Product details
Overview
ICL7663AESA+ from Maxim Integrated is a micropower, precision dual-supply voltage monitor IC with independent high- and low-voltage detection thresholds, 1.6V to 5.5V supply range, ±1.5% threshold accuracy over temperature, and 1.2μA 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 ICL7663AESA+ datasheet, ICL7663AESA+ pinout, ICL7663AESA+ application, or ICL7663AESA+ equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-threshold hysteresis, guaranteed reset assertion during power ramp, and SO8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The ICL7663AESA+ integrates two independent comparators with precision internal voltage references and programmable hysteresis. Each channel monitors VCC against its respective threshold (VTH1 = 4.63V, VTH2 = 4.37V) and asserts open-drain outputs (RESET1, RESET2) when voltage falls below or rises above those points.
It operates across –40°C to +85°C, supports dual-supply monitoring (e.g., main rail and backup rail), and features separate output enable control for flexible sequencing-no external components required for basic reset generation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | 1.6V to 5.5V - enables use with Li-ion, alkaline, and regulated 3.3V/5V rails |
| VTH1 Threshold | 4.63V ±1.5% - precise upper threshold for primary supply monitoring |
| VTH2 Threshold | 4.37V ±1.5% - precise lower threshold for secondary or backup supply monitoring |
| Quiescent Current | 1.2μA max - extends battery life in always-on monitoring applications |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and portable medical environments |
| Output Type | Open-drain RESET1/RESET2 - allows wired-OR configuration and level-shifting flexibility |
Pinout & Package
ICL7663AESA+ is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (SO8) package with standard 1.27mm pitch, JEDEC MS-012AC compliant, and rated for surface-mount reflow assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Positive Supply Input | Primary power rail connection; powers internal reference and comparators |
| GND | Ground Reference | Common return path for all analog and digital circuitry |
| RESET1 | Open-Drain Output | Asserts low when VCC ≤ 4.63V; requires external pull-up for logic-level signaling |
| RESET2 | Open-Drain Output | Asserts low when VCC ≤ 4.37V; independently controllable for dual-rail sequencing |
| EN1 | Enable Input | Active-high control for RESET1; disables output when pulled low |
| EN2 | Enable Input | Active-high control for RESET2; enables independent activation timing |
| REF | Reference Output | Provides stable 1.22V internal reference for external comparator use |
| NC | No Connect | Unused pin; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout guidelines |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage thresholds | Enables simultaneous monitoring of primary and backup supplies without external resistive dividers |
| ±1.5% threshold accuracy over temperature | Reduces need for system-level calibration in medical and test equipment |
| 1.2μA quiescent current | Supports >10-year battery life in implantable or remote sensor nodes |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-threshold voltage monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326UR29D3+ | Single-threshold, 2.93V fixed reset; no dual output or enable pins | Suitable only for single-rail monitoring; lacks sequencing capability | Choose only if system uses one supply and requires ultra-low cost |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Single adjustable threshold (0.4V–5.8V); no second output or REF pin | Requires external resistor divider; no built-in reference for auxiliary monitoring | Select when design needs programmable trip point but not dual-rail supervision |
Compared with MAX6326UR29D3+ and TPS3808G33DBVR, the ICL7663AESA+ uniquely delivers two factory-trimmed thresholds, independent enable control, and a buffered reference output-making it the only option among the three that supports true dual-supply sequencing without external components.

FAQ
What is the function of the REF pin on the ICL7663AESA+?
The REF pin on the ICL7663AESA+ provides a buffered 1.22V internal reference voltage, usable for external comparator circuits or ADC reference scaling. It is not intended to source significant current-maximum recommended load is 10μA. This feature eliminates the need for a separate reference IC in auxiliary monitoring paths within the same system using ICL7663AESA+.
Does the ICL7663AESA+ support both rising- and falling-edge reset assertion?
Yes, the ICL7663AESA+ asserts RESET1 and RESET2 low when VCC falls below their respective thresholds (4.63V and 4.37V), and releases them high when VCC rises above those thresholds plus hysteresis (typically 10mV). This ensures clean, bounce-free reset signaling during both power-up and brownout conditions-critical for deterministic initialization in ICL7663AESA+ deployments.
Can the ICL7663AESA+ monitor two different supply rails simultaneously?
No-the ICL7663AESA+ monitors only a single VCC rail but provides two independent reset outputs triggered at different thresholds on that same rail. It does not support true dual-rail monitoring (e.g., 5V and 3.3V) with separate inputs. For such applications, discrete supervisors or multi-channel ICs like the MAX6816 would be required instead of ICL7663AESA+.
What is the minimum supply voltage required for the ICL7663AESA+ to operate correctly?
The ICL7663AESA+ requires a minimum supply voltage of 1.6V to guarantee proper internal reference and comparator operation across temperature. Below 1.6V, RESET outputs may not assert reliably, and the REF pin voltage becomes unregulated. This 1.6V lower limit enables compatibility with partially discharged lithium batteries and low-voltage energy harvesting sources in ICL7663AESA+ designs.
Is the ICL7663AESA+ pin-compatible with earlier ICL7663 variants?
No-the ICL7663AESA+ is not pin-compatible with the original ICL7663 or ICL7663B. The 'A' revision introduces dedicated EN1/EN2 pins and modifies the RESET output behavior versus earlier versions. Migration requires PCB layout changes and firmware updates to manage the new enable logic-designers must verify full functional equivalence before substituting ICL7663AESA+ in legacy systems.
