Abstract
Disclosed is a reset circuit including a low voltage detecting circuit receiving a power signal and outputting a signal, the low voltage detecting circuit including a first cell configured to receive the power signal and output the voltage corresponding to the logic “0” based on the power signal being smaller than a threshold voltage or a voltage corresponding to logic “1” based on the power signal being greater than the threshold voltage, at least one second cell connected in series to the first cell and outputting a signal inputted from the first cell after delaying the signal for a predetermined delay time, and a third cell outputting a low voltage reset signal by receiving all signals outputted from the first cell and the at least one second cell.
