Product details
Overview
ADM8698ARN from Analog Devices is a microprocessor supervisory circuit designed for 5 V power supply monitoring in embedded systems. It provides guaranteed reset assertion down to VCC = 1 V, precision 4.65 V voltage threshold with 40 mV hysteresis, 140–280 ms reset active time, and 70 µA supply current. It is used in industrial controllers and automotive ECUs where reliable power-on reset and brown-out protection are critical.
For engineers reviewing the ADM8698ARN datasheet, ADM8698ARN pinout, ADM8698ARN application, or ADM8698ARN equivalent, key selection considerations include its guaranteed reset functionality at ultra-low VCC, fixed 4.65 V threshold, watchdog-free architecture (vs. ADM8699), SOIC-8 package compatibility, and industrial temperature range support.
Technical Context
The ADM8698ARN implements a precision bandgap-based voltage detector with internal hysteresis to avoid false triggering during VCC transients. Its reset generator uses an internal monostable to ensure minimum 140 ms RESET pulse width after power-up or brown-out recovery.
No watchdog logic is present - unlike the ADM8699, the ADM8698ARN lacks WDI input, WDO output, and transition detection circuitry. All timing and threshold behavior is strictly tied to VCC monitoring and internal RC timing elements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Operating Range | 3.0 V to 5.5 V - supports nominal 5 V systems with ±10% tolerance and brown-out detection down to 3 V. |
| Reset Threshold | 4.65 V (typ), ±100 mV - set to accommodate 5% VCC variation while ensuring robust power-fail detection. |
| Reset Hysteresis | 40 mV - prevents oscillation during slow or noisy VCC transitions near threshold. |
| Reset Active Time | 140–280 ms - guarantees sufficient hold time for microprocessor initialization and peripheral stabilization. |
| Supply Current | 70 µA (typ) - enables low-power operation in battery-backed or energy-sensitive applications. |
| Min VCC for RESET | 1 V - ensures RESET remains asserted through deep undervoltage, preventing unstable processor operation. |
| RESET Output Type | Active-low open-drain - compatible with standard µP reset inputs requiring pull-up; sinks 3.2 mA at 4.4 V. |
Pinout & Package
ADM8698ARN is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (R-8) package per Analog Devices' ordering guide. Pin 1 is marked, and the device has no exposed thermal pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VCC) | Power Supply Input | Primary +5 V supply connection; internally powers all monitoring and reset logic. |
| 2 (GND) | Ground Reference | 0 V reference for voltage detection, reset timing, and output driver circuits. |
| 3 (RESET) | Active-Low Reset Output | Open-drain output asserted low during power-up, power-down, or brown-out; requires external pull-up. |
| 4 (NC) | No Connect | Unused pin; must be left unconnected - not internally bonded or functional. |
| 5 (NC) | No Connect | Unused pin; electrically isolated - no internal connection or function. |
| 6 (NC) | No Connect | Unused pin; no internal bond wire or circuit node attached. |
| 7 (GND) | Ground Reference | Second ground pin for improved noise immunity and lower ground impedance in high-noise environments. |
| 8 (VCC) | Power Supply Input | Dual VCC pin for enhanced power delivery integrity and reduced IR drop across package leads. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guaranteed RESET at VCC = 1 V | Ensures microprocessor remains held in reset even during severe undervoltage, eliminating erratic boot behavior. |
| Precision 4.65 V Threshold | Matches standard 5 V ±5% supply tolerance, eliminating need for external resistor dividers or calibration. |
| 40 mV Internal Hysteresis | Prevents chatter on RESET during marginal VCC conditions without requiring external hysteresis components. |
| 140–280 ms Reset Pulse Width | Meets typical microprocessor minimum reset duration requirements without external timing capacitors. |
| 70 µA Quiescent Current | Reduces system standby power consumption - critical for battery-operated or always-on embedded devices. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX698CSA+ | 4.63 V reset threshold, 20 µA supply current, no guaranteed reset below 2.5 V. | Lacks ultra-low-VCC reset guarantee; suitable only where brown-out depth is shallow. | Select when lowest quiescent current is prioritized over deep undervoltage robustness. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3 V fixed threshold, adjustable delay, 1.5 µA IQ, but requires external capacitor for delay setting. | Designed for 3.3 V systems; incompatible with 5 V-only reset logic without level-shifting. | Choose only if migrating to 3.3 V core logic and programmable delay is required. |
Compared with MAX698CSA+ and TPS3808G33DBVR, the ADM8698ARN uniquely delivers guaranteed reset assertion at VCC = 1 V in a fixed 5 V system, eliminating design margin uncertainty in harsh power environments - a capability neither alternative provides.

FAQ
What is the reset voltage threshold of the ADM8698ARN?
The ADM8698ARN features a precision 4.65 V reset voltage threshold with ±100 mV tolerance, optimized for nominal 5 V supplies with ±5% variation. This threshold is internally trimmed and includes 40 mV hysteresis to prevent oscillation during marginal VCC conditions. The ADM8698ARN does not support adjustable thresholds or external resistor programming.
Does the ADM8698ARN include a watchdog timer?
No, the ADM8698ARN does not include a watchdog timer. It is the non-watchdog variant of the ADM8698/ADM8699 family. Watchdog functionality (WDI input and WDO output) is exclusive to the ADM8699 series. The ADM8698ARN provides only power supply monitoring and reset generation - no transition detection or timeout logic is implemented.
What is the minimum VCC level at which ADM8698ARN guarantees RESET assertion?
The ADM8698ARN guarantees RESET output remains asserted (logic low) down to VCC = 1 V, as confirmed in the datasheet's electrical specifications table under "RESET Output Voltage (VCC = 1 V)". This ensures the microprocessor stays reliably held in reset during deep undervoltage events, such as cold-crank in automotive applications or battery depletion in portable systems.
What package type is used for the ADM8698ARN?
The ADM8698ARN is supplied in an 8-pin small-outline integrated circuit (SOIC) package, designated R-8 in Analog Devices' ordering guide. It measures 4.9 mm × 3.9 mm with 1.27 mm lead pitch and features two VCC pins (pins 1 and 8) and two GND pins (pins 2 and 7) for improved power integrity and noise rejection.
Can ADM8698ARN drive a microprocessor reset pin directly?
Yes, the ADM8698ARN's RESET output is an open-drain, active-low signal capable of sinking 3.2 mA at VCC = 4.4 V, which meets standard microprocessor reset input requirements. An external pull-up resistor (typically 4.7 kΩ to VCC) is required. The ADM8698ARN does not provide an active-high RESET output - that function is only available on 16-lead SOIC variants (e.g., ADM8698ARW) or the ADM8699 series.
