Datasheet

General Description
The MAX690 family of supervisory circuits reduces the
complexity and number of components required for
power supply monitoring and battery control functions in
microprocessor systems. These include µP reset and
backup-battery switchover, watchdog timer, CMOS RAM
write protection, and power-failure warning. The MAX690
family significantly improves system reliability and accu-
racy compared to that obtainable with separate ICs or
discrete components.
The MAX690, MAX692, and MAX694 are supplied in
8-pin packages and provide four functions:
A reset output during power-up, power-down, and
brownout conditions.
Battery backup switching for CMOS RAM, CMOS
microprocessor or other low power logic.
A Reset pulse if the optional watchdog timer has not
been toggled within a specified time.
A 1.3V threshold detector for power fail warning, low
battery detection, or to monitor a power supply other
than +5V.
The MAX691, MAX693, and MAX695 are supplied in 16-pin
packages and perform all MAX690, MAX692, MAX694
functions, plus:
Write protection of CMOS RAM or EEPROM.
Adjustable reset and watchdog timeout periods.
Separate outputs for indicating a watchdog timeout,
backup-battery switchover, and low V
CC
