DS4510U+

PMIC - Supervisors

The DS4510U+ supervisor is an integrated circuit that monitors voltage levels, reset and sequence control signals of an electronic system. It is an efficient and reliable supervisor device with alert and reset functions, optimized for high performance and low power microprocessor systems. It can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from industrial to consumer design.

Applications

The DS4510U+ supervisor can be used to monitor the power supply and system voltages, detect and alert about violations of the power supplies, reset the microprocessor via assertable reset signals, and generate reset sequences for system initialization or for bug-free-boot.

It can be used in laptops, personal computers, cameras, mobile phones, test and measurement equipment, gaming consoles, industrial controllers, automotive systems, and other applications that require a supervisor device.

Working Principle

The DS4510U+ supervisor monitors the power supplies and the system voltages with two internal comparators. When the monitored voltage falls outside an adjustable trip point, an alert signal is generated. When the trip point is violated for a predefined amount of time, a reset signal is asserted.

The reset signal can be used to reset microprocessors and other devices within the system. It can also be used to generate reset sequences for a bug-free boot or system initialization. The DS4510U+ supervisor also features an adjustable input threshold, which allows it to detect low-level inputs.

Conclusion

The DS4510U+ supervisor is an efficient and reliable supervisor device with alert and reset functions, optimized for high-performance and low-power microprocessor systems. It can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from consumer and industrial designs. It can monitor the power supplies and system voltages, alert about violations of the power supplies, reset the microprocessor, and generate reset sequences for system initialization or bug-free-boot.
