Product details
Overview
DS1233AZ-10/T&R from Maxim Integrated is a 3.3V precision voltage-monitoring microprocessor reset supervisor IC with pushbutton debounce, 2.80–2.97V VCC trip point (10% tolerance), 350ms reset timeout, and internal 5kΩ pull-up resistor. It ensures reliable power-on reset and manual reset in embedded microcontroller systems.
For engineers reviewing the DS1233AZ-10/T&R datasheet, DS1233AZ-10/T&R pinout, DS1233AZ-10/T&R application, or DS1233AZ-10/T&R equivalent, key selection factors include VCC trip accuracy, reset pulse duration, pushbutton interface behavior, operating temperature range, and TO-92/SOT-223 package compatibility.
Technical Context
The DS1233AZ-10/T&R integrates a precision temperature-compensated voltage reference and comparator to monitor 3.3V supply rails, asserting RESET when VCC falls below 2.80V and holding it active for 350ms after recovery. Its internal debouncing logic detects pushbutton release-not press-and generates a clean 350ms reset pulse.
It operates across -40°C to +85°C, draws only 50μA quiescent current, and features a 100pF–0.01μF external capacitor requirement on the RST pin for proper pushbutton operation. The device uses a single-supply architecture with no external bias components needed.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Trip Point | 2.80–2.97V (10% tolerance at 3.3V); ensures reset activation before microprocessor brownout |
| Reset Timeout | 250–450ms (typ. 350ms); guarantees stable power and processor initialization before release |
| Supply Current | 50μA max; enables low-power always-on monitoring in battery-backed systems |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +85°C; supports industrial-grade embedded deployment without derating |
| Output Drive | 8mA sink at 0.4V; directly drives standard CMOS/TTL reset inputs without buffer |
| Internal Pull-Up | 3.75–6.25kΩ; eliminates external resistor for basic pushbutton interface |
| Pushbutton Detect | 0.8–2.0V threshold; rejects noise while reliably detecting switch closure |
Pinout & Package
DS1233AZ-10/T&R is supplied in TO-92 package (3-pin, through-hole) per package code Q3+1 (Maxim document 21-0248). Pin 1 = GROUND, Pin 2 = RESET (open-drain output), Pin 3 = VCC.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | GROUND | Reference node for voltage sensing and output stage; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| Pin 2 | RESET | Open-drain active-low reset output; requires external pull-up for high state; also serves as pushbutton sense input |
| Pin 3 | VCC | Power supply input (1.2–5.5V); powers internal reference, comparator, and timer circuits |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automatic Power-Fail Reset | Detects VCC drop below 2.80V and asserts RESET within 100ns-prevents erratic MCU execution during brownout |
| Pushbutton Debounce Logic | Internally filters mechanical switch bounce and generates precise 350ms reset pulse on button release-not press |
| Temperature-Compensated Reference | Ensures ±1% trip point stability over -40°C to +85°C-no calibration required across operating range |
| No External Components Required | Integrates reference, comparator, timer, and 5kΩ pull-up-replaces 5+ discrete parts in basic reset circuits |
| Low Quiescent Current | 50μA typical draw enables use in always-on supervisory roles without impacting system power budget |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controller | Medical Diagnostic Handheld |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Microcontroller-based PLC I/O module subjected to intermittent 24V AC/DC converter ripple and field wiring transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary power-on and brownout reset supervisor; provides 350ms guaranteed hold time after VCC recovery to prevent firmware lockup.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-function supervisor: monitors 3.3V LDO output and accepts tactile button press for user-initiated safe reboot. Use Value: Internal debounce removes need for firmware polling or external Schmitt trigger-reduces BOM count and improves UI responsiveness. |
| Smart Energy Meter | Automotive Body Control Module |
Use Scenario: ANSI C12.20-compliant meter exposed to wide ambient temperature swings and utility grid sags. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision 3.3V supply monitor with ±1% trip stability over temperature; holds RESET until power stabilizes post-sag. Use Value: Meets IEC 62053-21 reset timing requirements without external trimming-reduces test calibration steps in production. | Use Scenario: BCM controlling door locks, lighting, and window motors powered by vehicle battery with load-dump transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Resets microcontroller during battery undervoltage events (e.g., cold-cranking) and supports service technician reset via dashboard button. Use Value: Single-device solution replaces discrete reset IC + debounce RC network-saves PCB area in space-constrained automotive modules. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326–33D2T | Fixed 3.08V trip point; 200ms reset timeout; no pushbutton interface; SOT-23-3 package | Designed for simpler power-only monitoring where manual reset is handled separately | Select when pushbutton debounce is unnecessary and tighter trip accuracy (±1.5%) is required |
| TPS3808G12DBVR | Adjustable trip via external resistor divider; 200ms–10s timeout; higher ICC (12μA typ); SOT-23-6 package | Supports custom VCC thresholds and longer reset durations but requires two external resistors | Select when system requires non-standard trip voltage or programmable reset timing beyond 350ms |
Compared with MAX6326–33D2T and TPS3808G12DBVR, DS1233AZ-10/T&R uniquely combines fixed 3.3V 10%-tolerance monitoring, integrated pushbutton debounce, and TO-92 compatibility-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained designs needing both power and manual reset in one chip.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC trip voltage range for DS1233AZ-10/T&R?
The DS1233AZ-10/T&R has a guaranteed VCC trip point of 2.80V to 2.97V at 25°C, corresponding to 10% tolerance around a nominal 3.3V supply. This range is maintained across the full -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range due to its internal temperature-compensated voltage reference, ensuring consistent brownout detection without external calibration.
Does DS1233AZ-10/T&R require an external capacitor on the RESET pin?
Yes, DS1233AZ-10/T&R requires a capacitor between 100pF and 0.01μF connected from the RESET pin to ground for proper pushbutton debounce operation. This capacitor filters switch bounce and enables the internal timer to generate a clean 350ms reset pulse upon button release. Without it, the device may produce multiple or unstable reset pulses.
Can DS1233AZ-10/T&R be used with a 5V supply?
No, DS1233AZ-10/T&R is specified for 3.3V systems only. Its VCC trip point is fixed at 2.80–2.97V, optimized for 3.3V rails. For 5V applications, use DS1233-10 (trip ~4.25–4.49V) or DS1233D-10. Applying 5V to DS1233AZ-10/T&R exceeds its absolute maximum VCC rating of 5.5V but risks incorrect trip behavior and violates its 10% tolerance specification at 3.3V.
What is the function of Pin 2 (RESET) on DS1233AZ-10/T&R?
Pin 2 on DS1233AZ-10/T&R is an open-drain active-low RESET output that serves dual functions: (1) it asserts a low signal during power failure or reset initiation, and (2) it acts as the input node for external pushbutton detection. When used with a pushbutton, the same pin senses switch closure and releases-triggering internal debounce and generating a precise 350ms reset pulse upon release.
Is DS1233AZ-10/T&R pin-compatible with other DS1233A variants?
Yes, all DS1233A variants-including DS1233AZ-10/T&R, DS1233A-15, and DS1233A-5-share identical TO-92 pinout (Pin 1 = GND, Pin 2 = RST, Pin 3 = VCC) and SOT-223 pinout (Pin 1 = GND, Pin 2 = RST, Pin 3 = VCC, Pin 4 = GND). The only differences are VCC trip point and pushbutton detect thresholds-enabling direct substitution when trip voltage matches system requirements.
