MAX6754–MAX6764
Low-Power, Single/Dual-Voltage Window Detectors
Applications Information
Microprocessor Monitoring
Figure 8 shows a microprocessor monitoring circuit. An
overvoltage condition on either the core or I/O supply
turns the SCR on, blowing the fuse to disconnect the
circuit from the power source. An optional capacitor (C1)
on the gate of the SCR provides additional transient
immunity against nuisance trips.
