MIC2777
Dual Micro-Power Low Voltage Supervisor
General Description
Features
The MIC2777 is a dual power supply supervisor that provides
under-voltage monitoring, manual reset capability, and poweron reset generation in a compact 5-pin SOT package. Features include two under-voltage detectors, one fixed and one
adjustable, and both active-high and active-low reset outputs.
One under-voltage detector compares VDD against a fixed
threshold. Ten factory-programmed thresholds are available.
The other under-voltage detector is user-adjustable.
The reset outputs are asserted for no less than 140ms at
power-on and any time VDD or the input voltage drops below
the corresponding reference voltage. They remain asserted
for the timeout period after the input voltage and VDD subsequently rise back above the threshold boundaries. A reset
can be generated at any time by pulling down on the adjustable input. Hysteresis is included to prevent chattering due
to noise. Typical supply current is a low 3.5µA.

Functional Description
RST, /RST Reset Output
Typically, the MIC2777 is used to monitor the power supplies
of intelligent circuits such as microcontrollers and microprocessors. By connecting the appropriate reset output of a
MIC2777 to the reset input of a µC or µP, the processor will
be properly reset at power-on and during power-down and
brown-out conditions.
The reset outputs are asserted any time VDD or VIN drops
below the corresponding threshold voltage. The reset outputs
remain asserted for tRST(min) after VIN and/or VDD subsequent
return above the threshold boundaries and/or /MR is released.
A reset pulse is also generated at power-on.
Manual Reset
The ability to initiate a reset via external logic or a manual
switch is provided in addition to the MIC2777’s automatic
supervisory functions. Typically, a momentary push-button
switch is connected such that IN is shorted to ground when
the switch contacts close. Assuming VDD and VIN are within
tolerance when the switch is released, the reset outputs will
be de-asserted no less than 140ms later. IN can also be driven
by an open-drain or open-collector logic signal.
IN, Under-Voltage Detector Input
The voltage present at the IN pin is compared to the internal
300mV reference voltage. A reset is triggered if and when VIN
falls below VREF. Typically, a resistor divider is used to scale
the input voltage to be monitored such that VIN will fall below
VREF as the voltage being monitored falls below the desired
trip-point. Hysteresis is employed to prevent chattering due
to noise. The comparator on the IN input is relatively immune
to very brief negative-going transients.
VDD Input
The VDD pin is both the power supply terminal and a monitored
input voltage. The voltage at this pin is continually compared
against the internal reference. The trip-point at which a reset
occurs is factory programmed. A reset is triggered if and
when VDD falls below the trip-point. Hysteresis is employed
to prevent chattering due to noise. The comparator on the
VDD input is relatively immune to very brief negative-going
transients.

Application Information
To summarize, the various potential error sources are:
• Variation in VREF: specified at ±1.5%
• Resistor tolerance: chosen by designer (typically ≤
±1%)
• Input bias current, IIN: calculated once resistor values
are known, typically very small
Taking the various potential error sources into account, the
threshold voltage will be set slightly below the minimum VCORE
specification of 0.950V so that when the actual threshold
voltage is at its maximum, it will not intrude into the normal
operating range of VCORE. The target threshold voltage will
be set as follows:
Given that the total tolerance on VTH for the IN pin is [VREF
tolerance] + [resistor tolerance]
= ±1.5% + ±1% = ±2.5%,
and VTH(max) = VCORE(min),
then VCORE(min) = VTH + 2.5% VTH = 1.025 VTH,
therefore, solving for VTH results in
VCORE(min) 0.950
= 0.9268V
VTH =
=
1.025
1.025
Programming the Voltage Threshold
Referring to the “Typical Application Circuit”, the voltage
threshold on the IN pin is calculated as follows:
VTH = VREF ×
(R1+ R2)
R2
where VREF = 0.300V
In order to provide the additional criteria needed to solve
for the resistor values, the resistors can be selected such
that the two resistors have a given total value, that is, R1
+ R2 = RTOTAL. Imposing this condition on the resistor values provides two equations that can be solved for the two
unknown resistor values. A value such as 1MΩ for RTOTAL
is a reasonable choice since it keeps quiescent current to a
generally acceptable level while not causing any measurable
errors due to input bias currents. The larger the resistors, the
larger the potential errors due to input bias current (IIN). The
maximum recommended value of RTOTAL is 3MΩ.
Applying this criteria and rearranging the VTH expression to
solve for the resistor values gives:
R2 =
(RTOTAL )( VREF )
Solving for R1 and R2 using this value for VTH and the equations above yields:
R1 = 676.3kΩ ≈ 673kΩ
R2 = 323.7kΩ ≈ 324kΩ
The resulting circuit is shown in Figure 1.
Input Bias Current Effects
Now that the resistor values are known, it is possible to calculate the maximum potential error due to input bias current,
IIN. As shown in the “Electrical Characteristics” table, the
maximum value of IIN is 10nA. (Note that the typical value
is a much smaller 5pA) The magnitude of the offset caused
by IIN is given by:
VERROR = IIN(max) × (R1||R2) =
VERROR = ±1 × 10-8A × 2.189 ×105Ω =
VERROR = ±2.189 × 10-3V =
VERROR = ±2.189mV
VTH
R1 = RTOTAL – R2
Application Example
Figure 1 illustrates a hypothetical MIC2777-23 application
in which the MIC2777-23 is used to monitor the core and
I/O supplies of a high-performance CPU or DSP. The core
supply, VCORE, in this example is 1.0V ±5%. The main power
rail and I/O voltage, VI/O, is 2.5V ±5%. As shown in Figure 1,
the MIC2777 is powered by VI/O. The minimum value of VI/O
is 2.5V –5% = 2.375V; the maximum is 2.5V +5% = 2.625V.
This is well within the MIC2777’s power supply range of
1.5V to 5.5V.
Resistors R1 and R2 must be selected to correspond to the
VCORE supply of 1.0V. The goal is to insure that the core
supply voltage is adequate to insure proper operation, i.e.,
VCORE ≥ (1.0V –5%) = 0.950V. Because there is always a
small degree of uncertainty due to the accuracy of the resistors, variations in the devices’ voltage reference, etc., the
threshold will be set slightly below this value. The potential
variation in the MIC2777’s input voltage reference (VREF) is
specified as ±1.5%. The resistors chosen will have their own
tolerance specification. This example will assume the use of
1% accurate resistors. The potential worst-case error contribution due to input bias current can be calculated once the
resistor values are chosen. If the guidelines above regarding
the maximum total value of R1+R2 are followed, this error
contribution will be very small thanks to the MIC2777’s very
low input bias current.
MIC2777
The typical error is about three orders of magnitude lower
than this– close to one microvolt! Generally, the error
due to input bias can be discounted. If it is to be taken
into account, simply adjust the target threshold voltage
downward by this amount and recalculate R1 and R2. The
resulting value will be very close to optimum. If accuracy
is more important than the quiescent current in the
resistors, simply reduce the value of RTOTAL to minimize
offset errors.

Ensuring Proper Operation at Low Supply
At levels of VDD below 1.2V, the MIC2777’s /RST output
cannot turn on sufficiently to produce a valid logic-low on
/RST. In this situation, other circuits driven by /RST could
be allowed to float, causing undesired operation. (In most
cases, however, it is expected that the circuits driven by the
MIC2777 will be similarly inoperative at VDD ≤ 1.2V.)
If a given application requires that /RST be valid below VDD
= 1.2V, this can be accomplished by adding a pull-down resistor to the /RST output. A value of 100kΩ is recommended
as this is usually an acceptable compromise of quiescent
current and pull-down current. The resistor’s value is not
critical, however. See Figure 3.
The statements above also apply to the MIC2777’s RST output. That is, to ensure valid RST signal levels at VDD<1.2V,
a pull-up resistor (as opposed to a pull-down) should be
added to the RST output. A value of 100kΩ is typical for this
application as well. See Figure 4.

Transient response
The MIC2777 is inherently immune to very short negativegoing “glitches.” Very brief transients may exceed the voltage
thresholds without tripping the output.
As shown in Figure 2a and 2b, in general the narrower the
transient, the deeper the threshold overdrive that will be
ignored by the MIC2777. The graph represents the typical
allowable transient duration for a given amount of threshold
overdrive that will not generate a reset.
