AUTO RETRY fOR MAX1637 STEP-DOWN CONTROLLER ELECTRONIC DIAGRAM

On microprocessor supervisor (IC1), an internal power-fail comparator and manual-reset circuitry (MR) is included. IC1's PFI input will detect when Vout(1.8V) is above the internal reference voltage (1.25V). Active-low RESET and active-low SHDN go high after a timeout delay of 140ms, re-enabling IC2. The other way to re-enabling IC2 is when the supply voltage is first switched on : the 3.5V rail stabilizes after 140ms will cause active-low RST to go high and activate IC2.The active-low PFO output produces a pulse using the internal 60k pull-up resistor and external 0.1 uF capacitor if Vout falls below 1.25V (due to a short circuit, for instance).
