Detailed Description
The MAX6412–MAX6420 low-power microprocessor
(µP) supervisory circuits provide maximum adjustability
for supply-voltage monitoring and reset functionality. In
addition, the MAX6412–MAX6420 reset timeout period
is adjustable using an external capacitor.
The MAX6412/MAX6413/MAX6414 have factory-
trimmed reset threshold voltages in approximately
100mV increments from 1.575V to 5.0V with a manual
reset input. The MAX6415/MAX6416/MAX6417 contain
a reset threshold that can be adjusted to any voltage
above 1.26V using external resistors. The MAX6418/
MAX6419/MAX6420 offer both a factory-trimmed reset
threshold and an adjustable reset threshold input for
dual-voltage monitoring.
A reset signal is asserted when V
CC
and/or RESET IN
falls below the preset values or when
MR
is asserted.
The reset remains asserted for an externally pro-
grammed interval after V
CC
and/or RESET IN has risen
above the reset threshold or
MR
is deasserted.
in a known state. The MAX6412–MAX6420 µP supervi-
sory circuits provide the reset logic to prevent code-
execution errors during power-up, power-down, and
brownout conditions (see
Typical Operating Circuit).
For the MAX6413, MAX6416, and MAX6419, RESET
changes from low to high whenever V
CC
or RESET IN
drops below the reset threshold voltages. Once RESET
IN and V
CC
exceed their respective reset threshold volt-
age(s), RESET remains high for the reset timeout period,
then goes low.
On power-up, once V
CC
reaches 1V, RESET is guaran-
teed to be a logic high. For applications requiring valid
reset logic when V
CC
is less than 1V, see the section
Ensuring a Valid RESET/RESET Output Down to V
CC
= 0V.
The active-low
RESET
output of the remaining supervi-
sors is the inverse of the MAX6413, MAX6416, and
MAX6419 active-high RESET output and is guaranteed
valid for V
CC
≥
1V.
Reset Threshold
The MAX6415–MAX6420 monitor the voltage on RESET
IN with an external resistor voltage-divider (Figure 1).
Reset Output
The reset output is typically connected to the reset
input of a µP. A µP’s reset input starts or restarts the µP
