2-5. +5V Line Voltage Detector Circuit
The voltage-detection IC detects momentary drops or unstable levels in the +5V line voltage.
The following illustrates the equivalence circuit of the voltage detector IC (Fig. 2-9 IC4).
Fig. 2-11 Equivalence Circuit for Voltage Detecting IC
The following operation timing chart shows control is performed by the voltage detector IC output. If the +5V line voltage
falls below 4.25V, the IC produces a reset signal from its OUT terminal, resetting the CPU and the gate array.
