In a single-chip microcontroller application system, the I/O port is commonly used to implement a self-shutdown function, which means completely cutting off the power. Typically, an electronic switch controlled by the MCU is used for this purpose. However, when the MCU is powered down, the system loses power, and the I/O pin that was previously high will eventually drop to a low level. But there's a problem here.
When the electronic switch is turned off, due to the presence of the power supply filter capacitor, the voltage of the microcontroller system doesn't immediately drop to zero—it gradually decreases. At some point, the voltage may fall below the normal operating level, causing the MCU to enter a reset state, program failure, or an undefined state. During this transition, the I/O pins might momentarily return to a high level, which could inadvertently turn the electronic switch back on, leading to an unstable power state.
To solve this issue, we can take advantage of the fact that the minimum operating voltage of a general-purpose microcontroller is lower than its normal operating voltage. By designing the shutdown circuit accordingly, we ensure that the turn-on voltage of the electronic switch is higher than the minimum operating voltage of the MCU. This way, when the MCU is running normally, the control voltage is high enough to keep the switch on. But during power-off, as the voltage drops, the I/O pin’s high level is no longer sufficient to maintain the switch in the conducting state, thus ensuring a complete power cut.
The circuit works as follows: When the system is turned off, pressing S1 turns on Q2. Once the MCU starts up, it sets the POWER output to a high level, which turns on Q1 and keeps Q2 conducting. When the system is shut down:
1. **Software Shutdown**: The MCU’s POWER pin goes low, turning off Q1, which in turn turns off Q2, cutting the power. This method is often used for delayed shutdown, such as in digital multimeters.
2. **Manual Shutdown via S1**: Pressing S1 sends a low signal through D3 to the MCU’s ON-OFF pin. The MCU detects this and initiates a software shutdown as described above.
D3 serves as an isolation diode to prevent the MCU’s ON-OFF pin from being pulled low when the system is off, which could accidentally turn Q2 back on. The POWER pin is the output from the MCU, where a low level corresponds to 0V, and a high level matches the supply voltage. The ON-OFF pin is used by the MCU to monitor the state of S1. If S1 isn’t used, this pin can be repurposed for other functions.
