Product details
Overview
ADM1232ARW-REEL7 from Analog Devices is a 5 V microprocessor supervisory circuit in a 16-lead SOIC_W (RW-16) package, featuring adjustable voltage trip points (4.5 V or 4.75 V), programmable strobe timeout (150 ms / 600 ms / 1.2 s), push-button reset with 20 ms debounce, and dual active-high/active-low RESET outputs. It monitors supply voltage integrity, detects microprocessor lockup via STROBE activity, and supports power-up reset assertion in embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the ADM1232ARW-REEL7 datasheet, ADM1232ARW-REEL7 pinout, ADM1232ARW-REEL7 application, or ADM1232ARW-REEL7 equivalent, key selection criteria include VCC trip tolerance selection (5% or 10%), TD-configurable watchdog timeout, open-drain RESET output drive capability, guaranteed reset timing under fast VCC fall/rise, and compatibility with industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C) designs.
Technical Context
The ADM1232ARW-REEL7 integrates a precision voltage monitor, a debounced push-button input, a configurable watchdog timer driven by STROBE transitions, and dual complementary reset outputs. Its TOLERANCE pin selects between 5% (4.75 V) and 10% (4.5 V) VCC trip thresholds, while TD pin state (GND/floating/VCC) sets three discrete strobe timeout windows.
RESET is a push-pull output capable of sourcing 8–10 mA and sinking −8 to −12 mA, whereas RESET is an open-drain MOSFET requiring external pull-up. The device asserts reset on VCC drop below threshold, PB RESET low ≥20 ms, or STROBE inactivity beyond TD-selected timeout - all with guaranteed propagation delays ≤1000 ms.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Trip Voltage | 4.5 V (10% tolerance) or 4.75 V (5% tolerance); selected by TOLERANCE pin connection to VCC or GND. |
| Strobe Timeout | 150 ms (TD = GND), 600 ms (TD = floating), or 1.2 s (TD = VCC); determines max STROBE inactivity before reset. |
| Reset Active Time | 250–1000 ms; ensures stable processor reset duration across temperature and supply variation. |
| Push-Button Debounce | 20 ms minimum low pulse required; rejects transients <1 ms, enabling reliable manual reset without external RC. |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial-grade embedded systems and automotive control modules. |
| Supply Current | 20–50 μA (CMOS-level inputs); ultra-low quiescent current enables use in battery-backed portable equipment. |
| RESET Output Type | Push-pull; drives high/low actively without pull-up, simplifying interface to 5 V logic families. |
| RESET Output Type | Open-drain; requires external pull-up but allows wired-OR configuration with other reset sources. |
Pinout & Package
ADM1232ARW-REEL7 is housed in a 16-lead SOIC_W (RW-16) package per JEDEC MS-013-AA, with 0.050" (1.27 mm) lead pitch, 10.10 mm × 7.50 mm body, and thermal resistance θJA = 73°C/W.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 12, 14, 16 | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating or tied to GND per layout best practice. |
| 2 | PB RESET | Debounced active-low manual reset input; asserts reset when held low ≥20 ms. |
| 4 | TD | Time delay select input; configures STROBE timeout period (GND/floating/VCC). |
| 6 | TOLERANCE | Voltage trip threshold selector; GND = 5% (4.75 V), VCC = 10% (4.5 V). |
| 8 | GND | 0 V reference for all analog and digital functions; requires low-impedance PCB plane. |
| 9 | RESET | Active-high push-pull reset output; drives logic-high or logic-low directly to MCU reset pin. |
| 11 | RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output; requires external pull-up for system-level reset bus sharing. |
| 13 | STROBE | Watchdog input; monitored for high-to-low transitions; inactivity beyond TD timeout triggers reset. |
| 15 | VCC | 5 V power supply input; operates over 4.5 V–5.5 V; internal bandgap reference derived from this rail. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Pin-compatible supervision | Direct replacement for MAX1232 and Dallas DS1232LP, enabling drop-in upgrade without layout change. |
| Adjustable VCC monitoring | Two factory-trimmed trip points (4.5 V or 4.75 V) selectable via single TOLERANCE pin connection. |
| Configurable watchdog timeout | Three discrete STROBE timeout options (150/600/1200 ms) set by TD pin voltage level - no external capacitor needed. |
| No external components | Full supervision functionality achieved with zero external resistors, capacitors, or diodes - reduces BOM count and board area. |
| Industrial temperature operation | Guaranteed performance from −40°C to +85°C, validated across full VCC range (4.5 V–5.5 V) and load conditions. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX1232CPD+ | Same 8-pin PDIP footprint; identical VCC trip (4.5 V/4.75 V) and strobe timeout options; lower θJA (100°C/W) limits thermal headroom in dense layouts. | Targeted at cost-sensitive, non-RoHS legacy designs; lacks RW-16 packaging option and extended temperature validation. | Select when replacing existing MAX1232-based designs with minimal layout impact and no RoHS requirement. |
| DS1232LPN+ | Pin-compatible 8-pin SOIC_N (R-8); same functional spec but higher quiescent current (200–500 μA vs. 20–50 μA); no RW-16 variant available. | Suitable for space-constrained consumer electronics where ultra-low standby current is not critical. | Choose for compact R-8 footprint where power budget permits higher sleep current and RW-16 is unavailable. |
Compared with MAX1232CPD+ and DS1232LPN+, the ADM1232ARW-REEL7 offers superior thermal performance (θJA = 73°C/W), lowest supply current, and the only wide-body SOIC option supporting high-density industrial PCB layouts - making it optimal for thermally demanding, long-life embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the function of the TD pin on the ADM1232ARW-REEL7?
The TD (Time Delay) pin on the ADM1232ARW-REEL7 selects the strobe timeout period by its voltage state: grounded (0 V) configures 150 ms, floating selects 600 ms, and tied to VCC sets 1.2 s. This determines the maximum allowable interval between high-to-low transitions on the STROBE input before the ADM1232ARW-REEL7 asserts reset - enabling flexible watchdog timing without external components.
How does the TOLERANCE pin affect the ADM1232ARW-REEL7's voltage monitoring behavior?
The TOLERANCE pin on the ADM1232ARW-REEL7 sets the VCC trip point: connecting it to GND selects a 5% tolerance (4.75 V nominal trip), while connecting it to VCC selects 10% tolerance (4.5 V nominal trip). This direct hardware configuration eliminates software calibration or external resistor dividers, ensuring precise, repeatable brownout detection aligned with system-level supply specifications for the ADM1232ARW-REEL7.
Can the ADM1232ARW-REEL7 be used with a 3.3 V microprocessor system?
No - the ADM1232ARW-REEL7 is specified exclusively for 5 V operation (VCC = 4.5 V to 5.5 V) and generates reset signals referenced to that rail. Its internal bandgap, comparators, and output drivers are optimized for 5 V logic levels. Using it with a 3.3 V microprocessor would risk incorrect reset assertion timing and potential damage due to overvoltage on RESET/RESET outputs; a dedicated 3.3 V supervisor like ADM1185 should be used instead of the ADM1232ARW-REEL7.
What is the difference between the RESET and RESET outputs of the ADM1232ARW-REEL7?
The RESET output of the ADM1232ARW-REEL7 is a push-pull driver capable of sourcing up to 10 mA and sinking up to 12 mA, allowing direct connection to a 5 V microprocessor reset pin. In contrast, RESET is an open-drain MOSFET output that sinks current only and requires an external pull-up resistor - enabling wired-OR reset bus configurations where multiple sources (e.g., power monitor, watchdog, manual switch) share a common reset line in systems using the ADM1232ARW-REEL7.
Is the ADM1232ARW-REEL7 RoHS compliant?
Yes - the ADM1232ARW-REEL7 is RoHS compliant, as confirmed by Analog Devices' ordering guide (Rev. C, Page 9), where "Z" suffix denotes RoHS compliance. The part carries lead-free terminations and meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU requirements, making it suitable for environmentally regulated industrial and medical electronics where the ADM1232ARW-REEL7 is deployed.
