PCS809/PCS810
3-Pin µP Voltage Supervisor
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES

•
•
Ultra Low Supply Current 1µA(typ.)
PCS809/PCS810 are low-power microprocessor (µP)
supervisory circuits used to monitor power supplies in µP
and digital systems. They provide applications with
benefits of circuit reliability and low cost by eliminating
external components.
Guaranteed Reset Valid to VCC=0.9V
Available in three Output Types: Open Drain
Active Low (PCS809N), Push-Pull Active Low
(PCS809), Push-Pull Active High (PCS810)
140ms Min. Power-On Reset Pulse Width
Internally Fixed Threshold 2.3V, 2.6V, 2.9V,
3.1V, 4.0V, 4.4V, and 4.6V
•
•
These devices perform as valid singles in applications with
VCC ranging from 6.0V down to 0.9V. The reset signal
lasts for a minimum period of 140ms whenever VCC
supply voltage falls below preset threshold. Both PCS809
and PCS810 were designed with a reset comparator to
help identify invalid signals, which last less than 140ms.
The only difference between them is that they have an
active-low RESET output and active-high RESET output,
respectively.
