ADuC812

POWER SUPPLY MONITOR

As its name suggests, the Power Supply Monitor, once enabled, monitors both supplies (AVDD and DVDD) on the ADuC812. It will indicate when either power supply drops below one of five user-selectable voltage trip points from 2.63 V to 4.63 V. For correct operation of the Power Supply Monitor function, AVDD must be equal to or greater than 2.7 V. The Power Supply Monitor function is controlled via the PSMCON SFR. If enabled via the IE2 SFR, the Power Supply Monitor will interrupt

the core using the PSMI bit in the PSMCON SFR. This bit will not be cleared until the failing power supply has returned above the trip point for at least 256 ms. This is to ensure that the power supply has fully settled before the bit is cleared. This monitor function allows the user to save working registers to avoid possible data loss due to the low supply condition, and also ensures that normal code execution will not resume until a safe supply level has been well established. The supply monitor is also protected against spurious glitches triggering the interrupt circuit.

CMP

AVDD and DVDD Comparator Bit.

 

 

 

This is a read-only bit and directly reflects the state of the AVDD and DVDD comparators.

 

 

Read “1” indicates that both AVDD and DVDD supply are above its selected trip point.

 

 

Read “0” indicates that either AVDD or DVDD supply are below its selected trip point.

5

PSMI

Power Supply Monitor Interrupt Bit.

 

 

This bit will be set high by the MicroConverter if CMP is low, indicating low analog

 

 

or digital supply. The PSMI bit can be used to interrupt the processor. Once CMPD

 

 

and/or CMP return (and remain) high, a 256 ms counter is started. When this counter

 

 

times out, the PSMI interrupt is cleared. PSMI can also be written by the user. How

 

 

ever, if either comparator output is low, it is not possible for the user to clear PSMI.

AVDD/DVDD fault indicator

 

 

 

Read “1” indicates that the AVDD supply caused the fault condition.

 

 

Read “0” indicates that the DVDD supply caused the fault condition.

0

PSMEN

Power Supply Monitor Enable Bit.

 

 

 

Set to “1” by the user to enable the Power Supply Monitor Circuit.

 

 

Cleared to “0” by the user to disable the Power Supply Monitor Circuit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Example

To configure the PSM for a trippoint of 4.37 V, the following code would be used

MOV

PSMCON,#005h

;enable PSM with

 

 

;4.37V threshold

SETB

EA

;enable

MOV

IE2,#002h

;enable

If the supply voltage falls below this level, the PC would vector to the ISR.
