Product details
Overview
DS1706TESA/T&R from Maxim Integrated is a 3.3V ±5% precision microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-low reset (/RST), watchdog timer (WDS), non-maskable interrupt (NMI), and pushbutton reset (PBRST) functions. It monitors VCC, detects power transients, provides early warning via NMI, and guarantees 130 ms minimum reset pulse width. Used in industrial embedded controllers requiring reliable power-up sequencing and fail-safe recovery.
For engineers reviewing the DS1706TESA/T&R datasheet, DS1706TESA/T&R pinout, DS1706TESA/T&R application, or DS1706TESA/T&R equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin roles, confirmed industrial-temperature operation, exact reset threshold (3.08 V typ), and documented watchdog timeout (1.0–2.2 s).
Technical Context
The DS1706TESA/T&R implements a three-function supervisory architecture: (1) precision VCC monitoring using an internal bandgap reference and comparator with 3.08 V typical trip point; (2) debounced pushbutton reset with guaranteed ≥130 ms /RST assertion on PBRST release; (3) watchdog timer with 1.0–2.2 s timeout triggered by ST input strobes and driving WDS low on timeout.
It supports dual reset signaling-active-low /RST output only (no *RST)-and features high-impedance IN pin for external voltage sensing with 1.25 V internal trip reference. NMI pulses last ≥200 ns with 100 µV hysteresis and require ≥5 µs under-trip duration to avoid noise-induced false triggers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Trip Point | 3.00–3.15 V (±5% at 3.3V systems); ensures reset activation before microprocessor brownout |
| Reset Pulse Width | 130–285 ms; guarantees sufficient time for power supply and CPU stabilization during power-up/fail |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.0–2.2 s; enables software execution monitoring with configurable ST strobe interval |
| NMI Pulse Width | ≥200 ns; provides early power-fail warning with noise immunity against <2 µs glitches |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial environments without derating |
| Supply Current | 50 µA max at VCC < 3.6 V; enables low-power always-on supervision in battery-backed systems |
| IN Pin Reference | 1.25 V ±50 mV; allows flexible external voltage sensing via resistor divider for upstream rail monitoring |
Pinout & Package
DS1706TESA/T&R is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (150-mil) package, RoHS-compliant and tape-and-reel packaged (T&R). Pin assignments are identical across DS1705/DS1706 family variants in SOIC format.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PBRST | Pushbutton Reset Input | Active-low, internally pulled up (40 kΩ typ); debounced to generate ≥130 ms /RST on release |
| VCC | Power Supply Input | 3.0–3.6 V nominal; powers internal comparators, timer, and outputs; trip point 3.08 V typ |
| GND | Ground Reference | Return path for all internal circuits and output drivers; must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
| IN | External Voltage Sense Input | High-impedance (≤1 µA leakage); referenced to 1.25 V internal comparator for custom rail monitoring |
| NMI | Non-Maskable Interrupt Output | Open-drain, active-low; pulses ≥200 ns on IN under-trip; used for early power-fail alert |
| ST | Watchdog Strobe Input | Active-high strobe; resets internal 1–2.2 s timer on rising edge; internally pulled up (180 kΩ) |
| RST | Active-Low Reset Output | Open-drain, active-low; asserted for ≥130 ms on VCC drop or PBRST release; drives microprocessor /RESET |
| WDS | Watchdog Status Output | Open-drain, active-low; driven low for ≥130 ms if ST not strobed within timeout window |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 3.3V ±5% VCC Monitoring | Guarantees reset activation at 3.00–3.15 V, matching tight-tolerance 3.3V system requirements |
| Integrated Watchdog Timer | Eliminates need for external RC timing components; timeout programmable via ST signal frequency |
| Debounced Pushbutton Interface | Removes mechanical switch bounce; ensures clean, deterministic ≥130 ms reset pulse on button release |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX706TESA | Same 3.3V ±5% trip point, identical SOIC-8 package and pinout; higher ICC (80 µA vs. 50 µA) | Valid for legacy Maxim-based designs; lacks DS1706's IN-sense flexibility (no dedicated high-Z sense input) | Select when replacing MAX706-based boards; verify IN functionality not required |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V ±2% tighter tolerance, fixed 200 ms reset timeout, no NMI or WDS outputs; SOT-23-6 package | Suitable for cost-sensitive, space-constrained applications needing only basic reset; no watchdog or early-warning capability | Select when only precise reset is needed and NMI/WDS functions are handled elsewhere |
Compared with DS1706TESA/T&R, MAX706TESA offers direct pin compatibility but omits the high-impedance IN sense input, while TPS3808G33DBVR reduces footprint and improves reset accuracy but eliminates both watchdog and NMI-critical for fail-safe recovery in complex embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC reset threshold for DS1706TESA/T&R?
The DS1706TESA/T&R has a guaranteed VCC trip point of 3.00 V (min), 3.08 V (typ), and 3.15 V (max) - corresponding to ±5% tolerance at 3.3 V nominal supply. This specification is tested and characterized over the full −40°C to +85°C operating range and defines the voltage at which the /RST output is asserted during power-down. The DS1706TESA/T&R uses an internal bandgap reference to maintain accuracy across temperature and supply variations.
Does DS1706TESA/T&R provide both active-high and active-low reset outputs?
No, DS1706TESA/T&R provides only an active-low reset output (/RST) and does not include the active-high *RST output. That function is reserved for DS1706L and DS1706P variants. The DS1706TESA/T&R pinout and datasheet confirm RST as the sole reset output terminal, configured open-drain with pull-down capability for direct interface to microprocessor /RESET inputs.
How is the watchdog timeout period determined for DS1706TESA/T&R?
The DS1706TESA/T&R watchdog timeout is factory-set to 1.0–2.2 seconds, with typical value 1.6 s. It begins timing after /RST becomes inactive (i.e., after power-up stabilization) and resets on each high-to-low transition at the ST input. If ST is not strobed within the timeout window, WDS is driven low for ≥130 ms. No external components are required - timing is fully internal and temperature-compensated.
Can DS1706TESA/T&R monitor a voltage rail other than VCC?
Yes, DS1706TESA/T&R can monitor an external voltage rail using its dedicated IN pin, which compares the applied voltage against an internal 1.25 V reference. A resistor divider scales higher voltages (e.g., 5 V, 12 V) down to the 1.25 V threshold. The DS1706TESA/T&R datasheet provides the exact equation and example calculations for selecting R1/R2 values, ensuring accurate early-warning NMI generation prior to VCC failure.
Is DS1706TESA/T&R pin-compatible with the MAX705/MAX706 family?
Yes, DS1706TESA/T&R is explicitly documented as pin-compatible with MAX705/MAX706 in 8-pin DIP, SOIC, and µSOP packages. Its pin assignment - PBRST, VCC, GND, IN, NMI, ST, /RST, WDS - matches the MAX706 pinout exactly in SOIC-8 format. This enables direct substitution in legacy designs without PCB modification, provided the 3.3V ±5% trip point meets system requirements.
