Full-Featured µP Supervisory Circuit with
±1.5% Reset Accuracy
The MAX807 µP supervisory circuit provides power-
supply monitoring, backup-battery switchover, and pro-
gram execution watchdog functions in µP systems
(Figure 1). Use of BiCMOS technology results in an
improved 1.5% reset-threshold precision, while keeping
supply currents typically below 70µA. The MAX807 is
intended for battery-powered applications that require
high reset-threshold precision, allowing a wide power-
supply operating range while preventing the system
from operating below its specified voltage range.

The MAX807’s RESET output ensures that the µP pow-
ers up in a known state, and prevents code execution
errors during power-down and brownout conditions. It
accomplishes this by resetting the µP, terminating pro-
gram execution when V
old or MR is pulled low. Each time RESET is asserted it
stays low for the 200ms reset timeout period, which is
set by an internal timer to ensure the µP has adequate
time to return to an initial state. Any time V
below the reset threshold before the reset-timeout peri-
od is completed, the internal timer restarts. The watch-
dog timer can also initiate a reset if WDO is connected
to MR (see the Watchdog Input section).
