Product details
Overview
DS1815-10 from Maxim Integrated (now Analog Devices) is a precision voltage-monitoring reset IC with push-pull output, designed to supervise 3.3V microprocessor power supplies. It asserts an active-low reset for 150ms after VCC returns to tolerance, features a 2.80–2.97V trip point, operates from -40°C to +85°C, and uses a temperature-compensated reference for ±10% accuracy.
For engineers reviewing the DS1815-10 datasheet, DS1815-10 pinout, DS1815-10 application, or DS1815-10 equivalent, key selection criteria include VCC trip threshold tolerance, reset timeout stability, push-pull drive capability, TO-92/SOT-23 package compatibility, and guaranteed operation down to 0V VCC during reset assertion.
Technical Context
The DS1815-10 integrates a precision bandgap voltage reference and comparator to detect VCC deviations relative to its factory-trimmed 10% threshold. Its internal timing circuit ensures a minimum 100ms and maximum 250ms reset pulse width after power-up recovery, independent of VCC slew rate.
It delivers push-pull output capable of sourcing 350µA at 2.4V and sinking 10mA at 0.4V, eliminating external pull-up resistors. The device remains functional across full VCC range (0V to 5.5V), with RST valid down to 0V VCC - critical for brown-out detection in low-power embedded systems.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage-monitoring reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326–29D | Fixed 2.93V trip point; open-drain output; requires external pull-up | Lacks 0V-VCC validity; less suitable for deep brown-out detection | Prefer DS1815-10 when reset must remain asserted below 1V VCC or when minimizing external components |
| TPS3808G12 | Adjustable trip via external resistor divider; 200ms default timeout; higher quiescent current (1.1µA) | Requires design-in effort for threshold setting; not drop-in compatible | Choose DS1815-10 for fixed 10%-tolerance 3.3V supervision with zero-configuration deployment |
Compared with MAX6326–29D and TPS3808G12, DS1815-10 offers unique 0V-VCC reset validity, factory-trimmed 10% threshold, and push-pull output - delivering lower system-level BOM cost and higher reliability in unregulated or battery-depleted power scenarios.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC trip point range for DS1815-10?
The DS1815-10 has a guaranteed VCC trip point range of 2.80V (minimum) to 2.97V (maximum) at +25°C, corresponding to its ±10% tolerance specification for 3.3V supply monitoring. This range is factory-trimmed using a temperature-compensated reference and remains stable across the full -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range. DS1815-10 maintains this accuracy without external calibration components.
Does DS1815-10 assert reset when VCC drops to 0V?
Yes, DS1815-10 asserts and maintains the active-low RST signal down to 0V on the VCC pin - a key differentiator from many competing supervisors. This ensures fail-safe reset behavior during complete power collapse or deep brown-out events. The DS1815-10 continues to function reliably in this state due to its internal charge pump and low-voltage design, making it ideal for battery-backed or energy-harvesting systems.
Can DS1815-10 replace DS1815-5 or DS1815-20 in the same footprint?
Yes, DS1815-10 shares identical TO-92 and SOT-23 pinouts and package dimensions with DS1815-5 and DS1815-20, enabling direct physical replacement. However, the trip thresholds differ: DS1815-5 is 2.98–3.15V, DS1815-10 is 2.80–2.97V, and DS1815-20 is 2.47–2.64V. System validation is required to confirm functional compatibility, as DS1815-10 triggers reset earlier on falling VCC than DS1815-5.
What is the maximum sink current capability of DS1815-10's RST output?
The DS1815-10 RST output can sink up to +10mA at 0.4V, enabling direct interface with standard TTL or CMOS inputs without level-shifting. This push-pull capability eliminates the need for an external pull-up resistor, reducing BOM count and PCB area. DS1815-10 also sources 350µA at 2.4V, supporting weak pull-up requirements in mixed-voltage systems.
Is DS1815-10 qualified for automotive applications?
No, DS1815-10 is specified for industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) and is not AEC-Q100 qualified. It lacks automotive-specific screening, extended temperature testing, and fault-reporting features required for automotive ECUs. For automotive use, consider DS1815-10's automotive-grade counterparts such as MAX6326–29D with AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualification - though DS1815-10 remains optimal for industrial and commercial embedded systems.
