Product details
Overview
DS1816R-10-U from Maxim Integrated (now Analog Devices) is a precision voltage-monitoring reset IC with open-drain output, designed to automatically restart microprocessors after power failure. It provides 10% VCC trip point accuracy (2.80V–2.97V), guarantees 150ms reset pulse width, and operates from -40°C to +85°C in SOT-23 package for embedded power supervision.
For engineers reviewing the DS1816R-10-U datasheet, DS1816R-10-U pinout, DS1816R-10-U application, or DS1816R-10-U equivalent, key selection criteria include trip-point tolerance, reset timeout stability, internal pull-up resistor value, operating temperature range, and compatibility with 3V microcontroller reset inputs.
Technical Context
The DS1816R-10-U integrates a temperature-compensated voltage reference and comparator to detect VCC deviations beyond ±10%. Its internal circuitry asserts RST low on out-of-tolerance detection and holds it active for 100–250ms after VCC recovery - typical 150ms - ensuring processor stabilization.
It features an open-drain RST output with internal 3.5–7.5kΩ pull-up resistor, supports supply voltages from 0V to 5.5V, and draws only 28–35µA quiescent current. No external components are required for basic reset generation in 3V systems.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
SOT-23-3 surface-mount package (2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm), RoHS-compliant, tape-and-reel delivery.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage-monitoring reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G12DBVR | Fixed 1.2V threshold; adjustable delay via external capacitor; higher quiescent current (1.1µA) | Designed for low-voltage ASICs; lacks integrated pull-up; requires external RC network | Prefer when precise delay tuning or sub-1V monitoring is needed; not drop-in for 3V systems |
| MAX6326UR29D3+ | 2.93V fixed threshold; 200ms reset timeout; no internal pull-up; 1.6µA IQ | Optimized for high-accuracy 3V systems; requires external 10kΩ pull-up; tighter trip tolerance (±1.5%) | Select for higher threshold accuracy where 2.93V match is critical; adds one passive component |
Compared with TPS3808G12DBVR and MAX6326UR29D3+, the DS1816R-10-U delivers plug-and-play 3V supervision with built-in pull-up and guaranteed 150ms timeout-reducing layout complexity and qualification effort in cost-sensitive industrial designs.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC trip point range for DS1816R-10-U?
The DS1816R-10-U has a guaranteed VCC trip point range of 2.80V to 2.97V at 25°C, corresponding to its ±10% tolerance specification. This range is validated across the full -40°C to +85°C operating temperature and applies to the DS1816R-10-U variant specifically - not other DS1816 suffixes like -5 or -20.
Does DS1816R-10-U require an external pull-up resistor on the RST pin?
No, DS1816R-10-U includes an internal pull-up resistor of 3.5–7.5kΩ, sufficient for driving standard CMOS microcontroller reset inputs. An external pull-up is only needed if sink current exceeds 10mA or if faster rise time is required beyond what the internal resistor supports.
Can DS1816R-10-U be used with 5V microcontrollers?
Yes, DS1816R-10-U supports VCC up to 5.5V and its open-drain RST output is compatible with 5V-tolerant inputs. However, its 2.80–2.97V trip point is optimized for 3V systems; for 5V supervision, consider DS1816R-20-U (2.47–2.64V) or other variants with higher thresholds.
What is the reset timeout behavior of DS1816R-10-U during power-up?
During power-up, DS1816R-10-U asserts RST low until VCC rises above 2.97V, then holds RST active for 100–250ms (typically 150ms) to allow system stabilization. This timeout is internally generated and independent of external components or supply slew rate.
Is DS1816R-10-U pin-compatible with other DS1816 variants?
Yes, all DS1816 variants - including DS1816R-5-U, DS1816R-10-U, and DS1816R-20-U - share identical SOT-23-3 pinout (RST/VCC/GND) and package dimensions. Only the trip-point tolerance differs; no PCB redesign is needed when substituting between them.
