Product details
Overview
ISL88012IH522Z-T7A from Intersil is a dual-voltage supervisor IC in 5-lead SOT-23 packaging, providing fixed 2.19V VDD monitoring and user-adjustable VMON monitoring down to 0.6V, with complementary active-low (RST) and active-high (RST) reset outputs, ±1.5% threshold accuracy, and 5.5µA supply current. It serves in power-up sequencing and brownout protection for microprocessor-based embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the ISL88012IH522Z-T7A datasheet, ISL88012IH522Z-T7A pinout, ISL88012IH522Z-T7A application, or ISL88012IH522Z-T7A equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-threshold supervision capability, 200ms nominal POR timeout, manual reset input (MR), immunity to supply transients, and operation down to VDD = 1V - all critical for reliable µP/µC power monitoring in industrial and portable equipment.
Technical Context
The ISL88012IH522Z-T7A integrates two independent voltage monitoring paths: one compares VDD against a factory-trimmed 2.19V threshold (±1.5% over –40°C to +85°C), while the other compares VMON against an internal 600mV reference, enabling custom monitoring of any supply ≥0.6V via external resistor divider. Both paths feed into a shared reset logic block that asserts complementary RST/RST outputs.
Reset assertion occurs on power-up (POR), VDD or VMON undervoltage, manual MR pull-down, or watchdog timeout (though ISL88012 lacks WDI functionality). The device features hysteresis (22mV at 2.19V trip point), operates from 2.0V to 5.5V, and maintains valid reset signaling down to VDD = 1V - ensuring robust behavior during deep brownouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDD Threshold | 2.19V ±1.5% - factory-trimmed fixed trip point for primary supply monitoring |
| VMON Threshold | 0.6V (default) - internal reference enabling adjustable monitoring down to 0.6V via external resistors |
| POR Timeout | 200ms typical - ensures stable power before releasing reset to µP/µC |
| Supply Current | 5.5µA (typ) at 2.5V - ultra-low quiescent current for battery-powered applications |
| Reset Outputs | Complementary RST (push-pull high) and RST (open-drain low) - supports mixed-logic interface requirements |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C - industrial-grade temperature range for embedded control systems |
| VDD Range | 2.0V to 5.5V - compatible with 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V system rails |
Pinout & Package
Package: 5-lead SOT-23 (Pb-free, RoHS compliant, JEDEC MO178AA / EIAJ SC-74).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RST/MR | Combined reset output & manual reset input | Open-drain active-low reset output; debounced active-low manual reset trigger (≤100mV, ≥1µs) |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal circuitry and external bias networks |
| 3 - RST | Active-high push-pull reset output | Drives high (VDD) when not asserting reset; complements RST/MR for logic-level flexibility |
| 4 - VDD | Supply input & monitored rail | Power source (2.0–5.5V) and primary voltage sense node with 2.19V trip point |
| 5 - VMON | Adjustable voltage monitor input | Accepts externally divided voltage; compared to 0.6V internal reference for secondary supply supervision |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage supervision | Simultaneously monitors VDD (2.19V fixed) and VMON (0.6V adjustable), enabling 2-rail PGOOD generation without external comparators |
| Complementary reset outputs | RST (push-pull high) and RST/MR (open-drain low) eliminate need for external level-shifting or pull-up resistors in mixed-logic systems |
| Manual reset with debounce | MR pin accepts direct push-button connection (GND) and rejects noise spikes <1µs, simplifying field-service reset design |
| Ultra-low supply current | 5.5µA typical at 2.5V enables >10-year battery life in always-on supervisory functions for portable instrumentation |
| Valid reset below 1V VDD | Asserts reset even as VDD collapses to 1V, preventing erratic µP operation during deep brownout recovery |
Applications
| Industrial Process Controller | Portable Medical Monitor |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISL88013IH522Z-T7A | Includes watchdog timer (1.6s normal / 51s startup timeout); lacks VMON input - only fixed VDD supervision at 2.19V | Required where system-level software hang detection is needed; unsuitable for dual-rail monitoring | Select when watchdog functionality outweighs need for adjustable VMON; requires PCB redesign due to different pinout (WDI replaces VMON) |
| MAX6326XR23D3+T | Single 2.32V supervisor with manual reset; no VMON, no complementary outputs, higher 12µA supply current | Only monitors one rail; lacks flexibility for secondary supply tracking or logic-level versatility | Use only for cost-sensitive single-rail applications where complementary outputs and ultra-low current are non-critical |
Compared with ISL88012IH522Z-T7A, ISL88013IH522Z-T7A adds watchdog capability but sacrifices dual-supply monitoring, while MAX6326XR23D3+T reduces feature set and increases current draw - making ISL88012IH522Z-T7A optimal for compact, low-power dual-rail supervision where precise threshold matching and reset flexibility are essential.

FAQ
What is the exact voltage threshold for VDD monitoring on the ISL88012IH522Z-T7A?
The ISL88012IH522Z-T7A has a factory-programmed VDD threshold of 2.19V, specified with ±1.5% accuracy over the full –40°C to +85°C operating temperature range. This value is confirmed in the Ordering Information table (page 3) and Electrical Specifications (page 6) of FN8093 Rev 5.00, and applies exclusively to the ISL88012IH522Z-T7A variant marked "AHL".
Does the ISL88012IH522Z-T7A support watchdog timer functionality?
No, the ISL88012IH522Z-T7A does not include watchdog timer functionality. Watchdog capability is exclusive to the ISL88013 and ISL88015 variants per the Product Features Table (page 5) and Functional Block Diagrams (page 4). The ISL88012IH522Z-T7A pinout substitutes VMON for WDI, confirming absence of watchdog circuitry.
Can the ISL88012IH522Z-T7A monitor a 12V supply?
Yes, the ISL88012IH522Z-T7A can monitor a 12V supply using the VMON input with an external resistor divider. As stated in the Pin Descriptions (page 5) and Figure 2 (page 9), VMON compares against a 0.6V internal reference; a 19:1 resistor ratio (e.g., 180kΩ/10kΩ) scales 12V to 0.6V at VMON, enabling accurate 12V supervision with ±1.5% effective threshold tolerance.
What is the purpose of the RST/MR pin on the ISL88012IH522Z-T7A?
The RST/MR pin on the ISL88012IH522Z-T7A serves a dual function: it acts as an open-drain active-low reset output (RST) and as a debounced active-low manual reset input (MR). Per the Pin Descriptions (page 5), pulling this pin below 100mV for ≥1µs triggers a system reset, and it remains asserted for the full 200ms POR timeout - enabling direct push-button integration without external components.
Is the ISL88012IH522Z-T7A still in active production?
No, the ISL88012IH522Z-T7A is marked "No longer available or supported" in the official Ordering Information table (page 3 of FN8093 Rev 5.00). While Aetrix Electronics provides legacy supply support, design-in of new products should consider alternatives such as ISL88013IH522Z-T7A (with watchdog) or newer Renesas supervisor families with extended lifecycle assurance.
