♦ Adjustable Reset Threshold
The MAX6301/MAX6302/MAX6303/MAX6304* low-
power microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuits provide
maximum adjustability for reset and watchdog functions.
The reset threshold can be adjusted to any voltage
above 1.22V, using external resistors. In addition, the
reset and watchdog timeout periods are adjustable
us ing e xte rna l c a p a c itors . A wa tc hd og s e le c t p in
extends the watchdog timeout period to 500x. The reset
function features immunity to power-supply transients.

These four devices differ only in the structure of their reset
outputs (see Selector Guide). The MAX6301–MAX6304
are available in the space-saving 8-pin µMAX package,
as well as 8-pin DIP/SO.
