SCPS196E December 2010 – February 2017 TCA9554A
PRODUCTION DATA.
In the event of a glitch or data corruption, the TCA9554A can be reset to its default conditions by using the power-on reset feature. Power-on reset requires that the device go through a power cycle to be completely reset. This reset also happens when the device is powered on for the first time in an application.
The power-on reset is shown in Figure 31.
Table 8 specifies the performance of the power-on reset feature for the TCA9554A.
PARAMETER | MIN | MAX | UNIT | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
VCC_FT | Fall rate | See Figure 31 | 1 | 2000 | ms |
VCC_RT | Rise rate | See Figure 31 | 0.1 | 2000 | ms |
VCC_TRR | Time to re-ramp (when VCC drops to VPOR_MIN – 50 mV or when VCC drops to GND) | See Figure 31 | 2 | μs | |
VCC_GH | Level that VCCP can glitch down to, but not cause a functional disruption when VCC_GW = 1 μs | See Figure 32 | 1.2 | V | |
VCC_MV | The minimum voltage that VCC can glitch down to without causing a reset (VCC_GH must not be violated) | See Figure 32 | 1.5 | V | |
VCC_GW | Glitch width that does not cause a functional disruption when VCC_GH = 0.5 × VCC | See Figure 32 | 10 | μs |
Glitches in the power supply can also affect the power-on reset performance of this device. The glitch width (VCC_GW) and height (VCC_GH) are dependent on each other. The bypass capacitance, source impedance, and device impedance are factors that affect power-on reset performance. Figure 32 and Table 8 provide more information on how to measure these specifications.
VPORR is critical to the power-on reset. VPORR is the voltage level at which the reset condition is released and all the registers and the I2C/SMBus state machine are initialized to their default states. The value of power-on-reset voltage differs based on the VCC being lowered to or from 0 (VPORR or VPORF). Figure 33 and Table 8 provide more details on this specification.
