Datasheet

General Description
The MAX696/MAX697 supervisory circuits reduce the
complexity and number of components required for
power-supply monitoring and battery-control functions
in microprocessor (μP) systems. These include μP reset
and backup-battery switchover, watchdog timer, CMOS
RAM write protection, and power-failure warning. The
MAX696/MAX697 significantly improve system reliability
and accuracy compared to that obtained with separate
ICs or discrete components.
The MAX696 and MAX697 are supplied in 16-pin pack-
ages and perform six functions:
1) A reset output during power-up, power-down, and
brownout conditions. The threshold for this “lowline”
reset is adjustable by an external voltagedivider.
2) A reset pulse if the optional watchdog timer has not
been toggled within a specified time.
3) Individual outputs for low-line and watchdog fault con-
ditions.
4) The reset time may be left at its default value of 50ms,
or may be varied with an external capacitor or clock
pulses.
5) A separate 1.3V threshold detector for power-fail warn-
ing, low-battery detection, or to monitor a power supply
other than V
CC
.
The MAX696 also has battery-backup switching for CMOS
RAM, CMOS microprocessor, or other lowpower logic.
The MAX697 lacks battery-backup switching, but has
write-protection pins (CE IN and CE OUT) for CMOS
RAM or EPROM. In addition, it consumes less than 250
microamperes.
