Single-rail supervisor with a 4.65V threshold
The MAX702CPA: The 200ms minimum reset timeout holds the downstream processor or logic in reset long enough for the supply and oscillator to stabilise after power-up, preventing brown-out or glitch-triggered misbehaviour.
Push-pull output with no external pull-up needed
The push-pull, totem-pole output drives the reset pin directly — no external pull-up resistor is required, which saves two passives per rail on the board. Active-low reset polarity matches the convention used by most MCUs and DSPs; the IC sinks or sources current to hold the reset line low during fault conditions.
Through-hole 8-DIP for prototyping or legacy builds
RoHS non-compliant status means the part carries lead-bearing solder finish — acceptable under many military, aerospace, and medical exemptions, but a compliance flag for standard commercial RoHS builds.
