Nanopower µP Supervisory Circuits with
Optional Manual Reset, Watchdog Timer
General Description
The MAX6854–MAX6869 ultra-low-current (170nA, typ)
microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuits combine volt-
age monitoring, watchdog timer, and manual reset input
functions in a 5-pin SOT23 package. These devices
assert a reset signal whenever the monitored voltage
drops below the factory-trimmed reset threshold voltage,
manual reset is asserted, or the watchdog timer expires.
The reset output remains asserted for a minimum timeout
period after V
CC
rises above the reset threshold and
manual reset is deasserted. Factory-trimmed reset
threshold voltages are offered from +1.575V to +4.625V
in approximately 100mV increments (see
Threshold
Suffix Guide).
Each device is offered with six minimum
reset timeout options, ranging from 10ms to 1200ms.
The MAX6854–MAX6869 are offered in a variety of con-
figurations (see
Selector Guide).
The MAX6854–
MAX6856 and MAX6861–MAX6869 provide a manual
reset input,
MR.
The MAX6864–MAX6869 offer a watch-
dog timer that monitors activity at the WDI input for code
execution errors. The MAX6864–MAX6869 offer watch-
dog timeout options of 3.3s or 209s (typ). The
MAX6861–MAX6863 feature a pin-selectable reset delay
period of 10ms or 150ms (min). Push-pull active-low,
push-pull active-high, and open-drain active-low reset
outputs are available.
