Product details
Overview
STM6524AUABDL6F from STMicroelectronics is a 6-pin Smart Reset™ supervisor IC with dual active-low push-button inputs (SR0, SR1), factory-programmed 10 s Smart Reset™ setup delay (tSRC), and fixed 360 ms reset pulse duration (tREC). It operates from 1.65 V to 5.5 V, draws only 1.5 µA typical supply current, and delivers open-drain active-low RST output with internal 50 kΩ pull-up resistor in UDFN6 (1.6 mm × 1.3 mm) package. Used in portable consumer electronics requiring robust, glitch-immune delayed reset control.
For engineers reviewing the STM6524AUABDL6F datasheet, STM6524AUABDL6F pinout, STM6524AUABDL6F application, or STM6524AUABDL6F equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, exact pin functions, real-world timing behavior (tSRC = 10 s typ., tREC = 360 ms typ.), package footprint details, and validated alternative options for dual-button delayed reset systems.
Technical Context
The STM6524AUABDL6F implements dual-input synchronous Smart Reset™ logic: both SR0 and SR1 must be held low simultaneously for ≥10 s (tSRC) before asserting RST. Its reset output remains active for exactly 360 ms (tREC), independent of button release timing - a factory-programmed, non-volatile configuration confirmed by part number suffix "UAB" (tSRC=10 s, tREC=360 ms).
It features test mode entry via overvoltage on SR0 (VTEST = VCC + 0.9 to +1.4 V), triggering a shortened 21 ms tSRC-SHORT for rapid validation. Input glitch immunity equals tSRC when both inputs are asserted, and the device guarantees valid deasserted RST states down to VCC = 1.0 V after undervoltage detection below 1.575 V.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
STM6524AUABDL6F uses the UDFN6 (1.6 mm × 1.3 mm, 0.4 mm pitch) package with wettable flanks, RoHS-compliant and halogen-free per ECOPACK®2. Pin 1 is marked by a dot; pin 4 is NC (not bonded, must connect to VSS).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 VSS | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal circuitry; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 2 SR1 | Secondary Smart Reset™ input | Active-low push-button input with optional internal pull-up; requires simultaneous assertion with SR0 for reset initiation. |
| 3 RST | Reset output | Open-drain, active-low output with integrated 50 kΩ pull-up; drives microcontroller /RESET pin directly. |
| 4 NC | No connection | Not internally bonded; electrically isolated and must be tied to VSS for mechanical stability and thermal performance. |
| 5 SR0 | Primary Smart Reset™ input | Active-low push-button input with optional internal pull-up; also serves as test mode trigger when overvolted (>VCC + 0.9 V). |
| 6 VCC | Power supply | 1.65–5.5 V input; requires 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual synchronized Smart Reset™ inputs | SR0 and SR1 must both be held low ≥10 s to initiate reset - eliminates spurious resets from single-button bounce or ESD events. |
| Factory-programmed tREC | Fixed 360 ms reset pulse ensures full processor initialization regardless of user button release timing - no firmware coordination needed. |
| Integrated 50 kΩ pull-up on RST | Eliminates external resistor in standard 3.3 V/5 V reset networks, reducing BOM count and PCB area in space-constrained designs. |
| Test mode with feedback | Voltage-triggered (SR0 > VCC + 0.9 V) entry with visible RST pulsing - enables in-system validation without dedicated test equipment. |
| Glitch-immune timing architecture | tSRC-based input filtering (10 s typ.) rejects transients <10 s - critical for noisy handheld environments with mechanical switch contact bounce. |
Applications
| Smartphone Hard Reset Management | e-Reader System Recovery |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: User holds power + volume-down buttons for >10 s to force recovery when OS hangs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: STM6524AUABDL6F monitors both buttons synchronously and asserts RST only after full 10 s delay, then holds it for 360 ms to guarantee SoC reset completion. Use Value: Prevents accidental reboots from brief presses while ensuring deterministic hardware-level recovery - no reliance on bootloader or firmware responsiveness. |
Use Scenario: E-reader freezes during firmware update; user initiates forced recovery via dual-button sequence. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as hardware-enforced reset arbiter: validates concurrent SR0/SR1 assertion, enforces 10 s tSRC, and delivers precise 360 ms tREC pulse to reset application processor. Use Value: Guarantees complete memory controller and flash interface reset before reboot - avoids corrupted update states or boot loops. |
| Portable GPS Navigation Recovery | MP3 Player Firmware Crash Recovery |
|
Use Scenario: Navigation device locks during map rendering; user triggers hard reset using dedicated recovery buttons. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides fail-safe reset path independent of MCU state; tREC ensures GPS baseband and RF ICs fully reset before reinitialization. Use Value: Eliminates need for battery removal; maintains RTC and backup RAM integrity while guaranteeing full system restart within defined timing window. |
Use Scenario: MP3 player stops responding to controls; user performs long-press reset using play/pause + menu buttons. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-input Smart Reset™ logic interprets coordinated button press as intentional recovery command, not accidental keypress - triggers 360 ms RST pulse. Use Value: Enables consistent recovery across firmware versions without modifying application code - hardware-level reset policy enforcement. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-input delayed reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STM6524ALABDL6F | tSRC = 6.0 s (typ.), same tREC = 360 ms, identical package and pinout | Suitable where shorter user-noticeable delay improves perceived responsiveness in less-critical recovery scenarios | Select when 6 s delay balances safety against usability - e.g., consumer audio devices with frequent soft resets. |
| STM6524APABDL6F | tSRC = 7.5 s (typ.), same tREC = 360 ms, identical package and pinout | Offers intermediate delay between 6 s and 10 s; retains same reset pulse fidelity and low-power profile | Choose for mid-tier portable devices needing stronger anti-glitch protection than 6 s but faster recovery than 10 s. |
Compared with STM6524AUABDL6F, the ALABDL6F and APABDL6F variants retain identical RST timing, power consumption, and package - differing only in factory-programmed tSRC (6 s and 7.5 s), enabling precise tailoring of user-facing reset latency without redesigning the reset network.

FAQ
What is the exact tSRC and tREC timing for STM6524AUABDL6F?
The STM6524AUABDL6F has a factory-programmed Smart Reset™ setup delay (tSRC) of 10.0 s (typical), with ±20% variation over –40 °C to +85 °C. Its reset timeout period (tREC) is fixed at 360 ms (typical), also factory-programmed and unaffected by ambient temperature or supply voltage changes within operating range.
Does STM6524AUABDL6F require external pull-up resistors on SR0/SR1 inputs?
No. The STM6524AUABDL6F does not include internal pull-up resistors on SR0 or SR1 inputs - external 10–100 kΩ pull-ups to VCC are required unless the host microcontroller provides them. This is confirmed by datasheet Table 1 and Figure 4/5 schematics, which explicitly show external pull-up placement.
Can the tREC duration be changed after manufacturing?
No. The tREC value of 360 ms is factory-programmed during wafer sort and permanently stored in non-volatile configuration memory. It cannot be altered in-system or via external signals - only selectable at order time via part number suffix (e.g., "AB" = 360 ms, "E" = 1.28 ms).
Is pin 4 (NC) safe to leave floating on the PCB?
No. Pin 4 is marked NC (not connected internally) but must be soldered to VSS per datasheet Section 2 and Figure 2. Leaving it floating risks mechanical instability, thermal stress concentration, and potential solder joint fracture in portable devices subject to vibration or flex - ST specifies connection to ground for reliability.
