A voltage monitoring circuit is capable of being integrated into a chip and monitoring the voltage quality. It mainly uses a first waveshaper to receive a voltage signal of a voltage source to be measured, process it to a logic signal, and output to a first logic level transformer. A first digital signal is transformed by the processing and can be recorded by a register such that a managing system can read content of the register through a bus to further determine whether the voltage source has a situation of voltage surge. Similarly, an inverter can be concatenated between a second waveshaper and a second logic level transformer to monitor whether the voltage source has undercurrent pulse. This way, an object of monitoring voltage quality in the chip with a combination of simple analog circuit can be achieved.
