These devices combine four popular functions, Power-on Reset Control, Watchdog Timer, Supply Voltage Supervision, and Block Lock Protect Serial EEPROM Memory in one package. This combination lowers system cost, reduces board space requirements, and increases reliability. Applying power to the device activates the power-on reset circuit which holds RESET/RESET active for a period of time. This allows the power supply and oscillator to stabilize before the processor can execute code. The Watchdog Timer provides an independent protection mechanism for microcontrollers. When the microcontroller fails to restart a timer within a selectable time out interval, the device activates the RESET/RESET signal. The user selects the interval from three preset values. Once selected, the interval does not change, even after cycling the power. The Device's low VCCdetection circuitry protects the user's system from low voltage conditions, resetting the system when VCCfalls below the minimum VCCtrip point. RESET/RESET is asserted until VCCreturns to proper operating level and stabilizes. Five industry standardTRIPthresholds are available, however, Intersil's unique circuits allow the threshold to be reprogrammed to meet custom requirements or to fine-tune the threshold for applications requiring higher precision.

The X60003 FGA™ voltage references is a very high precision analog voltage reference fabricated in Intersil’s proprietary Floating Gate Analog technology, which achieves superior levels of performance when compared to conventional band gap, buried zener, or XFET™ technologies. FGA™ voltage references feature very high initial accuracy, very low temperature coefficient, excellent long term stability, low noise and excellent line and load regulation, at the lowest power consumption currently available. These voltage references enable advanced applications for precision industrial and portable systems operating at significantly higher accuracy and lower power levels than can be achieved with conventional technologies.
