Functional Description

Voltage Regulator

The HA1835P, and HA1848P supplies 5 V regulated output from a wide V

17.5 V). The external PNP transistor should be selected according to the supply current demand of the

system. Connect a more than 100

µF capacitor between Vout and GND to realize the 5 V regulated output.

The resistor connected from the Vadj terminal to the Vout or GND terminal fine tunes the output voltage.

A resistor between Vadj and the Vout decreases the output voltage, and a resistor between Vadj and GND

increases the output voltage.

Power-On Reset

The HA1835P, and HA1848P can output a reset pulse to start the microcomputer at power on (figure 6).

Note that

RES and RES are open-collector terminals. They should therefore be connected to a pull-up

resistor of about 5 k

Ω.

Watchdog Timer

The watchdog timer is a fail-safe function. It can reset the microcomputer system if the system runs out of

control. It does this be monitoring a pulse output by the system's software. It uses a bandpass filter to

determine whether the pulse frequency is within the system's normal frequency band (figure 7, 8). External

resistor and capacitor Rf and Cf determine the frequency range of the bandpass filter. If the pulse

frequency is not within the frequency band, the HA1835P, and HA1848P outputs a reset pulse.
