Product details
Overview
ADM802LARNZ from Analog Devices is a precision microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-low reset, 4.65 V reset threshold, 200 ms reset timeout, 1.6 s watchdog timer, and automatic battery switchover for CMOS RAM backup in embedded systems requiring reliable power monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the ADM802LARNZ datasheet, ADM802LARNZ pinout, ADM802LARNZ application, or ADM802LARNZ equivalent, this page delivers verified functional specifications, real-world timing behavior, battery switchover hysteresis, PFI comparator accuracy, and direct substitution guidance for industrial control and instrumentation designs.
Technical Context
The ADM802LARNZ integrates four core functions: a precision 4.65 V supply monitor with 40 mV hysteresis, a 1.6 s watchdog transition detector that resets on missing WDI toggles, a 1.25 V reference-based power fail comparator (PFI/PFO) with ±2% accuracy, and bidirectional PMOS battery switchover with 20 mV turn-on/off thresholds and 40 mV hysteresis.
It operates across VCC = 1.0 V to 5.5 V, asserts RESET down to 1 V VCC, draws only 100 µA quiescent current, and supports battery backup mode with 0.05 µA standby current - all implemented in an 8-lead SOIC package with pin-compatible footprint to legacy MAX802L.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.65 V nominal; guaranteed 4.55–4.70 V at 25°C - ensures deterministic reset initiation during 5 V supply brownout. |
| Reset Timeout | 200 ms typical; 140–280 ms range - provides sufficient stabilization time for microprocessors after power recovery. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6 s nominal; 1.0–2.25 s range - enables robust software execution monitoring without false triggers from transient delays. |
| PFI Threshold Accuracy | ±2% (1.225–1.275 V) - allows precise early-warning power-fail detection using external resistor dividers. |
| Battery Switchover Hysteresis | 40 mV - prevents oscillation during VCC/VBATT crossover near switchover point. |
| Quiescent Current | 100 µA max at VCC = 4.75–5.5 V - minimizes system power overhead in always-on monitoring applications. |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.0 V to 5.5 V - guarantees RESET assertion integrity even during deep brownout or partial power loss. |
Pinout & Package
ADM802LARNZ is housed in an 8-lead SOIC (SO-8) package with standard 1.27 mm pitch, 5.00 mm × 4.00 mm body, and gull-wing leads - compatible with automated PCB assembly and thermal performance up to 110°C/W θJA.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Main power supply input | +5 V nominal supply; powers internal circuits and sources VOUT when above reset threshold. |
| VBATT | Backup battery input | Connects to 3 V lithium or capacitor backup; automatically engages when VCC drops 20 mV below VBATT. |
| VOUT | Switched output rail | Delivers VCC or VBATT (whichever higher) to RAM or low-power logic; supports ≥100 mA load in normal mode. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for all analog and digital functions; required for accurate voltage monitoring and comparator operation. |
| PFI | Power fail comparator input | Accepts divided-down supply voltage; triggers PFO low when input falls below 1.25 V reference. |
| PFO | Power fail output | Active-low open-drain signal used to interrupt µP or initiate orderly shutdown before main supply collapse. |
| RESET | Reset output | Active-low push-pull output asserted during VCC brownout, watchdog timeout, or power-up; holds low ≥200 ms. |
| WDI | Watchdog input | Three-level input (high/low/floating); resets watchdog timer on each transition; disables timer if left floating. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guaranteed reset assertion down to 1 V VCC | Ensures microprocessor remains held in reset during deep brownout, preventing undefined state or corruption. |
| ±2% PFI comparator accuracy | Enables reliable early power-fail warning with minimal external component tolerance dependency. |
| 40 mV battery switchover hysteresis | Eliminates chatter during VCC recovery near VBATT level, ensuring clean RAM power handover. |
| 100 µA max quiescent current | Reduces standby power draw in battery-backed systems, extending operational lifetime of backup sources. |
| Pin-compatible upgrade path from MAX802L | Allows drop-in replacement in existing designs without layout or firmware changes. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX802LCSA+ | Same 4.65 V reset threshold, 200 ms timeout, and SO-8 package; but higher 120 µA quiescent current and no guaranteed 1 V reset assertion. | Lacks 1 V reset guarantee and ±2% PFI accuracy; suitable only where brownout depth is shallow and PFI precision is noncritical. | Select MAX802LCSA+ only if legacy MAXIM compatibility is mandatory and 1 V operation is not required. |
| TPS3808G16DBVR | Adjustable reset threshold (via external resistor), 200 ms timeout, 1.8–6.0 V VCC range; but no integrated battery switchover or PFI/PFO comparator. | Requires external MOSFET and divider for battery backup; lacks power-fail warning capability - adds BOM cost and board space. | Choose TPS3808G16DBVR only when adjustable reset voltage is needed and battery switchover is implemented separately. |
Compared with ADM802LARNZ, MAX802LCSA+ offers pin compatibility but sacrifices brownout robustness and PFI precision, while TPS3808G16DBVR trades integration for flexibility - making ADM802LARNZ optimal for compact, battery-backed 5 V systems needing guaranteed 1 V reset and ±2% power-fail detection.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed reset voltage threshold range for ADM802LARNZ?
The ADM802LARNZ has a guaranteed reset voltage threshold of 4.55 V to 4.70 V at 25°C, with 4.65 V as the nominal value. This specification ensures consistent brownout detection across temperature and process variations, and is distinct from the 4.40 V threshold used in the ADM802M variant. The 40 mV hysteresis prevents chatter during supply recovery.
Does ADM802LARNZ support operation below 2.0 V VCC?
Yes, ADM802LARNZ guarantees RESET assertion down to 1.0 V VCC, enabling reliable microprocessor hold during deep brownout conditions. Its internal circuitry remains functional and the RESET output stays low until VCC rises above the 4.65 V threshold and remains stable for 200 ms. This capability is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and functional specifications sections of the official Analog Devices datasheet for ADM802LARNZ.
How does the battery switchover function work in ADM802LARNZ?
The ADM802LARNZ uses an internal PMOS switch to connect VCC to VOUT during normal operation. When VCC falls 20 mV below VBATT, it automatically switches VOUT to VBATT to maintain power to attached RAM. On power-up, VOUT reverts to VCC once VCC exceeds VBATT by 20 mV. The 40 mV hysteresis prevents oscillation, and standby current in battery mode is as low as 0.05 µA - all verified in the ADM802LARNZ datasheet's "Battery Switchover Section".
What is the accuracy of the PFI power fail comparator in ADM802LARNZ?
The PFI comparator in ADM802LARNZ has a guaranteed accuracy of ±2%, with a nominal 1.25 V internal reference and trip range of 1.225 V to 1.275 V. This enables precise early-warning power-fail detection using external resistive dividers, and is tighter than the ±2.5% spec of the ADM690A/ADM692A series. The value is explicitly stated in the "ADM802L/M" row of the "PFI Input Threshold" table in the ADM802LARNZ datasheet.
Can ADM802LARNZ replace MAX802L in existing designs?
Yes, ADM802LARNZ is a pin-compatible and functionally equivalent upgrade for MAX802L, offering identical SO-8 footprint, 4.65 V reset threshold, 200 ms timeout, and battery switchover functionality. It improves upon MAX802L with guaranteed 1 V reset assertion, ±2% PFI accuracy, and lower 100 µA max quiescent current. Analog Devices explicitly states this compatibility in the "GENERAL DESCRIPTION" section of the ADM802LARNZ datasheet.
