Product details
Overview
ADM692AARN from Analog Devices is a precision microprocessor supervisory circuit in SO-8 package, providing 4.40 V reset threshold, 200 ms reset timeout, 1.6 s watchdog timer, and automatic battery switchover for CMOS RAM backup. It asserts active-low RESET down to 1 V VCC and monitors power fail via 1.25 V internal reference at PFI input - used in industrial controllers and embedded systems requiring reliable brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the ADM692AARN datasheet, ADM692AARN pinout, ADM692AARN application, or ADM692AARN equivalent, key selection considerations include its 4.4 V reset threshold (vs. 4.65 V on ADM690A), SO-8 packaging, battery switchover hysteresis of 40 mV, and compatibility with +5 V systems operating from –40°C to +85°C.
Technical Context
The ADM692AARN integrates four core functions: a precision voltage monitor with 4.40 V ±0.15 V threshold, a 1.6 s watchdog transition detector that resets on WDI inactivity, a 1.25 V reference-based power fail comparator (PFI/PFO), and bidirectional battery switchover with <20 mV switchover threshold and 40 mV hysteresis. All logic outputs are CMOS-compatible with rail-to-rail drive capability.
It operates across VCC = 4.5 V to 5.5 V and supports battery backup with VBATT ≥ 2.8 V. RESET remains functional down to VCC = 1 V, and supply current is 70–100 µA in normal mode and ≤1.0 µA in battery backup - enabling long-term memory retention in low-power embedded systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.40 V (min 4.25 V, max 4.50 V) - ensures reliable reset assertion during 5 V supply brownout before processor instability. |
| Reset Timeout | 200 ms (140–280 ms range) - provides sufficient stabilization time for microprocessor and peripheral power-up sequencing. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6 s (1.0–2.25 s range) - detects software lockup in real-time control loops without false triggering from transient noise. |
| VCC Operating Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with standard +5 V TTL/CMOS logic rails and regulated 5 V supplies. |
| Supply Current | 70–100 µA - enables integration into power-constrained industrial and portable systems without significant load impact. |
| Battery Switchover Threshold | ±20 mV - guarantees clean, glitch-free transition between main supply and backup battery during power loss. |
| PFI Reference Voltage | 1.25 V (±0.025 V) - allows accurate, ratio-based monitoring of non-5 V supplies (e.g., 3.3 V, 12 V) using external resistor dividers. |
Pinout & Package
ADM692AARN is housed in an 8-lead SOIC (SO-8) package measuring 4.90 mm × 3.90 mm × 1.75 mm, with gull-wing leads and 1.27 mm pitch. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or dot; device orientation follows JEDEC MS-012 standard.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (PFO) | Power Fail Output | Open-drain active-low signal indicating PFI voltage drop below 1.25 V - used to trigger NMI or initiate graceful shutdown. |
| 2 (WDI) | Watchdog Input | Three-level input (high/low/floating); toggling required every ≤1.6 s to prevent reset - enables software liveliness verification. |
| 3 (RESET) | Reset Output | Active-low, push-pull output asserted when VCC < 4.40 V or WDI timeout occurs - directly drives µP reset pin with 3.2 mA sink capability. |
| 4 (VBATT) | Battery Input | Backup supply terminal; sources VOUT when VCC drops below switchover threshold - accepts 2.8–6 V lithium or capacitor-based backup. |
| 5 (VOUT) | Output Supply | Switched output connected to VCC or VBATT depending on supply status - powers CMOS RAM with <1 Ω on-resistance and 100 mA capability. |
| 6 (VCC) | Main Power Input | +5 V nominal supply input; device operates from 4.5–5.5 V and maintains RESET functionality down to 1 V - supports brownout detection. |
| 7 (GND) | Ground Reference | Common return path for all analog and digital functions - must be low-impedance to ensure accurate voltage monitoring and noise immunity. |
| 8 (PFI) | Power Fail Input | Non-inverting input of 1.25 V comparator; monitors external supply via resistor divider - enables customizable power-fail warning thresholds. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision 4.40 V Reset Threshold | Tight ±0.15 V tolerance ensures deterministic reset timing across temperature (–40°C to +85°C) and supply variation. |
| 1.6 s Watchdog Timer with Transition Detection | Resets only on WDI inactivity - immune to static DC levels and compatible with GPIO toggle or clock-driven monitoring schemes. |
| Automatic Battery Switchover with 40 mV Hysteresis | Prevents oscillation during marginal VCC/VBATT transitions and extends backup runtime by minimizing switching losses. |
| 1.25 V Internal Reference for PFI Monitoring | Enables accurate, temperature-stable power-fail detection for any supply rail using two external resistors - no external reference needed. |
| RESET Assertion Down to 1 V VCC | Maintains system reset integrity through deep brownout, preventing undefined processor states during catastrophic supply collapse. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controllers | Medical Diagnostic Equipment |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX692AESA+ | Pin-compatible but uses ±1.5% reset threshold (4.40 V ±0.066 V); higher 120 µA quiescent current; no guaranteed 1 V RESET operation. | Lacks 1 V RESET assertion and tighter 40 mV battery switchover hysteresis - less robust in deep brownout scenarios. | Select MAX692AESA+ only if legacy MAXIM footprint reuse is mandatory and 1 V operation is not required. |
| TPS3823-44DBVR | Fixed 4.40 V threshold, but no battery switchover or PFI/PFO functions; watchdog disabled by default; 16 µA typical supply current. | Single-function reset IC - requires external circuitry for battery backup and power-fail warning, increasing BOM count and board area. | Choose TPS3823-44DBVR only when battery switchover and power-fail monitoring are handled elsewhere in the design. |
Compared with MAX692AESA+ and TPS3823-44DBVR, the ADM692AARN uniquely integrates reset, watchdog, battery switchover, and power-fail detection in one SO-8 package - reducing component count, PCB space, and qualification effort for full-featured supervisory needs.

FAQ
What is the exact reset voltage threshold for ADM692AARN?
The ADM692AARN has a nominal reset voltage threshold of 4.40 V, with guaranteed minimum and maximum values of 4.25 V and 4.50 V respectively over the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range. This threshold is factory-trimmed and specified under VCC falling conditions, ensuring consistent brownout detection behavior across operating conditions.
Does ADM692AARN support battery backup for CMOS RAM?
Yes, ADM692AARN provides fully integrated automatic battery switchover: when VCC falls below the reset threshold and drops 20 mV below VBATT, VOUT switches from VCC to VBATT. The internal PMOS switch delivers up to 100 mA with <1 Ω on-resistance, and supply current in backup mode is ≤1.0 µA - ideal for long-term SRAM retention.
Can ADM692AARN monitor non-5 V power supplies?
Yes, ADM692AARN can monitor any supply rail using its PFI input and internal 1.25 V reference. By connecting a resistor divider from the target supply to PFI, users set custom power-fail thresholds - for example, a 12 V rail can be monitored for 11.4 V failure using R1/R2 = 8.12 per VT = (1.25 × R1/R2) + 1.25 V.
What happens to RESET output when VCC drops below 1 V?
The ADM692AARN guarantees RESET assertion down to VCC = 1 V - meaning the output remains actively low even as the main supply collapses. Below 1 V, the device ceases operation and RESET enters high-impedance state; however, this 1 V guarantee ensures full microprocessor hold-down during worst-case brownout transients before complete power loss.
Is ADM692AARN pin-compatible with other devices in its family?
Yes, ADM692AARN shares identical SO-8 pinout and function mapping with ADM690AARN, ADM802MARN, and ADM805MARN - enabling direct substitution where 4.40 V reset threshold and active-low RESET are required. Differences are limited to reset threshold value and RESET polarity (ADM805x variants provide active-high RESET).
