General Description
The MAX6467/MAX6468 microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuits
monitor single power-supply voltages from +1.8V to +5.0V and assert
a reset if the supply voltage drops below its preset threshold. An
edge-triggered, one-shot manual reset function ensures that the µP
enters the reset mode for a fixed timeout period only, even in the
event of a continuously asserted manual reset. The MAX6467/MAX6468
significantly improve system reliability compared to traditional
manual reset supervisory circuits.
