Resistor values from the calculation are nonindustry standard,
using industry standard resistor values resulted in a new R
DIV
value of 99.8 kΩ. Due to the discrepancy of the calculated resistor
value to the industry standard value, the threshold of each
comparator also changed. Calculate the new threshold values
by using a simple voltage divider formula:
V1 = V
REF
R1/R
DIV
(37)
where V1 =
kΩ99.8
kΩ26.7V1
= 267.54 mV.
Therefore, V2 = 463.93 mV, V3 = 607.21 mV, and V4 = 712.42 mV.
Because the threshold of each comparator has changed, the time
when each comparator changes its output has also changed.
Calculate the new delay values for each comparator by using the
following equation:

THRESHOLD AND TIMEOUT PROGRAMMABLE
VOLTAGE SUPERVISOR
Figure 41 shows a circuit configuration for a programmable
threshold and timeout circuit. The timeout, t
RESET
, defines the
duration that the input voltage (V
IN
) must be kept above the
threshold voltage to toggle the
RESET
signal, preventing the
device from operating when V
IN
is not stable. If V
IN
falls below
the threshold voltage, the
RESET
signal toggles quickly.

Timing Diagram
During startup, the ADCMP394/ADCMP395/ADCMP396
guarantee a low output state when V
CC
is still below the UVLO
threshold, preventing the voltage supervisor from toggling.
When V
IN
reaches the threshold set by the resistor divider (R1
and R2) and V
REF
, OUT1 changes from low to high and starts to
charge the timeout capacitor (C
T
). If V
IN
is kept above the threshold
voltage and the voltage in C
T
reaches V
REF
, OUT2 toggles. If V
IN
falls below the threshold voltage while C
T
is charging, the timeout
capacitor quickly discharges, preventing OUT2 from toggling
while V
IN
is not stable.
In the condition that V
IN
is tied to V
CC
, the circuit operates
when V
CC
is more than the minimum operating voltage.
The threshold voltage (V
TH
) is configured by changing the
resistor divider or V
REF
. Calculate the threshold voltage by

Timeout is adjusted by changing the values of the pull-up
resistor or the timeout capacitor. To set the timeout value,
