Product details
Overview
X5329S8Z-2.7 from Renesas Electronics is a CPU supervisor IC integrating power-on reset control, supply voltage supervision, and 32Kbit SPI EEPROM in an 8-lead SOIC package. It asserts an active-high RESET output when VCC falls below 2.55–2.7V, supports 2.7–5.5V operation, delivers <1µA standby current, and features reprogrammable VTRIP for precision brownout detection in embedded microcontroller systems.
For engineers reviewing the X5329S8Z-2.7 datasheet, X5329S8Z-2.7 pinout, X5329S8Z-2.7 application, or X5329S8Z-2.7 equivalent, this device serves as a system-level power integrity and nonvolatile configuration manager-particularly where single-chip reset + memory integration reduces BOM count and improves reliability in space-constrained industrial controllers and IoT edge nodes.
Technical Context
The X5329S8Z-2.7 implements dual-function supervision: a power-on reset circuit that activates at ~1V and holds RESET high for 100–280ms, and a low-VCC detector with hysteresis (20mV) that asserts RESET when VCC drops below its factory-set 2.55–2.7V trip point. The reset remains active until VCC exceeds VTRIP for ≥200ms.
Its integrated SPI EEPROM operates at up to 2MHz (modes 0,0 and 1,1), supports 32-byte page writes with 5ms typical write cycle time, and includes Block Lock™ protection configurable to lock 0%, 25%, 50%, or 100% of the 32Kbit array. The WP pin and nonvolatile WPEN bit enable in-circuit programmable ROM mode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.7V to 5.5V - supports wide-input industrial and battery-powered systems without external regulators |
| VTRIP Threshold | 2.55V to 2.7V - factory-programmed brownout detection point with ±100mV accuracy at 25°C |
| RESET Polarity | Active HIGH - directly interfaces with microcontrollers requiring high-asserted reset signals |
| EEPROM Size | 32Kbit (4K × 8) - stores boot configuration, calibration data, or firmware metadata without external memory |
| Standby Current | <1µA at VCC = 5.5V - enables multi-year battery life in always-on monitoring applications |
| SPI Clock Speed | Up to 2MHz - compatible with standard MCU SPI peripherals without clock divider tuning |

Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead narrow-body SOIC (M8.15E), RoHS-compliant, Pb-free with matte tin anneal finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 CS | Chip Select Input | Enables SPI communication when LOW; places device in standby when HIGH |
| 2 SO | Serial Output | Push-pull data output synchronized to SCK falling edge; high-impedance when CS HIGH |
| 3 WP | Write Protect Input | Hardware lock for Status Register when WPEN = 1; enables in-circuit programmable ROM mode |
| 4 VSS | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal circuits and I/O drivers |
| 5 SI | Serial Input | Latches opcode, address, and data on SCK rising edge; MSB-first protocol |
| 6 SCK | Serial Clock | Master-controlled timing signal; rising edge clocks inputs, falling edge clocks outputs |
| 7 RESET/RESET | Reset Output | Open-drain active-HIGH reset signal; asserted at power-up (~1V) and during brownout |
| 8 VCC | Supply Voltage | Primary power input; powers both supervisor logic and EEPROM array |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Reprogrammable VTRIP | Field-adjustable reset threshold via VP pulse sequence on SCK/SI - enables fine-tuning without hardware change |
| Block Lock™ Protection | Nonvolatile BL0/BL1 bits allow selective write-protection of 0%, 25%, 50%, or 100% of EEPROM - prevents accidental firmware corruption |
| Power-Up Reset Timing | tPURST = 100–280ms - ensures stable VCC and oscillator startup before processor release |
| Low-Voltage Validity | RESET remains valid down to VCC = 1V - guarantees reliable reset assertion even during deep brownout |
| Direct Write™ EEPROM Cell | 100-year data retention and 100,000 write cycles - eliminates need for wear-leveling firmware |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar CPU supervisor with integrated EEPROM applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6369KA27+T | Fixed 2.63V reset threshold; no VTRIP reprogramming; 16Kbit EEPROM; 3.0–5.5V operation | Lacks field-adjustable trip point and half the EEPROM capacity; suitable only for fixed-threshold designs | Select when VTRIP tuning is unnecessary and 16Kbit storage suffices |
| STM8AF6266TCY | MCU with embedded 2Kbyte EEPROM and reset generator; requires firmware development; no standalone supervisor mode | Not a drop-in replacement - demands full software integration and validation effort | Choose only when system already uses STM8 and firmware resources permit custom reset logic |
Compared with MAX6369KA27+T and STM8AF6266TCY, the X5329S8Z-2.7 uniquely combines field-reprogrammable VTRIP, 32Kbit EEPROM, and active-HIGH reset in a pin-compatible 8-SOIC package - enabling rapid deployment without firmware changes or layout revision.

FAQ
What is the factory-programmed VTRIP range for X5329S8Z-2.7?
The X5329S8Z-2.7 is factory-programmed with a VTRIP range of 2.55V to 2.7V, verified per FN8132 Rev 3.00 Page 2 ordering table. This threshold is guaranteed over temperature (0°C to 70°C) and may be reprogrammed higher using the VP pulse sequence on SCK and SI pins - but not lowered without first executing the VTRIP reset procedure.
Does X5329S8Z-2.7 support active-low reset configurations?
No - the X5329S8Z-2.7 provides only active-HIGH RESET output, as indicated by the "RESET ACTIVE HIGH" designation in the ordering information table (Page 2). For active-low reset, Renesas offers the pin-compatible X5328S8Z-2.7 variant, which shares identical EEPROM, VTRIP, and package specifications but asserts RESET/RESET low during fault conditions.
How is EEPROM write protection implemented on X5329S8Z-2.7?
X5329S8Z-2.7 implements three-tier write protection: (1) hardware WP pin + nonvolatile WPEN bit for Status Register lock, (2) volatile Write Enable Latch (WEL) requiring WREN instruction before each write, and (3) nonvolatile BL0/BL1 bits enabling Block Lock™ protection of 0%, 25%, 50%, or 100% of the 32Kbit array - all documented in Pages 6–7 of FN8132.
What is the maximum SPI clock frequency supported by X5329S8Z-2.7?
The X5329S8Z-2.7 supports SPI clock frequencies up to 2MHz, confirmed in the AC Characteristics table (Page 12) and Features list (Page 1). It operates in SPI modes 0,0 and 1,1 only - meaning CPOL = 0/1 and CPHA = 0/1 combinations are supported, but mode 0,1 and 1,0 are not.
Can the VTRIP threshold of X5329S8Z-2.7 be adjusted in-system after soldering?
Yes - the VTRIP threshold of X5329S8Z-2.7 can be reprogrammed in-system using a 15–18V programming voltage (VP) applied to SCK and SI while CS is pulsed LOW/HIGH, as detailed in Figures 1 and 3 (Pages 4–5). This requires no device removal or UV erasure, enabling field calibration without hardware modification.
