Product details
Overview
DS1706ESA/T&R from Maxim Integrated is a 3.3V ±10% supply voltage supervisor IC with active-low reset output, watchdog timer, and non-maskable interrupt functionality. It monitors VCC, senses external power rails via high-impedance IN pin, debounces pushbutton reset, and delivers guaranteed 130ms reset pulse width. Used in embedded microcontroller systems requiring reliable power-up sequencing and fail-safe recovery.
For engineers reviewing the DS1706ESA/T&R datasheet, DS1706ESA/T&R pinout, DS1706ESA/T&R application, or DS1706ESA/T&R equivalent, key selection criteria include VCC trip point (3.08V typ), watchdog timeout (1.0–2.2s), NMI early-warning capability, and SOIC-8 industrial-grade packaging for space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The DS1706ESA/T&R implements three independent monitoring functions: precision VCC threshold detection (3.08V ±0.07V), user-configurable IN-pin voltage sensing (1.25V reference), and 1-second watchdog timer with ST input strobing. All functions operate across -40°C to +85°C with internal hysteresis and noise immunity.
It generates RST (active-low) on VCC dropout or PBRST assertion, pulses NMI (active-low) at 200µs duration upon IN-sense violation, and drives WDS (active-low) on watchdog timeout. Reset remains asserted ≥130ms after VCC recovery, ensuring processor stabilization.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326UT29D3+T | 3.0V ±2.5% fixed threshold; no IN pin or NMI output; only RST output | Lacks external rail monitoring and early-warning interrupt; suitable only for single-rail VCC supervision | Select when only basic 3.0V reset is required and board space permits smaller SOT-23-3 package |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V ±0.5% threshold; adjustable reset delay; no watchdog or NMI; pushbutton reset not supported | No software execution supervision or external rail sensing; reset delay configurable but no early warning | Choose for higher-precision 3.3V monitoring where watchdog/NMI functions are handled separately |
Compared with DS1706ESA/T&R, MAX6326UT29D3+T offers tighter threshold accuracy but omits critical features like NMI and watchdog; TPS3808G33DBVR provides superior VCC tolerance control but requires external circuitry for pushbutton reset and failsafe monitoring.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC trip point specification for DS1706ESA/T&R?
The DS1706ESA/T&R has a nominal VCC trip point of 3.08 V with a tolerance range of 3.00 V to 3.15 V at -40°C to +85°C. This 3.3V ±10% threshold is factory-trimmed and temperature-compensated, ensuring consistent reset behavior across industrial temperature extremes without external calibration. The DS1706ESA/T&R datasheet specifies VCCTP = 3.08 V (typ) in the DC Electrical Characteristics table.
Does DS1706ESA/T&R support external voltage rail monitoring beyond VCC?
Yes, DS1706ESA/T&R supports external rail monitoring via its IN pin, which references an internal 1.25 V ±0.05 V bandgap. By connecting a resistor divider between the target rail and GND, users can configure trip points such as 4.5 V or 12 V. The DS1706ESA/T&R datasheet provides the equation VSENSE = (R2/(R1+R2)) × 1.25 V and confirms IN pin operation up to VCC, enabling safe interface with higher-voltage supplies.
How does the watchdog timer in DS1706ESA/T&R function and what is its timeout range?
The DS1706ESA/T&R watchdog timer initiates timing upon RST deassertion and resets on each falling edge of the ST input. If ST is not strobed within 1.0–2.2 seconds, WDS asserts low for ≥130 ms. The DS1706ESA/T&R AC Electrical Characteristics table defines tTD = 1.0–2.2 s, tested at 2.7 V for 3.3V devices. This window allows flexible firmware polling intervals while preventing false timeouts due to transient noise.
Is DS1706ESA/T&R pin-compatible with other members of the DS1705/DS1706 family?
Yes, DS1706ESA/T&R is pin-compatible with all DS1705/DS1706 variants in SOIC-8 packaging, including DS1705ESA, DS1706LESA, and DS1706RESA. The pinout (PBRST, VCC, GND, IN, NMI, ST, RST, WDS) is identical across the family, enabling direct substitution where trip point and output polarity match design requirements. The DS1706ESA/T&R datasheet explicitly states "Pin-compatible with the MAXIM MAX705/MAX706 in 8-pin DIP, 8-pin SOIC, and -SOP".
What is the purpose and timing behavior of the NMI output on DS1706ESA/T&R?
The NMI output on DS1706ESA/T&R provides early-warning interrupt signaling - pulsing low for ≥200 µs when either VCC drops below 3.08 V or the IN pin voltage falls below 1.25 V. It features 100 µV hysteresis and 5 µs noise immunity, ensuring clean triggering without false alarms. The DS1706ESA/T&R Timing Diagrams (Figures 8 and 9) confirm NMI activation precedes RST assertion, giving firmware time to execute safe shutdown routines before reset occurs.
