Product details

Overview

X40431S14-C from Xicor (now part of Renesas) is a triple-voltage CPU supervisor IC with integrated 4Kbit EEPROM, watchdog timer, and manual reset input-designed for embedded systems requiring coordinated power-up sequencing, brownout protection, and nonvolatile configuration storage. It monitors VCC, V2MON, and V3MON at factory-programmed thresholds (4.55–4.65 V, 2.85–2.95 V, and 1.65–1.75 V respectively), asserts active-low RESET and WDO outputs, and operates from 2.7 V to 5.5 V with 25 µA standby current (watchdog enabled).

For engineers reviewing the X40431S14-C datasheet, X40431S14-C pinout, X40431S14-C application, or X40431S14-C equivalent, this device serves as a system-level power integrity and firmware resilience component in network infrastructure, industrial controllers, and server platforms where multi-rail voltage supervision and tamper-resistant EEPROM are required.

Technical Context

The X40431S14-C implements independent comparator-based monitoring for three voltage rails: VCC (V1MON), V2MON, and V3MON-with dedicated open-drain fail outputs (LOWLINE, V2FAIL, V3FAIL) and programmable reset timeout (50/200/400/800 ms). Its watchdog logic responds to I²C bus activity on SDA/SCL, supporting 25 ms, 200 ms, or 1.4 s timeouts-or disabled state.

It integrates a 4Kbit (512 × 8) serial EEPROM with Block Lock™ write protection, 400 kHz I²C-compatible 2-wire interface, 5 ms typical byte-write cycle, and Direct Write™ memory cells rated for ≥100,000 endurance cycles and ≥100 years data retention. Thresholds for VTRIP2 and VTRIP3 are reprogrammable via high-voltage sequence on WDO.

Key Specifications

Parameter Value and Actual Design Meaning
VCC Range 2.7 V to 5.5 V - supports operation across standard logic supply rails without external regulation.
VTRIP1 Range 4.55–4.65 V - factory-set threshold for primary supply (VCC) brownout detection and power-on reset assertion.
VTRIP2 Range 2.85–2.95 V - factory-set threshold for secondary supply (V2MON) monitoring, e.g., 3.0 V rail.
VTRIP3 Range 1.65–1.75 V - factory-set threshold for tertiary supply (V3MON) monitoring, e.g., 1.8 V core rail.
Standby Current 25 µA typical (watchdog enabled) - enables low-power system supervision during sleep modes.
I²C Speed 400 kHz - compatible with standard Fast-mode I²C buses for EEPROM access and register configuration.
EEPROM Endurance ≥100,000 write cycles - ensures reliable logging, calibration storage, or boot configuration updates over product lifetime.
Reset Timeout Options 50 ms / 200 ms (default) / 400 ms / 800 ms - selectable via nonvolatile control bits to match processor startup timing requirements.

Pinout & Package

Package: 14-lead SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) and TSSOP (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package), both RoHS-compliant and pin-compatible.

Pin/Terminal Circuit Role Design Meaning
1 V2FAIL Open-drain voltage fail output Asserts LOW when V2MON falls below VTRIP2; used for early warning or OR'd with RESET for system halt.
2 V2MON Secondary voltage monitor input Accepts direct connection to 3.0 V rail or resistor-divided unregulated supply; comparator powered by V2MON itself.
3 LOWLINE Early VCC fail indicator CMOS output that goes LOW before RESET-enables preemptive shutdown or status logging prior to full reset.
4 NC No connect Not bonded; must remain unconnected per design.
5 MR Debounced manual reset input Pull LOW to initiate system reset; internal debounce eliminates need for external RC filter.
6 RESET Active-low open-drain reset output Drives microcontroller / FPGA reset line; remains asserted until VCC exceeds VTRIP1 and tPURST elapses.
7 VSS Ground reference Primary return path for all analog comparators, digital logic, and EEPROM circuitry.
8 SDA Bidirectional I²C data line Open-drain interface for EEPROM read/write and control register access; requires external pull-up.
9 SCL I²C clock input Master-generated clock synchronizing all serial transfers; no internal clock generation.
10 WP Hardware write protect input HIGH disables all writes-including EEPROM, control registers, and VTRIP programming-to prevent accidental corruption.
11 V3MON Tertiary voltage monitor input Monitors third rail (e.g., 1.8 V); comparator powered directly by V3MON-functional even if VCC = 0.
12 V3FAIL Open-drain tertiary fail output Asserts LOW when V3MON < VTRIP3; supports independent interrupt or cascaded reset logic.
13 WDO Watchdog timeout output Active-low open-drain signal asserting on watchdog expiration; can drive reset generator or fault latch.
14 VCC Main supply input Power source for digital logic, EEPROM controller, and V1MON comparator; powers internal reset generator.

Key Features

Feature Design Value
Triple independent voltage supervision Simultaneous monitoring of VCC, V2MON, and V3MON with separate fail outputs-eliminates need for three discrete supervisors and reduces BOM count.
Reprogrammable VTRIP thresholds VTRIP2 and VTRIP3 can be adjusted in-system using high-voltage programming sequence on WDO-enables field calibration without hardware change.
Integrated 4Kbit EEPROM with Block Lock™ 16-byte page write mode and software/hardware write protection-secures boot parameters, MAC addresses, or calibration data against unintended overwrite.
Selectable watchdog timeout 25 ms / 200 ms / 1.4 s options set via nonvolatile control bits-matches diverse MCU instruction throughput and recovery latency requirements.
Debounced manual reset input Internal RC filtering on MR pin removes switch bounce-removes need for external debounce components and saves PCB area.
Fault Detection Register (FDR) Volatile 8-bit register (address 0xFF) reporting root cause of last reset (LV1F/LV2F/LV3F/WDF/MRF)-enables automated diagnostics and failure mode analysis.

Applications

Network Router Power Management Industrial PLC Voltage Monitoring

Use Scenario: A dual-core network router uses separate 5 V, 3.3 V, and 1.8 V rails for CPU, PHY, and DDR interface; brownout on any rail must trigger immediate controlled shutdown.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: X40431S14-C acts as centralized power supervisor-asserting RESET on VCC collapse, V2FAIL on 3.3 V droop, and V3FAIL on 1.8 V sag, while logging fault cause in FDR.

Use Value: Prevents corrupted packet forwarding or flash writes during undervoltage, reducing field failures and enabling post-mortem root-cause analysis via FDR read.

Use Scenario: An industrial programmable logic controller monitors 24 V DC input, 5 V logic, and 3.3 V I/O rail; voltage deviations must trigger alarm before safety-critical outputs deactivate.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: X40431S14-C functions as real-time voltage integrity monitor-using LOWLINE for early warning, V2FAIL for 5 V fault, and V3FAIL for 3.3 V fault, feeding interrupts to main controller.

Use Value: Enables predictive maintenance alerts and graceful I/O shutdown sequences instead of abrupt lockup, meeting IEC 61508 functional safety timing constraints.

Server Baseboard Management Embedded Storage Controller

Use Scenario: A rack-mount server baseboard manages 12 V, 5 V, and 3.3 V supplies for CPU, memory, and peripherals; EEPROM stores SMBIOS data and thermal calibration offsets.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: X40431S14-C provides coordinated power-on reset, brownout reset, and secure nonvolatile storage-RESET holds CPU until all rails stabilize, EEPROM retains configuration across hot-swap events.

Use Value: Ensures deterministic boot behavior and preserves critical firmware metadata without external SPI flash or backup battery.

Use Scenario: A SAS/SATA storage controller board uses 5 V, 3.3 V, and 1.2 V rails; EEPROM stores vendor-specific drive initialization tables and error correction parameters.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: X40431S14-C serves as combined supervisor and configuration store-V3MON monitors 1.2 V core, WP pin prevents runtime EEPROM corruption during firmware updates.

Use Value: Guarantees data integrity during power transitions and eliminates risk of invalid drive initialization due to partial EEPROM writes.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar CPU supervisor with EEPROM applications.

Alternative Part Technical Difference Application Difference Selection Advice
MAX6816ESE+ Single-voltage supervisor (5 V only) with debounced MR and no EEPROM; 16-pin SOIC package. Lacks triple monitoring, EEPROM, and watchdog-suitable only for simple 5 V-only systems without configuration storage needs. Select when cost sensitivity outweighs feature requirements and system has external nonvolatile storage.
TPS3808G33DBVR Dual-voltage supervisor (3.3 V + adjustable second rail) with watchdog and reset delay; no EEPROM; SOT-23-6 package. Supports only two monitored rails and lacks integrated memory-requires external I²C EEPROM for configuration storage. Choose for space-constrained designs needing compact dual-rail supervision but accepting added BOM complexity.

Compared with MAX6816ESE+ and TPS3808G33DBVR, the X40431S14-C uniquely consolidates triple-rail supervision, EEPROM, watchdog, and manual reset into one 14-pin package-reducing board area by ~40% and eliminating inter-component timing skew in multi-rail power sequencing.

FAQ

What voltage thresholds are factory-programmed in the X40431S14-C?

The X40431S14-C ships with VTRIP1 = 4.55–4.65 V (for VCC), VTRIP2 = 2.85–2.95 V (for V2MON), and VTRIP3 = 1.65–1.75 V (for V3MON). These values are laser-trimmed during test and remain stable over temperature and time unless reprogrammed using the high-voltage VTRIP programming sequence defined in the datasheet.

Can the X40431S14-C monitor voltages below 1.0 V?

No-the X40431S14-C is not specified to monitor voltages below 0.9 V. Its V3MON input supports down to 0.9 V per the "Monitor Voltages: 5V to 0.9V" specification, and VTRIP3 minimum setting is 0.95–1.05 V for X40434/35 variants-but the X40431S14-C variant has a fixed 1.65–1.75 V VTRIP3 range and cannot be programmed lower than 1.65 V.

How does the X40431S14-C handle power-up reset timing?

The X40431S14-C asserts RESET at power-on and holds it active until VCC exceeds VTRIP1 and remains stable for the selected tPURST delay (50/200/400/800 ms). This delay is set via nonvolatile PUP1/PUP0 bits in the Control Register and defaults to 200 ms. The timing ensures microcontrollers and FPGAs complete initialization before release.

Is the EEPROM in the X40431S14-C accessible during reset assertion?

No-the X40431S14-C blocks I²C access to the EEPROM during active RESET assertion to prevent data corruption. The device disables SDA/SCL response until RESET is deasserted and VCC stabilizes above VTRIP1, ensuring safe EEPROM reads/writes only during valid operating conditions.

Does the X40431S14-C support I²C bus arbitration or multi-master operation?

No-the X40431S14-C operates strictly as an I²C slave device with fixed 7-bit address 0xA0 (write) / 0xA1 (read). It does not implement bus arbitration logic or clock stretching, and is intended for use on dedicated I²C segments controlled by a single master-typically the host microcontroller.
