General Description

The AS1925/AS1926 microprocessor supervisory circuits were designed to assert a single reset if the monitored 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.

Their small size, excellent circuit reliability, and low supply 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.
