Voltage Supervisors and References

Voltage Monitoring and Referencing for Stable Systems 


Voltage supervisors and voltage references monitor system voltages to eliminate problems during operation. On power-down, the supervisor monitors the power supply voltage and resets the system if the voltage falls below a predetermined level. On power-up, the supervisor holds the system in reset until the voltage has stabilized.
