MIC809/810
Microprocessor Reset Circuits
General Description
The MIC809 and MIC810 are inexpensive microprocessor
supervisory circuits that monitor power supplies in micro-
processor based systems.
The function of these devices is to assert a reset if the power
supply drops below a designated reset threshold level. Several
different reset threshold levels are available to accommodate
3V, 3.3V or 5V powered systems.
The MIC809 has an active-low /RESET output, while the
MIC810 offers an active-high RESET output. The reset output
is guaranteed to remain asserted for a minimum of 140ms
after V
CC
has risen above the designated reset threshold
level. Having a push-pull output stage, the MIC809/810 does
not require a pull-up resistor at the output. The MIC809/810
comes in a 3-pin SOT-23 and SC-70 package.
The MIC809 is also available with a shorter reset timeout
(30ms min.). See the MIC809-5.
All support documentation can be found on Micrel’s web site
at www.micrel.com.

Interfacing to Bidirectional Reset Pins
The MIC809/810 can interface with µPs with bidirectional
reset pins by connecting a 4.7kΩ resistor in series with the
MIC809/810 output and the µP reset pin.
/RESET Valid at Low Voltage
A resistor can be added from the /RESET pin to ground to
ensure the /RESET output remains low with V
CC
down to
0V. A 100kΩ resistor connected from the /RESET to ground
is recommended. The resistor should be small enough to
pull-down any stray leakage currents and large enough not
to load the reset output. See Figure below.

Applications Information
Microprocessor Reset
The /RESET (or RESET) pin is asserted whenever V
CC
falls
below the reset threshold voltage. The /RESET pin remains
asserted for a period of 140ms after V
CC
has risen above
the reset threshold voltage. The reset function ensures the
microprocessor is properly reset and powers up in a known
condition after a power failure. /RESET will remain valid with
V
CC
as low as 1.4V (1V for SC-70 package).
V
CC
Transients
The MIC809/810 are relatively immune to negative-going V
CC
glitches below the reset threshold. Typically, a negative-going
transient 125mV below the reset threshold with a duration of
20µs or less (SC70 package) will not cause a reset.
