An integrated circuit comprises an input for receiving a supply voltage, a field-effect transistor with a gate which is connected to the input in such a manner that the gate voltage present at the gate is a function of the supply voltage, a voltage source for generating a reference voltage which is connected to the input for receiving the supply voltage, a device for determining whether the gate voltage of the field effect transistor exceeds a turn-on voltage of the field-effect transistor, and a device for generating a ready signal which indicates that the supply voltage is high enough for performing functions of the integrated circuit, the device for generating being constructed for generating the ready signal when the gate voltage of the field-effect transistor exceeds the turn-on voltage of the field-effect transistor. The integrated circuit is characterized by the fact that a device for detecting the reference voltage generated by the voltage source is provided and the device for generating the ready signal is also constructed for generating the ready signal only when the reference voltage lies within a predetermined interval.
