According to the invention, the generation of the trigger voltage division and the adjustment of the power consumption of the power-on reset circuit through the voltage division MOS tube and the voltage division resistor R0 comprises the following steps:
When the voltage of the power supply VDD is lower than the sum of threshold voltages of the first voltage dividing NMOS tube M1 and the second voltage dividing NMOS tube M0, the first voltage dividing NMOS tube M1 and the second voltage dividing NMOS tube M0 are not conducted, the intrinsic NMOS tube M2 is conducted without current, and the voltage division is triggered to be high level;
When the voltage of the power supply VDD is not less than the sum of the threshold voltages of the first voltage dividing NMOS transistor M1 and the second voltage dividing NMOS transistor M0 and gradually increases, the voltage between the source and the drain of the intrinsic NMOS transistor M2 gradually increases, the current flowing through the voltage gradually increases, the voltage between the gate and the source gradually decreases, and the value of the voltage is equal to the negative value of the product of the current flowing through the intrinsic NMOS transistor M2 and the voltage dividing resistor R0, in this process, the intrinsic NMOS transistor M2 works in a linear region and triggers the voltage dividing to gradually decrease;

Preferably, the hysteresis device performs signal hysteresis by triggering the voltage division and the output signal of the comparator, and avoiding reset voltage jitter caused by power supply VDD voltage jitter includes:
When the trigger voltage division is at a high level, the output voltage of the comparator is at a low level, and the hysteresis is turned off;
When the trigger voltage is gradually reduced to the threshold voltage of the comparator, the output voltage of the comparator is high level, the first hysteresis NMOS tube M4 is turned on due to the rising of the grid voltage, the second hysteresis NMOS tube M3 is turned on accordingly to continuously pull down the trigger voltage, and if the power supply VDD voltage in the power-down process is reduced to the trigger point voltage in the rising of the power supply VDD, the trigger voltage prevents the reset voltage from changing from the logic high level to the logic low level unless the power supply VDD voltage is continuously reduced, so that reset voltage jitter caused by the shaking of the power supply VDD voltage is avoided.

In this process, the intrinsic NMOS tube works in the linear region, and the trigger voltage is gradually reduced; 当电源电压增大到触发点电压时,触发分压足够低使复位电压从逻辑低电平突变到逻辑高电平;When the power supply voltage increases to the trigger point voltage, the trigger voltage is low enough to make the reset voltage suddenly change from a logic low level to a logic high level; 当电源电压继续增大,使得所述本征NMOS管的栅源极之间的电压的减小引起流经其的电流的减小超过源漏极之间的电压变大引起流经其的电流的变大时,所述本征NMOS管工作在饱和区,流经其的电流保持不变,所述触发分压的值与所述第二分压NMOS管栅源极电压接近且保持不变;When the power supply voltage continues to increase, so that the decrease in the voltage between the gate and source of the intrinsic NMOS tube causes the decrease in the current flowing through it to exceed the increase in the voltage between the source and drain causing the increase in the current flowing through it, the intrinsic NMOS tube operates in the saturation region, the current flowing through it remains unchanged, and the value of the trigger voltage division is close to the gate-source voltage of the second voltage division NMOS tube and remains unchanged; 通过调节分压电阻的大小,调整流过所述分压器通路的电流,进而调整上电复位电路的功耗。By adjusting the size of the voltage divider resistor, the current flowing through the voltage divider path is adjusted, thereby adjusting the power consumption of the power-on reset circuit. 7.根据权利要求6所述的上电复位电路,其特征在于,所述迟滞器通过所述触发分压和比较器的输出信号进行信号迟滞,避免因电源电压抖动造成的复位电压抖动包括:7.

If the power supply voltage at power-off drops to the trigger point voltage when the power supply rises, the trigger voltage divider prevents the reset voltage from changing from a logic high level to a logic low level unless the power supply voltage continues to decrease, thereby avoiding reset voltage jitter caused by power supply voltage jitter. 8.根据权利要求7所述的上电复位电路,其特征在于,所述缓冲器将所述比较器输出的逻辑信号转化为驱动信号驱动外部电路包括:8.
