DESCRIPTION
The DS1831 Multi-Supply Monitor & Reset monitors up to 4 system voltages: 5 volt supply, 3.3
(or 3) volt supply, and 2 additional user configurable voltage monitors. DS1831 power for internal
operation comes from the higher voltage level of the 3.3 volt input or the 5 volt input. One of these
inputs must be greater than 1 volt for device operation. Pushbutton (manual reset) functionality is
provided for the 5 volt reset, the 3.3 volt reset or for all reset outputs by the master pushbutton. The
DS1831A replaces one referen ce comparator and the master pushbutton with watchdog and the DS1831B
replaces the 3.3-volt PBRST with a last reset status output.

OPERATION – POWER MONITOR
The DS1831 provides the functions of detecting out-of-toleran ce conditions on a 3.3 (or 3) volt and 5 volt
power supply and warning a processor based system of impending power failure. When an input is
detected as out-of-tolerance on either voltage input the RST for that supply will be forced active low.
When that input returns to a valid state the associated RST will remain active for the time delay selected
with the associated TD input and then return to an inactive state until the next input out-of-tolerance
condition.
On power-up both resets are kept active for the sele cted r eset time after the associat ed powe r suppl y input
has reached the selected tolerance. This allows the power supply and system power to stabilize before
RST is released.
All internal operating current for the DS1831 will be supplied by either the IN3.3V or IN5V input which
ever has the highest voltage level.
OPERATION - TOLERANCE SELECT
The DS1831 provides 2 TOL inputs for individual customization of the DS1831 to specific application
requirements. If the TOL for the 5 volt suppl y is tied to the 5 volt input a 5% toler ance is sele cted. If the
TOL is connected to ground a 10% tolerance is selected or if it is left unconnected a 15% tolerance is
selected. If the TOL for the 3.3 volt suppl y is tied to the 3.3 volt input a 5% tolerance is selected, a 10 %
tolerance is selected if it is connected to ground, and a 20% tolerance is selected if the input is left
unconnected. These tolerance conditions are set at power up and can only be changed by power cycling
the device.
OPERATION - RESET TIME-DELAY SELECT
The DS1831 provides 2 TD inputs for individual customization of reset time-delays and an additional one
for the DS1831A watchdog. TD inputs select time delays for the IN5V and IN3.3V resets outputs and the
Watchdog on the DS1831A. The reset time delays are shown in table 1. These allow the selection of
minimum delays of 10 ms, 100 ms, and 1000 ms.
Wiring an individual reset output to the push-button input of the other voltage reset allows custom reset
timings or allows for the sequencing of the reset outputs. See figure 2.
These time-delays are set at power-up and cannot be changed after the device reaches an in-tolerance
condition.

PUSHBUTTON RESET SEQUENCING Figure 2
*NOTE:
The RST 5V output is connected to the IN3.3V via a 100 k resistor in the push-button input and therefore
does not require a pull-up resistor (an addition pull up can be used to acc elera te r esponses.) If an ex ternal
pull up is used in this example it must be connected to the 3.3 volt power supply.
OPERATION - PUSHBUTTON RESET
The DS1831 provides 3 pushbutton inputs for manual reset of the device. Pushbutton inputs for the
3.3 volt reset, 5 volt reset, and a master pushbutton reset (DS1831 & DS1831B only) input; provide
multiple options for system control. The 3.3 volt pushbutton reset and 5 volt pushbutton resets provide a
simple manual reset for the associated reset output; while the master pushbutton reset forces all resets and
NMI outputs active low.
The 5 volt reset pushbutton input and the 3.3 volt reset pushbutton input provide manual reset control
input for each associated reset output. When the output associated with a pushbutton input is not active, a
pushbutton reset can be generated by pulling the associated PBRST pin low for at least 20 µs. When the
pushbutton is held low the reset will be forced active and will remain active for a reset cycle after the
pushbutton is released. See figure 2 for an application example that allows a user to sequence the reset
outputs.
A master pushbutton reset cycle can be started if at least one voltage input (IN5V, IN3.3V, IN1, or IN2) is in
tolerance and at least 1 output is active. A master pushbutton reset is generated by pulling the MPBRST
pin low for at least 20 µs. When the pushbutton is held low all outputs are forced active and will remain
active for a reset or NMI time delay after the pushbutton is released. The Master Pushbutton input is
pulled high through an internal 100 k pull up resistor and debounced via internal cir cuitry. See figure 3
for an application example. Figures 4 and 5 for the timing diagram.
The 5 volt and 3.3 volt pushbutton reset inputs are pulled high through an internal 100 k pull up resistor
to the voltage input, which is associated with that pushbutton. The master pushbutton is pulled to the
greater of the “IN5V” and “IN3.3V” inputs.
*Caution should be exercised to avoid pulling the pushbutton inputs above associated supply inputs.
Generally all pushbutton inputs should be driven low with open drain inputs.

OPERATION – PUSHBUTTON STATUS
The DS1831B provides a master pushbutton status open drain output. The PBST output indicates the
status of the most recent reset condition. If the last reset was generated by the master pushbutton input it
would maintain a low condition until cleared by another ev ent (except the master pushbutton) generating
a reset. Once cleared it will remain high until the master pushbutton is pulled low generating a reset
condition. The PBST output is open drain and will require a pull-up resistor on the output to maintain a
valid condition. The value of the pull up resistor is not critical in most cases but must be set low enough
to pull the output to a high state. A common value used is 10 ks (See Figure 6).

OUTPUT VALID CONDITIONS
The DS1831 can maintain valid outputs as long as one input remains above 1.0 volt. Accurate voltage
monitoring additionally requires that either the 3.3 volt IN or 5 volt IN input be above 1.5 volts. If this
condition is not met and at least one of the supply inputs are at or above 1.0 volt all outputs are
maintained in the active condition. The DS1831 requires pull-up resistors on the outputs to maintain a
valid output. The value of the pull up resistor is not critical in most cases but must be set low enough to
pull the output to a high state. A common pull-up resistor value used is 10 ks (See Figure 7).
APPLICATION DIAGRAM - OPEN DRAIN OUTPUTS Figure 7
NOTE:
If outputs are at different voltages the outputs can not be connected to form a wired AND.
OPERATION - NON-MASKABLE INTERRUPT
The DS1831 has 2 referenced compar ator (DS1831A has only 1 referenced c omparator) that can be used
to monitor upstream voltages or other system specific voltages. Each comparator is referenced to the
1.25 volt internal band gap reference and controls an open drain output. When a voltage bein g monitored
decays to the voltage sense point, the DS1831 pulses the NMI output to the active state for a minimum 10
µs. The comparator detection circuitry also has built-in hysteresis of 100 µV. The suppl y must be below
the voltage sense point for approximately 2 µs before a low NMI will be generated. In this way, power
supply noise is minimized in the monitoring function, reducing false interrupts. See Figure 8 for the
Non-maskable timing diagram.
Versatile trip voltages can be configured by the use of an external resistor divider to divide the voltage at
a sense point to the 1.25 volt trip levels of the referenced comparators. See figure 9 for an example
circuit diagram and sample equations. The equations demonstrate a design process to determine the
resistor values to use.
Connecting one or both NMI outputs to one of the reset specific PBRST ’s allows the non-maskable
interrupt to generate an automatic reset for the reset time period when an out-of-tolerance condition
occurs in a monitored supply. An example is shown in Figure 9.

The output associated with the specific input will be held low if the voltage on the input pin is less than
1.25 volts. If the voltage is above 1.25 volts the output will not sink current and will be pulled up b y the
required pull up resistor. The value of the resistors is not critical in most cases but must be set low
enough to pull the output to a high state. A common value used is 10 ks. If a NMI output is connected
to a pushbutton input an additional pull-up resistor can be used (to improve speed of transitions) but is not
required.
During a power-up, an y detected IN pin levels above VTP b y the comparat or are di sabled from generatin g
an inactive (high) interrupt until at least 1 supply on the VIN inputs rises above 1.5 volts. All NMI outputs
will be held active (low) until at least one VIN reaches 1.5 volts at which point the NMI outputs will be
based on the value of the associated IN input.

Repeat the same steps to solve for R3 and R4 with VSENSE2.
OPERATION - WATCHDOG TIMER
The watchdog timer function (DS1831A only) forces the WDS signal active (low) when the ST input
does not have a transition (high-to-low or low-to-high) within the predetermined time period. The time-
out period is determined by the condition of the TDWD pin. If TDWD is co nnect ed to ground the minimum
watchdog time-out would be 10 ms, TD floating would yield a minimum time-out of 100 ms, and TDWD
connected to VCC would provide a time-out of 1000 ms minimum. Time-out of the watchdo g starts when
at least one of the RST outputs becomes inactive (high). If a transition occurs on the ST input pin prior to
time-out, the watchdog timer is reset and begins to time-out again. If the watchdog timer is allowed to
time-out, then the WDS output is pulsed active for a minimum of 100 µs.
The WDS output is an open-drain output and must be pulled up externally. In most applications this
output would be connected to one of the Pushbutton inputs and would not require an external pull-up
resistor. The value of the resistors is not critical in most cases but must be set low enough to pull the
output to a high state. A common value used is 10 ks. If a WDS output is connected to a pushbutton
input an additional pull-up resistor can be used (to improve speed of transitions) but is not required.

The ST input can be derived from many microprocessor outputs. The most typical signals used are the
microprocessor address signals, data signals, or control signals. When the microprocessor functions
normally, these signals would, as a matter of routine, cause the watchdog to be reset prior to time-out. To
guarantee that the watchdog timer does not time-out, a transition must occur at or less than the minimum
times shown in Table 1. A typical circuit example is shown in Figure 10. The w atchdo g timing is shown
in Figure 11.
The DS1831A watchdog function cannot be disabled. The watchdog strobe input must be strobed to avoid
a watchdog time-out however the watchdog status output can be disconnected yielding the same result.
