MAX8211CPA+ - Maxim Integrated

________________General Description

Maxim’s MAX8211 and MAX8212 are CMOS micropower

voltage detectors that warn microprocessors (µPs) of

power failures. Each contains a comparator, a 1.5V

bandgap reference, and an open-drain n-channel output

driver. Two external resistors are used in conjunction with

the internal reference to set the trip voltage to the desired

level. A hysteresis output is also included, allowing the user

to apply positive feedback for noise-free output switching.

The MAX8211 provides a 7mA current-limited output sink

whenever the voltage applied to the threshold pin is less

than the 1.5V internal reference. In the MAX8212, a voltage

greater than 1.5V at the threshold pin turns the output

stage on (no current limit).

The CMOS MAX8211/MAX8212 are plug-in replacements

for the bipolar ICL8211/ICL8212 in applications where the

maximum supply voltage is less than 16.5V. They offer sev-

eral performance advantages, including reduced supply

current, a more tightly controlled bandgap reference, and

more available current from the hysteresis output.

Note 1: The maximum output current of the MAX8211 is limited by design to 30mA under any operating condition. The output voltage

may be sustained at any voltage up to +16.5V as long as the maximum power dissipation of the device is not exceeded.

Note 2: The maximum output current of the MAX8212 is not defined, and systems using the MAX8212 must therefore ensure that the

output current does not exceed 50mA and that the maximum power dissipation of the device is not exceeded.

_______________Detailed Description

As shown in the block diagrams of Figures 1 and 2, the

MAX8211 and MAX8212 each contain a 1.15V refer-

ence, a comparator, an open-drain n-channel output

transistor, and an open-drain p-channel hysteresis out-

put. The MAX8211 output n-channel turns on when the

voltage applied to the THRESH pin is less than the

internal reference (1.15V). The sink current is limited to

7mA (typical), allowing direct drive of an LED without a

series resistor. The MAX8212 output turns on when the

voltage applied to THRESH is greater than the internal

reference. It is not current limited, and will typically sink

35mA.

Compatibility with ICL8211/ICL8212

The CMOS MAX8211/MAX8212 are plug-in replacements

for the bipolar ICL8211/ICL8212 in most applications.

The use of CMOS technology has several advantages.

The quiescent supply current is much less than in the

bipolar parts. Higher-value resistors can also be used

in the networks that set up the trip voltage, since the

comparator input (THRESH pin) is a low-leakage

MOSFET transistor. This further reduces system current

drain. The tolerance of the internal reference has also

been significantly improved, allowing for more precise

voltage detection without the use of potentiometers.

The available current from the HYST output has been

increased from 21µA to 10mA, making the hysteresis

feature easier to use. The disparity between the HYST

output and the voltage required at THRESH to switch

the OUT pin has also been reduced in the MAX8211

from 8mV to 0.1mV to eliminate output “chatter” or

oscillation.

Most voltage detection circuits operate with supplies of

15V or less; in these applications, the MAX8211/

MAX8212 will replace ICL8211/ICL8212s with the per-

formance advantages described above. However, note

that the CMOS parts have an absolute maximum sup-

ply-voltage rating of 18V, and should never be used in

applications where this rating could be exceeded.

Exercise caution when replacing ICL8211/ICL8212s in

closed-loop applications such as programmable

zeners. Although neither the ICL8211/ICL8212 nor the

MAX8211/MAX8212 are internally compensated, the

CMOS parts have higher gain and may not be stable

for the external compensation-capacitor values used in

lower-gain ICL8211/ICL8212 circuits.

__________Applications Information

Basic Voltage Detectors

Figure 3 shows the basic circuit for both undervoltage

detection (MAX8211) and overvoltage detection

(MAX8212). For applications where no hysteresis is

needed, R3 should be omitted. The ratio of R1 to R2 is

then chosen such that, for the desired trip voltage at VIN,

1.15V is applied to the THRESH pin. Since the com-

parator inputs are very low-leakage MOSFET transis-

tors, the MAX8211/MAX8212 can use much higher

resistors values in the attenuator network than can the

bipolar ICL8211/ICL8212. See Table 1 for switching

delays.

Table 1. Switching Delays

Voltage Detectors with Hysteresis

To ensure noise-free output switching, hysteresis is

frequently used in voltage detectors. For both the

MAX8211 and MAX8212 the HYST output is on for

threshold voltages greater than 1.15V. R3 (Figure 3)

controls the amount of current (positive feedback) sup-

plied from the HYST output to the mid-point of the resis-

tor divider, and hence the magnitude of the hysteresis,

or dead-band.

Low-Voltage Detector for Logic Supply

The circuit of Figure 5 will detect when a 5.0V (nominal)

supply goes below 4.5V, which is the VMIN normally

specified in logic systems. The selected resistor values

ensure that false undervoltage alarms will not be gener-

ated, even with worst-case threshold trip values and

resistor tolerances. R3 provides approximately 75mV of

hysteresis.
