Adding Hysteresis to the Power Fail Comparator
For increased noise immunity, hysteresis can be added to the
power fail comparator. Because the comparator circuit is
noninverting, hysteresis can be added by connecting a resistor
between the
PFO
output and the PFI input as shown in Figure 16.

Figure 16. Adding Hysteresis to the Power Fail Comparator
When
PFO
is low, Resistor R3 sinks current from the summing
junction at the PFI pin. When
PFO
is high, Resistor R3 sources
current into the PFI summing junction. This results in differing
trip levels for the comparator. Further noise immunity can be
achieved by connecting a capacitor between PFI and GND. The
equations calculate the hysteresis are as follows:

CC
The ADM705/ADM706/ADM707/ADM708 are guaranteed to
provide a valid reset level with V
CC
as low as 1 V (see the Typical
Performance Characteristics section). As V
CC
drops below 1 V,
the internal transistor does not have sufficient drive to hold the
voltage
RESET
at 0 V. A pull-down resistor can connect externally,
as shown in Figure 17, to hold the line low if required.
