ATA6264 [Preliminary]
13. USP Comparator for General Purpose
The USP comparator is used for general purposes, for example, low battery detection. An exter-
nal resistive voltage divider provides the input signal for pin USP. A missing USP connection or
V
USP
< 2.44V sets the status register bit b7 to low. During normal operation (V
USP
> 2.44V) the
status register bit b7 stays high.

CORE
> reset threshold, V
INT
= 3.7V to 5.47V
Operating conditions of all other supply pins:
