogram. The sof tware migh t set the I/O
line high while operating in the Foreground mode and
set it low whi le in the Ba ckgro und or Interru pt mo des. If
both modes do not execute correctly, the watchdog
timer issues reset pulses.
tTD is the maximum elapsed time between ST high-to-
low transitions (ST is activated by falling edges only),
which will keep the watchdog timer from forcing the
reset outputs active for a time of tRST. tTD is a function
of the voltage at the TD pin, as tabulated below:
TABLE 4-1: WATCHDOG TIMER
PERIODS
Figure 4-7 shows a block diagram for using the
TC1232 with a PICmicro® MCU and the Watchdog
input.
FIGURE 4-7: Watchdog Timer.
Figure 4-8 shows the expected reset output pin wave-
forms depending on the period of the ST pin falling
edge and the state of the TD input pin.
FIGURE 4-8: Strobe Input.
4.4 Supply Monitor Noise Sensitivity
The TC1 232 is op timized for fa st resp onse to ne gative-
going changes in VDD. Systems with an inordinate
amount of electrical noise on VDD (such as systems
using relays) may require a 0.01 µF or 0.1 µF bypass
capacitor to reduce detection sensitivity. This capacitor
should b e installed as close to the TC12 32 as po ss ibl e
to keep the capacitor lead length short.
