ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor integrated power-on reset circuit that is formed on the same monolithic substrate as the circuitry that same is adapted to reset in order to obtain higher component density on the monolithic substrate is provided. The circuitry on the monolithic substrate defines a predetermined parasitic capacitance and includes a voltage supply for selectively applying a supply voltage to the circuitry to operate the circuitry at the supply voltage after a first predetermined interval of time. The power-on reset circuit is disposed intermediate the voltage supply and the circuitry and includes at least one pair of complementary coupled P-channel and N-channel MOS transistors, coupled to define an output terminal having the predetermined parasitic capacitance thereat. The output terminal of the reset circuit is coupled to the circuitry and applies a reset signal to the circuitry after the circuitry is energized to the supply voltage in response to the supply voltage being selectively applied to the reset circuit.
