Electric Field Imaging Device
The MC33794 is intended for applications where noncontact sensing of
objects is desired. When connected to external electrodes, an electric field is
created.,The MC33794 is intended for use in detecting objects in this electric
field. The IC generates a low-frequency sine wave. The frequency is adjustable
by using an external resistor and is optimized for 120 kHz. The sine wave has
very low harmonic content to reduce harmonic interference.
The MC33794 also contains support circuits for a microcontroller unit (MCU)
to allow the construction of a two-chip E-field system.

SOICW-EP TERMINAL CONNECTIONS

Table 1. SOICW-EP TERMINAL FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
Terminal
Terminal
Name
Formal Name Definition
1 RST Reset
This output is intended to generate the reset function of a typical MCU. It has a
delay for Power-ON Reset, level detectors to force a reset when V
CC
REG is
out-of-range high or low, and a watchdog timer that will force a reset if WD_IN
is not asserted at regular intervals. Timing is derived from the oscillator and will
change with changes in the resistor attached to R_OSC.
2 WD_IN Watchdog In
This terminal must be asserted and deserted at regular interval in order to
prevent
RST from being asserted. By having the MCU program perform this
operation more often the allowed time, a check that the MCU is running and
executing its program is assured. If this doesn’t occur, the MCU will be reset. If
the watchdog function is not desired, this terminal may be connected to CLK to
prevent a reset from being issued.

NC No connect
These terminals may be used at some future date and should be left open.
4 LAMP_GND Lamp Ground
This is the ground for the current from the lamp. The current into LAMP_OUT
flows out through this terminal.
6 LAMP_OUT Lamp Driver
This is an active low output capable of sinking current of a typical indicator lamp.
One end of the lamp should be connected to a positive supply (for example,
battery voltage) and the other side to this terminal. The current is limited to
prevent damage to the IC in the case of a short or surge during lamp turn-on or
burn-out.
