LM3706/LM3707
Microprocessor Supervisory Circuits with Low Line
Output and Watchdog Timer
General Description
The LM3706/LM3707 series of microprocessor supervisory
circuits provide the maximum flexibility for monitoring power
supplies and battery controlled functions in systems without
backup batteries. The LM3706/LM3707 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 V
CC
of
1.0V.
Low Line Output: This early power failure warning indicator
goes low when the supply voltage drops to a value which is
2% higher than the reset threshold voltage.
Watchdog Timer: The WDI (Watchdog Input) monitors one of
the P's output lines for activity. If no output transition occurs
during the watchdog timeout period, reset is activated.

B1

Power Supply input.
C1
RESET
Reset Logic Output. Pulses low for t
RP
(Reset Timeout Period) when triggered, and stays
low whenever V
CC
is below the reset threshold or when MR is below V
MRT
. It remains low
for t
RP
after either V
CC
rises above the reset threshold, or after MR input rises above
V
MRT
(LM3706 only).
RESET
Reset Logic Output. RESET is the inverse of RESET (LM3707 only).
C3
LLO
Low-Line Logic Output. Early Power-Fail warning output. Low when V
CC
falls below V
LLOT
(Low-Line Output Threshold). This output can be used to generate an NMI (Non-Maskable
Interrupt) to provide an early warning of imminent power-failure.
B3
GND
Ground reference for all signals.
A3
WDI
Watchdog Input Transition Monitor: If no transition activity occurs for a period exceeding
t
WD
(Watchdog Timeout Period), reset is engaged.
