Product details
Overview
ADM708TARZ-REEL from Analog Devices is a 3.08 V precision microprocessor supervisory circuit in an 8-lead SOIC package, providing dual active-high/active-low reset outputs, 200 ms reset pulse width, 100 µA quiescent current, and 1.25 V power-fail comparator for low-battery detection in battery-operated embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the ADM708TARZ-REEL datasheet, ADM708TARZ-REEL pinout, ADM708TARZ-REEL application, or ADM708TARZ-REEL equivalent, this page delivers verified functional specifications, validated pin roles, confirmed reset threshold (3.08 V), guaranteed RESET validity down to 1 V VCC, and real-world timing behavior for microprocessor reset coordination and power-fail warning integration.
Technical Context
The ADM708TARZ-REEL implements a dual-output reset generator with independent 3.08 V supply monitoring and a 1.25 V reference-based power-fail comparator. It lacks watchdog timer circuitry-unlike the ADM706x series-but provides both RESET (active low) and RESET (active high) outputs simultaneously for bidirectional or mixed-logic microprocessor interfaces.
Its internal 70 µA MR pull-up enables direct switch connection without external biasing, and its PFI/PFO pair supports early-warning shutdown sequencing via resistive divider networks. RESET remains valid with VCC as low as 1 V, ensuring deterministic processor hold-down during brownout recovery.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.08 V ±75 mV - precisely monitors 3.3 V supplies with defined hysteresis for stable power-on reset assertion. |
| Reset Pulse Width | 200 ms typical - ensures sufficient time for microprocessor initialization and clock stabilization after power-up or brownout recovery. |
| Quiescent Current | 100 µA at VCC < 3.6 V - enables long-term operation in battery-powered instruments without significant drain. |
| Power-Fail Threshold | 1.25 V ±50 mV - detects falling input rails or battery voltage decay before system failure, triggering orderly shutdown via PFO interrupt. |
| VCC Operating Range | 3.15 V to 5.5 V - compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains while maintaining reset accuracy across temperature. |
| RESET Validity | Guaranteed down to VCC = 1 V - maintains asserted state through deep brownout, preventing spurious release during unstable supply conditions. |
| Output Drive Strength | VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC / VOL ≤ 0.3 V @ 500 µA sink - directly interfaces TTL/CMOS inputs without level-shifting or buffering. |
Pinout & Package
ADM708TARZ-REEL is housed in an 8-lead narrow SOIC (R-8) package per JEDEC MS-012-AA, with 1.27 mm lead pitch and gull-wing leads. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or dot; device orientation follows standard SOIC top-view convention.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (MR) | Manual Reset Input | Debounced TTL/CMOS-compatible input; internally pulled up with 70 µA; asserts reset when pulled below 0.6 V. |
| 2 (VCC) | Power Supply Input | Primary supply rail connection; requires 0.1 µF decoupling capacitor to GND for noise immunity. |
| 3 (GND) | Ground Reference | Common return path for all internal circuits and output drivers; must connect to system ground plane. |
| 4 (PFI) | Power-Fail Input | Noninverting input to 1.25 V comparator; accepts scaled-down supply voltage via resistor divider for early warning detection. |
| 5 (PFO) | Power-Fail Output | Active-low open-drain output signaling PFI < 1.25 V; drives NMI or MR to initiate controlled shutdown. |
| 6 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating or tied to GND-no electrical function or routing required. |
| 7 (RESET) | Active-Low Reset Output | Push-pull output asserting low for 200 ms on VCC drop or MR activation; remains low until VCC > 3.15 V for ≥200 ms. |
| 8 (RESET) | Active-High Reset Output | Inverted complement of Pin 7; provides simultaneous active-high reset signal for mixed-logic or bidirectional microprocessor interfaces. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual reset polarity outputs | Simultaneous RESET (active low) and RESET (active high) eliminate need for external inverters in systems requiring both logic levels. |
| 1.25 V power-fail comparator | Enables predictive shutdown by monitoring auxiliary rails or battery voltage via PFI/PFO-no additional ICs required. |
| Valid reset down to 1 V VCC | Ensures microprocessor remains held in reset during deep brownout or battery depletion, preventing undefined execution states. |
| Internal MR pull-up (70 µA) | Allows direct connection of mechanical reset switches without external resistors, simplifying BOM and layout. |
| 3.08 V reset threshold | Optimized for 3.3 V systems with margin against ripple and tolerance drift, reducing false resets in noisy industrial environments. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controller Monitoring | Portable Medical Instrument Power Management |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX708TESA+ | 3.08 V reset threshold, 200 ms timeout, dual RESET/RESET outputs, same SOIC-8 package; higher quiescent current (25 µA min vs. 100 µA typ for ADM708T). | Designed for commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C) only; not rated for industrial −40°C to +85°C operation. | Select MAX708TESA+ only for cost-sensitive commercial designs where extended temperature is unnecessary. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3 V reset threshold (±0.5%), 200 ms delay, single active-low reset output; no active-high output or PFI/PFO comparator. | Lacks power-fail warning capability and dual-polarity reset-requires external circuitry to replicate ADM708TARZ-REEL's PFO-driven shutdown sequencing. | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR when only basic 3.3 V supervision is needed and PFI functionality is omitted from system architecture. |
Compared with MAX708TESA+, ADM708TARZ-REEL offers guaranteed industrial temperature support and lower typical supply current; compared with TPS3808G33DBVR, it delivers integrated power-fail warning and dual-reset polarity-reducing component count and PCB area in safety-critical embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for ADM708TARZ-REEL?
The ADM708TARZ-REEL has a nominal reset threshold of 3.08 V, with a specified range of 3.00 V to 3.15 V over temperature and supply variation. This value is factory-trimmed and applies to both RESET and RESET outputs, ensuring precise supervision of 3.3 V power rails without external calibration. The threshold is referenced to an internal bandgap and remains stable across the −40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range.
Does ADM708TARZ-REEL include a watchdog timer function?
No, ADM708TARZ-REEL does not include a watchdog timer. Unlike the ADM706x family, the ADM708x series omits the WDI and WDO pins entirely-evident in its pinout (Pin 6 = NC) and functional block diagram. Its role is strictly power-supply monitoring and reset generation. For watchdog capability, engineers must select an ADM706T variant or add a discrete timer circuit.
How does the PFI/PFO feature work in ADM708TARZ-REEL?
The PFI input connects to the noninverting terminal of an internal 1.25 V comparator; when PFI voltage falls below 1.25 V, PFO asserts low. In ADM708TARZ-REEL, PFI accepts a scaled version of a secondary supply (e.g., battery or analog rail) via resistor divider. PFO can drive an interrupt or be wired to MR to trigger system reset-enabling predictive shutdown before main supply collapse, with no external components required beyond the divider.
Can ADM708TARZ-REEL operate with VCC below 3.08 V and still assert RESET?
Yes-ADM708TARZ-REEL guarantees valid RESET assertion down to VCC = 1 V. As VCC drops below the 3.08 V threshold, RESET goes low and RESET goes high; both outputs remain actively driven until VCC falls below ~1 V, where internal circuitry loses regulation. This ensures the microprocessor stays held in reset throughout deep brownout, eliminating race conditions during power recovery.
What package type and lead finish does ADM708TARZ-REEL use?
ADM708TARZ-REEL uses an 8-lead narrow SOIC (R-8) package per JEDEC MS-012-AA, with lead pitch of 1.27 mm and gull-wing leads. The "Z" suffix indicates lead-free (Pb-free) and RoHS-compliant termination, and "-REEL" denotes tape-and-reel packaging for automated SMT assembly. Dimensions are 5.00 mm × 4.00 mm × 1.50 mm (L × W × H).
