FEATURES
The SP791 is a microprocessor ( P) supervi-
sory circuit that monitors the power supplied to
digital circuits such as microprocessors,
microcontrollers, or memory. The SP791 is an
ideal solution for portable, battery-powered
equipment that require power supply monitor-
ing. The SP791 watchdog functions will con-
tinuously oversee the operational status of a sys-
tem. Implementing the SP791 will reduce the
number of components and overall complexity
in a design that requires power supply monitor-
ing circuitry. The operational features and ben-
efits of the SP791 are described in more detail
below.
THEORY OF OPERATION
The SP791 is a complete P supervisor IC and
provides the following main functions:

MANUAL RESET INPUT
Many microprocessor or microcontroller prod-
ucts include manual-reset capability, allowing
the operator or test technician to initiate a reset.
The Manual Reset Input (MR) can be connected
directly to a switch, without an external pull-up
resistor. It connects to a 1.25V comparator, and
has an internal pull-up to V
ure 1. The propagation delay from asserting MR
to RESET being asserted is 7us typical. Pulsing
