General Description
The AP1701/2/3/4 are used for microprocessor (P)
supervisory circuits to monitor the power supplies in
P and digital systems. They provide excellent
circuit reliability and low cost by eliminating external
components and adjustments when used with +5V,
+3.3V, +3.0V powered circuits.
These circuits perform a single function: they assert
a reset signal whenever the VCC supply voltage
declines below a preset threshold, keeping it
asserted for at least 140ms after VCC has risen
above the reset threshold. Reset thresholds
suitable for operation with a variety of supply
voltages are available. The AP1701/2/3/4 have
push pull outputs. The AP1701/3 have an active low
RESET output, while the AP1702/4 has an active
high RESET output. The reset comparator is
designed to ignore fast transients on VCC, and the
outputs are guaranteed to be in the correct logic
state for VCC down to 1V. Low supply current
makes the AP1701/2/3/4 ideal for use in portable
equipment. The AP1701/2/3/4 is available in a 3-pin
SOT23 package.

Function Description
A microprocessor's (P's) reset input starts the P
in a known state. The AP1701/2/3/4 assert reset to
prevent code-execution errors during power-up,
power-down, or brownout conditions. They assert a
reset signal whenever the VCC supply voltage
declines below a preset threshold, keeping it
asserted for at least 140ms after VCC has risen
above the reset threshold. The AP1701/2/3/4 have
a push-pull output stage.
Applications Information
Negative-Going VCC Transients
In addition to issuing a reset to the P during
power-up, power-down, and brownout conditions,
the AP1701/2/3/4 are relatively immune to
short-duration negative-going VCC transients
(glitches).
The AP1701/2/3/4 do not generate a reset pulse.
The graph was generated using a negative going
pulse applied to VCC, starting 0.5V above the
actual reset threshold and ending below it by the
magnitude indicated (reset comparator overdrive).
The graph indicates the maximum pulse width a
negative going VCC transient can have without
causing a reset pulse. As the magnitude of the
transient increases (goes farther below the reset
threshold), the maximum allowable pulse width
decreases. Typically, a VCC transient that goes
100mV below the reset threshold and lasts 20s or
less will not cause a reset pulse. A 0.1F bypass
capacitor mounted as close as possible to the VCC
pin provides additional transient immunity.
Ensuring a Valid Reset Output
Down to VCC = 0
RESET
is guaranteed to be a logic low for VCC >
1V. Once VCC exceeds the reset threshold, an
internal timer keeps RESET low for the reset
timeout period; after this interval, RESET goes
high. If a brownout condition occurs (VCC dips
below the reset threshold), RESET goes low. Any
time VCC goes below the reset threshold, the
internal timer resets to zero, and RESET goes low.
The internal timer starts after VCC returns above
the reset threshold, and RESET remains low for
the reset timeout period.
When VCC falls below 1V, the AP1701/3 RESET
output no longer sinks current--it becomes an open
circuit. Therefore, high-impedance CMOS logic
inputs connected to RESET
can drift to
undetermined voltages.
This presents no problem in most applications since
most P and other circuitry is inoperative with VCC
below 1V. However, in applications where RESET
must be valid down to 0V, adding a pull down
resistor to RESET causes any stray leakage
currents to flow to ground, holding RESET low.
R1's value is not critical; 100k is large enough not
to load RESET and small enough to pull RESET
to ground. For the AP1702/4 if RESET is required to
remain valid for VCC < 1V.
Benefits of Highly Accurate Reset Threshold
Most P supervisor ICs have reset threshold
voltages between 5% and 10% below the value of
nominal sup-ply voltages. This ensures a reset will
not occur within 5% of the nominal supply, but will
occur when the supply is 10% below nominal.
When using ICs rated at only the nominal supply
5%, this leaves a zone of uncertainty where the
supply is between 5% and 10% low, and where the
reset may or may not be asserted.
