ZXCM809
ZXCM810
VERY LOW POWER MICROPROCESSOR RESET DEVICES
DESCRIPTION
APPLICATIONS
The ZXCM809/810 are three terminal supervisory
circuits used to monitor the power supplies in
microprocessor and digital systems. They provide a
high performance economical solution when used
with 5V, 3V or lower powered circuits. Reset thresholds
suitable for operation with a variety of supply voltages
are available.

Power supplies
These devices provide a reset signal whenever the
supply voltage falls below a preset threshold, keeping
it asserted for a minimum delay period of 140ms after
the supply has risen above the reset level. The
ZXCM809 has an active-low RESET output (which is
guaranteed to be in the correct state for supplies down
to 1V), while the ZXCM810 has an active-high RESET
output.
Portable/Battery-powered equipment
Automotive
The reset comparator has in built hysteresis to prevent
erratic operation and is designed to ignore supply
transients. Low supply current (typically 2A) makes
the ZXCM809/810 devices ideal for use in portable
equipment. They are available in a 3-pin SOT23 surface
mount package with an industry standard pinout.
