Product details
Overview
X40626S14I-4.5A from Xicor (now part of Renesas) is a dual-voltage CPU supervisor IC integrating power-on reset control, watchdog timer, low-VCC monitoring, and 64 Kbit serial EEPROM. It features user-programmable VTRIP threshold (factory-set to 4.5 V), 200 ms reset timeout, 400 kHz I2C interface, and Block Lock™ EEPROM protection - deployed in industrial microcontroller systems requiring reliable brownout recovery and nonvolatile configuration storage.
For engineers reviewing the X40626S14I-4.5A datasheet, X40626S14I-4.5A pinout, X40626S14I-4.5A application, or X40626S14I-4.5A equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-supply monitoring capability (VCC + V2MON), programmable reset threshold, open-drain RESET/V2FAIL outputs, 14-pin SOIC/TSSOP package, and EEPROM page-write endurance (100,000 cycles).
Technical Context
The X40626S14I-4.5A implements independent voltage supervision for VCC and V2MON, with separate comparator circuits driving active-low open-drain RESET and V2FAIL outputs. Its watchdog timer monitors SDA transitions during SCL HIGH and supports three timeout intervals (200 ms, 600 ms, 1.4 s) via nonvolatile WD1/WD0 bits.
EEPROM functionality uses a 64-byte page architecture with Direct Write™ cells, supporting byte/page writes over a 2-wire I2C bus (up to 4 devices per bus). Block Lock™ protection is controlled by BP2–BP0 bits and hardware WP pin, enabling selective write lock of 64–8192 bytes or full array.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Threshold | 4.5 V nominal; factory-programmed trip point, reprogrammable via VP on WP pin for precision system-level brownout detection. |
| Reset Timeout | 200 ms typical; ensures stable power and oscillator startup before processor release, preventing premature code execution. |
| Watchdog Timeout | Selectable 200 ms / 600 ms / 1.4 s; nonvolatile setting prevents accidental change across power cycles. |
| EEPROM Capacity | 64 Kbit (8 K × 8); organized as 1024 pages of 64 bytes, enabling efficient firmware parameter storage with page-write efficiency. |
| I2C Interface | 400 kHz max clock rate; supports up to 4 slave addresses (S0/S1 pins), compatible with standard I2C protocol and open-drain bus topology. |
| Supply Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V; enables operation across wide-input industrial power rails without external regulation. |
| Standby Current | 20 µA max with watchdog enabled; critical for battery-backed or low-power embedded systems maintaining supervision state. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 14-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) or TSSOP (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package), both RoHS-compliant and surface-mount compatible.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 4, 6, 13 | NC | No internal connection; must be left unconnected or tied to ground per layout best practice. |
| 2, 3 | S0, S1 | Device select inputs; configure I2C slave address (00–11) to support up to four X40626 devices on same bus. |
| 5 | RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output; asserts during VCC undervoltage, watchdog timeout, or power-up; requires external pull-up. |
| 7 | VSS | Ground reference; primary return path for all internal circuits and I2C interface. |
| 8 | SDA | Bidirectional I2C data line; open-drain structure allows wire-OR with other slaves; also serves as watchdog trigger input. |
| 9 | SCL | I2C clock input; synchronous timing reference for all EEPROM read/write and register access operations. |
| 10 | V2FAIL | Active-low open-drain V2 monitor fail output; independent of VCC reset logic; used for secondary supply fault signaling. |
| 11 | V2MON | Secondary voltage monitor input; accepts direct connection to auxiliary rail or resistor divider for custom VTRIP2 setting. |
| 12 | WP | Hardware write protect input; when HIGH with WPEN bit set, blocks all EEPROM and control register writes including Block Lock changes. |
| 14 | VCC | Main supply voltage input; powers all internal functions including reset generator, watchdog, and EEPROM core; range 2.7–5.5 V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| User-programmable VTRIP | Factory-set to 4.5 V but reconfigurable via VP pulse on WP pin - enables precise brownout tuning without component change. |
| Dual independent voltage monitoring | Simultaneous VCC and V2MON supervision with separate RESET and V2FAIL outputs - supports redundant power architectures. |
| Nonvolatile watchdog timeout selection | WD1/WD0 bits retain setting across power cycles - eliminates need for boot-time initialization of watchdog interval. |
| Block Lock™ EEPROM protection | Eight configurable lock segments (64–8192 bytes) controlled by BP2–BP0 bits - prevents accidental overwrite of critical calibration or security data. |
| Direct Write™ EEPROM cell | 100,000 write/erase cycles and 100-year data retention - suitable for field-updatable firmware parameters in long-lifecycle equipment. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar CPU supervisor with integrated EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6361KA29+T | Single-supply only (2.93 V reset threshold); no V2MON input or V2FAIL output; 16 Kbit EEPROM; 10-pin µMAX package. | Lacks dual-supply monitoring and secondary fail signaling - unsuitable where independent V2 fault isolation is required. | Select when only primary VCC supervision is needed and board space constraints favor smaller package. |
| STM8AF6266TCX | MCU-based solution with embedded EEPROM and software-configurable reset thresholds; requires firmware development; 32-pin LQFP. | Offers greater flexibility but adds design complexity, qualification effort, and failsafe risk if firmware hangs. | Select when system already uses STM8A platform and requires custom reset sequencing beyond fixed-timer watchdog. |

FAQ
What is the factory-programmed VTRIP threshold for the X40626S14I-4.5A?
The X40626S14I-4.5A is shipped with a factory-programmed VTRIP threshold of 4.5 V, as indicated by the "-4.5A" suffix in the part number. This value is stored in nonvolatile memory and remains stable over temperature and time unless explicitly reprogrammed using the VP pulse method on the WP pin.
Does the X40626S14I-4.5A support dual-supply monitoring out of the box?
Yes, the X40626S14I-4.5A supports dual-supply monitoring without configuration: VCC is monitored for reset generation, while V2MON is independently monitored to drive the V2FAIL output. Both comparators operate simultaneously and require no initialization or register writes to function.
How many bytes can be protected using Block Lock™ on the X40626S14I-4.5A?
The X40626S14I-4.5A supports eight distinct Block Lock™ protection configurations via BP2–BP0 bits: none, 64 bytes (first page), 128 bytes (first two pages), 256 bytes (first four pages), 512 bytes (first eight pages), 2 Kbytes (upper quarter), 4 Kbytes (upper half), or full 8 Kbyte array - enabling granular write protection for firmware, calibration, or security data.
What is the maximum I2C clock frequency supported by the X40626S14I-4.5A?
The X40626S14I-4.5A supports a maximum I2C clock frequency of 400 kHz, compliant with Fast-mode I2C specification. This allows high-throughput EEPROM access while maintaining compatibility with standard microcontroller I2C peripherals and bus arbitration schemes.
Is the watchdog timer on the X40626S14I-4.5A enabled by default after power-up?
No, the watchdog timer on the X40626S14I-4.5A is disabled by default after power-up, as indicated by WD1=1 and WD0=1 in the factory-default control register. To enable it, the microcontroller must write new values to WD1/WD0 bits - ensuring intentional activation rather than unintended reset behavior during system startup.
