The reset output is typically connected to the reset input
of a µP. A µP’s reset input starts or restarts the µP in a
known state. The MAX6301–MAX6304 µP supervisory
circuits provide the reset logic to prevent code-execution
errors during power-up, power-down, and brownout
conditions (see the Typical Operating Circuit ).
For the MAX6301/MAX6303, RESET changes from high
to low whenever the monitored voltage (V
below the reset threshold voltage (V
remains low as long as V
exceeds V
period, then goes high. When a reset is asserted due to
a watchdog timeout condition, RESET stays low for the
reset timeout period. Any time reset asserts, the watch-
dog timer clears. At the end of the reset timeout period,
RESET goes high and the watchdog timer is restarted
from zero. If the watchdog timeout period is exceeded
again, then RESET goes low again. This cycle contin-
ues unless WDI receives a transition.

and R2 can have very high values to minimize current
consumption. Set R2 to some conveniently high value
(1MΩ, for example) and calculate R1 based on the desired
reset threshold voltage, using the following formula:
The watchdog circuit monitors the µP’s activity. If the µP
does not toggle the watchdog input (WDI) within t
(user selected), reset asserts. The internal watchdog
timer is cleared by reset, by a transition at WDI (which
can detect pulses as short as 30ns), or by a transition
at WDS. The watchdog timer remains cleared while
reset is asserted; as soon as reset is released, the timer
starts counting (Figure 2).
The MAX6301–MAX6304 feature two modes of watchdog
timer operation: normal mode and extended mode. In
normal mode (WDS = GND), the watchdog timeout
period is determined by the value of the capacitor con-
nected between SWT and ground (see the Selecting
the Reset and Watchdog Timeout Capacitor section). In
extended mode (WDS = V
period is multiplied by 500. For example, in the extended
mode, a 1µF capacitor gives a watchdog timeout period
of 22 minutes (see the Extended-Mode Watchdog
Timeout Period vs. C
Operating Characteristics ).
In extended mode, the watchdog function can be
disabled by leaving WDI unconnected or by three-stating
the driver connected to WDI. In this mode, the watchdog
input is internally driven low during the watchdog timeout
period, then momentarily pulses high, resetting the
