General Description
The MAX6826–MAX6831 are ultra-low-voltage micro­processor (µP) supervisory circuits designed to monitor two power supplies and have manual reset and watch­dog input functions. These devices assert a system reset if any of the monitored supplies fall below the prepro­grammed thresholds, and maintain reset for a minimum timeout period after the supplies rise above the threshold. Microprocessor supervisors significantly improve system reliability and accuracy compared to separate ICs or dis­crete components. These devices monitor primary volt­ages from +1.8V to +5.0V and secondary voltages from +0.9V to +2.5V. These devices are guaranteed to be in the correct state for VCCdown to +1.0V.
A variety of preprogrammed reset threshold voltages are available (see Threshold Suffix Guide). The devices include manual reset and watchdog inputs. The MAX6829/MAX6830/MAX6831 provide a factory­trimmed threshold to monitor a 2nd voltage down to +0.9V. The MAX6826/MAX6829 have a push-pull RESET, the MAX6827/MAX6830 have a push-pull RESET and the MAX6828/MAX6831 have an open-drain RESET. The MAX6826/MAX6827/MAX6828 have an aux­iliary monitor that allows user adjustable input to monitor voltages down to +0.6V. See Selector Guide for func­tions available.

Detailed Description
RESET
/RESET Output
A microprocessors (µPs) reset input starts the µP in a known state. The MAX6826–MAX6831 µP supervisory circuits assert a reset to prevent code-execution errors during power-up, power-down, and brownout condi­tions. Whenever a monitored voltage falls below the reset threshold, the reset output asserts low for RESET and high for RESET. Once all monitored voltages exceed their reset thresholds, an internal timer keeps the reset output asserted for the specified reset timeout period (tRP); after this interval, reset output returns to its original state (Figure 3).
Manual Reset Input
Many µP-based products require manual-reset capabil­ity, allowing the operator, a test technician, or external logic circuitry to initiate a reset. A logic low on MR
asserts a reset. Reset remains asserted while MR is low, and for the timeout period (140ms min) after it returns high. MR has an internal 50kpullup resistor, so it can be left open if not used. This input can be dri­ven with CMOS logic levels or with open-drain/collector

outputs. Connect a normally open momentary switch from MR to GND to create a manual-reset function; external debounce circuitry is not required. If MR is dri­ven from long cables or the device is used in a noisy environment, connect a 0.1µF capacitor from MR to GND to provide additional noise immunity.
Watchdog Input
The watchdog circuit monitors the µPs activity. If the µP does not toggle (low to high or high to low) the watchdog input (WDI) within the watchdog timeout peri­od (1.6s nominal), reset asserts for the reset timeout period. The internal 1.6s timer can be cleared by either a reset pulse or by toggling WDI. The WDI can detect pulses as short as 50ns. While reset is asserted, the timer remains cleared and does not count. As soon as reset is released, the timer starts counting (Figure 4).
Disable the watchdog function by leaving WDI uncon­nected or by three-stating the driver connected to WDI. The watchdog input is internally driven low during the first 7/8 of the watchdog timeout period and high for the last 1/8 of the watchdog timeout period. When WDI is left unconnected, this internal driver clears the 1.6s timer every 1.4s. When WDI is three-stated or unconnected,
the maximum allowable leakage current is 10µA and the maximum allowable load capacitance is 200pF.
Adjustable Reset Thresholds
The MAX6826/MAX6827/MAX6828 provide a user adjustable input to monitor a second voltage. The threshold voltage at RSTIN is typically 0.63V. To moni­tor a voltage higher than 0.63V, connect a resistor­divider to the circuit as shown in Figure 5. The threshold at V
MONITOR
is:
Note that RSTIN is powered by VCC, and its voltage must therefore remain lower than VCC.
Applications Information
Watchdog Input Current
The WDI inputs are internally driven through a buffer and series resistor from the watchdog timer (Figure 1). When WDI is left unconnected, the watchdog timer is serviced within the watchdog timeout period by a low­high-low pulse from the counter chain. For minimum watchdog input current (minimum overall power con­sumption), leave WDI low for the majority of the watch­dog timeout period, pulsing it low-high-low once within the first 7/8 of the watchdog timeout period to reset the watchdog timer. If WDI is externally driven high for the majority of the timeout period, up to 160µA can flow into WDI.
Interfacing to µPs
with Bidirectional Reset Pins
Since the RESET output on the MAX6828/MAX6831 is open drain, these devices interface easily with µPs that have bidirectional reset pins, such as the Motorola 68HC11. Connecting the µP supervisors RESET output

Negative-Going VCCTransients
These supervisors are relatively immune to short-dura­tion, negative-going VCCtransients (glitches), which usually do not require the entire system to shut down. Resets are issued to the µP during power-up, power­down, and brownout conditions. The Typical Operating Characteristics show a graph of the Maximum V
CC
Transient Duration vs. Reset Threshold Overdrive, for which reset pulses are not generated. The graph was produced using negative-going V
CC
pulses, starting at the standard monitored voltage and ending below the reset threshold by the magnitude indicated (reset threshold overdrive). The graph shows the maximum pulse width that a negative-going V
CC
transient can typically have without triggering a reset pulse. As the amplitude of the transient increases (i.e., goes farther below the reset threshold), the maximum allowable pulse width decreases. Typically, a VCCtransient that goes 100mV below the reset threshold and lasts for 20µs or less will not trigger a reset pulse.
Ensuring a Valid RESET
Output Down to V
CC
= 0
The MAX6826–MAX6831 are guaranteed to operate properly down to VCC= 1V. In applications that require valid reset levels down to VCC= 0, a pulldown resistor to active-low outputs (push/pull only, Figure 7) and a pullup resistor to active-high outputs (push/pull only) will ensure that the reset line is valid while the reset output can no longer sink or source current. This scheme does not work with the open-drain outputs of the MAX6828/MAX6831. The resistor value used is not criti­cal, but it must be small enough not to load the reset output when VCCis above the reset threshold. For falling slew rates greater than 1V/s, a 100kis adequate.
Watchdog Software Considerations
One way to help the watchdog timer monitor software execution more closely is to set and reset the watchdog input at different points in the program, rather than pulsing the watchdog input high-low-high or low-high­low. This technique avoids a stuck loop, in which the watchdog timer would continue to be reset inside the loop, keeping the watchdog from timing out.
Figure 8 shows an example of a flow diagram where the I/O driving the watchdog input is set high at the begin­ning of the program, set low at the beginning of every subroutine or loop, then set high again when the pro­gram returns to the beginning. If the program should hang in any subroutine, the problem would quickly be corrected, since the I/O is continually set low and the watchdog timer is allowed to time out, causing a reset or interrupt to be issued. As described in the Watchdog Input Current section, this scheme results in higher time average WDI input current than does leaving WDI low for the majority of the timeout period and periodically pulsing it low-high-low.
