Datasheet
General Description
The MAX698/MAX699 monitor the +5V supply in micro-
processor (μP) and digital systems. They supply a
RESET pulse of at least 140ms duration on power-up,
power-down, and during low-voltage brownout conditions.
Circuit reliability is increased at reduced cost by eliminat-
ing all external components and adjustments.
The MAX699 includes all features of the MAX698, but
also provides a watchdog input to monitor microproces-
sor activity. The RESET output goes low if the watchdog
input (WDI) is not toggled within 1 second. The watchdog
feature can be disabled by leaving WDI open.
Both parts are supplied in 8-lead PDIP and 16-lead 0.3in
wide small outline (SO) packages and are specified from
0°C to +70°C for C grade devices and -40°C to +85°C
for E devices. The SO versions, with more pins than the
8-lead PDIP, have additional outputs not available in DIP
packages. These are RESET (without inversion) and
watchdog output (WDO).
