Voltage supervisors for use in microprocessor and microcomputer systems

TL7700 voltage monitor from Texas Instruments is a bipolar integrated circuit designed for use with reset controllers such as microprocessors and microcomputer systems. The SENSE voltage can be set to any value higher than 0.5V using two external resistors. The circuit function is extremely stable, and the power supply voltage is in the range of 1.8V to 40V. The minimum supply current allows for use with AC line operation, portable battery operation and automotive applications. The device is designed for an operating temperature of –40C to 85C. Typical applications include DSP, MCU, FPGA, ASIC, notebook, desktop computer, set-top box, industrial control system.
