Application Implementations
Multiple Sequencer Implementations
In order to control the sequencing of more than 4 voltages in
applications where the integrity of these critical voltages must
be assured prior to sequencing, several of the ISL8723 or
ISL8724 devices can configured together to accomplish this.
Figure 24 shows a typical multi sequencer implementation;
note the common SYSRST
signal that asserts once all
monitored voltages are valid allowing the sequence to
initiate. The sequencing is straight forward across multiple
sequencers as all DLY_ON capacitors will simultaneously
start charging once all monitored voltages area valid and
~10ms after the common ENABLE input signal is delivered.
This allows the choice of capacitors to be related to each
other no different than using a single sequencer. When the
common enabling signal is deasserted, this configuration will
then execute the turn-off sequence across all sequencers as
programmed by the DLY_OFF capacitor values.
With all the SYSRST
pins bused together, once the on
sequence is complete, simultaneous shutdown upon any
UVLO input failure is assured as the SYSRST
output will pull
low, simultaneously turning off all GATE outputs.
