Product details
Overview
STWD100YNYWY3F from STMicroelectronics is an automotive-qualified, self-contained watchdog timer IC that monitors microcontroller operation via WDI input and asserts active-low WDO output on timeout. It offers four factory-set timeout periods (3.4 ms, 6.3 ms, 102 ms, 1.6 s), 13 µA typical supply current, and operates from –40 to 125 °C in SOT23-5 package. Used in automotive ECUs to prevent lockup-induced system failure.
For engineers reviewing the STWD100YNYWY3F datasheet, STWD100YNYWY3F pinout, STWD100YNYWY3F application, or STWD100YNYWY3F equivalent, key selection criteria include timeout period matching, EN pin enable logic, WDO output configuration (open-drain vs. push-pull), automotive qualification status, and thermal stability across extended temperature range.
Technical Context
The STWD100YNYWY3F implements a fixed-function watchdog with internal oscillator-based timing-no external components required. Its timeout period is permanently set to 1.6 s (per ordering code YNYWY3F), determined by internal resistor-capacitor network and verified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1.
Operation relies on periodic WDI toggling within tWD; failure triggers WDO assertion for tPW = 210 ms (typ.). The EN pin enables/disables monitoring with 1 µs minimum pulse width detection and internal 63 kΩ pull-down, allowing floating-enable default behavior.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Watchdog timeout | 1.6 s (factory-configured; determines max MCU response window before system reset) |
| Supply current | 13 µA typ. at VCC = 5 V (enables low-power always-on monitoring in battery-backed systems) |
| Operating temp | –40 to 125 °C (meets automotive under-hood ambient requirements) |
| VCC range | 2.7 to 5.5 V (compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V logic domains without level-shifting) |
| WDO type | Active-low, open-drain or push-pull (supports flexible reset line interfacing; open-drain requires external pull-up) |
| EN input logic | Pull-down enabled; floating = enabled (simplifies board design-no external bias needed for default operation) |
| ESD rating | HBM: 2000 V, CDM: 1000 V (ensures robustness during handling and in-circuit transient events) |
Pinout & Package
STWD100YNYWY3F is packaged in SOT23-5 (5-pin small outline transistor) with 1.9 mm × 2.8 mm footprint, 0.95 mm pitch, and gull-wing leads suitable for automated assembly and high-reliability automotive applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (WDO) | Watchdog output | Active-low reset signal; open-drain or push-pull configurable-drives MCU reset line directly or via external pull-up |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for VCC and all I/O; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into timing circuit |
| 3 (EN) | Chip enable | Logic-controlled watchdog activation; internal 63 kΩ pull-down ensures enabled-by-default when left floating |
| 4 (WDI) | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive trigger; toggled by host MCU to reset internal timer-glitch rejection filters <100 ns noise |
| 5 (VCC) | Supply voltage | Power input (2.7–5.5 V); includes internal startup detection (VSTART = 2.2 V typ.) to delay timer activation until stable rail |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified-validated for use in engine control, body electronics, and ADAS modules |
| Four selectable timeouts | Factory-programmed 1.6 s timeout eliminates need for external RC tuning or configuration pins |
| Low quiescent current | 13 µA typical ICC enables integration into always-on subsystems without compromising battery life |
| Robust enable architecture | EN pin accepts ≥1 µs pulses and rejects <100 ns glitches-prevents spurious disable/enable in noisy environments |
| Reset pulse width control | WDO asserts for 210 ms (typ.), ensuring reliable MCU reset assertion time across voltage and temperature |
Applications
| Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone hardware safety monitor-asserts WDO to force ECU reset if WDI not toggled within 1.6 s. Use Value: Provides ASIL-B-aligned fail-safe behavior independent of MCU internal watchdog, meeting ISO 26262 functional safety requirements. | Use Scenario: Supervises vision processing or radar fusion algorithms in lane-keeping or automatic emergency braking modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: External watchdog timer verifying deterministic task scheduling; WDO connected to system-level reset controller. Use Value: Guarantees recovery from algorithmic deadlock or sensor data freeze-critical for maintaining operational readiness in safety-critical ADAS functions. |
| Body Control Module (BCM) | Automotive Infotainment Head Unit |
Use Scenario: Ensures reliability of door-lock, lighting, and climate control logic running on low-cost MCUs in harsh vehicle electrical environments. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Hardware-level supervision of BCM firmware; EN pin tied to ignition signal for power-cycle synchronized enable. Use Value: Prevents BCM lockup causing loss of power windows or interior lighting-improves perceived vehicle quality and serviceability. | Use Scenario: Protects Linux-based infotainment systems against GUI freezes or audio stack crashes during Bluetooth streaming or navigation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Independent watchdog asserting WDO to cold-reset application processor while preserving baseband modem state. Use Value: Enables graceful recovery without full system reboot-maintains cellular connectivity and reduces user disruption during prolonged UI unresponsiveness. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar watchdog timer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6375KA+T | Fixed 1.6 s timeout, 1.8–5.5 V supply, 12 µA ICC, but no EN pin and only open-drain WDO | Lacks chip enable functionality-requires external logic for conditional watchdog activation | Select when EN functionality is unnecessary and lowest possible supply current is prioritized |
| TPS3823DBVR | Adjustable timeout (via external capacitor), 2.5–5.5 V, 20 µA ICC, push-pull WDO only, no WDI input | Timer is windowed (not standard watchdog); no WDI interface-relies on VCC monitoring only | Select for power-supply brownout protection rather than MCU execution monitoring |
Compared with MAX6375KA+T and TPS3823DBVR, STWD100YNYWY3F uniquely combines automotive qualification, dedicated WDI/WDO signaling, EN pin control, and factory-set 1.6 s timeout-making it optimal for MCU supervision in safety-critical automotive nodes where configurability is secondary to proven reliability.

FAQ
What is the exact watchdog timeout period for STWD100YNYWY3F?
The STWD100YNYWY3F has a factory-configured watchdog timeout period of 1.6 seconds (typical), with min/max values of 1.12 s and 2.24 s respectively, as specified in Table 4 of the official datasheet (DocID14134 Rev 11). This value is fixed and cannot be adjusted externally.
Does STWD100YNYWY3F support both open-drain and push-pull WDO outputs?
Yes-STWD100YNYWY3F supports both configurations. The output type is determined during manufacturing and indicated by the order code suffix; YNYWY3F uses open-drain WDO, requiring an external pull-up resistor (e.g., 10 kΩ) to the target reset rail, as confirmed in Section 3.2 of the datasheet.
How does the EN pin function, and what happens when it's left unconnected?
EN is an active-high enable input with an internal 63 kΩ pull-down resistor. When left floating, EN is pulled low by default, enabling the watchdog. To disable, apply ≥1 µs high pulse to EN; to re-enable, drive EN low again. Glitches shorter than 100 ns are ignored, per Section 3.3 and Table 4.
Is STWD100YNYWY3F compatible with 3.3 V microcontrollers?
Yes-STWD100YNYWY3F operates over 2.7–5.5 V, fully supporting 3.3 V systems. Its WDI input thresholds (VIH = 0.7×VCC, VIL = 0.3×VCC) and WDO output specs (VOL ≤ 0.4 V at ISINK = 3.2 mA) ensure clean interfacing with standard 3.3 V CMOS logic without level shifters.
