Abstract

A brown-out-reset circuit having programmable power and response time characteristics. These characteristics may be programmed over an n-bit wide bus for 2n different characteristics ranging from very low power consumption and slower response time to very fast response time and higher power consumption. A serial one wire bus may be used instead of the n-bit wide bus.
