Pin Description
RST
The ISL88003 push-pull RST output is set to VDD (HIGH)
whenever the device is first powered up or VDD falls below
its respective minimum voltage sense level.
RST
The RST output functions identically to the complementary
RST output. On the ISL88001, this is a push-pull output. On
the ISL88002, it is an open drain output that is pulled to GND
(LOW) when reset is asserted. Suggested pull-up RST
resistor values are in the range of 5kΩ to 100kΩ.
VDD
The VDD pin is the power supply terminal. The voltage at this
pin is compared against an internal factory-programmed
voltage trip point, VTHVDD. A reset is first asserted when the
device is initially powered up to ensure that the power supply
has stabilized. Thereafter, reset is again asserted whenever
VDD falls below VTHVDD. The device is designed with
hysteresis to help prevent chattering due to noise.
Principles of Operation
The ISL88001, ISL88002, ISL88003 devices provide a low
power, high accuracy solution for those voltage monitoring
applications needing supply voltage supervision with power
reset control. By integrating these features into small 3 Ld
SC-70 and 3 Ld SOT-23 packages and consuming as little
as 160nA of supply current, these devices can lower system
cost and reduce board space requirements.
Low Voltage Monitoring
During normal operation, the ISL88001, ISL88002,
ISL88003 devices monitor the voltage level of VDD. The
device asserts a reset signal (RST = LOW or RST = HIGH)
to a µP/µC if this voltage is less than the preset voltage trip
point. The reset signal prevents system operation during a
power failure or brownout condition. This reset signal
remains asserted until VDD exceeds the voltage threshold
setting for the reset time delay period tPOR. See Figure 2.

FIGURE 1. TYPICAL APPLICATION DIAGRAM
Power-On Reset (POR)
Applying power to the ISL88001, ISL88002, ISL88003
activates a POR circuit, which asserts reset once VDD = 1 V.
(i.e. RST goes LOW). This provides several benefits:
• It prevents the system microprocessor from starting to
operate with insufficient voltage.
• It prevents the processor from operating prior to
stabilization of the oscillator.
• It ensures that the monitored device is held out of
operation until internal registers are properly loaded.
• It allows time for an FPGA to download its configuration
prior to initialization of the circuit.
