Low threshold voltage CPU supervisor ICs

13 July 2005 DSP, Micros & Memory

The new ASM6300 CPU supervisory product family from Alliance Semiconductor is available in a wide range of reset voltage and reset timing combinations that spawn 10 distinct products with 217 voltages and reset timing combinations per product. Offered in the tiny footprint SC70 packaging, the products are low-power and cost effective CPU supervisory solutions addressing a wide range of applications in wire-line and wireless telecom, computer, consumer, industrial and medical markets.

Alliance claims that these CMOS CPU supervisors operate on power levels that are 20-40% less than other typical supervisory products. Supervisor products provide system designers with an easy and simple solution to monitoring and detecting problems related to power supply instability and provide them with an assured and safe system operation.

The ASM6300 series CPU supervisors have threshold voltages ranging from 1,6 V to 4,6 V in 31 steps, and reset active periods ranging from 2 ms to 2400 ms in seven steps. They come in package options (3L SOT23, 3L SC70 and 4L SC70) and in both commercial and industrial temperature ranges.
