The DS1706ESA+T is a robust, high-precision microcontroller supervisory circuit, designed and manufactured by Maxim Integrated. This component provides essential monitoring and control functions for microprocessor systems, ensuring reliable operation and safeguarding against system failures. The DS1706ESA+T is a versatile solution for a wide range of applications, including computers, controllers, intelligent instruments, and critical microprocessor systems.
Key Features
- Power-Fail Input: The device includes a power-fail input that monitors the supply voltage (VCC) and triggers an early warning if the voltage drops below a predetermined threshold, allowing the system to prepare for power failure.
- Reset Output: It provides an active-low reset output that ensures the microprocessor starts up in a known state, thereby preventing code execution errors during power-up, power-down, and brown-out conditions.
- Watchdog Timer: A built-in watchdog timer prevents system lock-up by resetting the microprocessor if it fails to stroke the watchdog within a set time frame.
- Low Power Consumption: The DS1706ESA+T is designed for low power consumption, making it suitable for battery-powered applications.
- High Accuracy: This supervisory circuit offers high threshold accuracy, providing reliable monitoring and ensuring system stability.
Technical Specifications
- Voltage Monitoring Range: 2.5V, 3.0V, 3.3V, or 5.0V
- Package/Case: 8-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width)
- Operating Temperature: -40°C to +85°C
- RoHS Compliant
The DS1706ESA+T comes in a small 8-pin SOIC package, making it ideal for space-constrained environments. It is also fully compliant with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS), ensuring it meets the latest environmental standards for electronic components.
