What the ADM693ARZ does on a 5 V board
The ADM693ARZ monitors a single supply rail and asserts a reset when the voltage drops to 4.4 V.
Reset output flexibility — active-high and active-low, open-drain and push-pull
This supervisor gives you both active-high and active-low reset outputs, each configurable as open-drain or push-pull. That covers the two common processor reset schemes — an active-low push-pull for most ARM and x86 cores, or an active-high open-drain for a wired-OR reset bus shared with other supervisors. No external pull-up or inverter needed for either case.
Housed in a 16-pin SOIC with a 7.50 mm body width (the wide-body SOIC-16), surface-mount only. Not rated for the full military range, but the industrial grade handles the environments most embedded systems see.
Lifecycle and compliance — no redesign pressure
No end-of-life notice on the horizon, no lead-free exemption expiry to track.
