DESCRIPTION
The DS1816 EconoReset uses a precision temperature reference and comparator circuit to monitor the
status of the power supply (VCC). When an out-of-tolerance condition is detected, an internal power-fail
signal is generated which forces reset to the active state. When VCC returns to an in-tolerance condition,
the reset signal is kept in the active state for approximately 150ms to allow the power supply and
processor to stabilize.

OPERATION — POWER MONITOR
The DS1816 provides the function of detecting out-of-tolerance power supply conditions and warning a
processor-based system of impending power failure. When VCC is detected as out-of-tolerance, the RST
signal is asserted. On power-up, RST is kept active for approximately 150ms after the power supply has
reached the selected tolerance. This allows the power supply and microprocessor to stabilize before RST
is released.

NOTES:
1. All voltages are referenced to ground.
2. Measured with VCC ³ 2.7V.
3. A 1kW external pull-up resistor may be required in some applications for proper operation of the
microprocessor reset control circuit.
4. Measured with RST output open.
5. Measured with 2.7V £ VCC £ 3.3V.
6. tR = 5ms
7. VOH and IOH are a function of the value of RP and the associated output load conditions.
8. The tF value is for reference in defining values for tRPD and should not be considered a requirement for
proper operation or use of the device.
