Product details
Overview
DS1836D-10 from Maxim Integrated is a 3.3V microprocessor supervisory circuit with dual-supply power switching, precision voltage monitoring, and non-maskable interrupt (NMI) generation. It monitors VCC for out-of-tolerance conditions, asserts RST for 350ms after recovery, switches VOUT between VCC and VBAT at 2.6V/2.8V thresholds, and triggers NMI when IN drops below 1.25V - ideal for battery-backed PIC-based embedded systems requiring fail-safe power management.
For engineers reviewing the DS1836D-10 datasheet, DS1836D-10 pinout, DS1836D-10 application, or DS1836D-10 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.88V VCC reset trip point, 2.65V VCC-to-VBAT switch threshold, push-pull RST output, NMI open-drain interface, and support for -40°C to +85°C industrial operation.
Technical Context
The DS1836D-10 implements a precision bandgap-referenced comparator for VCC monitoring and IN sense input, with hysteresis built into its power-switching logic to prevent chatter during supply transitions. Its reset assertion timing is internally timed and independent of external components, ensuring consistent 350ms reset hold time after VCC returns to tolerance.
Unlike DS1836A/B variants, the DS1836D-10 operates specifically in 3.3V systems: it initiates VOUT switching from VBAT to VCC when VCC rises above 2.80V (typ), and reverts to VBAT when VCC falls below 2.65V (typ); its RST output activates when VCC drops below 2.88V (typ) and remains active for ≥350ms post-recovery.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Reset Trip Point | 2.80V to 2.97V (typ 2.88V) - defines precise 3.3V supply brown-out detection threshold |
| VCC-to-VBAT Switch Threshold | 2.60V to 2.70V (typ 2.65V) - ensures clean, hysteresis-protected power source handover |
| RST Active Duration | 200ms to 500ms (typ 350ms) - guarantees sufficient processor initialization time after power recovery |
| IN Sense Trip Voltage | 1.15V to 1.35V (typ 1.25V) - enables user-configurable early-warning NMI via external resistor divider |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C - supports industrial-grade reliability without derating |
| Supply Voltage Range | VCC/VBAT = 1.2V to 5.5V - allows flexible use with backup batteries or auxiliary rails |
| Output Type | Push-pull RST, open-drain NMI - eliminates need for external pull-ups on RST; NMI requires 10kΩ pull-up |
Pinout & Package
DS1836D-10 is available in 8-pin SO (150mil) surface-mount package and 8-pin DIP (300mil) through-hole package. Both share identical pin mapping.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Main power supply input | 3.3V nominal supply; monitored for reset and switching decisions |
| VBAT | Battery backup supply input | Provides continuous VOUT during main supply failure; leakage <0.1μA |
| NC | No-connect terminal | Not internally bonded; must remain unconnected per design |
| VOUT | Switched power output | Delivers regulated power from VCC or VBAT depending on real-time voltage comparison |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all analog and digital functions; required for accurate sensing |
| IN | User-defined sense input | High-impedance comparator input referenced to 1.25V internal bandgap; accepts divided system rail |
| NMI | Non-maskable interrupt output | Open-drain signal asserting early warning of impending power loss; requires external pull-up |
| RST | Reset output | Push-pull CMOS output actively driven low during fault; no external pull-up needed |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-supply power switching | Automatically selects VCC or VBAT for VOUT based on real-time voltage comparison with 0.1V hysteresis |
| Temperature-compensated voltage reference | Stable 1.25V internal bandgap reference enables accurate, drift-free IN and VCC monitoring across -40°C to +85°C |
| Programmable early-warning NMI | Configurable trip point via external resistor divider on IN pin provides system-level shutdown headroom before RST assertion |
| Guaranteed 350ms reset hold time | Internally timed reset pulse ensures reliable microcontroller initialization regardless of supply ramp rate or noise |
| Low quiescent current | 30–50μA typical ICC at 3.6V enables long battery life in always-on backup applications |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Module | PIC-Based Data Logger |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6361KA29+T | Fixed 2.93V reset threshold; no power-switching function; only RST output (no NMI or VOUT) | Suitable for basic reset-only applications without battery switchover or early-warning interrupt | Select when only brown-out reset is needed and VOUT/NMI functionality is unnecessary |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V fixed reset threshold (3.08V min); no VOUT switching or NMI; push-pull RST; 1.6μA IQ | Lower power, but lacks dual-supply management and predictive interrupt capability | Prefer for ultra-low-power battery-only systems where backup autonomy and early warning are not required |
Compared with MAX6361KA29+T and TPS3808G33DBVR, the DS1836D-10 uniquely integrates power-source arbitration, NMI-based pre-failure signaling, and guaranteed 350ms reset timing - making it irreplaceable in applications demanding coordinated shutdown, battery-backed operation, and deterministic recovery behavior.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC reset threshold for DS1836D-10?
The DS1836D-10 has a specified VCC reset trip point of 2.80V (min), 2.88V (typ), and 2.97V (max) - calibrated for 3.3V systems. This threshold is temperature-compensated and applies across the full -40°C to +85°C operating range. The DS1836D-10 uses this value to assert RST during brown-out and maintain it for ≥350ms after VCC recovers above the release threshold of 2.97V.
Does DS1836D-10 support true 0V VCC operation for RST output?
Yes - the DS1836D-10's RST output uses a push-pull structure that remains valid even when VCC drops below 1.2V. With an external 100kΩ pull-down resistor from RST to GND, the DS1836D-10 can drive RST low down to 0V VCC, ensuring reset integrity during complete power loss. This feature is explicitly validated in the DS1836D-10 datasheet Figure 5.
How does DS1836D-10 differ from DS1836B-10?
The DS1836D-10 is the 3.3V variant with 2.88V reset and 2.65V switch thresholds, while DS1836B-10 is the 5V variant with 4.37V reset and 3.85V switch thresholds. They share identical pinout and NMI functionality but are not interchangeable due to incompatible voltage thresholds. Using DS1836B-10 in a 3.3V system would cause premature reset assertion and failed power switching.
What external components are required for DS1836D-10 NMI operation?
The DS1836D-10 NMI output requires a single external pull-up resistor (typically 10kΩ) to VCC or VBAT. For the IN sense input, a two-resistor voltage divider is needed to scale the monitored rail to ≤1.25V at the IN pin - e.g., for a 4.5V rail, R1 = 260kΩ and R2 = 100kΩ yields 1.25V trip point. No other passive components are mandatory for basic DS1836D-10 operation.
Is DS1836D-10 RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes - DS1836D-10 is manufactured in RoHS-compliant, lead-free, and halogen-free packaging per Maxim Integrated's standard product policy. The 8-pin SO package uses matte tin lead finish, and the device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1). Full compliance documentation is available under Analog Devices' product change notices for DS1836D-10.
