Product details
Overview
ADM706ARZ-REEL from Analog Devices is a low-cost microprocessor supervisory circuit designed for 5 V supply monitoring in embedded systems. It provides active-low reset output with 4.40 V threshold, 200 ms reset pulse width, 190 μA quiescent current, and integrated watchdog timer (1.60 sec timeout), used to ensure reliable power-up sequencing and stall detection in industrial controllers.
For engineers reviewing the ADM706ARZ-REEL datasheet, ADM706ARZ-REEL pinout, ADM706ARZ-REEL application, or ADM706ARZ-REEL equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy, guaranteed RESET validity down to 1 V VCC, manual reset debouncing, power-fail warning via PFI/PFO, and SOIC-8 package compatibility with automated assembly.
Technical Context
The ADM706ARZ-REEL implements a precision voltage monitor with 4.40 V ±150 mV threshold and 40 mV hysteresis, ensuring stable reset assertion during brownout conditions. Its internal watchdog timer resets on any WDI transition and times out after 1.60 sec if inactive, supporting fail-safe microprocessor supervision.
It integrates a 1.25 V reference-based power-fail comparator (PFI/PFO) for early warning of supply degradation or battery depletion, and features TTL/CMOS-compatible MR input with 250 μA internal pull-up and 150 ns minimum pulse width requirement.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.40 V ±150 mV - triggers reset when 5 V supply drops below safe operating level for microprocessor core logic |
| Reset Pulse Width | 200 ms typical - ensures sufficient hold time for microprocessor power stabilization and clock lock |
| Quiescent Current | 190 μA - enables long-term battery-backed operation without significant drain |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.60 sec - detects software hangs before critical system state corruption occurs |
| PFI Threshold | 1.25 V ±50 mV - allows configurable power-fail detection via external resistor divider for secondary supply monitoring |
| VCC Validity Range | 1.0 V to 5.5 V - guarantees RESET remains asserted and functional even during deep brownout or battery sag |
| MR Input Pull-Up | 250 μA - eliminates need for external pull-up resistor when interfacing with open-drain or mechanical switch sources |
Pinout & Package
ADM706ARZ-REEL is housed in an 8-lead SOIC_N (R-8) package, 3.90 mm × 4.90 mm body, 1.27 mm lead pitch, compliant with JEDEC MS-012-AA. Pin 1 is marked by beveled corner or dot; device orientation follows standard SOIC top-view convention.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (MR) | Manual Reset Input | TTL/CMOS-compatible debounced input; driven low to force reset; internally pulled up at 250 μA |
| 2 (VCC) | Power Supply Input | 5 V supply connection; requires 0.1 μF decoupling capacitor to GND for noise immunity |
| 3 (GND) | Ground Reference | 0 V return path for all analog and digital functions; must be low-impedance connection |
| 4 (PFI) | Power-Fail Input | Noninverting input to 1.25 V comparator; monitors auxiliary supply via resistive divider |
| 5 (PFO) | Power-Fail Output | Active-low open-drain output signaling supply degradation or low-battery condition |
| 6 (WDI) | Watchdog Input | Three-level input; toggled by processor to prevent timeout; floating disables watchdog |
| 7 (RESET) | Reset Output | Active-low push-pull output; asserted for 200 ms on power-up, brownout, or MR activation |
| 8 (WDO) | Watchdog Output | Active-low open-drain output; goes low on timeout or VCC < 4.40 V; can drive MR for auto-reset |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guaranteed RESET below 1 V VCC | Ensures microprocessor remains held in reset during full power collapse, preventing undefined states |
| Integrated watchdog timer | 1.60 sec timeout with WDI edge-triggered reset - eliminates need for external timing components |
| Power-fail comparator with PFI/PFO | 1.25 V reference enables monitoring of secondary supplies or battery voltage without external reference |
| Debounced MR input | 200 ms internal debounce eliminates contact bounce issues with mechanical reset switches |
| SOIC-8 RoHS-compliant packaging | R-8 footprint supports high-volume SMT assembly and reflow compatibility per JEDEC MS-012-AA |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX706CSA+ | 4.40 V reset threshold, 200 ms timeout, but no integrated PFI/PFO comparator; 1.6 μA max quiescent current | Lacks power-fail warning capability; suitable only where secondary supply monitoring is unnecessary | Select when lowest standby current is prioritized over dual-supply monitoring |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3 V reset threshold, adjustable watchdog (1.25 ms–10 sec), 1.8 μA quiescent current, no PFI input | Designed for 3.3 V systems; incompatible threshold for 5 V applications without level-shifting | Choose only for new 3.3 V designs requiring ultra-low IQ; not drop-in for ADM706ARZ-REEL |
Compared with MAX706CSA+ and TPS3808G33DBVR, the ADM706ARZ-REEL uniquely combines 5 V system compatibility, integrated power-fail warning (PFI/PFO), and watchdog supervision in a single SOIC-8 package-enabling consolidated BOMs and simplified layout for industrial 5 V microcontroller platforms.

FAQ
What is the reset threshold voltage of the ADM706ARZ-REEL and how is it specified?
The ADM706ARZ-REEL has a nominal reset threshold of 4.40 V, with a tolerance of ±150 mV (4.25 V to 4.50 V) over the full industrial temperature range (−40°C to +85°C). This value is guaranteed in the datasheet Table 1 under "Reset Threshold" for ADM706/ADM708 variants. The threshold is referenced to an internal bandgap, ensuring stability across voltage and temperature variations, and directly determines when the RESET output asserts during power-down or brownout events.
Does the ADM706ARZ-REEL support watchdog functionality, and how is it enabled?
Yes, the ADM706ARZ-REEL includes a fully integrated watchdog timer with a nominal timeout period of 1.60 sec. It is enabled by applying periodic transitions (high-to-low or low-to-high) to the WDI pin; absence of transitions beyond the timeout causes WDO to go low. The watchdog is automatically disabled if WDI is left floating or connected to a high-impedance source. No external components are required-timing is factory-trimmed and does not depend on external RC networks.
Can the ADM706ARZ-REEL monitor a second power supply, and what interface is used?
Yes, the ADM706ARZ-REEL can monitor a second supply using its dedicated PFI (Power-Fail Input) pin, which connects to the noninverting input of an internal 1.25 V comparator. A simple two-resistor divider scales the auxiliary supply voltage to match the 1.25 V threshold; when the scaled voltage falls below 1.25 V, PFO goes low. This enables early-warning detection of battery depletion or preregulator failure without additional ICs.
What is the minimum VCC voltage at which the ADM706ARZ-REEL guarantees valid RESET output?
The ADM706ARZ-REEL guarantees valid RESET output down to VCC = 1.0 V, as explicitly stated in the Features section and validated in Figure 6 of the datasheet. At 1 V, RESET remains low with a maximum VOL of 0.3 V (ISINK = 50 µA), ensuring the microprocessor stays in a known reset state during deep brownout. This specification exceeds most competing supervisors and is critical for battery-powered systems experiencing gradual voltage decay.
Is the ADM706ARZ-REEL pin-compatible with other members of the ADM705–ADM708 family?
Yes, the ADM706ARZ-REEL shares identical pinout and package (SOIC-8 R-8) with ADM705ARZ-REEL, ADM707ARZ-REEL, and ADM708ARZ-REEL. However, functional differences exist: ADM705/ADM706 include WDI/WDO pins, while ADM707/ADM708 replace WDI/WDO with NC and active-high RESET. Thus, ADM706ARZ-REEL is pin-compatible with ADM705ARZ-REEL but not functionally interchangeable with ADM707/ADM708 variants without circuit modification.
