Microcontroller Clock Generator with
Watchdog
General Description
The MAX7389/MAX7390 replace ceramic resonators,
crystals, and supervisory functions for microcontrollers
in 3.3V and 5V applications.
The MAX7389/MAX7390 provide a clock source, reset,
and watchdog functions. The watchdog timer is pin pro-
grammable and provides watchdog timeout values in
the 16ms to 2048ms range. The MAX7389 provides a
separate watchdog output that is used as a status indi-
cator or to control safety-critical system elements.
The MAX7390 features a clock-speed select that
reduces the output frequency by half. This functionality
allows the microcontroller to operate at reduced power
and may be used to extend the time available to per-
form housekeeping tasks, such as writing data to flash
during a power failure.
The MAX7389/MAX7390 clock outputs are factory pro-
grammed to a frequency in the 1MHz to 16MHz range.
Four standard frequencies are available. Other frequen-
cies are available upon request. The maximum operating
supply current is 5.5mA with a clock frequency of 12MHz.
Unlike typical crystal and ceramic resonator oscillator
circuits, the MAX7389/MAX7390 are resistant to EMI
and vibration, and operate reliably at high tempera-
tures. The high-output drive current and absence of
high-impedance nodes make the oscillator invulnerable
to dirty or humid operating conditions.
The MAX7389/MAX7390 are available in an 8-pin µMAX
®
package. The MAX7389/MAX7390 standard operating
temperature range is from -40°C to +125°C.

Note:
“s” is a placeholder for the reset output type. Insert the
symbol found in Table 3 in the place of “s.” “r” is a placeholder
for the power-on reset (POR) voltage. Insert the symbol found in
Table 2 in the place of “r.” “ff” is a placeholder for the nominal
output frequency. Insert the symbol found in Table 4 in the
place of “ff.” For example, MAX7389CMTP describes a device
with 4.38V reset level, open-collector
RST
output, and a clock
output frequency of 8MHz.
