3-Pin µP Voltage Monitor
Preliminary
Circuit Description
Microprocessor Reset
The RESET pin is asserted whenever VCC falls below the
reset threshold voltage. The reset pin remains asserted for
a period of 240ms after VCC has risen above the reset
threshold voltage. The reset function ensures the micro-
processor is properly reset and powers up into a known
condition after a power failure. RESET will remain valid
with VCC as low as 1.4V.

VCC Transients
The ILC803, ILC809 and ILC810 are relatively immune to
negative-going VCC glitches below the reset threshold.
Typically, a negative-going transient 125mV below the reset
threshold with a duration of 50µs (25µs for ILC8__R/S/T) or
less will not cause an unwanted reset.

Interfacing to Bi-directional Reset Pins
The ILC803/ILC809/ILC810 can interface with µPs with bi-
directional reset pins by connecting a 4.7kΩ resistor in
series with the ILC803/ILC809/ILC810 output and the mP
reset pin. ILC803 connects directly with a single pull-up
resistor (figure 2).

RESET Valid to 0V
A resistor can be added from the RESET pin to ground to
ensure the RESET output remains low with VCC down to
0V. A 100kΩ resistor connected from RESET to ground is
recommended. The size of the resistor should be large
enough to not load the RESET output and small enough to
pull-down any stray leakage currents.
