Watchdog Window
Calculation
U6813B
Example with recommended values
Cosc = 6.8 nF (should be preferably 10%, NPO)
Rosc = 36 kW (can be 5%, Rosc < 200 kW due to leakage current and humidity)
RC oscillator
tWDC (s) = 10-3 [Cosc (nF) [(0.00078 Rosc (kW)) + 0.0005]]
fWDC (Hz) = 1 / (tWDC)
Watchdog WDI
fWDI (Hz) = 0.01 fWDC
tWDC = 200 µs ® fWDC = 5 kHz
fWDI = 50 Hz ® tWDI = 20 ms
WDI pulse width for fault detection after 3 pulses:
Upper watchdog window
Minimum: 169/ fWDC = 33.8 ms -> fWDC/ 169 = 29.55 Hz
Maximum: 170/ fWDC = 34 ms -> fWDC/ 170 = 29.4 Hz
Lower watchdog window
Minimum: 79/ fWDC = 15.8 ms -> fWDC / 79 = 63.3 Hz
Maximum: 80/ fWDC = 16 ms -> fWDC / 80 = 62.5 Hz
WDI dropouts for immediate fault detection:
Minimum: 250/ fWDC = 50.0 ms
Maximum: 251/ fWDC = 50.2 ms
Remarks to reset relay
The duration of the over- or undervoltage pulses determines the enable- and reset out-
puts. A pulse duration shorter than the debounce time has no effect on the outputs. A
pulse longer than the debounce time results in the first reset delay. If a pulse appears
during this delay, a second delay time is triggered. Therefore, the total reset delay time
can be longer than specified in the data sheet.
