+3V Voltage Monitoring, Low-Cost µP
Supervisory Circuits
General Description
The MAX706P/R/S/T, MAX706AP/AR/AS/AT, and
MAX708R/S/T microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuits
reduce the complexity and number of components
required to monitor +3V power-supply levels in +3V to
+5V µP systems. These devices significantly improve
system reliability and accuracy compared to separate
ICs or discrete components.
The MAX706P/R/S/T and MAX706AP/AR/AS/AT supervi-
sory circuits provide the following four functions:
1) A reset output during power-up, power-down, and
brownout conditions.
2) An independent watchdog output that goes low if the
watchdog input has not been toggled within 1.6s.
3) A 1.25V threshold detector for power-fail warning,
low-battery detection, or for monitoring a power
supply other than the main supply.
4) An active-low, manual-reset input.
The only difference between the MAX706R/AR,
MAX706S/AS, and MAX706T/AT is the reset-threshold
voltage levels, which are 2.63V, 2.93V, and 3.08V,
respectively. All have active-low reset output signals.
The MAX706P/AP are identical to the MAX706R/AR,
except the reset output signal is active-high. The watch-
dog timer function for the MAX706AP/AR/AS/AT dis-
ables when the WDI input is left open or connected to a
high-impedance state of a low-leakage tri-state output.
The MAX708R/S/T provide the same functions as the
MAX706R/S/T and MAX706AR/AS/AT except they do
not have a watchdog timer. Instead, they provide both
RESET
and RESET outputs. As with the MAX706,
devices with R, S, and T suffixes have reset thresholds
of 2.63V, 2.93V, and 3.08V, respectively.
These devices are available in 8-pin SO, DIP, and
µMAX
®
packages and are fully specified over the oper-
ating temperature range.

Note 1:
The input-voltage limits on PFI, WDI, and
MR
can be exceeded if the input current is less than 10mA.
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
