AME AME8500/8501 Processor Supervisory Datasheet
The AME8500 family of processor supervisory circuits allows users to customize CPU reset functions without external components. These devices monitor power supply voltages in battery-based systems, asserting a reset immediately if the voltage drops below a preset threshold and releasing it after a specific time interval once the voltage recovers.

Questions answered in these manuals
What is the function of the AME8501 overtemperature shutdown?
When the ambient temperature exceeds 80°C a reset is asserted and remains asserted until the temperature falls below 60°C.
Is an external pull-up resistor required for open-drain outputs?
Yes, an external pull-up resistor is required if an open-drain output is used.
