Product details
Overview
ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 from Analog Devices is a low-voltage supervisory circuit with integrated watchdog timer in a 4-lead SC70 package, designed to monitor VCC supply integrity and microprocessor code execution. It features a 2.63 V reset threshold, 140 ms reset timeout, 1.6 s watchdog timeout, push-pull active-low RESET output, and guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1 V-used in portable controllers and embedded systems requiring reliable power-on reset and fail-safe recovery.
For engineers reviewing the ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 datasheet, ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 pinout, ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 application, or ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy (±13 mV at 2.63 V), watchdog timeout stability over temperature, push-pull drive capability up to 1.2 mA at 2.7 V, and glitch-immune operation during fast VCC transients.
Technical Context
The ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference for reset threshold detection with 40 ppm/°C temperature coefficient and 2 × VTH hysteresis. Its internal watchdog timer clears on any WDI logic transition (≥50 ns pulse width) and asserts RESET if no toggle occurs within 1.6 s.
RESET assertion occurs when VCC falls below 2.63 V or WDI remains static beyond 1.6 s; deassertion follows a fixed 140 ms timeout after VCC rises above threshold. The push-pull output ensures valid logic levels (VOL ≤ 0.3 V, VOH ≥ 0.8 × VCC) across 1 V to 5.5 V VCC range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.63 V ±13 mV - sets precise undervoltage detection point for 2.7 V–3.3 V supply rails |
| Reset Timeout | 140 ms min - ensures stable power-up delay before releasing microprocessor from reset |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6 s typ - provides sufficient margin for firmware service intervals while detecting lockups |
| Supply Current | 5 µA typ at 3.6 V - enables battery-powered operation for >10 years in always-on monitoring |
| RESET Output Type | Push-pull active-low - drives high/low without external pull-up, supports direct MCU RESET input |
| VCC Operating Range | 1 V to 5.5 V - guarantees RESET validity during brownout down to 1 V, critical for low-power wake-up |
| Temp Range | −40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and automotive cabin environments |
Pinout & Package
ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 is housed in a 4-lead SC70 (KS-4) package measuring 2.20 mm × 1.35 mm × 0.9 mm, optimized for space-constrained portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 GND | Ground Reference | Return path for internal reference and RESET driver; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 2 RESET | Active-Low Reset Output | Push-pull output asserted low during VCC < 2.63 V or WDI timeout; drives MCU RESET pin directly |
| 3 WDI | Watchdog Input | Edge-sensitive input; toggling resets internal 1.6 s timer; floating disables watchdog function |
| 4 VCC | Monitored Supply Input | Primary power rail under supervision; also powers internal circuitry; requires local 0.1 µF bypass capacitor |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision Reset Threshold | 2.63 V with ±13 mV tolerance and 40 ppm/°C drift - eliminates need for external trimming in 2.7 V systems |
| Glitch-Immune Detection | Rejects transients <100 mV/8 µs (at 2.63 V threshold) - prevents spurious resets during switching noise |
| Low-Power Operation | 5 µA typical supply current - extends battery life in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors and wearables |
| Valid RESET Below 1 V | Guaranteed VOL ≤ 0.3 V and VOH ≥ 0.8 × VCC down to VCC = 1 V - ensures deterministic reset release during deep brownout |
| WDI Edge Sensitivity | Detects 50 ns pulses - allows minimal firmware overhead for watchdog strobing in real-time applications |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controllers | Portable Medical Monitors |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Microcontroller-based programmable logic controller operating from 3.3 V rail in factory automation cabinets subject to voltage sags and EMI. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 3.3 V supply and monitors firmware execution via WDI; asserts RESET on undervoltage or software hang. Use Value: Prevents corrupted I/O state during brownout by holding MCU in reset until 3.3 V stabilizes for 140 ms, and recovers from infinite loops via 1.6 s watchdog timeout. | Use Scenario: Battery-powered ECG recorder with ARM Cortex-M0+ MCU, requiring ultra-low quiescent current and fail-safe boot sequence. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides power-on reset and runtime watchdog supervision; push-pull RESET eliminates need for external pull-up resistor. Use Value: 5 µA supply current extends lithium coin-cell life beyond 5 years; 2.63 V threshold matches LDO output, ensuring reset before brownout-induced data corruption. |
| Smart Energy Meters | Automotive Body Control Modules |
Use Scenario: ANSI C12.22-compliant electricity meter with dual-supply MCU (3.3 V core, 5 V interface) exposed to grid fluctuations. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 3.3 V core rail; uses WDI to verify metering firmware heartbeat; asserts RESET on sustained supply dip or code stall. Use Value: 140 ms reset timeout accommodates slow LDO startup; 2.63 V threshold avoids false triggers during 100-ms dips to 2.8 V. | Use Scenario: Door module MCU powered from vehicle battery (9–16 V) via 3.3 V LDO, operating in −40°C to +85°C ambient. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 3.3 V rail and validates firmware execution; push-pull output interfaces directly with automotive-grade MCU RESET pin. Use Value: −40°C to +85°C qualification ensures reliability in under-hood thermal cycling; 40 ppm/°C threshold drift maintains accuracy across temperature extremes. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar supervisory circuit applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326UT26D3+ | 2.63 V reset threshold, 140 ms timeout, open-drain RESET, no watchdog timer | Lacks watchdog functionality; requires external timer or MCU-based supervision | Select when watchdog is unnecessary and open-drain output is preferred for wired-OR reset buses |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3 V reset threshold, 200 ms timeout, no watchdog, 1.6 µA quiescent current | Higher reset threshold unsuitable for 2.7 V systems; no WDI interface | Choose for ultra-low-power 3.3 V-only applications where watchdog is handled separately in firmware |
Compared with MAX6326UT26D3+ and TPS3808G33DBVR, the ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 uniquely integrates both precision 2.63 V supervision and hardware watchdog in one SC70 package, eliminating external timing components and reducing BOM count for compact embedded controllers.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7?
The ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 has a nominal reset threshold of 2.63 V, with a guaranteed range of 2.55 V to 2.70 V at +25°C and ±13 mV tolerance. This value is laser-trimmed during production and exhibits 40 ppm/°C temperature coefficient, making it suitable for precise 2.7 V supply monitoring in industrial and portable systems.
Does the ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
No, the ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 does not require an external pull-up resistor because it features a push-pull active-low RESET output. The internal driver actively pulls RESET low during assertion and drives it high (to ≥0.8 × VCC) during deassertion across its full 1 V to 5.5 V VCC range, enabling direct connection to most microcontroller RESET inputs.
How is the watchdog timer disabled on the ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7?
The watchdog timer on the ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 is disabled by leaving the WDI pin unconnected (floating). Internal circuitry detects the floating state and disconnects the watchdog timer from the RESET generation path, preventing unintended resets. Alternatively, tri-stating the WDI driver achieves the same effect without requiring physical disconnection.
What is the minimum VCC voltage at which the ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 guarantees valid RESET output levels?
The ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 guarantees valid RESET output levels down to VCC = 1 V: VOL ≤ 0.3 V (with 50 µA sink) and VOH ≥ 0.8 × VCC (with 500 µA source). This ensures deterministic reset behavior during deep brownout conditions, a critical feature for battery-backed or energy-harvesting systems where supply may decay slowly.
Can the ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 be used with a 1.8 V supply rail?
Yes, the ADM8616RCYAKSZ-RL7 supports VCC from 1 V to 5.5 V, so it operates correctly with a 1.8 V supply. However, its 2.63 V reset threshold means it will assert RESET continuously on a 1.8 V rail. It is intended for supervision of higher rails (e.g., 2.7 V, 3.3 V) where 2.63 V provides appropriate undervoltage margin-not for 1.8 V rail monitoring.
