the system. The CAT1027 features a watchdog timer
interrupt input, WDI.
The on-chip 2k-bit EEPROM memory features a 16-byte
page. In addition, hardware data protection is provided
by a V
CC
sense circuit that prevents writes to memory
whenever V
CC
falls below the reset threshold or until V
CC
reaches the reset threshold during power up.
Available packages include 8-pin DIP and surface
mount, 8-pin SO, 8-pin TSSOP, 8-pin TDFN and 8-pin
MSOP packages. The TDFN package thickness is
0.8mm maximum. TDFN footprint is 3 x 3mm.
supply monitor and reset circuit protects memory and
systems controllers during power up/down and
against brownout conditions. If power supply voltages
are out of tolerance reset signals become active
preventing the system microcontroller, ASIC, or
peripherals from operating.
The CAT1026 features two open drain reset outputs:

one (RESET) drives high and the other (RESET)
drives low whenever V
CC
falls below the threshold.
Reset outputs become inactive typically 200ms after
the supply voltage exceeds the reset threshold value.
With both active high and low reset signals, interface
to microcontrollers and other ICs is simple. CAT1027

has only a RESET output. In addition, the RESET pin
can be used as an input for push-button manual reset
capability.
The CAT1026 and CAT1027 provide an auxiliary
voltage sensor input, V
SENSE
, which is used to monitor
a second system supply. The auxiliary high impe-
dance comparator drives the open drain output, V
LOW
,
whenever the sense voltage is below 1.25V threshold.
DESCRIPTION
The CAT1026 and CAT1027 are complete memory
and supervisory solutions for microcontroller-based
systems. A 2k-bit serial EEPROM memory and a
system power supervisor with brown-out protection
are integrated together in low power CMOS techno鈥?/div>
logy. Memory interface is via a 400kHz I

C bus.
The CAT1026 and CAT1027 provide a precision V
CC
sense circuit with five reset threshold voltage options
that support 5V, 3.3V and 3V systems. The power
