for a fixed 140ms (min) timeout period
or to an external capacitor for a user-adjustable timeout period after V

RESET2
Secondary Reset Output, Open-Drain, Active-Low.
RESET2
changes from high to low
when either V

or RESET IN2 drop below their thresholds.
RESET2
remains low for a
user-adjustable timeout period (see CSRT) or a fixed 140ms (min) after V
CC
and
RESET IN2 meet their minimum thresholds.

RESET1
Primary Reset Output, Open-Drain (MAX6391) or Push-Pull (MAX6392), Active-Low.
RESET1
changes from HIGH to LOW when the V

input drops below the selected
reset threshold.
RESET1
remains LOW for the reset timeout period after V
CC
exceeds
the minimum threshold.

RESET1
and

remain asserted as long as
MR
is LOW and for the
RESET1
and
RESET2
timeout periods after
MR
goes HIGH. Leave unconnected or connect to V
CC
if unused.
Detailed Description
Each device includes a pair of voltage monitors with
sequenced reset outputs. The first block monitors V
CC
only (
RESET1
output is independent of the RESET IN2
monitor). It asserts a reset signal (LOW) whenever V
CC
is below the preset voltage threshold.
RESET1
remains
asserted for at least 140ms after V
CC
rises above the
reset threshold.
RESET1
timing is internally set in each
device. V
CC
voltage thresholds are available from
1.57V to 4.63V. In all cases V
CC
acts as the master
supply (all resets are asserted when V
CC
goes below
its selected threshold). The V
CC
input also acts as the
device power supply.
The second block monitors both RESET IN2 and V
CC
. It
asserts a reset signal (LOW) whenever RESET IN2 is
below the 625mV threshold or V
CC
is below its reset
threshold.
RESET2
remains asserted for a fixed 140ms
(min) or a user-adjustable time period after RESET IN2
rises above the 625mV reset threshold and
RESET1
is
deasserted. Resets are guaranteed valid for V
CC
down
to 1V.
The timing diagram in Figure 2 shows the reset timing
characteristics of the MAX6391/MAX6392. As shown in
Figure 2,
RESET1
deasserts 140ms (min) (t
RP1
) after
V
CC
exceeds the reset threshold.
RESET2
deasserts
t
RP2
(140ms minimum or a user-adjustable timeout peri-
od) after RESET IN2 exceeds 625mV and
RESET1
is
deasserted. When RESET IN2 drops below 625mV
while V
CC
is above the reset threshold,
RESET2
asserts
within 10μs typ.
RESET1
is unaffected when this hap-
pens. When V
CC
falls below V
TH1
,
RESET2
always
asserts before
RESET1
(t
RD2
< t
RD1
).
