The AD5100 is a programmable system management IC that combines four channels of voltage monitoring and watchdog supervision. The AD5100 can be used to shut down external supplies, reset processors, or disable any other system electron-ics when the system malfunctions. The AD5100 can also be used to protect systems from improper device power-up sequencing. The AD5100, a robust watchdog reset controller, can monitor two 30 V inputs with shutdown and reset controls, one 2.3 V to 5.0 V input, and one 1.6 V to 7.96 V input. Most monitoring input thresholds and timing settings can be programmed on-the-fly or permanently set with the OTP memory feature.
