ABSTRACT:
A fail-safe supervisory circuit for a microprocessor-controlled fuel burner has a diode pump circuit (C4, C5, D7, D8) triggered by a resettable monostable (R7, T2, R8, C3) responsive to an encoded signal from the microprocessor, to act as a watch-dog timer. A triggered bistable (D1, T1, R2, IC8) provides a RESET signal on power-on or manually. A direct connection from this bistable to the monostable enables the timer circuit until the microprocessor program commences.
