Product details
Overview
DS1818-5/T&R from Maxim Integrated is a 3.3V fixed-threshold supervisory IC with pushbutton reset capability, active-low open-drain reset output, 150ms reset timeout, and internal 5.5kΩ pullup resistor. It monitors VCC for power-fail detection in microprocessor systems and supports manual reset via external pushbutton. Used in embedded controllers requiring reliable power-on reset and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the DS1818-5/T&R datasheet, DS1818-5/T&R pinout, DS1818-5/T&R application, or DS1818-5/T&R equivalent, key selection factors include its fixed 3.3V trip point (±5%), 150ms reset hold time, 35µA max quiescent current, TO-92/SOT-23 dual-package support, and integrated pushbutton debouncing logic.
Technical Context
The DS1818-5/T&R implements a precision temperature-compensated voltage reference and comparator to detect VCC deviations beyond ±5% of 3.3V. Its reset assertion is triggered by either power-supply dropout or external pushbutton pull-down, with guaranteed 150ms active-low reset pulse after release or power recovery.
It features an open-drain RST output with internal 5.5kΩ pullup, eliminating external components in many designs. The device operates across -40°C to +85°C and draws ≤35µA at VCC = 5.5V, enabling low-power battery-backed applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Trip Point | 2.98V to 3.15V (±5% of 3.3V); ensures precise brownout detection without external calibration |
| Reset Timeout | 100–250ms (typ. 150ms); guarantees processor stabilization after power-up or pushbutton release |
| Quiescent Current | ≤35µA at VCC ≤ 5.5V; enables multi-year operation in coin-cell-powered systems |
| Output Type | Active-low open-drain with internal 5.5kΩ pullup; reduces BOM count and PCB area |
| Pushbutton Response | Detects ≥1µs low pulse on RST; provides noise-immune manual reset with automatic 150ms hold |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial-grade embedded control environments |
| VCC Range | 1.0V to 5.5V; supports wide-input systems including 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V rails |
Pinout & Package
DS1818-5/T&R is supplied in SOT-23 (3-pin) and TO-92 (3-pin) packages. Both share identical pin mapping: Pin 1 = RST (active-low open-drain reset output), Pin 2 = VCC (power supply input), Pin 3 = GND (ground reference).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (RST) | Active-low reset output | Open-drain driver with internal 5.5kΩ pullup; sinks ≥10mA at 0.4V; compatible with 1.8V–5V logic interfaces |
| 2 (VCC) | Power supply input | Accepts 1.0V–5.5V; powers internal reference, comparator, and timing circuitry |
| 3 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return path for VCC and RST; must be low-impedance for accurate threshold sensing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fixed 3.3V ±5% threshold | Eliminates external resistor divider; ensures consistent reset point across temperature and voltage |
| 150ms reset hold time | Guarantees microprocessor core and peripherals stabilize before release - no external RC timing needed |
| Integrated pushbutton interface | Detects momentary low pulse on RST pin and generates clean 150ms reset pulse - no debounce circuit required |
| Internal 5.5kΩ pullup resistor | Reduces component count and board space; eliminates need for external pullup in most 3.3V/5V systems |
| 35µA max supply current | Enables use in always-on, battery-operated devices such as smart meters and IoT edge nodes |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar supervisory IC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD2+T | 3.0V ±2.5% threshold; no pushbutton monitoring; 140ms reset timeout; 1.2µA quiescent current | Lacks manual reset integration; optimized for ultra-low-power standby, not interactive systems | Choose when lowest possible ICC is critical and pushbutton reset is handled externally |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V ±0.5% threshold; adjustable reset delay (0–10s); 1.1µA quiescent current; no internal pullup | Higher accuracy and programmable timing but requires external pullup and lacks native pushbutton support | Choose when tight threshold tolerance and flexible timeout are prioritized over BOM simplicity |
Compared with MAX809TRD2+T and TPS3808G33DBVR, DS1818-5/T&R uniquely combines fixed 3.3V ±5% detection, integrated pushbutton logic, internal pullup, and 150ms hold time - delivering complete reset functionality in three pins with zero external components.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for DS1818-5/T&R?
The DS1818-5/T&R has a guaranteed VCC trip point of 2.98V (min) to 3.15V (max), corresponding to 3.3V ±5%. This fixed threshold is temperature-compensated and does not require external adjustment. The specification is validated across -40°C to +85°C and applies directly to the DS1818-5/T&R variant as confirmed in the Maxim Integrated datasheet Rev 1 (3/15).
Does DS1818-5/T&R require an external pullup resistor on the RST pin?
No, DS1818-5/T&R includes an internal 5.5kΩ pullup resistor on the RST pin, eliminating the need for an external component in standard 3.3V or 5V systems. The datasheet specifies RP = 3.50–7.5kΩ (typ. 5.5kΩ), and the output sinks ≥10mA at 0.4V. External pullups may be added only if higher drive strength or voltage translation is required.
How does the pushbutton reset function work on DS1818-5/T&R?
The DS1818-5/T&R monitors the RST pin for external pull-down: a ≥1µs low pulse triggers a clean 150ms (typ.) active-low reset pulse upon release. This built-in debouncing avoids external RC networks. The function is fully integrated - no configuration or additional circuitry is needed, and it operates independently of VCC status as long as VCC ≥ 1.0V.
What package options are available for DS1818-5/T&R?
DS1818-5/T&R is offered in both SOT-23 and TO-92 packages, with identical 3-pin pinout (RST-VCC-GND). The "/T&R" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging, commonly used for SOT-23. Mechanical drawings for both packages are published in the Maxim Integrated datasheet, and pin compatibility is maintained across variants.
Is DS1818-5/T&R suitable for automotive applications?
DS1818-5/T&R is rated for -40°C to +85°C operation and meets industrial environmental requirements, but it is not AEC-Q100 qualified. For non-safety-critical automotive body electronics (e.g., interior lighting control or accessory modules), it may be deployed with system-level validation. However, for powertrain or ADAS applications, AEC-Q100-compliant alternatives should be selected instead of DS1818-5/T&R.
