Open-Drain µP Reset Circuit

General Description
The MIC6315 is an inexpensive reset generator circuit that
monitors power supplies in microprocessor based systems.
The function of this device is to assert a reset if either the
power supply drops below a designated reset threshold level
or /MR is forced low. Several different reset threshold levels
are available to accommodate 3V, 3.3V or 5V powered
systems.
The MIC6315 has an active low, open-drain /RESET output.
The reset output is guaranteed to remain asserted for a
minimum of either 20ms, 140ms, or 1100ms after VCC has
risen above the designed reset threshold level. The MIC6315
comes in a 4-pin SOT-143 package.
Features
• Precision voltage monitor for 3V, 3.3V or 5V power
supplies
• /RESET remains valid with VCC as low as 1.4V
• <15µA supply current
• 20ms, 40ms, or 1100ms minimum reset pulse widths
available
• Manual reset input
• 4-pin SOT-143 package
Applications
• Portable equipment
• Intelligent instruments
• Critical microprocessor power monitoring
• Printers/computers
• Embedded controllers
