Product details
Overview
DS1706EUA/T&R from Maxim Integrated is a 5.0V ±10% supply voltage supervisor IC with active-low reset output, watchdog timer, non-maskable interrupt, and pushbutton reset debouncing - designed for microprocessor monitoring in industrial embedded systems requiring reliable power-up/power-down sequencing and fault recovery. It delivers 130ms minimum reset pulse width, 1s watchdog timeout, and operates across -40°C to +85°C.
For engineers reviewing the DS1706EUA/T&R datasheet, DS1706EUA/T&R pinout, DS1706EUA/T&R application, or DS1706EUA/T&R equivalent, key selection considerations include VCC trip point (4.25–4.50V), RST timing (130–285ms), NMI early-warning capability, WDS watchdog status signaling, and µSOP-8 package compatibility with legacy MAX705/MAX706 designs.
Technical Context
The DS1706EUA/T&R integrates three independent monitoring functions: precision VCC supervision with hysteresis, user-configurable IN-pin voltage sensing for upstream power rail monitoring, and a 1-second watchdog timer triggered by ST input strobes. Its comparator-based power detection uses an internal 1.25V bandgap reference and supports both /RST and /WDS outputs.
It implements hardware-level system safety via NMI generation at voltage decay onset (200µs pulse, 100µV hysteresis), guarantees 130ms reset assertion on power-up and pushbutton release, and provides internal pull-ups (40kΩ on PBRST, 180kΩ on ST) to simplify external circuitry - all within a single 8-pin µSOP footprint.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX706ESA | Same 5V ±10% trip point, identical µSOP-8 pinout, but lacks NMI output and IN sense input | Supports basic reset + watchdog only; no early-warning capability or external rail monitoring | Select when NMI and IN functionality are unnecessary and cost reduction is prioritized |
| TPS3808G15DBVR | 1.5V fixed threshold (not adjustable), no NMI, no IN pin, but offers programmable reset delay (0–10s) and lower quiescent current (1.1µA) | Designed for ultra-low-power battery-backed systems; unsuitable for multi-rail or early-warning use cases | Choose only for simple 5V supply monitoring where extended delay and minimal ICC outweigh missing features |
Compared with MAX706ESA and TPS3808G15DBVR, DS1706EUA/T&R uniquely combines VCC supervision, external voltage sensing, NMI generation, and watchdog in one µSOP-8 device - making it the only option among the three that supports both fault prediction and multi-point power integrity verification.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC trip point range for DS1706EUA/T&R?
The DS1706EUA/T&R has a factory-trimmed VCC trip point of 4.25V (minimum) to 4.50V (maximum), corresponding to a nominal 5.0V supply with ±10% tolerance. This range is specified over the full -40°C to +85°C operating temperature and ensures reset activation before downstream logic becomes unreliable. The DS1706EUA/T&R does not support user adjustment of this threshold.
Does DS1706EUA/T&R provide both active-high and active-low reset outputs?
No, DS1706EUA/T&R provides only an active-low reset output (/RST). The datasheet confirms that DS1706 variants (including DS1706EUA/T&R) feature /RST and /WDS outputs, whereas active-high RST is exclusive to DS1706L and DS1706P variants. This distinction is clearly defined in the PIN DESCRIPTION section and ORDERING INFORMATION table.
Can DS1706EUA/T&R monitor a voltage rail other than its own VCC supply?
Yes, DS1706EUA/T&R can monitor an external voltage rail using the IN pin, which compares the applied voltage against an internal 1.25V reference. By configuring an external resistor divider, users can scale higher voltages (e.g., 12V or 24V) down to the 1.25V trip point - enabling upstream power rail supervision independent of the DS1706EUA/T&R's 5V VCC supply.
What is the watchdog timeout accuracy and temperature dependence of DS1706EUA/T&R?
The DS1706EUA/T&R watchdog timeout is specified as 1.0s (minimum) to 2.2s (maximum) over -40°C to +85°C, with typical value 1.6s. This variation arises from process and temperature effects on the internal RC oscillator. The timeout is tested at 4.5V for 5V devices, and no external calibration or trimming is supported - design margin must accommodate the full 1.0–2.2s range.
Is DS1706EUA/T&R pin-compatible with MAX706ESA, and are there any layout considerations?
Yes, DS1706EUA/T&R is fully pin-compatible with MAX706ESA in the 8-pin µSOP (118-mil) package - same pin count, numbering, and function mapping. No PCB changes are required for drop-in replacement. However, note that DS1706EUA/T&R adds NMI and IN functionality absent in MAX706ESA, so unused pins on the legacy design remain floating or may be left unconnected without impact.
