ASM809, ASM810
3 Pin Microcontroller Power Supply Supervisor
General Description
The ASM809/ASM810 are cost effective 3.0V, 3.3V and 5.0V
power supply supervisor circuits optimized for low-power
microprocessor (µP), microcontroller (µC) and digital systems.
They provide a reset output during power-up, power-down and
brown-out conditions. They provide excellent reliability by
eliminating
external
components
and
adjustments.
The
ASM809/810 are improved drop-in replacements for the Maxim
MAX809/810 and feature 60% lower supply current.
A reset signal is issued if the power supply voltage drops below
a preset reset threshold and is asserted for at least 140ms after
the supply has risen above the reset threshold. The ASM809
has an active-low RESET output that is guaranteed to be in the
correct logic state for V
CC
down to 1.1V. The ASM810 has an
active-high RESET output. The reset comparator is designed to
ignore fast transients on V
CC
.
Low supply current makes the ASM809/ASM810 ideal for use
in
portable
and
battery
operated
equipment.
The
ASM809/ASM810 are available in a compact, industry standard
3-pin SOT23 package.
Six voltage thresholds are available to support 3V to 5V

Reset Timing
The reset signal is asserted- LOW for the ASM809 and HIGH
for the ASM810- when the V

supply voltage falls below the
threshold trip voltage and remains asserted for 140ms

Bidirectional Reset Pin Interfacing
The ASM809/810 can interface with µP / µC bi-directional
reset pins by connecting a 4.7kΩ resistor in series with the
ASM809/810 reset output and the µP/µC bi-directional reset
pin.
Application Information
Negative V
CC
Transients
The ASM809/810 protect µPs from brownouts and low V
CC
.
Short duration transients of 100mV amplitude and 20µs or
less duration typically do not cause a false RESET.
Valid Reset with V
CC
under 1.1V
When V
CC
is under 1.1V, to ensure logic inputs connected to
the ASM809 RESET pin are in a known state, a 100kΩ pull-
down resistor is needed at RESET . The value of the resistor
is not critical. A 100kΩ pull-up resistor to V
CC
at RESET is
needed with the ASM810.
