Product details
Overview
X5329S8Z-4.5A 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 drops below 4.5–4.75 V, supports 2.7–5.5 V operation, consumes <1 µA standby current, and features reprogrammable VTRIP for precision brownout detection in microcontroller-based embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the X5329S8Z-4.5A datasheet, X5329S8Z-4.5A pinout, X5329S8Z-4.5A application, or X5329S8Z-4.5A equivalent, this device serves as a system-level power integrity and nonvolatile configuration manager - critical for reliable boot sequencing, firmware parameter storage, and voltage-fail recovery in industrial controllers and IoT edge nodes.
Technical Context
The X5329S8Z-4.5A implements dual-function supervision: a power-on reset circuit activates RESET at ~1 V and holds it active for 200 ms after VCC stabilizes, while its low-VCC detector asserts RESET when VCC falls below the factory-set 4.5–4.75 V trip point and releases it only after VCC exceeds that threshold for 200 ms. The integrated SPI EEPROM operates at up to 2 MHz with page-write capability and Block Lock™ protection covering 0%, 25%, 50%, or 100% of the 32Kbit array.
Its SPI interface complies with modes 0,0 and 1,1, uses MSB-first data transfer, and requires WREN instruction before any write. The WP pin-when paired with the nonvolatile WPEN bit-enables in-circuit programmable ROM mode, locking status register writes until hardware intervention occurs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VTRIP Range | 4.5 V to 4.75 V - precise brownout detection window for 5 V systems |
| RESET Polarity | Active HIGH - directly interfaces with microcontrollers requiring high-asserted reset input |
| EEPROM Size | 32 Kbit (4 KB) - stores boot parameters, calibration data, or device identity without external memory |
| Standby Current | <1 µA at VCC = 5.5 V - enables battery-backed operation for >10 years in low-power applications |
| SPI Clock Max | 2 MHz - supports fast configuration reads during boot without timing bottlenecks |
| Supply Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - compatible with regulated 5 V rails and tolerant of nominal 5 V ±10% variation |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - CS | Chip Select Input | Enables SPI communication when LOW; places device in standby when HIGH |

Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Reprogrammable VTRIP | Allows field adjustment of reset threshold voltage using VP programming pulses on SCK/SI - eliminates need for BOM changes when fine-tuning brownout behavior |
| Block Lock™ Protection | Nonvolatile BL0/BL1 bits enable selective write-protection of 0%, 25%, 50%, or 100% of EEPROM - prevents accidental corruption of critical firmware parameters |
| Power-Up Reset Timing | Guaranteed 200 ms minimum RESET assertion after VCC stabilization - ensures oscillator and power rail readiness before MCU execution |
| Low-Voltage Validity | RESET remains valid down to VCC = 1 V - provides robust fail-safe signaling even during deep brownout conditions |
| Direct Write™ EEPROM Cell | 100,000 write cycles endurance and 100-year data retention - suitable for long-life industrial deployments with infrequent but critical updates |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6361KA29+T | Fixed 2.93 V reset threshold; no VTRIP reprogramming; 16 Kbit EEPROM; 3.0–5.5 V supply | Lacks adjustable trip point and half-size memory - suitable only for fixed-threshold 3.3 V designs | Select when VTRIP tuning is unnecessary and EEPROM capacity ≤16 Kbit suffices |
| STM8AF6266TCY | MCU with embedded 2 Kbyte EEPROM and reset supervisor; requires external firmware development; 2.95–5.5 V | Integrates processing capability but adds software validation burden and lacks dedicated supervisor timing guarantees | Select when system requires local decision-making (e.g., adaptive reset delay) and design team owns firmware stack |
Compared with MAX6361KA29+T and STM8AF6266TCY, the X5329S8Z-4.5A delivers application-specific precision (reprogrammable 4.5–4.75 V trip), larger 32 Kbit EEPROM, and guaranteed 200 ms reset timeout - making it optimal for 5 V industrial systems where deterministic supervision and field-configurable brownout response are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the reset polarity and assertion condition for the X5329S8Z-4.5A?
The X5329S8Z-4.5A features an active-HIGH RESET output that asserts when VCC falls below the programmed 4.5–4.75 V trip point or during power-up. It remains asserted until VCC rises above the trip threshold and stabilizes for 200 ms. This behavior is confirmed in the FN8132 datasheet Section "Principles of Operation" and Table on Page 14 specifying VTRIP and tPURST.
Can the reset voltage threshold of the X5329S8Z-4.5A be modified after manufacturing?
Yes, the X5329S8Z-4.5A supports field reprogramming of its VTRIP voltage using a defined VP pulse sequence applied to SCK and SI pins while CS and WP are held HIGH. The procedure allows raising the trip point within the 1.7–5.0 V range and is documented in Figures 1 and 3 of the FN8132 datasheet.
How much EEPROM memory does the X5329S8Z-4.5A provide, and what protection mechanisms are available?
The X5329S8Z-4.5A integrates 32 Kbit (4 KB) of SPI EEPROM with Block Lock™ protection. Users can protect 0%, 25%, 50%, or 100% of the array via nonvolatile BL0/BL1 bits in the Status Register, and further secure Status Register writes using the WP pin combined with the WPEN bit - enabling in-circuit programmable ROM mode.
What is the maximum SPI clock frequency supported by the X5329S8Z-4.5A, and which modes are compatible?
The X5329S8Z-4.5A supports SPI clock frequencies up to 2 MHz and operates in SPI modes 0,0 and 1,1. Data is transferred MSB-first, with SI latching on the rising SCK edge and SO driving on the falling SCK edge. These timing characteristics are specified in the "A.C. CHARACTERISTICS" table on Page 12 of the FN8132 datasheet.
Does the X5329S8Z-4.5A meet RoHS compliance requirements, and what is its package outline?
Yes, the X5329S8Z-4.5A is RoHS-compliant with Pb-free plus anneal termination (e3 finish), per Notes 2 and 3 in the Ordering Information table. Its package is an 8-lead narrow-body SOIC (M8.15E), with dimensions and land pattern detailed on Page 18 of the FN8132 datasheet.
