The MAX825REUK from Maxim Integrated is a compact, highly efficient, and reliable supervisory circuit designed for monitoring voltage levels in digital systems and providing a reset signal to microcontrollers and processors during power-up, power-down, or brown-out conditions. This microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuit is essential for ensuring the correct operation of systems by resetting the processor whenever the supply voltage drops below a predetermined threshold.
Key Features
- Voltage Monitoring: The device monitors the system voltage and asserts a reset signal when the monitored voltage falls below the factory-set reset threshold level.
- Factory-Set Reset Thresholds: Available in a variety of factory-set reset threshold voltages to accommodate different system requirements.
- Manual Reset Input: Comes with a manual reset input that allows for a system reset to be initiated by external hardware or software events.
- Low Power Consumption: Designed for low power consumption, making it suitable for battery-powered applications.
- Reset Timeout: Features a minimum reset timeout of 140ms, ensuring the system has ample time to stabilize after a reset event.
- Compact Package: Available in a small SOT-23 package, making it ideal for space-constrained applications.
