Product details
Overview
DS1836C-10+ from Maxim Integrated is a 3.3V microprocessor supervisory circuit combining power-on reset, battery backup switching, and non-maskable interrupt generation. It monitors VCC with 2.88V trip point (typ), switches VOUT between VCC and VBAT at 2.65V/2.75V thresholds, asserts RST for 350ms after recovery, and triggers NMI when IN falls below 1.25V - used in PIC-based embedded systems with dual-supply resilience requirements.
For engineers reviewing the DS1836C-10+ datasheet, DS1836C-10+ pinout, DS1836C-10+ application, or DS1836C-10+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3.3V-specific power-switching thresholds, push-pull RST output, NMI sensing capability, -40°C to +85°C operation, and dual-package availability (8-pin SO/DIP) for legacy and space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
The DS1836C-10+ integrates three tightly coupled functions: precision voltage monitoring using an on-chip bandgap reference, automatic power-source arbitration between VCC and VBAT, and early-warning NMI generation via high-impedance IN pin. Its reset assertion logic is synchronized to VCC slew rate and maintains active state for 350ms post-recovery.
Unlike DS1836A/B variants, DS1836C-10+ uses 2.65V falling and 2.75V rising thresholds for VCC↔VBAT switching, enabling compatibility with 3.3V systems where supply droop occurs earlier. The push-pull RST output sustains valid logic down to 0V VCC, while NMI requires external 10kΩ pull-up and responds within 1μs of IN crossing 1.25V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Trip Point | 2.88V (typ); triggers reset during 3.3V supply brownout before critical logic failure |
| VCC→VBAT Switch Threshold | 2.65V (typ); initiates battery switchover before VCC collapses below system hold-up margin |
| VBAT→VCC Switch Threshold | 2.75V (typ); restores main supply only after stable recovery, preventing chattering |
| RST Active Duration | 350ms (typ); ensures full microcontroller initialization and clock stabilization post-power-up |
| IN Trip Voltage | 1.25V (typ); enables flexible early-warning sensing of upstream rails via resistor divider |
| Operating Temp Range | -40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial-grade embedded control and telemetry applications |
| Supply Current | 30–50μA (typ at 3.6V); minimizes standby drain on backup battery |
Pinout & Package
DS1836C-10+ is available in 8-pin SO (150mil) and 8-pin DIP (300mil) packages. Both share identical pin mapping and functional assignment.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Main power supply input | 3.3V nominal input; monitored for reset and switch control; supports 1.2V–5.5V operation |
| VBAT | Battery backup supply input | Accepts 1.2V–5.5V; powers VOUT when VCC drops below 2.65V; <0.1μA leakage in off-state |
| NC | No-connect terminal | Internally unconnected; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice |
| VOUT | Switched power output | Delivers regulated power from VCC or VBAT; outputs VCC−0.3V or VBAT−0.3V under load |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for all analog and digital functions; required for accurate voltage sensing |
| IN | Non-maskable interrupt sense input | High-impedance comparator input; trips at 1.25V; accepts divided rail voltages up to VCC/VBAT |
| NMI | Open-drain NMI output | Asserts low on IN threshold breach; requires external 10kΩ pull-up for proper logic level |
| RST | Push-pull reset output | Active-low reset signal; remains valid even if VCC = 0V due to internal pull-down path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 3.3V-optimized switching thresholds | Enables reliable battery switchover in 3.3V systems without external hysteresis components |
| Push-pull RST with 0V-VCC validity | Guarantees deterministic reset state during complete power collapse, eliminating need for external pull-down |
| Programmable NMI sensing via IN pin | Allows user-defined early-warning point on any DC rail using simple resistor divider, extending system shutdown time |
| Integrated temperature-compensated reference | Delivers ±1.5% trip accuracy over -40°C to +85°C without calibration or trimming |
| Dual-package footprint compatibility | SO and DIP versions share identical pinout and electrical behavior, easing prototyping-to-production transition |

FAQ
What is the exact VCC reset trip point for DS1836C-10+?
The DS1836C-10+ has a guaranteed VCC reset trip point of 2.80V (min), 2.88V (typ), and 2.97V (max) over temperature. This 3.3V-specific threshold ensures reset activation before downstream logic enters undefined states during brownout conditions, and is distinct from the DS1836A-10+'s 4.25V–4.50V range.
Does DS1836C-10+ support true 0V-VCC reset validity?
Yes, DS1836C-10+ features a push-pull RST output that maintains valid logic levels even when VCC drops to 0V, thanks to an internal pull-down path. This eliminates the need for external resistors to guarantee reset assertion during total power loss - a key differentiator from open-drain supervisors like TPS3808G33DBVR.
How does the NMI function work on DS1836C-10+?
The NMI output on DS1836C-10+ activates when the voltage at the IN pin falls below 1.25V (typ). Since IN is high-impedance, users configure a resistor divider from a monitored rail to set the precise trip point - e.g., a 260kΩ/100kΩ divider triggers NMI at 4.5V. An external 10kΩ pull-up is mandatory for proper NMI logic levels.
What are the VCC-to-VBAT and VBAT-to-VCC switching thresholds for DS1836C-10+?
DS1836C-10+ switches VOUT from VCC to VBAT when VCC falls below 2.60V (min), 2.65V (typ), or 2.70V (max). It switches back from VBAT to VCC when VCC rises above 2.70V (min), 2.75V (typ), or 2.80V (max). This 100mV hysteresis prevents oscillation during marginal supply conditions.
Is DS1836C-10+ compatible with both SO and DIP footprints?
Yes, DS1836C-10+ is manufactured in both 8-pin SO (150mil) and 8-pin DIP (300mil) packages with identical pinout and electrical specifications. Engineers can prototype on DIP sockets and transition to SO for volume production without redesigning the schematic or layout.
