What this supervisor does on the rail
The open-drain output lets you connect it to a pull-up resistor at any logic level (1.8V, 3.3V, 5V) without level shifters, and it supports wired-OR connections with other reset sources. The SOT-23-3 package fits tight layouts, and the -40°C to 125°C junction temperature range covers industrial and automotive under-hood environments.
Open-drain output — wiring flexibility
Because the output is open drain, the reset signal can be pulled up to any voltage independent of the monitored rail.
