AS1925, AS1926
Ultra-Low Voltage Microprocessor Supervisory
Circuit with Manual Reset
1 General Description
2 Key Features
ꢀ
Factory-Trimmed Reset Thresholds for Monitoring
Supplies from 0.9 to 1.5V
The AS1925/AS1926 microprocessor supervisory cir-
cuits were designed to assert a single reset if the moni-
tored supply voltage drops below its reset threshold or if
the manual reset is activated. The reset remains
asserted for a fixed timeout delay after VCC has risen
above the reset threshold and the manual reset is deas-
serted.

ꢀ
Low Power Consumption: 3.5µA
Reset Threshold Accuracy Over Temperature:
±2.5%
Their small size, excellent circuit reliability, and low sup-
ply current (3.5µA) make the AS1925/AS1926 a very
low cost solution by eliminating external components
and adjustments when used with low-voltage (+0.9 to
+1.5V) systems.
ꢀ
ꢀ
Four Timeout Periods: 1.5ms, 30ms, 210ms, and
1.68s
Three Reset Output Types:
- Active-Low Push/Pull
- Active-High Push/Pull
- Active Low Open-Drain
The devices are available as the standard products
listed in Table 1.

Immune to Fast VCC Transients
5-pin SOT23 Package
The active-low open-drain reset output requires a pullup
resistor that can be connected to a voltage from 0 to
VCC. The reset comparator was specifically designed to
ignore fast VCC transients.
The devices are available in a 5-pin SOT23 package.
3 Applications
The device is ideal for portable and battery-powered
systems, embedded controllers, intelligent instruments,
automotive systems, telecommunications equipment,
networking equipment, computer workstations and serv-
ers, critical CPU monitoring applications, and any low-
voltage application.
