Product details
Overview
STM6720TWWB6F from STMicroelectronics is a dual ultra-low voltage supervisor IC with push-button reset, primary/secondary supply monitoring (VCC1/VCC2), adjustable RSTIN input, active-low push-pull RST output, and SOT23-6 package. It features factory-programmed reset thresholds (4.63 V to 1.58 V on VCC1; 3.08 V to 0.79 V on VCC2), 0.626 V internal reference for RSTIN, 13.2/210/900 ms power-up reset delay options, and 11 µA typical supply current at 3.6 V. Used in battery-powered networking equipment for reliable power-on reset sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the STM6720TWWB6F datasheet, STM6720TWWB6F pinout, STM6720TWWB6F application, or STM6720TWWB6F equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-supply monitoring capability, push-pull RST output compatibility with microprocessor reset inputs, manual reset with guaranteed state down to 0.8 V VCC, and SOT23-6 footprint suitability for space-constrained embedded designs.
Technical Context
The STM6720 implements independent voltage comparators for VCC1 and VCC2, each with factory-trimmed thresholds, plus a third comparator using the 0.626 V internal reference applied to RSTIN via external resistor divider. Reset assertion occurs if any monitored voltage falls below its threshold or MR is pulled low.
Reset release is delayed by trec (13.2/210/900 ms typ) after all supplies exceed thresholds and MR returns high. The push-pull RST output is referenced to VCC1 and guaranteed functional down to VCC1 ≥ 0.8 V, enabling robust reset signaling during brown-out conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Threshold | Factory-programmed 4.63 V to 1.58 V; sets primary supply valid window for microprocessor power sequencing. |
| VCC2 Threshold | Factory-programmed 3.08 V to 0.79 V; enables independent monitoring of auxiliary rail (e.g., I/O or analog supply). |
| RSTIN Reference | 0.626 V internal reference; allows user-defined reset threshold for third supply via external resistor divider. |
| Reset Delay (trec) | 13.2 / 210 / 900 ms (typ); ensures stable power-up before releasing processor reset, configurable at factory. |
| Supply Current | 11 µA (typ) at VCC1 = VCC2 = 3.6 V; minimizes quiescent load in battery-backed or energy-sensitive systems. |
| Operating Temp | –40 °C to +85 °C; supports industrial-grade operation in networking and portable equipment environments. |
| RST Output Type | Active-low push-pull; eliminates need for external pull-up and ensures defined logic state during full VCC range ≥ 0.8 V. |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-6 (WB) package: 6-pin surface-mount, 1.3 mm × 2.9 mm body, 0.95 mm height, 0.95 mm pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: RST | Active-low push-pull reset output | Drives low when VCC1/VCC2/RSTIN fault or MR asserted; remains low for trec after recovery; referenced to VCC1. |
| 2: VCC1 | Primary supply voltage input | Power source for internal circuitry and RST output stage; also monitored for reset generation. |
| 3: VCC2 | Secondary supply voltage input | Monitored independently; supports dual-rail systems (e.g., core + I/O supply) without external components. |
| 4: MR | Push-button reset input | Active-low manual reset; internal 50 kΩ pull-up; debounced via external switch to VSS; no external RC needed. |
| 5: RSTIN | Adjustable reset comparator input | High-impedance input for third supply monitoring; threshold set by resistor divider against 0.626 V internal reference. |
| 6: VSS | Ground reference | Common return path for VCC1, VCC2, MR, RSTIN, and RST output stage. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual fixed-threshold monitoring | VCC1 (4.63–1.58 V) and VCC2 (3.08–0.79 V) thresholds factory-programmed per unit; eliminates external resistor networks. |
| Third adjustable supply monitor | RSTIN accepts external divider to set custom reset threshold using precise 0.626 V internal reference. |
| Guaranteed RST state at low VCC | RST output logic state is valid and controlled when VCC1 ≥ 0.8 V - critical for brown-out detection and safe shutdown. |
| Low quiescent current | 11 µA typical supply current enables use in always-on, battery-backed applications such as remote sensors or IoT edge nodes. |
| Multiple reset delay options | Three factory-set trec values (13.2/210/900 ms) accommodate diverse processor boot timing requirements without external timing components. |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 3.3 V system rail and 1.8 V radio supply; MR initiates controlled update reset; trec = 900 ms ensures flash write completion before boot. Use Value: Eliminates risk of corrupted OTA updates due to premature reset release; -40 °C to +85 °C rating supports uncontrolled indoor environments. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-supply supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G18DBVR | Single-supply monitor (VDD only); no VCC2 or RSTIN inputs; fixed 1.8 V threshold; open-drain RST. | Lacks secondary supply monitoring and adjustable third input; requires external pull-up and separate VCC2 supervisor. | Select when only primary rail supervision is required and board space permits additional components. |
| MAX6816EUT+T | Single-channel push-button debouncer with no voltage monitoring; no reset delay or supply supervision. | Provides only MR conditioning - no VCC1/VCC2/RSTIN monitoring or automatic power-on reset functionality. | Use only as supplemental MR interface; cannot replace STM6720's core supervision functions. |
Compared with TPS3808G18DBVR and MAX6816EUT+T, the STM6720TWWB6F uniquely integrates dual fixed-threshold monitoring, adjustable third-input supervision, and factory-configurable reset delay in one SOT23-6 package - reducing component count, PCB area, and design validation effort for multi-rail embedded systems.

FAQ
What reset delay options are available for STM6720TWWB6F?
The STM6720TWWB6F offers three factory-programmed reset delay times: 13.2 ms, 210 ms, and 900 ms (typical). These values are fixed per device and selected at manufacturing - not user-adjustable via external components. The specific trec value for a given unit is encoded in the part marking and documented in the ordering information table of the datasheet.
Can STM6720TWWB6F monitor a 5.0 V supply?
Yes - the VCC1 input supports supply voltages up to 7.0 V absolute maximum, and factory-programmed VCC1 reset thresholds include 4.63 V, making it suitable for monitoring standard 5.0 V rails. The device asserts RST when VCC1 drops below the programmed threshold (e.g., 4.63 V), providing reliable undervoltage detection for legacy or auxiliary 5 V domains.
Is an external pull-up resistor required for the RST pin?
No - the STM6720TWWB6F features an active-low push-pull RST output, which actively drives both high and low states. Unlike open-drain variants, it does not require an external pull-up resistor. This simplifies layout, eliminates pull-up power loss, and ensures fast, rail-to-rail reset signal edges compatible with modern microprocessor reset inputs.
How is the RSTIN pin used to monitor a third supply?
RSTIN accepts a divided-down version of the third supply voltage, referenced to the internal 0.626 V comparator threshold. A resistor divider (e.g., R1 from supply to RSTIN, R2 from RSTIN to GND) sets the trip point as Vtrip = 0.626 × (R1 + R2)/R2. For example, monitoring a 12 V rail requires R1/R2 ≈ 18.1 to trigger reset at 12 V × (R2/(R1+R2)) = 0.626 V.
