Product details
Overview
MAX6315US25D1 from Maxim Integrated is a low-power, open-drain microprocessor reset supervisor IC that monitors VCC supply voltage and asserts an active-low RESET signal when VCC falls below 2.50V (±3.5% over temperature), with a guaranteed minimum reset timeout period of 1ms. It features a 4-pin SOT143 package, 5µA typical supply current at +25°C, internal MR pullup resistor (~63kΩ), and operates across –40°C to +125°C. It is used in portable battery-powered equipment for reliable power-on reset and brownout detection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6315US25D1 datasheet, MAX6315US25D1 pinout, MAX6315US25D1 application, or MAX6315US25D1 equivalent, key selection considerations include its factory-trimmed 2.50V reset threshold, 1ms minimum timeout, open-drain output capable of level-shifting above VCC, immunity to short VCC transients, and compatibility with µP systems requiring manual reset input and guaranteed operation over extended temperature range.
Technical Context
The MAX6315US25D1 implements a precision voltage-monitoring comparator with laser-trimmed resistive divider to detect VCC falling below 2.50V, triggering an internally timed reset pulse. Its open-drain RESET output uses an n-channel MOSFET switch, enabling pullup to voltages up to +6.0V - independent of VCC - supporting level-shifted reset signaling across multiple supply domains.
It integrates a debounced manual reset input (MR) with internal 63kΩ pullup, allowing direct connection of a momentary switch to GND without external components. The device's reset timeout timer restarts on every VCC dip below threshold and remains asserted for ≥1ms after VCC recovers, ensuring robust immunity to sub-millisecond transients per the Maximum Transient Duration vs. Comparator Overdrive curve.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VTH Nominal | 2.50V - Factory-trimmed reset threshold with ±3.5% tolerance over –40°C to +125°C ensures accurate brownout detection for 2.5V logic systems. |
| tRP Min | 1ms - Minimum guaranteed reset timeout period prevents premature release of µP reset during slow-rising VCC or marginal power recovery. |
| ICC | 5µA typical at +25°C - Ultra-low quiescent current extends battery life in portable and always-on monitoring applications. |
| RESET Output | Open-drain n-MOS - Enables pullup to any voltage ≤+6.0V, allowing reset assertion across different supply domains (e.g., 3.3V µP reset by 2.5V-supervised IC). |
| MR Input | Internal 63kΩ pullup - Eliminates need for external pullup; supports direct switch-to-GND manual reset with no debounce circuitry required. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - Qualified for automotive under-hood, industrial control, and high-reliability embedded environments. |
| VCC Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - Ensures valid reset assertion down to 1.0V VCC, guaranteeing fail-safe behavior even during deep brownout or power collapse. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6315US25D1 is housed in a 4-pin SOT143 (also referenced as U4+1 / SOT-143B) surface-mount package with 1.3mm pitch, JEDEC MO-178 compliant footprint, and RoHS-compliant lead-free finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GND) | Ground reference | System ground return path for internal comparator and reset timer; must be low-impedance to ensure accurate threshold sensing. |
| 2 (RESET) | Active-low open-drain output | Sinks current when asserted; requires external pullup resistor (e.g., 10kΩ) to target reset rail (≤+6.0V); floats high when deasserted. |
| 3 (MR) | Manual reset input | Logic-low active input; internally pulled up to VCC (~63kΩ); asserts reset immediately and holds it for full tRP after release. |
| 4 (VCC) | Supply and monitor input | Power source and monitored voltage node; internal laser-trimmed divider derives 2.50V threshold reference from this pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision factory-set VTH | 2.50V ±3.5% over full temperature range eliminates calibration and reduces BOM count versus adjustable reset ICs. |
| Guaranteed 1ms reset timeout | Ensures µP reset remains asserted long enough for stable clock and supply establishment, even under worst-case VCC ramp conditions. |
| Open-drain RESET with >VCC capability | Enables single reset supervisor to drive reset lines of multiple ICs powered from different rails (e.g., 2.5V supervisor driving 3.3V µP). |
| Immunity to short VCC transients | Rejects glitches ≤1µs wide (at 100mV overdrive), preventing spurious resets in noisy or switching-power-supply environments. |
| Integrated MR pullup | Removes need for external pullup resistor, saving PCB area and reducing component count in space-constrained portable designs. |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6314US25D1-T | Push-pull (active-high) RESET output; same 2.50V threshold, 1ms timeout, and SOT143 package. | Requires direct connection to µP reset pin expecting active-high signal; incompatible with open-drain bus architectures or level-shifting needs. | Select only if target µP has dedicated active-high reset input and no shared reset bus. |
| TPS3808G12DBVR | Adjustable threshold (via external resistor divider); 1.2V to 5.5V range; 20ms default timeout; SOT-23-5 package. | Lacks factory-trimmed precision and fixed 2.50V point; requires two external resistors; higher quiescent current (12µA typical). | Choose when design requires flexible threshold tuning or board space permits SOT-23-5; not drop-in for MAX6315US25D1 due to pin count and topology mismatch. |
Compared with MAX6315US25D1, MAX6314US25D1 offers identical supervision specs but lacks level-shifting capability, while TPS3808G12DBVR trades precision and simplicity for configurability and higher power - making MAX6315US25D1 optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained 2.5V systems demanding guaranteed timing and open-drain interoperability.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage and tolerance for MAX6315US25D1?
The MAX6315US25D1 has a nominal reset threshold voltage of 2.50V, with a guaranteed tolerance of ±3.5% over the full operating temperature range of –40°C to +125°C. This specification is factory-laser-trimmed and confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Reset Threshold (Note 1)" for the D1 temperature grade. The MAX6315US25D1 does not use adjustable resistors - its threshold is fixed and unchangeable.
Does MAX6315US25D1 support manual reset, and how is it implemented?
Yes, MAX6315US25D1 includes a dedicated Manual Reset (MR) input on Pin 3. It is logic-low active and features an internal 63kΩ pullup resistor to VCC, allowing direct connection of a momentary switch to GND without external components. When MR is pulled low, MAX6315US25D1 asserts RESET immediately and holds it for the full 1ms timeout period after MR returns high - providing fully debounced manual reset functionality.
Can the RESET output of MAX6315US25D1 be pulled up to a voltage higher than its VCC supply?
Yes, the RESET output of MAX6315US25D1 is an open-drain n-channel MOSFET capable of being pulled up to any voltage between 0V and +6.0V - including voltages higher than the IC's own VCC. This enables level-shifting applications, such as using a 2.5V-supervised MAX6315US25D1 to assert reset on a 3.3V or 5V microprocessor. The absolute maximum rating for RESET is +6.0V, and sink current is specified up to 20mA.
What is the supply current consumption of MAX6315US25D1 across temperature and voltage?
The MAX6315US25D1 draws 5µA typical supply current at +25°C and VCC = 3.6V, with a maximum of 12µA over –40°C to +85°C and 15µA over –40°C to +125°C. Current remains stable across VCC from 1.0V to 5.5V, as verified in the "Supply Current vs. Supply Voltage" and "Supply Current vs. Temperature" graphs (Figures MAX6315-01 and MAX6315-02). This ultra-low ICC makes MAX6315US25D1 ideal for battery-backed and energy-harvesting systems.
Is MAX6315US25D1 pin-compatible with other members of the MAX6315 family or legacy parts?
Yes, all MAX6315 variants - including MAX6315US25D1 - share identical 4-pin SOT143 pinout (VCC, MR, RESET, GND) and are pin-compatible with the industry-standard MAX811 series. This allows direct substitution in existing layouts when upgrading to tighter thresholds, longer timeouts, or extended temperature grades - provided the reset logic polarity (open-drain active-low) and electrical interface remain compatible with the host system.
