Product details
Overview
AZ809ANSTR-E1 from BCD Semiconductor Manufacturing Limited is a 3-pin precision microprocessor reset supervisor IC with active-low push-pull RESET output, fixed 2.93V reset threshold, 240ms typical reset timeout, and guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1.0V - used for power-up/brownout monitoring in 3.3V embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the AZ809ANSTR-E1 datasheet, AZ809ANSTR-E1 pinout, AZ809ANSTR-E1 application, or AZ809ANSTR-E1 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SOT-23 pin mapping, real-world timing behavior, transient immunity data, and validated alternatives for industrial and battery-powered system design.
Technical Context
The AZ809ANSTR-E1 implements a precision voltage comparator with internal reference and a monostable timer to generate a minimum 140ms (typical 240ms) active-low reset pulse after VCC recovers above 2.93V. Its reset logic remains functional at VCC as low as 1.0V, enabling reliable supervision during deep brownouts.
It features fast transient immunity optimized for negative-going VCC glitches - rejecting transients ≤20µs duration when undershoot is ≤100mV below threshold - and draws only 6µA typical supply current at 3.3V, supporting ultra-low-power portable applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.93V ±40mV (2.78–3.08V over -40°C to +105°C); ensures stable reset assertion for 3.3V systems under temperature variation. |
| Reset Timeout | 240ms typical (140ms min); guarantees sufficient processor initialization time after power recovery. |
| Supply Current | 6µA typical at 3.3V/25°C; enables multi-year battery life in always-on supervisory circuits. |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2V to 5.5V (-40°C to +105°C); supports valid reset signaling even during severe undervoltage conditions. |
| Output Type | Push-pull active-low; eliminates need for external pull-up resistor and ensures defined logic state without external components. |
| Transient Immunity | Rejects 100mV VCC undershoots lasting ≤20µs; prevents false resets from switching noise or load transients. |
Pinout & Package
The AZ809ANSTR-E1 is housed in a standard SOT-23-3 package (2.30 × 2.50 × 1.20 mm), optimized for high-density PCB layouts and reflow compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for internal comparator and timer; must be connected directly to system ground plane for noise immunity. |
| 2 | RESET | Active-low push-pull output; sinks ≥1.2mA at VCC=2.93V and drives microprocessor /RESET input directly. |
| 3 | VCC | Power supply input; accepts 1.2–5.5V; internal circuitry remains functional down to 1.0V for fail-safe reset assertion. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision 2.93V threshold | ±40mV tolerance over full temperature range ensures consistent reset point across 3.3V system voltage drift. |
| 240ms reset timeout | Guaranteed minimum 140ms pulse width ensures reliable CPU/MCU boot sequence completion before release. |
| Valid reset down to VCC = 1.0V | Enables deterministic reset assertion during deep brownout, preventing undefined processor states. |
| Push-pull output | Eliminates external pull-up resistor, reduces BOM count, and avoids floating output during power ramp-down. |
| Fast transient rejection | Immune to ≤20µs, 100mV VCC undershoots - critical for noisy DC-DC converter outputs and motor-driven systems. |
Applications
| Microprocessor Power-Up Sequencing | Battery-Powered IoT Sensors |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD3-T | 2.93V threshold, 240ms timeout, but 10µA typical ICC at 3.3V; SOT-23-3, RoHS-compliant. | Higher quiescent current reduces battery lifetime in always-on sensors; identical timing and accuracy. | Select when MAX brand qualification is required and 4µA extra supply current is acceptable. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 2.93V threshold, adjustable timeout (via capacitor), 1.6µA typical ICC; SOT-23-6, requires external capacitor. | Lower current but adds BOM complexity and board space; timeout not fixed - requires layout validation. | Select when ultra-low power dominates and programmable reset duration justifies added design effort. |
Compared with MAX809TRD3-T and TPS3808G33DBVR, the AZ809ANSTR-E1 delivers optimal balance of ultra-low ICC (6µA), fixed robust timing (240ms), zero external components, and full-temperature threshold stability - making it ideal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained, and battery-critical designs where simplicity and predictability are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for AZ809ANSTR-E1?
The AZ809ANSTR-E1 has a nominal reset threshold of 2.93V, with guaranteed range of 2.78V to 3.08V across -40°C to +105°C ambient temperature. This value is factory-trimmed and specified in the Electrical Characteristics table (page 5 of datasheet), confirming its suitability for 3.3V system supervision with margin against rail tolerance.
Does AZ809ANSTR-E1 require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
No. The AZ809ANSTR-E1 features a push-pull output stage that actively drives both HIGH and LOW states, eliminating the need for an external pull-up resistor. The RESET pin sources current when deasserted and sinks ≥1.2mA when asserted, ensuring direct interface with CMOS microprocessor /RESET inputs without additional components.
Can AZ809ANSTR-E1 operate reliably below 1.2V VCC?
Yes - the device guarantees valid RESET output down to VCC = 1.0V (per Recommended Operating Conditions, page 5). Below 1.0V, the output becomes high-impedance; however, for operation between 1.0V and 1.2V, the datasheet confirms functional reset assertion and timing integrity, enabling use in deep brownout detection scenarios.
How does AZ809ANSTR-E1 handle fast voltage transients on the VCC line?
The AZ809ANSTR-E1 rejects fast negative-going VCC transients via internal filtering and comparator hysteresis. As shown in Figure 9 of the datasheet, it ignores 100mV undershoots lasting ≤20µs - a specification validated across temperature and process corners - making it robust against switching regulator noise and load-dump-induced dips without requiring additional RC filtering.
