Product details
Overview
ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 from Analog Devices is a precision microprocessor reset circuit with push-pull active-low RESET output, 3.8 V reset threshold (±2.5% over −40°C to +85°C), 100 ms minimum reset timeout, and ultralow 1 µA max supply current at 3.3 V. It monitors 3.3–5 V rails in portable microprocessor systems requiring brownout protection and glitch-immune power-up sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 datasheet, ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 pinout, ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 application, or ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy, push-pull drive capability without external pull-up, operation down to 1 V VCC, and SOT-23-3 footprint compatibility for space-constrained embedded designs.
Technical Context
The ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference and comparator with built-in hysteresis (9.5 mV) to reject noise and negative-going VCC transients. Its internal 100–280 ms reset timeout timer ensures reliable microprocessor initialization after power-up or brownout recovery.
Unlike open-drain variants (e.g., ADM6348-38ARTZ-R7), this device features a push-pull RESET output capable of sourcing up to 800 µA at VCC ≥ 4.5 V and sinking 1.6 mA while maintaining VOL ≤ 0.3 V - eliminating need for external pull-up resistors in most host interface configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold Voltage | 3.8 V ±2.5% (−40°C to +85°C); ensures reliable detection of 3.3 V/5 V rail undervoltage before system instability occurs. |
| Supply Current (ICC) | 1.0 µA max at 3.3 V; enables multi-year battery life in always-on portable equipment monitoring logic supplies. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 100–280 ms; guarantees microprocessor remains held in reset until power rails stabilize post-power-up. |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.0 V to 5.5 V; allows valid RESET assertion even during deep brownout conditions down to 1 V VCC. |
| RESET Output Type | Active-low push-pull; drives low without external components and sources/sinks sufficient current for direct MCU reset pin interfacing. |
| Hysteresis | 9.5 mV; prevents oscillatory reset toggling near threshold due to supply ripple or noise. |
| Temperature Range | −40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial and extended-temperature embedded applications. |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND (Pin 1) | Ground reference | 0 V return path for internal reference and comparator; must be connected directly to system ground plane. |
| RESET (Pin 2) | Active-low push-pull output | Drives low when VCC < 3.8 V; holds low for ≥100 ms after VCC rises above threshold; sinks 1.6 mA min at VCC > 2.1 V. |
| VCC (Pin 3) | Monitored supply input | Input voltage source being supervised; device operates and asserts RESET down to 1.0 V on this pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultralow ICC | 1 µA max at 3.3 V enables integration into energy-harvesting and coin-cell-powered systems without measurable battery drain. |

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 and how tightly is it specified?
The ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 has a nominal reset threshold of 3.8 V, specified as 3.743 V (min) to 3.857 V (max) at 25°C, and 3.705 V (min) to 3.895 V (max) over the full −40°C to +85°C operating range - representing ±2.5% tolerance across temperature. This tight specification ensures consistent brownout detection across environmental conditions without calibration.
Does ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 require an external pull-up resistor on its RESET pin?
No, ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 does not require an external pull-up resistor because it features an active-low push-pull RESET output. The device actively drives the RESET line high (VOH ≥ 0.8 × VCC) and low (VOL ≤ 0.3 V at 1.6 mA sink), enabling direct connection to microprocessor reset inputs without additional components - unlike open-drain variants such as ADM6348-38ARTZ-R7.
Can ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 operate when the monitored supply voltage drops below 2.0 V?
Yes, ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 remains fully functional and continues asserting RESET down to VCC = 1.0 V. Its internal circuitry maintains valid comparator operation and push-pull output drive capability even at 1.0 V, providing complete brownout coverage for applications experiencing severe supply collapse - a critical feature absent in many competing supervisory ICs.
What is the reset timeout duration of ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 and is it adjustable?
The ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 provides a fixed minimum reset timeout of 100 ms, with typical duration of 185 ms and maximum of 280 ms over temperature. This timing is internally generated and non-adjustable - designed to guarantee sufficient hold time for microprocessor power stabilization without external RC networks or configuration pins.
How does ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 handle fast voltage transients on the VCC line?
ADM6346-38ARTZ-R7 incorporates built-in glitch immunity that rejects negative-going VCC transients up to 200 mV amplitude for pulse widths under 1 µs, as verified in Figure 5 of the datasheet. This prevents false resets caused by switching noise or EFT events, ensuring robust operation in electrically noisy environments like motor drives or industrial power systems.
