SLVSIB0 December 2025 UCD91320
PRODUCTION DATA
The UCD91320 device triggers brownout event when the VDD pin voltage drops below the brownout threshold voltage (VBOR). During a brownout event, the device continues to write fault logs into the NVM that occurred before the brownout event. The device fully shuts down when the VDD pin voltage is below the shutdown threshold voltage (VSHDN). Any fault event that has not been written into the NVM before the device shutdown is lost.
If several faults happen immediately before the brownout event, the device requires a capacitance of 500 µs to write the first fault event into the NVM. The write function requires an additional 4 ms to write the Black Box fault log into the NVM. The user must provide enough local capacitance to maintain the VDD rail above VSHDN for 500 µs (or 4.5 ms with the Black Box fault log) to preserve the first fault log. More capacitance allows more fault events to be written into the NVM during brownout.
