2% Voltage Threshold Accuracy
Independently Adjustable High- and Low-
Voltage Thresholds
General Description
The G680/G681 are microprocessor (µP) supervisory
circuits used to monitor the power supplies in µP and
digital systems. High- and Low- voltage thresholds can
be adjusted independently, allowing for wide hystere-
sis. Voltage detection thresholds are accurate to 2%.
These circuits perform a single function: they assert a
reset signal whenever the V
CC
supply voltage declines
below the low-voltage threshold, keeping it asserted
for at least 140ms after V
CC
has risen above the
high-voltage threshold.
The G681L has an open-drain output stage, while the
G680 have push-pull outputs. The G681L’s open-drain
RESET output requires a pull-up resistor that can be
connected to a voltage higher than V
CC
. The G680L
have an active-low RESET output, while the G680H
has an active-high RESET output. The reset com-
parator is designed to ignore fast transients on thresh-
old input.
The IC’s power supply is separate from the detector
inputs, allowing the G680/G681 to be powered from a
down-stream supply. Low supply current (4µA, typical)
makes the G680/G681 ideal for use in portable
equipment. The G680/G681 are available in 5 pin SOT
23-5 packages.

FUNCTION
High-Voltage Theshold (Input): Analog input to a comparator. When the level on this pin initially
rises above V
TH
, the delay generator cycles and the
RESET
remains low or RESET remains high
for a minimum of 140ms.
Ground
Low-Voltage Threshold (Input): Analog input to a comparator. This is the voltage monitor input
assigned to detect a low voltage condition. When the level on this pin falls below V
TH
,
RESET
or
RESET is asserted and the condition is latched until V
HTH
> V
TH
.
Reset (Output): Push-pull output. This output is asserted and latched when V
LTH
<V
TH
, indicating
a low voltage condition. This state remains latched until V
HTH
> V
TH
. The polarity of this signal
(active-high or low) is determined by the part number suffix. See ordering information.
Power Supply (Input): Independent supply input for internal circuitry.

Detailed Description
A microprocessor’s (µP’s) reset input starts the µP in a
known state. The G681L/G680L/G680H assert reset to
prevent code-execution errors during power-up,
power-down, or brownout conditions. They assert a
reset signal whenever the threshold voltage declines
below V
TH
, keeping it asserted for at least 140ms after
threshold voltage input has risen above the reset
threshold. The G681L uses an open-drain output, and
the G680L/G680H have a push-pull output stage.
Connect a pull-up resistor on the G681L’s RESET out-
put to any supply between 0 and 5.5V.
Battery voltage is monitored by a comparator via a
voltage divider network. The divided voltage is com-
pared to an internal reference voltage. When the volt-
age at the LTH input pin drops below the internal ref-
erence voltage, the output is asserted. At this point,
the voltage at HTH is assumed to be below the refer-
ence voltage.

Applications Information
Negative-Going V
CC
Transients
In addition to issuing a reset to the µP during
power-up, power-down, and brownout conditions, the
G681L/G680H/G680L are relatively immune to short-
duration negative-going V
LTH
transients (glitches).
Figure1. shows typical transient duration vs. reset
comparator overdrive, for which the G681L/G680H/
G680L do not generate a reset pulse. The graph was
generated using a negative-going pulse applied to
V
LTH
, starting 0.1V above the actual reset threshold
and ending below it by the magnitude indicated (reset
comparator overdrive). The graph indicates the maxi-
mum pulse width a negative-going V
LTH
transient can
have without causing a reset pulse. As the magnitude
of the transient increases (goes farther below the reset
threshold), the maximum allowable pulse width de-
creases. Typically, a V
LTH
transient that goes 100mV
below the reset threshold and lasts 7µs or less will not
cause a reset pulse. A 0.1µF bypass capacitor
mounted as close as possible to the V
LTH
pin provides
additional transient immunity.

In order to provide the additional criteria needed to
solve for the resistor values, the resistors can be se-
