Abstract
A power-on reset circuit includes a first circuit and a second circuit. The first circuit include a first NMOS transistor having a gate controlled by a low voltage supply VDD_L, a resistor connected between the source of the first NMOS transistor and a voltage supply VSS that is lower than VDD_L, and one or more diodes serially connected between a high voltage supply VDD_H and the drain of the first NMOS transistor. The second circuit includes a first PMOS transistor having a source connected to VDD_L, a second PMOS transistor having a source connected to the drain of first PMOS transistor, a second NMOS transistor connected between the drain of the second PMOS transistor and VSS, and an inverter configured to output a signal in response to the power on of the high voltage supply VDD_H and the low voltage supply VDD_L.
