MB3771
Power Supply Monitor
Description
The Cypress MB3771 is designed to monitor the voltage level of one or two power supplies (+5 V and an arbitrary voltage) in a
microprocessor circuit, memory board in large-size computer, for example.
If the circuit’s power supply deviates more than a specified amount, then the MB3771 generates a reset signal to the microprocessor.
Thus, the computer data is protected from accidental erasure.
Using the MB3771 requires few external components. To monitor only a +5 V supply, the MB3771 requires the connection of one
external capacitor. The level of an arbitrary detection voltage is determined by two external resistors. The MB3771 is available in an
8-pin Dual In-Line, Single In-Line Package or space saving Flat Package.

3. Functional Descriptions
Comparators Comp.A and Comp.B apply a hysteresis to the detected voltage, so that when the voltage at either the V
SA
or V
SB
pin
falls below 1.23 V the RESET output signal goes to “low” level.
Comp. B may be used to detect any given voltage(8.Application Circuit 8.3 : Arbitrary Voltage Supply Monitor), and can also be used
as a forced reset pin (with reset hold time) with TTL input (8.Application Circuit 8.6 : 5V Power Supply Monitor with forced RESET input
(V
CC
= 5 V) ).
Note that if Comp.B is not used, the V
SB
pin should be connected to the V
CC
pin (8.Application Circuit 8.1 : 5V Power Supply Monitor).
Instantaneous breaks or drops in the power supply can be detected as abnormal conditions by the MB3771 within a 2 µs interval.
However because momentary breaks or drops of this duration do not cause problems in actual systems in some cases, a delayed
trigger function can be created by connecting capacitors to the V
SA
or V
SB
pin (8.Application Circuit 8.8 : Supply Voltage Monitoring
with Delayed Trigger).
Because the RESET output has built-in pull-up resistance, there is no need to connect to external pull-up resistance when connected
to a high impedance load such as a CMOS logic IC.
Comparator Comp. C is an open-collector output comparator without hysteresis, in which the polarity of input/output characteristics
is reversed. Thus Comp. C is useful for over-voltage detection (8.Application Circuit 8.11 : Low Voltage and Over Voltage Detection
(V
CC
= 5 V) ) and positive logic RESET signal output (8.Application Circuit 8.7 : 5 V Power Supply Monitor with Non-inverted RESET),
as well as for creating a reference voltage (8.Application Circuit 8.10 : Reference Voltage Generation and Voltage Sagging Detection).
Note that if Comp. C is not used, the V
SC
pin should be connected to the GND pin (Application Circuit 1 : 5V Power Supply Monitor).
