Product details
Overview
STM819MM6E from STMicroelectronics is a 5 V microprocessor supervisory IC with battery switchover, active-low and active-high reset outputs, manual reset input (MR), power-fail comparator (PFI/PFO), and battery freshness seal - designed for non-volatile SRAM backup in industrial embedded systems. It guarantees RST assertion down to VCC = 1.0 V, features 200 ms typical reset timeout (trec), and draws only 40 µA typical supply current.
For engineers reviewing the STM819MM6E datasheet, STM819MM6E pinout, STM819MM6E application, or STM819MM6E equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-reset polarity support, PFI/PFO early power-fail warning, MR-driven manual reset timing, and guaranteed low-VCC reset assertion - all critical for reliable LPSRAM retention during brownout or main power loss.
Technical Context
The STM819MM6E implements a precision voltage monitor with reset threshold VRST ≈ 4.63 V (typ) and switchover voltage VSO = min(VBAT, VRST), enabling seamless VCC-to-VBAT transition for external LPSRAM. Its dual push-pull RST/RST outputs are asserted simultaneously on VCC drop, MR low, or power-fail detection - with trec = 200 ms (typ) ensuring sufficient MCU initialization time.
Unlike watchdog-equipped variants (e.g., STM817), the STM819 lacks WDI functionality but includes dedicated MR input with internal 40 kΩ pull-up and noise-immunity support via optional 0.1 µF capacitor. The PFI/PFO pair provides programmable power-fail warning at VPFI = 2.4 V (typ), independent of VCC level, and operates with push-pull output drive.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply voltage | 5 V nominal; supports full operation across VCC = 1.0 V to 5.5 V - ensures reset validity during deep brownout. |
| Reset threshold (VRST) | 4.63 V (typ); precise trip point for detecting VCC undervoltage - guarantees deterministic reset initiation. |
| Reset timeout (trec) | 200 ms (typ); fixed internal timer duration after VCC recovery or MR release - meets common MCU boot timing requirements. |
| Power-fail threshold (VPFI) | 2.4 V (typ); independent comparator reference for early warning before VCC drops below VRST - enables graceful shutdown. |
| Battery supply current | 0.4 µA (typ); ultra-low quiescent draw in VBAT-backup mode - extends coin-cell life beyond 10 years. |
| Operating temperature | –40 °C to +85 °C; industrial-grade rating - validated for use in harsh environments without derating. |
| Package | SO8 (Small Outline, 8-pin); standard surface-mount footprint compatible with automated assembly and IPC-7351B land patterns. |
Pinout & Package
STM819MM6E is housed in an 8-pin SO8 package (body width 3.9 mm, lead pitch 1.27 mm), per STMicroelectronics mechanical drawing DocID10522 Rev 11 Section 6.1. Pin functions are validated per Table 3 and Figures 5 & 8 of the datasheet.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Main supply input | Primary 5 V rail connection; powers internal circuitry and feeds VOUT when above VSO. |
| VBAT | Backup battery input | Connects to coin cell or supercap; automatically supplies VOUT when VCC falls below VSO. |
| VOUT | LPSRAM supply output | Switched output delivering either VCC or VBAT - maintains continuous power to external low-power SRAM. |
| RST | Active-low reset output | Push-pull output asserted low during fault conditions; directly interfaces with MCU reset pin requiring active-low assertion. |
| RST | Active-high reset output | Push-pull output asserted high during same fault conditions; supports MCUs with active-high reset inputs. |
| MR | Manual reset input | Active-low input with internal 40 kΩ pull-up; initiates reset on logic low - enables hardware reset button without external components. |
| PFI | Power-fail input | Analog input monitoring system voltage; triggers PFO low when VPFI < 2.4 V - provides early warning prior to VCC collapse. |
| PFO | Power-fail output | Push-pull output driven low when PFI < VPFI or VCC < 2.4 V; signals impending power loss to host controller or PMIC. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-polarity reset outputs | RST (active-low) and RST (active-high) both asserted simultaneously - eliminates need for external inverters in mixed-reset-interface systems. |
| Automatic battery switchover | VOUT switches from VCC to VBAT at VSO = min(VBAT, VRST) - maximizes main supply usage and extends backup runtime. |
| Battery freshness seal | Internal circuit prevents VBAT discharge during storage until first VCC power-up - preserves shelf life of primary lithium cells. |
| Power-fail comparator (PFI/PFO) | Independent 2.4 V threshold with push-pull PFO - delivers fast, noise-immune early warning without external comparators or pull-ups. |
| Guaranteed reset down to 1.0 V | RST remains valid even as VCC collapses to 1.0 V (no battery) - ensures last-chance reset assertion before MCU lockup. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STM817MM6F | Includes watchdog timer (WDI); no MR input; identical PFI/PFO, RST/RST, and battery switchover. | Requires periodic WDI toggling; unsuitable where manual reset is mandatory or watchdog adds complexity. | Select when system-level software watchdog supervision is required and MR is unused. |
| MAX692CPA+ | Single active-low RST; no RST output; no PFI/PFO; higher 10 µA VBAT current; same SO8 package. | Lacks dual-reset polarity and early power-fail warning - limits use to basic reset-only designs. | Select only if dual-reset and PFI/PFO are unnecessary and legacy MAXIM compatibility is prioritized. |
Compared with STM817MM6F and MAX692CPA+, the STM819MM6E uniquely combines MR-driven manual reset, dual-polarity reset outputs, and integrated PFI/PFO - making it optimal for systems requiring field-serviceable reset, multi-MCU interface flexibility, and deterministic power-fail response without software overhead.

FAQ
Does STM819MM6E support watchdog functionality?
No. Unlike STM817/818, the STM819MM6E omits the watchdog timer (WDI pin) and related circuitry. Its reset generation relies solely on VCC monitoring, MR input, and PFI-triggered power-fail detection. This simplifies design where software-level watchdog supervision is handled externally or not required.
What is the purpose of the battery freshness seal in STM819MM6E?
The battery freshness seal prevents VBAT discharge during storage by disabling the internal switchover path until VCC is first applied and exceeds VRST. This preserves coin-cell capacity for field use - critical for long-shelf-life devices like utility meters and medical implants where pre-deployment battery drain must be avoided.
Can VBAT exceed VCC in STM819MM6E operation?
Yes. VBAT may be up to 5.5 V regardless of VCC level. When VCC falls below VSO = min(VBAT, VRST), VOUT connects to VBAT through a 100 Ω internal switch. This allows use of higher-voltage backup sources (e.g., 3.6 V LiSOCl₂) while maintaining compatibility with 5 V main rails.
How does the PFI/PFO function interact with VCC monitoring?
PFI/PFO operates independently of the main reset comparator: PFO asserts low when PFI < 2.4 V (typ) OR when VCC falls below 2.4 V - providing early warning before VCC reaches the 4.63 V reset threshold. This dual-trigger behavior enables proactive system shutdown or data save operations prior to reset assertion.
