Abstract

See full text

An improved power-on reset circuit is provided for controlling reset signal transition until after the power supply has achieved operational levels. Specifically, the reset signal is designated to transition from a high to a low state after the power supply exceeds a fixed reference voltage. The reference voltage is set at a voltage value greater than the operational voltage level of devices within a load circuit connected to the output of the power-on reset circuit. The power-on reset circuit includes numerous subcircuits used to define the reference voltage, trigger the reference voltage in relation to the power supply voltage, delay the triggered voltage, and buffer the delayed, triggered voltage to a reset value capable of driving load circuit impedances.
