Product details
Overview
DS1233DZ-15+ from Maxim Integrated (now Analog Devices) is a precision 5V microprocessor supervisory circuit with 15% VCC trip point, 350 ms reset timeout, and internal 5 kΩ pull-up resistor. It monitors power supply integrity, asserts active-low RESET during out-of-tolerance conditions, and supports Motorola 68XXX and HC16 microprocessors in embedded control systems.
For engineers reviewing the DS1233DZ-15+ datasheet, DS1233DZ-15+ pinout, DS1233DZ-15+ application, or DS1233DZ-15+ equivalent, key selection criteria include VCC trip accuracy (4.0–4.24 V), guaranteed reset pulse width (250–450 ms), operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), SOT-223 package compatibility, and internal pull-up integration eliminating external components.
Technical Context
The DS1233DZ-15+ implements a precision temperature-compensated voltage reference and comparator to detect VCC drop below 4.125 V (typical), triggering an active-low RESET signal. Its internal power-fail detection logic ensures deterministic assertion before brownout.
After VCC recovery, the device holds RESET active for 350 ms (typical) to allow system stabilization-guaranteed between 250 ms and 450 ms per AC specs. The integrated 5 kΩ pull-up resistor enables direct connection to microprocessor reset inputs without external biasing.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| VCC Trip Point | 4.0–4.24 V (15% tolerance); ensures reliable reset assertion before 5V rail falls below 4.0 V |
| Reset Active Time | 250–450 ms; guarantees sufficient hold time for microprocessor power-up sequencing |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial-grade embedded control environments |
| Internal Pull-Up | 3.75–6.25 kΩ; eliminates need for external resistor on RESET line |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.2–5.5 V; supports operation across wide input margin including degraded VCC |
| Output Low Voltage | ≤0.4 V at 8 mA; ensures valid logic-low level for TTL/CMOS reset inputs |
Pinout & Package
SOT-223 package (4-pin, surface-mount), thermally enhanced with exposed thermal pad; pin 4 is dedicated GROUND for improved noise immunity and thermal dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PIN 1 | GROUND | Primary reference return path for internal comparator and reference circuitry |
| PIN 2 | RESET (active-low) | Open-drain output; sinks current when asserted; requires pull-up (internal or external) |
| PIN 3 | VCC | Power supply input; monitored for 15% undervoltage condition |
| PIN 4 | GROUND | Dedicated second ground terminal; reduces ground bounce and improves reset timing stability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX691ACSA+ | Higher quiescent current (15 µA vs. 50 µA), wider VCC range (3.0–5.5 V), no internal pull-up | Supports 3.3V/5V dual-rail systems; requires external pull-up | Choose for multi-voltage designs needing tighter trip accuracy (±1.5%) and watchdog timer |
| TPS3808G15DBVR | Fixed 1.5% trip accuracy, 200 ms min reset timeout, 1.5 µA IQ, SOT-23-5 package | Lower power, smaller footprint, but lacks internal pull-up and 15% trip option | Choose for ultra-low-power battery systems where 4.125 V trip is acceptable and external pull-up is feasible |
Compared with MAX691ACSA+ and TPS3808G15DBVR, the DS1233DZ-15+ offers a unique combination of 15% trip tolerance, integrated pull-up, and SOT-223 thermal performance-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, industrial 5V systems requiring minimal external components and proven legacy compatibility.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC trip point range for DS1233DZ-15+?
The DS1233DZ-15+ has a guaranteed VCC trip point range of 4.0 V to 4.24 V at +25°C, corresponding to 15% undervoltage threshold for a nominal 5V supply. This is specified in the DC Electrical Characteristics table under VCCTP3 parameter, with typical value 4.125 V. The device uses a precision temperature-compensated reference to maintain this tolerance across –40°C to +85°C.
Does DS1233DZ-15+ require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
No, DS1233DZ-15+ does not require an external pull-up resistor. It integrates an internal pull-up resistor of 3.75–6.25 kΩ between VCC and the open-drain RESET output (PIN 2). This eliminates the need for an external component and simplifies design for systems using Motorola 68XXX or HC16 microprocessors.
What is the guaranteed minimum reset pulse width for DS1233DZ-15+?
The guaranteed minimum reset pulse width for DS1233DZ-15+ is 250 ms, with typical value 350 ms and maximum 450 ms. This is specified as tRST and tRPU in the AC Electrical Characteristics table. The timing begins when VCC returns to in-tolerance and ensures sufficient hold time for microprocessor initialization and clock stabilization.
Which package type is used by DS1233DZ-15+?
DS1233DZ-15+ uses the SOT-223 package-a 4-pin surface-mount outline with an exposed thermal pad. Pin 4 is a dedicated GROUND terminal, distinct from TO-92 versions. This package provides superior thermal performance and board-level reliability compared to through-hole alternatives, supporting industrial temperature operation.
Is DS1233DZ-15+ compatible with 3.3V microcontrollers?
No, DS1233DZ-15+ is not designed for 3.3V microcontrollers. Its VCC trip point is fixed at 15% below 5V (4.0–4.24 V), and its operating supply range is optimized for 5V systems. For 3.3V applications, consider DS1233A-15 or other members of the EconoReset family with 3.3V-specific trip points and tolerances.
