Pin-Selectable Watchdog Timers
General Description
The MAX6369–MAX6374 are pin-selectable watchdog
timers that supervise microprocessor (µP) activity and
signal when a system is operating improperly. During
normal operation, the microprocessor should repeated-
ly toggle the watchdog input (WDI) before the selected
watchdog timeout period elapses to demonstrate that
the system is processing code properly. If the µP does
not provide a valid watchdog input transition before the
timeout period expires, the supervisor asserts a watch-
dog (WDO) output to signal that the system is not exe-
cuting the desired instructions within the expected time
frame. The watchdog output pulse can be used to reset
the µP or interrupt the system to warn of processing
errors.
The MAX6369–MAX6374 are flexible watchdog timer
supervisors that can increase system reliability through
notification of code execution errors. The family offers
several pin-selectable watchdog timing options to
match a wide range of system timing applications:
• Watchdog startup delay: provides an initial delay
before the watchdog timer is started.
• Watchdog timeout period: normal operating watch-
dog timeout period after the initial startup delay.
• Watchdog output/timing options: open drain (100ms)
or push-pull (1ms).
The MAX6369–MAX6374 operate over a +2.5V to +5.5V
supply range and are available in miniature 8-pin
SOT23 packages.

FUNCTION
Watchdog Input. If WDI remains either high or low for the duration of the watchdog timeout period (t
WD
),
WDO
triggers a pulse. The internal watchdog timer clears whenever a
WDO
is asserted or whenever WDI sees a
rising or falling edge.
Ground
Not Connected. Do not make any connection to this pin.
Set Zero. Logic input for selecting startup delay and watchdog timeout periods. See Table 1 for timing details.
Set One. Logic input for selecting startup delay and watchdog timeout periods. See Table 1 for timing details.
Set Two. Logic input for selecting startup delay and watchdog timeout periods. See Table 1 for timing details.
Watchdog Output. Pulses low for the watchdog output pulse width, t
WDO
, when the internal watchdog times
out. The MAX6369/MAX6371/MAX6373 have open-drain outputs and require a pull-up resistor. The
MAX6370/MAX6372/MAX6374 outputs are push-pull.

Detailed Description
The MAX6369–MAX6374 are flexible watchdog circuits
for monitoring µP activity. During normal operation, the
internal timer is cleared each time the µP toggles the
WDI with a valid logic transition (low to high or high to
low) within the selected timeout period (t
WD
). The
WDO
remains high as long as the input is strobed within the
selected timeout period. If the input is not strobed
before the timeout period expires, the watchdog output
is asserted low for the watchdog output pulse width
(t
WDO
). The device type and the state of the three logic
control pins (SET0, SET1, and SET2) determine watch-
dog timing characteristics. The three basic timing varia-
tions for the watchdog startup delay and the normal
watchdog timeout period are summarized below (see
Table 1 for the timeout characteristics for all devices in
the family):
• Watchdog Startup Delay:
Provides an initial delay before the watchdog timer is
started.
Allows time for the µP system to power up and initial-
ize before assuming responsibility for normal watch-
dog timer updates.
Includes several fixed or pin-selectable startup delay
options from 200µs to 60s, and an option to wait for
the first watchdog input transition before starting the
watchdog timer.
