MIC8115 Micrel MIC8115 Microprocessor Reset Circuit General Description Features The MIC8115 is an inexpensive microprocessor supervisory circuit that monitors power supplies in microprocessor based systems. The function of this device is to assert a reset if the power supply drops below a designated reset threshold level or /MR is forced low. The MIC8115 has an active low /RESET output. The reset output is guaranteed to remain asserted for a minimum of 1100ms after VCC has risen above the designated reset threshold level. The MIC8115 comes in a 4-pin SOT-143 package. * * * * * * * Precision voltage monitor for 3.3V power supplies Specifically tailored to the AMD Elan SC500 Series /RESET remains valid with VCC as low as 1V 5A typical supply current 1100ms minimum reset pulse width Manual reset input Available in 4-Pin SOT-143 Package Applications * * * * * Portable equipment Intelligent instruments Critical microprocessor power monitoring Printers/computers Embedded controllers Ordering Information Part Number Marking Operating Temp.

After both VCC exceeds the supply reset threshold voltage and /MR is deasserted. 3 /MR Manual Reset Input. A logic low on /MR forces a reset. The reset will remain asserted as long as /MR is held low and for one reset timeout period (1100ms min.) after /MR goes high. This input can be shorted to ground via a switch or driven from CMOS or TTL logic. Pulled high internally through a 20k resistor. Float if unused. 4 VCC Power supply Input.

A 100k resistor connected from /RESET-to-ground is recommended. The resistor should be large enough not to load the /RESET output and small enough to pull-down any stray leakage currents. Microprocessor Reset The /RESET pin is asserted whenever VCC falls below the reset threshold voltage. The reset pin remains asserted for a period of 1100ms after VCC has risen above the reset threshold voltage. The reset function ensures the microprocessor is properly reset and powers up into a known condition after a power failure. /RESET will remain valid with VCC as low as 1V. VCC Transients The MIC8115 is relatively immune to the negative-going VCC glitches below the reset threshold. Typically, a negative-going transient 125mV below the reset threshold with a duration of 20s or less will not cause a reset.
