Application Circuit Examples

1. Microcomputer reset circuits

In microcomputers, when the power supply voltage is lower than the minimum operation voltage, an unspecified

operation may be performed or the contents of the memory register may be lost. When power supply voltage

returns to the normal level, the microcomputer needs to be initialized. Otherwise, the microcomputer may

malfunction after that. Reset circuits to protect microcomputer in the event of current being momentarily switched

off or lowered.

Using the S-19104/19106 Series which has the low minimum operation voltage, the high-accuracy detection

voltage and the hysteresis width, reset circuits can be easily constructed as seen in Figure 36 and Figure 37.
