These STM660x smart push-button controllers provide secure start, power-down, reset, and power-disable functions for one- or two-button interfaces, protecting systems from non-responsive applications (e.g., dead loops). They are suited for terminals, audio/video players, smartphones, PDAs, PCs, and portable devices, enabling safe control of application power and processor reset.
- STM6600 device
- STM6601 device
- One push-button
- Two push-buttons
- Power supply (system battery or external supply)
- Microprocessor or application processor
- Reset circuitry/interface
- Power control/disabling circuitry
These devices allow easy and safe control of applications run with one or two push-buttons by securely starting or powering down a system and also resetting the processor or disabling power in case of a non-responding application (e.g. code in a dead loop). This makes the STM660x devices suitable for a broad spectrum of applications such as terminals, audio and video players, smartphones, PDAs, PCs, or any portable device.
