General Description

The AS1923 microprocessor supervisory circuit was designed to monitor up to four system supply voltages without the need for external components, and asserts a single reset if any of the monitored supply voltages drops below its reset threshold.

The AS1923 features an active-low reset output that is asserted when any of the 4 monitored voltages are below their respective reset threshold. The reset output is open-drain with a weak internal pullup (10μA) to IN2. Reset remains low for a specified reset timeout period (120ms min) after all voltages have stabilized. The output is valid as long as the IN1 or IN2 input voltage remains >1V.
