The MAX809JEUR is a compact, highly reliable microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuit designed by Maxim Integrated to monitor power supplies in digital systems. It provides a significant degree of precision and integration, ensuring systems remain operational within their voltage thresholds. This device is particularly suitable for use in portable, battery-powered equipment due to its low power consumption and small footprint.
Key Features
- Reset Output: The MAX809JEUR provides a reset signal to the µP during power-up, power-down, and brown-out conditions, ensuring that the µP starts in a known state.
- Voltage Monitoring: The device monitors the system voltage and keeps the reset output active as long as the system voltage remains below a preset threshold.
- Low Power Consumption: With its low supply current draw (typically 20µA), it is an excellent choice for power-sensitive applications.
- Manual Reset Feature: It includes a manual reset input that allows the user to initiate a reset, providing additional system control.
- High Threshold Accuracy: The device features a ±2% reset threshold accuracy over the entire temperature range, ensuring reliable operation.
- Immunity to Short Vcc Transients: The MAX809JEUR is designed to ignore short-duration transients on the Vcc line, minimizing false resets.
Applications
This supervisory circuit is ideal for a range of applications, including:
- Computers and Controllers
- Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment
- Intelligent Instruments
- Embedded Systems
- Automotive Systems
