X4283/85 – Preliminary Information
PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
Power On Reset
Application of power to the X4283/85 activates a Power
On Reset Circuit that pulls the RESET/RESET pin
active. This signal provides several benefits.
– It prevents the system microprocessor from starting
– It prevents the processor from operating prior to sta-
– It allows time for an FPGA to download its configura-
– It prevents communication to the EEPROM, greatly
When V
for 200ms (nominal) the circuit releases RESET/
RESET allowing the system to begin operation.
LOW VOLTAGE MONITORING
During operation, the X4283/85 monitors the V
and asserts RESET/RESET if supply voltage falls
below a preset minimum V
signal prevents the microprocessor from operating in a
power fail or brownout condition. The RESET/RESET
signal remains active until the voltage drops below 1V.
It also remains active until V
V
WATCHDOG TIMER
The Watchdog Timer circuit monitors the microproces-
sor activity by monitoring the SDA and SCL pins. The
microprocessor must toggle the SDA pin HIGH to LOW

periodically, while SCL is HIGH (this is a start bit) prior
to the expiration of the watchdog time out period to pre-
vent a RESET/RESET signal. The state of two nonvola-
tile control bits in the Status Register determine the
watchdog timer period. The microprocessor can change
these watchdog bits, or they may be “locked” by tying
the WP pin HIGH.
EEPROM INADVERTENT WRITE PROTECTION
When RESET/RESET goes active as a result of a low
voltage condition or Watchdog Timer Time-Out, any in-
progress
RESET/RESET is active, no new communications are
allowed and no nonvolatile write operation can start.
Non-volatile writes in-progress when RESET/RESET
goes active are allowed to finish.
Additional protection mechanisms are provided with
memory Block Lock and the Write Protect (WP) pin.
These are discussed elsewhere in this document.

applications where the standard V

procedure is described below, and uses the application
