Key Features
- Fixed 2.6 V reset threshold monitors supply rail and asserts reset during undervoltage and power-up conditions
- 3-pin SOT-23 (TO-236) package occupies minimal PCB area for single-channel microprocessor supervisory functions
- Tape-and-reel packaging supports automated high-volume SMT assembly in cost-sensitive embedded designs
Applications
The MIC803-26D2VM3TR is used in microcontroller-based embedded systems to ensure clean power-on reset and brownout recovery, preventing erratic code execution during supply voltage transients. It suits IoT sensors, portable instruments, and industrial control modules where a 2.6 V reset threshold aligns with low-voltage 3.3 V rail supervision. The 3-pin SOT-23 package minimizes board space consumption in space-constrained designs requiring reliable reset supervision.

Frequently Asked Questions
At what voltage threshold does the MIC803-26D2VM3TR assert a reset signal?
The MIC803-26D2VM3TR has a fixed reset threshold of 2.6 V, meaning it asserts the active-low reset output whenever the monitored supply drops below 2.6 V. This threshold is well-suited for supervising 3.3 V microcontroller supply rails in IoT nodes and embedded instruments where brownout conditions below 2.6 V can cause unpredictable code execution.
How does MIC803-26D2VM3TR ensure reliable microcontroller startup in a battery-powered embedded system?
The MIC803-26D2VM3TR holds the microcontroller's reset line low during power-up until the supply exceeds 2.6 V and remains stable, preventing the MCU from starting with insufficient supply voltage. This is critical in battery-powered systems where supply ramp rates may be slow; without a supervisor, the MCU might execute code from a random program counter position before the supply is fully established.
What PCB footprint does the MIC803-26D2VM3TR require and how does it compare to a discrete RC reset circuit?
The MIC803-26D2VM3TR fits in a 3-pin SOT-23 (TO-236) package measuring approximately 2.9 mm x 1.3 mm, which is smaller than a discrete R-C-diode reset network while providing a precise 2.6 V threshold. A discrete RC reset circuit requires 3 to 5 components with temperature-dependent timing; the MIC803-26D2VM3TR replaces all of them with a single calibrated IC, improving reliability and reducing assembly cost.
In which applications is the MIC803-26D2VM3TR's fixed 2.6 V threshold more appropriate than an adjustable supervisor?
The MIC803-26D2VM3TR's fixed 2.6 V threshold is optimal for high-volume designs where all units use the same 3.3 V supply rail and the 2.6 V brownout point is pre-qualified. Industrial sensor hubs, smart meter modules, and consumer IoT gateways benefit from the simpler 3-pin BOM with no external resistor dividers, lower unit cost compared to adjustable supervisors, and reduced PCB area on cost-sensitive boards.
