DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Reset Timing
The reset signal is asserted low for the CAT853, CAT863, CAT859, and CAT869 when the power supply voltage falls below
the threshold trip voltage and remains asserted for at least 140 ms after the power supply voltage has risen above the threshold.

Transient Response
The CAT853, CAT863, CAT859, and CAT869 protect mPs
against brownout failure. Short duration transients of 4 ms or
less and 100 mV amplitude typically do not cause a false
RESET.
Figure 7 shows the maximum pulse duration of
negative−going V
CC
transients that do not cause a reset
condition. As the amplitude of the transient goes further
below the threshold (increasing V
TH
− V
CC
), the maximum
pulse duration decreases. In this test, the V
CC
starts from an
initial voltage of 0.5 V above the threshold and drops below
it by the amplitude of the overdrive voltage (V
TH
− V
CC
).

under 1.0 V
To ensure that the CAT859 and CAT869 RESET pin is in
a known state when V
CC
is under 1.0 V, a > 10 kW
pull−down resistor between RESET
pin and GND is
recommended.
