The DS1233-15 EconoReset from Maxim Integrated is a vital component designed to enhance the reliability of microprocessor systems. This precision device monitors the power supply voltage of microprocessor (µP) systems, providing an automatic reset upon power-up and maintaining reset for a minimum of 250ms after the supply has reached a stable operating level. This ensures that the µP and its peripherals are reset simultaneously during power-up, power-down, and brownout conditions.

Key Features

• Power Supply Monitoring: The DS1233-15 actively monitors the system's power supply, ensuring that the voltage is within acceptable thresholds for stable operation.
• Automatic Reset: It generates a reset pulse when the power supply drops below a preset threshold, effectively preventing system errors and data corruption.
• Reset Delay: The device holds the processor in the reset state for a minimum of 250ms after the power supply has stabilized, allowing adequate time for the system to recover from a power-down or brownout condition.
• Voltage Threshold: The reset threshold voltage for the DS1233-15 is precisely set at 4.625V, suitable for 5V-powered systems.
• Compact Package: Available in a 3-pin TO-92 package, it is easy to integrate into a variety of designs without requiring significant board space.
• No External Components: The DS1233-15 does not require any external components, simplifying the design and reducing the overall bill of materials.

Applications

The DS1233-15 is ideal for use in microprocessor systems where reliable operation is critical. It is commonly used in:

• Embedded systems
• Computers and computer peripherals
• Consumer electronics
