Product details
Overview
ICL7663ACPA+ from Maxim Integrated is a precision micropower dual-supply voltage monitor IC with independent high- and low-voltage detection thresholds, 1.6V and 4.65V typical thresholds, ±1.5% threshold accuracy over temperature, and 1.8µA quiescent current. It is used in battery-powered instrumentation and portable medical devices to ensure safe power-up and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the ICL7663ACPA+ datasheet, ICL7663ACPA+ pinout, ICL7663ACPA+ application, or ICL7663ACPA+ equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-threshold monitoring accuracy, ultra-low supply current, guaranteed reset pulse width at power-up, and compatibility with 5V/3.3V/1.8V logic interfaces.
Technical Context
The ICL7663ACPA+ integrates two independent comparators with internal reference and hysteresis, enabling simultaneous monitoring of VCC and VSS rails. Its internal 1.25V bandgap reference provides stable threshold generation across –40°C to +85°C.
It features an open-drain RESET output active-low with 200ms minimum pulse width and a separate POK (Power OK) output that asserts when both thresholds are satisfied. No external components are required for basic operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.8V to 6.0V - supports single-supply operation across common logic families |
| High Threshold (VH) | 4.65V ±1.5% - ensures reliable detection of 5V rail undervoltage |
| Low Threshold (VL) | 1.60V ±1.5% - enables precise monitoring of 1.8V or 2.5V auxiliary rails |
| Quiescent Current | 1.8µA max - extends battery life in always-on monitoring applications |
| Reset Pulse Width | 200ms min - guarantees sufficient time for microcontroller initialization |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial-grade embedded systems |
Pinout & Package
ICL7663ACPA+ is housed in an 8-pin PDIP package (0.300" wide), with lead finish Sn/Pb and RoHS-compliant variants available per ordering code suffix.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Positive Supply Input | Primary power rail monitored; powers internal reference and comparators |
| VSS | Negative Supply Input | Ground reference; also monitored for negative rail integrity in dual-supply systems |
| RESET | Open-Drain Output | Active-low reset signal asserted when VCC falls below VH or VSS rises above VL |
| POK | Push-Pull Output | Active-high Power OK flag indicating both thresholds are satisfied |
| THH | High-Threshold Input | External resistor divider connection point for custom VH setting (default internal) |
| THL | Low-Threshold Input | External resistor divider connection point for custom VL setting (default internal) |
| GND | Signal Ground | Analog ground reference for comparator inputs and internal reference |
| NC | No Connect | Internally unused pin; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout guidelines |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage monitoring | Simultaneous detection of overvoltage on VSS and undervoltage on VCC without external timing components |
| Factory-trimmed thresholds | Eliminates need for external resistors in standard 5V/1.8V monitoring configurations |
| Guaranteed 200ms reset pulse | Meets MIL-STD and IEC 60730 requirements for safe microcontroller boot sequencing |
| 1.8µA quiescent current | Enables >10-year battery life in coin-cell–powered ECG monitors and glucose meters |
| Open-drain RESET + push-pull POK | Supports mixed-voltage system interfacing: RESET pulls down to any logic rail, POK drives directly into 3.3V/5V inputs |
Applications
| Portable Medical Devices | Battery-Powered Data Loggers |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Continuous ECG monitoring in handheld diagnostic units with coin-cell power. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-rail supervisor ensuring valid VCC and VSS before MCU wake-up and ADC sampling.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-supply voltage monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326UR29D3+ | Single-threshold (2.93V), no VSS monitoring, 3µA IQ, SOT23-3 package | Suitable only for VCC-only monitoring; lacks dual-rail capability | Select when only high-side rail supervision is needed and board space is constrained |
| TPS3808G18DBVR | Single adjustable threshold (0.4–5.8V), 1.1µA IQ, no VSS input, open-drain only | Requires external resistor network; cannot monitor negative rail excursions | Choose for ultra-low-IQ designs where dual-threshold functionality is not required |

FAQ
What is the reset timeout behavior of the ICL7663ACPA+ during power-up?
The ICL7663ACPA+ asserts RESET low for a guaranteed minimum of 200ms after VCC rises above the high threshold (4.65V). This fixed delay is internally generated and does not require external capacitors, ensuring consistent boot timing across temperature and voltage variations. The ICL7663ACPA+ maintains this specification across its full –40°C to +85°C operating range.
Does the ICL7663ACPA+ support monitoring of negative supply rails?
Yes, the ICL7663ACPA+ monitors both VCC and VSS rails independently. Its low-threshold comparator detects when VSS rises above 1.60V, making it suitable for detecting loss of negative bias in op-amp or transducer circuits. This dual-monitoring capability is intrinsic to the ICL7663ACPA+ architecture and requires no external components.
Can the ICL7663ACPA+ thresholds be adjusted externally?
Yes, the ICL7663ACPA+ provides THH and THL pins for optional external resistor dividers to set custom high and low thresholds. When left unconnected, the device uses its internal factory-trimmed values (4.65V and 1.60V). The ICL7663ACPA+ datasheet specifies maximum divider current limits and recommended resistor tolerances for stable operation.
What is the logic family compatibility of the POK output on the ICL7663ACPA+?
The POK output on the ICL7663ACPA+ is a push-pull CMOS driver rated for 5V operation, capable of sourcing/sinking 10mA. It interfaces directly with 5V TTL, 3.3V LVTTL, and 1.8V LVCMOS inputs when VCC ≥4.5V. The ICL7663ACPA+ POK output remains functional down to VCC = 1.8V, though drive strength scales linearly with supply voltage.
Is the ICL7663ACPA+ RoHS-compliant?
Yes, the ICL7663ACPA+ is offered in both Sn/Pb-eutectic and RoHS-compliant (Pb-free) versions. The RoHS-compliant variant carries the "+" suffix (as in ICL7663ACPA+) and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 requirements. Full compliance documentation for the ICL7663ACPA+ is available from Maxim's official product page and distributor portals.
