DESCRIPTION
AIC809/AIC810 are low-power microprocessor (µP)
supervisory circuits used to monitor power supplies in
µP and digital systems. They provide applications with
benefits of circuit reliability and low cost by eliminating
external components.
These devices perform as valid singles in applications
with Vcc ranging from 6.0V down to 0.9V. The reset
signal lasts for a minimum period of 140ms whenever
VCC supply voltage falls below preset threshold. Both
AIC809 and AIC810 were designed with a reset
comparator to help identify invalid signals, which last
less than 140ms. The only difference between them is
that they have an active-low RESET output and
active-high RESET output, respectively.
Low supply current (1µA) makes AIC809/AIC810 ideal
for portable equipment. The devices are available in
SOT-23 package.

GND Pin : Ground.
RESET Pin (AIC809) : Active low output pin. RESET Output remains low while Vcc is below the reset

threshold.
Vcc Pin : Supply voltage.
DETAIL DESCRIPTIONS OF TECHNICAL TERMS
RESET OUTPUT
μP will be activated at a valid reset state. These
μP supervisory circuits assert reset to prevent
code execution errors during power-up,
power-down, or brownout conditions.
RESET is guaranteed to be a logic low for
VTH>VCC>0.9V. Once VCC exceeds the reset
threshold, an internal timer keeps RESET low
for the reset timeout period; after this interval,
RESET goes high.
If a brownout condition occurs (VCC drops below
the reset threshold), RESET goes low. Any time
VCC goes below the reset threshold, the internal
timer resets to zero, and RESET goes low. The
internal timer is activated after VCC returns
above the reset threshold, and RESET remains
low for the reset timeout period.
BENEFITS OF HIGHLY ACCURATE RESET
THRESHOLD
AIC809/810 with specified voltage as 5V±10% or
3V±10% are ideal for systems using a 5V±5% or
3V±5% power supply. The reset is guaranteed to
assert after the power supply falls out of regulation,
but before power drops below the minimum
specified operating voltage range of the system
ICs. The pre-trimmed thresholds are reducing the
range over which an undesirable reset may occur.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
NEGATIVE-GOING VCC TRANSIENTS
In addition to issuing a reset to the μP during
power-up, power-down, and brownout conditions,
AIC809 series are relatively resistant to
short-duration negative-going VCC transient.
ENSURING A VALID RESET OUTPUT DOWN
TO VCC=0
When VCC falls below 0.9V, AIC809 RESET
output no longer sinks current; it becomes an
open circuit. In this case, high-impedance CMOS
logic inputs connecting to RESET can drift to
undetermined voltages. Therefore, AIC809/810
with CMOS is perfect for most applications of VCC
below 0.9V. However in applications where
RESET must be valid down to 0V, adding a
pull-down resistor to RESET causes any leakage
currents to flow to ground, holding RESET low.
INTERFACING TO
μ
P WITH BIDIRECTIONAL
RESET PINS
The RESET output on the AIC809N is open drain,
this device interfaces easily with μPs that have
bidirectional reset pins. Connecting the μP
supervisor’s RESET output directly to the
microcontroller’s RESET pin with a single pull-up
resistor allows either device to assert reset.
