RT9818
Application Information
Multiple Supplies
Mainly, the pull-up connected to the RT9818 will connect to the supply voltage that is being monitored at the IC’ s
VDD
pin. However, some systems may use the open-drain output to level-shift from the monitored supply to reset circuitry
powered by some other supply.
Benefits of Highly Accurate Reset Threshold
Most μP supervisor ICs have reset threshold voltages between 1% and 1.5% below the value of nominal supply voltages.
This ensures a reset will not occur within 1% of the nominal supply, but will occur when the supply is 1.5% below
nominal.
