Low Power, 5V/3.3V, µP Reset, Active LOW, Open-Drain Output

November 2006

ASM1233D-L/D/M

General Description

The ASM1233D-L/1233D/1233M are voltage supervisors with

low-power, 5/3.3V µP Reset, with an active LOW, open-drain

output. Maximum supply current over temperature is 15µA for

3.3V devices and 20µA for 5V devices.

The ASM1233D-L/1233D/1233M generates an active LOW

reset signal whenever the monitored supply is out of tolerance.

A precision reference and comparator circuit monitors power

an out-of-tolerance condition is detected, an internal power-fail

signal is generated which forces an active LOW reset signal.

remains active for 350ms to allow the power supply and system

microprocessor to stabilize.

The ASM1233D-L/1233D/1233M is designed with an open-

drain output stage and operates over the extended industrial

temperature range. These devices are available in compact

SOT-223, SO-8 and TO-92 packages.

Other low power products in this family include ASM1810/11/

12/15/16/17.
