Product details
Overview
ADM708RAR-REEL from Analog Devices is a 3 V microprocessor supervisory circuit with dual active-high/active-low reset outputs, 2.63 V reset threshold, 200 ms reset pulse width, and integrated power-fail comparator (1.25 V threshold). It monitors supply integrity in embedded controllers and battery-powered instruments where reliable power-on reset and brownout detection are critical.
For engineers reviewing the ADM708RAR-REEL datasheet, ADM708RAR-REEL pinout, ADM708RAR-REEL application, or ADM708RAR-REEL equivalent, this page delivers verified functional specifications, validated SOIC-8 package mapping, confirmed dual-reset behavior, and real-world timing and voltage monitoring constraints - all directly traceable to Analog Devices Rev. E datasheet.
Technical Context
The ADM708RAR-REEL implements a precision voltage monitor with fixed 2.63 V reset threshold and guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = 1 V. Its dual-reset architecture provides both active-low (RESET) and active-high (RESET) outputs simultaneously, eliminating need for external inverters in bidirectional reset systems.
It integrates a dedicated 1.25 V power-fail comparator (PFI/PFO) for early warning of supply collapse and includes a debounced manual reset input (MR) with 70 µA internal pull-up. Unlike the ADM706 family, it omits watchdog timer functionality, simplifying design where software supervision is handled externally.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.63 V ±70 mV - sets precise brownout detection point for 3 V systems |
| Reset Pulse Width | 200 ms typical - ensures sufficient processor stabilization time after power-up or recovery |
| Supply Current | 100 µA typical at VCC < 3.6 V - enables long battery life in portable instrumentation |
| Power-Fail Threshold | 1.25 V ±50 mV - enables configurable early-warning shutdown via external resistor divider |
| Reset Output Drive | VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC / VOL ≤ 0.3 V at 500 µA sink - compatible with TTL/CMOS logic interfaces |
| Operating Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - supports 3 V and 3.3 V rails with margin for ripple and dropout |
| Temperature Range | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial embedded environments |
Pinout & Package
ADM708RAR-REEL is housed in an 8-lead SOIC_N (R-8) package per JEDEC MS-012-AA, with 1.27 mm lead pitch and gull-wing leads. The package is RoHS-compliant and reel-packaged for automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 MR | Manual Reset Input | Debounced TTL/CMOS-compatible input; internally pulled up with 70 µA; triggers reset when pulled below 0.6 V |
| 2 VCC | Power Supply Input | Primary supply rail connection; requires 0.1 µF decoupling capacitor to GND |
| 3 GND | Ground Reference | Common return path for all internal circuits and output drivers |
| 4 PFI | Power-Fail Input | Noninverting input to 1.25 V comparator; used with external resistor divider to monitor secondary supplies |
| 5 PFO | Power-Fail Output | Active-low open-drain output signaling supply collapse; sinks ≥1.2 mA at VOL ≤ 0.3 V |
| 6 NC | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating - no external connection permitted |
| 7 RESET | Active-Low Reset Output | Push-pull output asserted low for 200 ms during power-up, brownout, or MR assertion |
| 8 RESET | Active-High Reset Output | Complementary push-pull output asserted high for same duration - enables direct interface to bidirectional reset pins |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent reset outputs | Simultaneous active-high and active-low RESET signals eliminate need for external level-shifting or inversion |
| Guaranteed reset operation down to 1 V VCC | Ensures microprocessor remains held in reset during full power-rail collapse, preventing undefined states |
| Integrated 1.25 V power-fail comparator | Enables early warning of supply decay via PFI/PFO pair - supports orderly shutdown before VCC drops below reset threshold |
| Debounced manual reset input | 70 µA internal pull-up and 200 ms timeout prevent contact bounce from causing spurious resets |
| SOIC-8 package with reel packaging | Standard surface-mount footprint compatible with automated PCB assembly; REEL suffix indicates tape-and-reel delivery |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADM708SAR-REEL | Higher 2.93 V reset threshold; identical dual-reset, PFI/PFO, and SOIC-8 package | Suitable for 3.3 V systems requiring tighter reset margin above nominal rail | Select when system VCC nominal is 3.3 V and brownout detection must occur closer to rail voltage |
| MAX708SUR+T | Maxim Integrated part with same 2.63 V threshold, dual reset, and SO-8 package; lacks PFI hysteresis support | Drop-in replacement in legacy designs; lower quiescent current (20 µA vs. 100 µA) | Choose for cost-sensitive industrial designs where lower supply current outweighs hysteresis configurability |
Compared with ADM708SAR-REEL, ADM708RAR-REEL offers earlier brownout response for 3 V rails; compared with MAX708SUR+T, it provides superior noise-immune PFI comparator design with explicit hysteresis guidance but draws higher quiescent current.

FAQ
What is the reset threshold voltage of the ADM708RAR-REEL?
The ADM708RAR-REEL has a fixed reset threshold of 2.63 V, with ±70 mV tolerance over temperature and supply. This value is factory-trimmed and applies to both active-low and active-high reset outputs. It is optimized for reliable brownout detection in 3 V systems and remains valid down to VCC = 1 V, ensuring the microprocessor stays held in reset during full supply collapse.
Does the ADM708RAR-REEL include a watchdog timer function?
No, the ADM708RAR-REEL does not include a watchdog timer. Unlike the ADM706P/R/S/T series, the ADM708R/S/T family replaces the WDI/WDO watchdog interface with a second reset output (RESET). Pin 6 is designated NC (No Connect), confirming absence of watchdog functionality. Systems requiring software supervision must implement that externally.
How does the power-fail comparator (PFI/PFO) operate in the ADM708RAR-REEL?
The ADM708RAR-REEL's PFI input connects to a precision 1.25 V internal reference comparator. When voltage at PFI falls below 1.25 V, PFO asserts low. PFI accepts voltages up to VCC + 0.3 V and is intended for use with external resistor dividers to monitor secondary supplies. Hysteresis can be added via feedback from PFO to PFI, as documented in Figure 18 of the datasheet.
Can the ADM708RAR-REEL drive bidirectional reset lines directly?
Yes - the ADM708RAR-REEL's dual RESET and RESET outputs enable direct interface to bidirectional reset pins without external buffering. To prevent contention, Analog Devices recommends inserting a 4.7 kΩ current-limiting resistor between either output and the microprocessor reset pin, as specified in Figure 23 of the datasheet.
What package type and reel specification does ADM708RAR-REEL use?
The ADM708RAR-REEL is supplied in an 8-lead SOIC_N (R-8) package per JEDEC MS-012-AA, with 1.27 mm lead pitch and gull-wing leads. The "-REEL" suffix confirms tape-and-reel packaging per EIA-481-D standard, optimized for SMT placement. Dimensions are 5.00 mm × 4.00 mm × 1.50 mm (L × W × H).
