General Description
The ASM1816 is a voltage supervisory device with low-power,
3.3V/3V µP Reset, active LOW, open-drain output. Maximum
supply current over temperature is a low 15µA (at 3.6V).
The ASM1816 generates an active LOW reset signal whenever
the monitored supply is out of tolerance. A precision reference
and comparator circuit monitor power supply (V
CC
) level.
Tolerance level options are 5%, 10% and 20%. When an out-of-
tolerance condition is detected, an internal power-fail signal is
generated which forces an active LOW reset signal. After V
CC
returns to an in-tolerance condition, the reset signal remains
active for 150ms to allow the power supply and system
microprocessor to stabilize.

ASM1816
The ASM1816 is designed with a open-drain output stage and
operates over the extended industrial temperature range.
Devices are available in TO-92 and compact surface mount
SOT-23 packages.
Other low power products in this family include the ASM1810/
11/12/15/17, ASM1233D and ASM1233M.

active (LOW) for approximatley 150ms after the power supply
voltage has reached the selected tolerance. This allows the
power supply and microprocessor to stablize before RESET
is released.
