DESCRIPTION
The DS1233D EconoReset uses a precision temperature-compensated reference and compar ator circuit to
monitor the status of the power supply (VCC). When an out-of-tolerance condition i s detected, an intern al
power-fail signal is generated which fo rces reset to the acti ve state. When V
CC
returns to an in-tolerance
condition, the reset signal is kept in the active state for approximately 350 ms to allow the power supply
and processor to stabilize.
OPERATION - POWER MONITOR
The DS1233D provides the functions of detecting out-of-tolerance power supply conditions and warning
a processor-based system of impending power failure. When VCC is detected as out of tolerance as
defined by the tolerance of the part selected, the
RST signal is asserted. On power-up, RST is kept active
for approximately 350 ms after the power supply has reached the selected tolerance. This allows the
power supply and microprocessor to stabilize before
RST is released.
