Product details
Overview
DS1812-5/T&R from Maxim Integrated is a 5V precision voltage-monitoring reset IC with active-high push-pull output, 4.62V typical VCC trip point, 150ms reset timeout, and -40°C to +85°C operating range-used for reliable microprocessor power-up sequencing in embedded control systems.
For engineers reviewing the DS1812-5/T&R datasheet, DS1812-5/T&R pinout, DS1812-5/T&R application, or DS1812-5/T&R equivalent, key selection criteria include trip voltage tolerance (±0.13V), guaranteed 100–300ms reset assertion window, push-pull drive capability (350µA VOH, 10mA IOL), and SOT-23/TO-92 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The DS1812-5/T&R integrates a temperature-compensated bandgap reference and comparator to detect VCC deviations below 4.50–4.75V; it asserts RST immediately on undervoltage and holds it active for ≥100ms after VCC recovery, ensuring processor stabilization before release.
Its CMOS push-pull output eliminates external pull-up resistors, supports direct interface to 5V logic inputs, and delivers rail-to-rail VOH (VCC−0.1V) and robust sink current (10mA), enabling direct connection to microcontroller reset pins without level-shifting.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| VCC Trip Point | 4.50V (min) to 4.75V (max); ensures reliable reset initiation during 5V supply sag below system operational threshold |
| Reset Timeout | 100–300ms; guarantees sufficient hold time for CPU clock stabilization and internal register initialization |
| Output Type | Push-pull active-high; eliminates need for external pull-up resistor and supports direct MCU reset pin drive |
| VOH @ 500µA | VCC − 0.1V; maintains logic-high margin across full VCC range (1.2–5.5V) for noise-immune signaling |
| IOL | 10mA; provides strong sink capability to override leakage or weak pull-ups on target reset line |
| ICC | 30–40µA; enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed or energy-sensitive applications |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage-monitoring reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G50DBVR | 4.95–5.05V trip range; adjustable delay via capacitor; 2.5µA ICC; open-drain output | Requires external pull-up; suited for multi-rail systems needing programmable timeout | Select when adjustable reset duration or ultra-low ICC is prioritized over component count reduction |
| MAX809SEUR+T | 4.63V nominal trip; 140ms min reset timeout; open-drain output; 15µA ICC | Lacks push-pull drive; needs pull-up; smaller SOT-23 footprint but lower sink current (20µA) | Choose for legacy designs already using MAX809 footprint or where minimal quiescent current outweighs drive strength |
Compared with TPS3808G50DBVR and MAX809SEUR+T, the DS1812-5/T&R uniquely combines fixed 4.62V trip accuracy, guaranteed 100–300ms push-pull reset pulse, and zero-external-component operation-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained 5V microcontroller supervisory roles where reliability trumps configurability.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC trip voltage range for DS1812-5/T&R?
The DS1812-5/T&R has a specified VCC trip point range of 4.50V (minimum) to 4.75V (maximum), with 4.62V as the typical value. This tolerance ensures consistent reset activation across manufacturing lots and temperature extremes from −40°C to +85°C. The DS1812-5/T&R uses an internal temperature-compensated voltage reference to maintain this accuracy without external calibration.
Does DS1812-5/T&R require an external pull-up resistor on the RST pin?
No, the DS1812-5/T&R features a push-pull active-high output that drives RST directly to VCC or GND without requiring an external pull-up resistor. This simplifies the BOM and PCB layout compared to open-drain reset ICs. The DS1812-5/T&R's VOH is guaranteed to be VCC − 0.1V at 500µA load, ensuring robust logic-high signaling to microcontrollers.
What is the guaranteed reset timeout duration for DS1812-5/T&R?
The DS1812-5/T&R guarantees a reset active time (tRST) of 100ms minimum to 300ms maximum after VCC returns to tolerance. This window satisfies JEDEC and industrial timing standards for microprocessor stabilization. The DS1812-5/T&R achieves this with an internal timer circuit independent of external components, ensuring repeatable behavior across units and conditions.
Can DS1812-5/T&R operate with supply voltages below 5V?
Yes, the DS1812-5/T&R functions across VCC = 1.2V to 5.5V, but its trip point is fixed at ~4.62V. Below ~4.5V, it asserts reset continuously; above ~4.75V, it releases reset. So while it powers up at lower voltages, the DS1812-5/T&R only performs valid supervision in 5V systems. For 3.3V rails, DS1812-33/T&R is the correct variant.
Is DS1812-5/T&R available in both SOT-23 and TO-92 packages?
Yes, DS1812-5/T&R is offered in both SOT-23-3 (surface-mount) and TO-92 (through-hole) packages, with identical pinout and electrical specifications. The "T&R" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging for automated assembly. Both variants share the same 4.62V trip point, 150ms typical reset timeout, and push-pull output architecture.
