General Description
The MAX690A/MAX692A/MAX802L/MAX802M/MAX805L
reduce the complexity and number of components
required for power-supply monitoring and battery-
control functions in microprocessor (μP) systems. They
significantly improve system reliability and accuracy
compared to separate ICs or discrete components.
These parts provide four functions:
1) A reset output during power-up, power-down, and
brownout conditions.
2) Battery-backup switching for CMOS RAM, CMOS μP,
or other low-power logic.
3) A reset pulse if the optional watchdog timer has not
been toggled within 1.6s.
4) A 1.25V threshold detector for power-fail warning or
low-battery detection, or to monitor a power supply
other than +5V.
The parts differ in their reset-voltage threshold levels and
reset outputs. The MAX690A/MAX802L/MAX805L generate
a reset pulse when the supply voltage drops below 4.65V,
and the MAX692A/MAX802M generate a reset below 4.40V.
The MAX802L/MAX802M guarantee power-fail accuracies
to ±2%. The MAX805L is the same as the MAX690A except
that RESET is provided instead of RESET.
All parts are available in 8-pin DIP and SO packages.
The MAX690A/MAX802L are pin compatible with the
MAX690 and MAX694. The MAX692A/MAX802M are pin
compatible with the MAX692.

1 1 VOUT
Supply Output for CMOS RAM. When VCC is above the reset threshold,
VOUT connects to VCC through a P-channel MOSFET switch. When
VCC is below the reset threshold, the higher of VCC or VBATT will be
connected to VOUT.
2 2 VCC +5V Supply Input
3 3 GND Ground
4 4 PFI Power-Fail Comparator Input. When PFI is less than 1.25V, PFO goes
low. Connect PFI to GND or VCC when not used.
5 5 PFO Power-Fail Output. When PFI is less than 1.25V, PFO goes low;
otherwise PFO stays high.
6 6 WDI
Watchdog Input. If WDI remains high or low for 1.6sec, the internal
watchdog timer runs out and reset is triggered. If WDI is left oating
or connected to a high-impedance three-state buffer, the watchdog
feature is disabled. The internal watchdog timer clears whenever reset is
asserted, WDI is three-stated, or WDI sees a rising or falling edge.
7 7 RESET
Reset Output. Whenever RESET is triggered, it pulses low for 200ms.
It stays low when VCC is below the reset threshold (4.65V in the
MAX690A/MAX802L and 4.4V in the MAX692A/MAX802M) and remains
low for 200ms after VCC rises above the reset threshold. A watchdog
timeout also triggers RESET.
RESET Active-High Reset Output is the inverse of RESET. When RESET is
asserted, the RESET output voltage = VCC or VBATT, whichever is
higher.
8 8 VBATT
Backup-Battery Input. When VCC falls below the reset threshold, VBATT
will be switched to VOUT if VBATT is 20mV greater than VCC. When VCC
rises to 20mV above VBATT, VOUT will be reconnected to VCC. The
40mV hysteresis prevents repeated switching if VCC falls slowly.

Pin Description
Detailed Description
Reset Output
A microprocessor’s (μP’s) reset input starts the μP in
a known state. When the μP is in an unknown state,
it should be held in reset. The MAX690A/MAX692A/
MAX802L/MAX802M assert reset during power-up and
prevent code execution errors during power-down or
brownout conditions.
On power-up, once VCC reaches 1V, RESET is
guaranteed to be a logic low. As VCC rises, RESET
remains low. When VCC exceeds the reset threshold,
an internal timer keeps RESET low for a time equal to
the reset pulse width; after this interval, RESET goes
high (Figure 2). If a brownout condition occurs (if VCC
dips below the reset threshold), RESET is triggered.
Each time RESET is triggered, it stays low for the reset
pulse width interval. Any time VCC goes below the reset
threshold, the internal timer restarts the pulse. If a brownout
condition interrupts a previously initiated reset pulse,
the reset pulse continues for another 200ms. On power-
down, once VCC goes below the threshold, RESET is
guaranteed to be logic low until VCC droops below 1V.
RESET is also triggered by a watchdog timeout. If a high
or low is continuously applied to the WDI pin for 1.6sec,
RESET pulses low. As long as RESET is asserted, the
watchdog timer remains clear. When RESET comes
high, the watchdog resumes timing and must be serviced
within 1.6sec. If WDI is tied high or low, a RESET pulse is
triggered every 1.8s (tWD plus tRS).
The MAX805L active-high RESET output is the inverse
of the MAX690A/MAX692A/MAX802L/MAX802M RESET
output, and is guaranteed to be valid with VCC down to
1.1V. Some μPs, such as Intel’s 80C51, require an active-
high reset pulse.
Watchdog Input
The watchdog circuit monitors the μP’s activity. If the μP
does not toggle the watchdog input (WDI) within 1.6sec,
a reset pulse is triggered. The internal 1.6sec timer is
cleared by either a reset pulse or by open circuiting the
WDI input. As long as reset is asserted or the WDI input
is open circuited, the timer remains cleared and does not
count. As soon as reset is released or WDI is driven high
or low, the timer starts counting. It can detect pulses as
short as 50ns.
Power-Fail Comparator
The PFI input is compared to an internal 1.25V reference.
If PFI is less than 1.25V, PFO goes low. The power-
fail comparator is intended for use as an undervoltage
detector to signal a failing power supply; it need not be

dedicated to this function though, as it is completely
separate from the rest of the circuitry. The external volt-
age divider drives PFI to sense the unregulated DC input
to the +5V regulator (see Typical Operating Circuit). The
voltage-divider ratio can be chosen such that the voltage
at PFI falls below 1.25V just before the +5V regulator
drops out. PFO then triggers an interrupt which signals
the μP to prepare for power-down.
To conserve backup-battery power, the power-fail
detector comparator is turned off and PFO is forced low
when VBATT connects to VOUT.
Backup-Battery Switchover
In the event of a brownout or power failure, it may be
necessary to preserve the contents of RAM. With a back-
up battery installed at VBATT, the devices automatically
switch RAM to backup power when VCC fails.
As long as VCC exceeds the reset threshold, VOUT
connects to VCC through a PMOS power switch.
Once VCC falls below the reset threshold, VCC or VBATT
(whichever is higher) switches to VOUT. Unlike the
MAX690/MAX692, the MAX690A/MAX692A/MAX802L/
MAX802M/MAX805L don’t always connect VBATT to
VOUT when VBATT is greater than VCC. VBATT connects
to VOUT (through an 80Ω switch) only when VCC is below
the reset threshold and VBATT is greater than VCC.
When VCC exceeds the reset threshold, it is connected to
the MAX690A/MAX692A/MAX802L/MAX802M/MAX805L
substrate, regardless of the voltage applied to VBATT
(Figure 3). During this time, the diode (D1) between
VBATT and the substrate will conduct current from VBATT
to VCC if VBATT is 0.6V or greater than VCC.

When VBATT connects to VOUT, backup mode is
activated and the internal circuitry is powered from
the battery (Table 1). When VCC is just below VBATT,
the current drawn from VBATT is typically 30μA. When
VCC drops to more than 1V below VBATT, the internal
switchover comparator shuts off and the supply current
falls to less than 1μA.
Applications Information
Using a SuperCap as a Backup Power Source
SuperCaps are capacitors with extremely high
capacitance values, on the order of 0.1F. Figure 4 shows
a SuperCap used as a backup power source. Do not allow
the SuperCap’s voltage to exceed the maximum reset
threshold by more than 0.6V. In Figure 4’s circuit, the
SuperCap rapidly charges to within a diode drop of VCC.
However, after a long time, the diode leakage current
will pull the SuperCap voltage up to VCC. When using a
SuperCap with the MAX690A/MAX802L/MAX805L, VCC
may not exceed 4.75V + 0.6V = 5.35V.
Use the SuperCap circuit of Figure 5 with a MAX692A
or MAX802M and a ±10% supply. This circuit ensures
that the SuperCap only charges to VCC - 0.5V. At the
maximum VCC of 5.5V, the SuperCap charges up to 5.0V,
only 0.5V above the maximum reset threshold—well
within the requisite 0.6V.
Allowable Backup Power-Source Batteries
Lithium batteries work very well as backup batteries
due to very low self-discharge rates and high energy
density. Single lithium batteries with open-circuit volt-
ages of 3.0V to 3.6V are ideal. Any battery with an open-
circuit voltage less than the minimum reset threshold
plus 0.3V can be connected directly to the VBATT input of
the MAX690A/MAX692A/MAX802L/MAX802M/MAX805L
with no additional circuitry (see the Typical Operating
Circuit). However, batteries with open-circuit voltages
that are greater cannot be used for backup, as current is
sourced into the substrate through the diode (D1 in Figure 3)
when VCC is close to the reset threshold.

Operation Without a Backup Power Source
If a backup power source is not used, ground VBATT and
connect VOUT to VCC. Since there is no need to switch
over to any backup power source, VOUT does not need
to be switched. A direct connection to VCC eliminates any
voltage drops across the switch which may push VOUT
below VCC.
Replacing the Backup Battery
The backup battery can be removed while VCC remains
valid, without danger of triggering RESET/RESET. As
long as VCC stays above the reset threshold, battery-
backup mode cannot be entered. In other switchover ICs
where battery-backup mode is entered whenever VBATT
gets close to VCC, an unconnected VBATT pin accumu-
lates leakage charge and triggers RESET/RESET in error.
Adding Hysteresis to the Power-Fail
Comparator
Hysteresis adds a noise margin to the power-fail
comparator and prevents repeated triggering of PFO
when VIN is close to its trip point. Figure 6 shows how to
add hysteresis to the power-fail comparator. Select the
ratio of R1 and R2 such that PFI sees 1.25V when VIN
falls to its trip point (VTRIP). R3 adds the hysteresis. It will
typically be an order of magnitude greater than R1 or R2
(about 10 times either R1 or R2). The current through R1
and R2 should be at least 1μA to ensure that the 25nA
(max) PFI input current does not shift the trip point. R3
should be larger than 10kΩ so it does not load down the
PFO pin. Capacitor C1 adds additional noise rejection.
Monitoring a Negative Voltage
The power-fail comparator can be used to monitor a
negative supply rail using the circuit of Figure 7. When
the negative rail is good (a negative voltage of large mag-
nitude), PFO is low. When the negative rail is degraded
(a negative voltage of lesser magnitude), PFO goes high.
This circuit’s accuracy is affected by the PFI threshold
tolerance, the VCC line, and the resistors.
Interfacing to μPs with Bidirectional
Reset Pins
μPs with bidirectional reset pins, such as the Motorola
68HC11 series, can contend with the MAX690A/MAX692A/
MAX802L/MAX802M RESET output. If, for example, the
RESET output is driven high and the μP wants to pull it
low, indeterminate logic levels may result. To correct this,
connect a 4.7kΩ resistor between the RESET output and
the μP reset I/O, as in Figure 8. Buffer the RESET output
to other system components.
