Product details
Overview
DS1233M-5+ from Maxim Integrated (now part of Analog Devices) is a precision voltage-monitoring microprocessor supervisory circuit in TO-92 or 8-pin SOIC package, providing active-low reset assertion at 4.375 V typical trip point, 350 ms reset timeout, and -40°C to +85°C operation - used for reliable power-on reset and brownout protection in embedded microcontroller systems.
For engineers reviewing the DS1233M-5+ datasheet, DS1233M-5+ pinout, DS1233M-5+ application, or DS1233M-5+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 4.375 V trip threshold, guaranteed 350 ms reset hold time, internal 5 kΩ pullup, compatibility with Motorola 68XXX/HC16 families, and pin-function equivalence to MC33064/MC34064 series.
Technical Context
The DS1233M-5+ integrates a temperature-compensated bandgap reference and comparator to detect VCC deviations beyond ±5% of nominal 5 V supply. It asserts RST low on both power-up and brownout events, holding reset for 350 ms after VCC returns within tolerance.
Its internal 5 kΩ pullup resistor eliminates external components for open-drain reset signaling, and its pinout matches legacy Motorola supervisory ICs - enabling drop-in replacement without layout changes in existing 68XXX-based designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Trip Point | 4.25 V (min) to 4.49 V (max); ensures reset activation before 5 V rail drops below 4.375 V typical, protecting against marginal supply operation |
| Reset Active Time | 200–500 ms; guarantees ≥350 ms minimum hold time for full microprocessor stabilization after power recovery |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +85°C; supports industrial-grade deployment without derating or thermal management |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.2 V to 5.5 V; allows use across 3.3 V and 5 V systems with same device variant |
| Output Drive | 8 mA sink capability at 0.4 V; sufficient to drive standard CMOS/TTL reset inputs without external buffer |
| Internal Pullup | 3.75–6.5 kΩ; enables direct connection to microprocessor reset pin without external resistor |
Pinout & Package
DS1233M-5+ is available in TO-92 (3-pin) and 8-pin SOIC packages. The TO-92 version uses pins 1 (RST), 2 (VCC), and 3 (GND). The SOIC version maps RST, VCC, GND to pins 1, 2, and 4 respectively, with pins 3 and 5–8 as no-connect.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RST (Pin 1, TO-92 / Pin 1, SOIC) | Active-low open-drain reset output | Drives microprocessor reset input low during fault; requires external pullup only if internal 5 kΩ insufficient for target load |
| VCC (Pin 2, TO-92 / Pin 2, SOIC) | Power supply input | Monitored rail input; powers internal reference and comparator; operates down to 1.2 V but trip function valid only ≥2.7 V |
| GND (Pin 3, TO-92 / Pin 4, SOIC) | Ground reference | Common return for VCC and RST; must be low-impedance path to avoid false resets from ground bounce |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision voltage monitoring | ±1.5% trip accuracy over temperature ensures consistent reset activation across -40°C to +85°C without calibration |
| Guaranteed 350 ms reset timeout | Eliminates need for external RC timing network, reducing BOM count and board space in compact designs |
| Motorola pin-compatible interface | Direct replacement for MC33064/MC34064 in legacy 68XXX systems without PCB revision or firmware change |
| Integrated 5 kΩ pullup resistor | Supports immediate connection to most microprocessor reset inputs, removing one discrete component per channel |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage-monitoring reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326–T43D+ | Fixed 4.3 V trip, 200 ms min reset timeout, SOT23-3 package, no internal pullup | Requires external 10 kΩ pullup; suited for space-constrained designs where 350 ms hold time is not mandatory | Select when board area is critical and reset timing margin can be reduced to 200 ms |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Adjustable trip via external resistor divider; 200–1200 ms programmable reset delay; 5.5 V max VCC | Needs external components for trip setting and timing; supports flexible rail monitoring beyond fixed 5 V | Select when multi-rail supervision or configurable thresholds are required across product variants |
Compared with MAX6326–T43D+ and TPS3808G33DBVR, the DS1233M-5+ delivers guaranteed 350 ms reset hold and integrated pullup in legacy-compatible TO-92/SOIC footprints - simplifying qualification and reducing validation effort in cost-sensitive industrial control upgrades.

FAQ
What is the exact voltage trip point of DS1233M-5+?
The DS1233M-5+ has a guaranteed VCC trip point between 4.25 V (minimum) and 4.49 V (maximum), with 4.375 V typical. This threshold is factory-trimmed and temperature-compensated to ensure consistent brownout detection across -40°C to +85°C. The DS1233M-5+ does not support adjustable trip points - it is a fixed 5 V supervisor variant.
Does DS1233M-5+ require an external pullup resistor on the RST pin?
No, DS1233M-5+ includes an internal 5 kΩ pullup resistor on the RST pin, eliminating the need for an external component in most standard microprocessor reset interfaces. However, if the target MCU reset input has unusually high leakage or capacitive loading, an external pullup may still be recommended - verify using the DS1233M-5+ IOL specification of 8 mA at 0.4 V.
Is DS1233M-5+ pin-compatible with MC34064?
Yes, DS1233M-5+ is explicitly pin-function compatible with MC34064 in both TO-92 and SOIC packages, as confirmed in the official datasheet. Its RST, VCC, and GND pin assignments match, and its electrical behavior (trip point, reset timeout, output drive) meets or exceeds MC34064 specifications - making DS1233M-5+ a validated drop-in upgrade.
What is the minimum operating voltage for DS1233M-5+ to function correctly?
The DS1233M-5+ specifies a supply voltage range of 1.2 V to 5.5 V, but its voltage-monitoring function is only guaranteed above 2.7 V. Below that, the internal reference and comparator may not operate reliably. For correct trip-point detection and 350 ms reset timing, DS1233M-5+ must be used with VCC ≥2.7 V - though it remains powered and functional down to 1.2 V.
Can DS1233M-5+ be used with 3.3 V microcontrollers?
Yes, DS1233M-5+ supports 3.3 V systems: its VCC pin accepts 1.2–5.5 V, and its RST output is open-drain with 8 mA sink capability - compatible with 3.3 V logic levels. However, its 4.375 V trip point is intended for 5 V rails; for 3.3 V supervision, consider DS1233M-3+ (2.72 V typical trip) instead of DS1233M-5+.
