Product details
Overview
STWD100PYW83F from STMicroelectronics is a single-supply, automotive-qualified watchdog timer IC with 3.4 ms / 6.3 ms / 102 ms / 1.6 s selectable timeout periods, 13 µA typical supply current, and –40 to 125 °C operating range. It features WDI input, active-low WDO output (open-drain or push-pull), chip-enable pin (EN), and is used in safety-critical embedded systems to recover from MCU lockups caused by software hangs or hardware faults.
For engineers reviewing the STWD100PYW83F datasheet, STWD100PYW83F pinout, STWD100PYW83F application, or STWD100PYW83F equivalent, key selection criteria include timeout period granularity, EN pin behavior under transient conditions, WDO output configuration flexibility, and qualification for automotive-grade thermal and ESD stress (HBM 2000 V, CDM 1000 V).
Technical Context
The STWD100PYW83F implements a self-contained watchdog timer with independent reset timing logic that starts counting upon VCC exceeding VSTART (1.9–2.7 V). Timeout detection is triggered only when WDI is not toggled within tWD - no internal clock source or external crystal required.
Its EN pin provides asynchronous enable/disable control with 1 µs minimum pulse width detection and internal 32–100 kΩ pull-down; WDO assertion duration is fixed at ≥10 µs for STWD100xP variants (including PYW83F), and its open-drain mode supports level-shifting up to 6 V via external pull-up.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Watchdog timeout periods | 3.4 ms, 6.3 ms, 102 ms, 1.6 s - four factory-set options; no external components needed for timing selection |
| Supply current (ICC) | 13 µA typ. - enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed or energy-constrained systems |
| Operating temperature | –40 to 125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial environments |
| VCC range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains without level translation |
| WDO output type | Configurable open-drain or push-pull - allows direct interface to bidirectional reset pins or external pull-up to higher voltage rails |
| ESD rating | HBM: 2000 V, CDM: 1000 V - meets robustness requirements for assembly and field operation in harsh environments |
| EN pin behavior | Internal 32–100 kΩ pull-down; enables device when floating - eliminates need for external biasing in most designs |
Pinout & Package
STWD100PYW83F is packaged in SC70-5 (SOT323-5), a 1.8 × 2.2 mm surface-mount package with 0.65 mm lead pitch, optimized for space-constrained automotive and industrial PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (WDO) | Watchdog output | Active-low signal asserted on timeout; configurable as open-drain (requires external pull-up) or push-pull |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for VCC and all I/O; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 3 (EN) | Chip enable input | Asynchronous enable/disable control; internal pull-down ensures default-enabled state when left floating |
| 4 (WDI) | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive reset trigger; accepts ≥1 µs pulses; ignores <100 ns glitches |
| 5 (VCC) | Power supply | Single 2.7–5.5 V supply; powers internal timer and output driver; startup occurs above VSTART (1.9–2.7 V) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Four factory-programmed timeout options | Eliminates external RC timing components and associated calibration drift or tolerance stack-up |
| EN pin with internal pull-down | Reduces BOM count and layout complexity; avoids unintended disable during power sequencing |
| WDO output configurability | Supports both legacy open-drain reset buses and modern push-pull interfaces without redesign |
| Automotive qualification (AEC-Q100) | Validated for use in engine control units, ADAS modules, and other safety-relevant vehicle subsystems |
| Low ICC (13 µA typ.) | Extends battery life in always-on monitoring circuits and enables use in energy-harvesting applications |
Applications
| Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Industrial PLC Controller |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar watchdog timer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6375US29D3+ | Fixed 2.93 s timeout; no EN pin; 1.2 µA ICC; operates down to 1.0 V | Lacks enable control and multi-period flexibility; suited for ultra-low-power, single-timeout systems only | Select when lowest possible quiescent current and wide VCC range (1.0–5.5 V) outweigh need for timeout selection or EN functionality |
| TPS3823-33DBVR | Fixed 200 ms timeout; integrated voltage supervisor; no WDI input; push-pull only | Combines reset supervisor + watchdog but lacks retriggerable WDI interface - cannot detect software hangs mid-execution | Choose when primary need is power-fail detection with basic timeout, not continuous software health monitoring |
Compared with MAX6375US29D3+ and TPS3823-33DBVR, STWD100PYW83F uniquely delivers selectable timeouts, retriggerable WDI, and an EN pin - enabling precise fault detection granularity, flexible integration into existing reset architectures, and coordinated enable/disable during system sleep modes.

FAQ
What is the exact watchdog timeout period for STWD100PYW83F?
The STWD100PYW83F is the "xP" variant, which has a nominal watchdog timeout period of 3.4 ms (min 2.3 ms, max 4.6 ms). This value is factory-programmed and non-adjustable; no external components or configuration registers modify it.
Can STWD100PYW83F drive a microcontroller's bidirectional reset pin directly?
No - direct connection risks signal contention. The recommended interface uses a 4.7 kΩ series resistor between WDO and the MCU's bidirectional reset I/O, as specified in Figure 5 of the datasheet, to prevent simultaneous high/low drive conflicts during reset assertion or release.
Does STWD100PYW83F require an external pull-up resistor on WDO?
Yes, when configured in open-drain mode (default state unless modified per application note). A 10 kΩ pull-up to any supply ≤6 V is sufficient; the resistor ensures valid logic-high levels when WDO is inactive and limits sink current during assertion.
Is STWD100PYW83F pin-compatible with other STWD100 variants?
Yes - all STWD100 variants (xP, xW, xX, xY) share identical SC70-5/SOT23-5 pinouts and electrical interface definitions. Only timeout period and WDO pulse width differ; no PCB redesign is needed when substituting between variants for timing optimization.
