Product details
Overview
MAX6315US29D3-T from Analog Devices is a low-power CMOS microprocessor supervisory circuit that monitors VCC supply voltage and asserts an open-drain reset signal when voltage falls below 2.93V or upon manual reset assertion. It features a factory-trimmed 2.93V reset threshold, 140ms minimum reset timeout period, 5μA supply current at +25°C, and operates across -40°C to +125°C for use in battery-powered controllers and industrial μP systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6315US29D3-T datasheet, MAX6315US29D3-T pinout, MAX6315US29D3-T application, or MAX6315US29D3-T equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed reset assertion below 2.93V ±3.5% over temperature, immunity to sub-100ns MR glitches, open-drain RESET output compatible with pullup voltages up to +6V, and SOT23-4 package compatibility with space-constrained embedded designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6315US29D3-T implements a precision voltage-monitoring comparator with laser-trimmed internal resistive divider to set its 2.93V nominal reset threshold, with ±3.5% tolerance over -40°C to +125°C. Its internal timer generates a fixed 140ms (min) reset timeout after VCC recovery or MR deassertion.
It uses an open-drain n-channel MOSFET for RESET output, enabling level-shifting across supplies (e.g., VCC = 3.3V, pullup = 5V), and includes a 63kΩ internal MR pullup resistor with 1μs minimum pulse width requirement and 100ns glitch rejection capability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.93V ±3.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable brownout detection for 3V systems |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms (min) - guarantees sufficient processor initialization time after power recovery |
| Supply Current | 5μA at +25°C, VCC = 5.5V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered devices |

Pinout & Package
MAX6315US29D3-T is housed in a 4-pin SOT23 package (package code U4+1), with 1.3mm × 2.9mm footprint and 0.95mm height - optimized for high-density PCB layouts in portable electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| RESET (Pin 2) | Active-low open-drain output | Sinks current when asserted; requires external pullup (e.g., 10kΩ) to any supply ≤6V |
| MR (Pin 3) | Manual reset input | Logic-low active; internally pulled up to VCC via 63kΩ; debounced by design |
| VCC (Pin 4) | Supply and monitor input | Powers device and provides voltage reference for reset threshold detection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar supervisory circuit applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6315US29D2-T | Same 2.93V threshold but 20ms (min) reset timeout vs. 140ms | Suitable for faster-boot μCs where shorter reset hold time is acceptable | Select when system initialization completes in <25ms and longer timeout risks unnecessary delay |
| TPS3808G12DBVR | 2.93V threshold, 200ms (typ) timeout, 1.4μA ICC, SOT23-5 package | Includes watchdog timer not present in MAX6315US29D3-T; requires one extra pin | Choose if system requires both reset supervision and watchdog functionality in same footprint family |
Compared with MAX6315US29D2-T and TPS3808G12DBVR, the MAX6315US29D3-T delivers the longest standard timeout (140ms min) in the MAX6315 family without added complexity, making it optimal for legacy or resource-constrained μPs needing robust brownout recovery without watchdog overhead.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6315US29D3-T?
The MAX6315US29D3-T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 2.93V, with tolerance of ±2.5% over -40°C to +85°C and ±3.5% over -40°C to +125°C. This value is laser-trimmed during manufacturing and specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of the official Analog Devices datasheet. The MAX6315US29D3-T does not require external calibration or resistor networks to achieve this accuracy.
Does the MAX6315US29D3-T support operation below 2.5V?
Yes, the MAX6315US29D3-T operates down to 1.0V supply voltage per its Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics, though its 2.93V reset threshold means it will assert reset whenever VCC drops below that level. At VCC < 1.0V, the device may not reliably sink RESET current; however, the RESET output remains valid down to VCC = 1.0V with 0.3V VOL at 80μA sink current.
Can the RESET output of the MAX6315US29D3-T be pulled up to 5V while VCC is at 3.3V?
Yes, the MAX6315US29D3-T RESET pin is open-drain and rated for voltages up to +6.0V, allowing it to be pulled up to 5V even when VCC = 3.3V. This enables level-shifting between different supply domains. The internal n-channel MOSFET can safely sink current from the 5V pullup, provided the sink current stays within 20mA absolute maximum rating.
What is the minimum pulse width required on the MR pin for reliable reset assertion in the MAX6315US29D3-T?
The MR input of the MAX6315US29D3-T requires a minimum logic-low pulse width of 1μs to guarantee reset assertion. Additionally, the device rejects glitches shorter than 100ns, providing inherent noise immunity. No external debounce circuitry is needed when using a momentary switch tied to GND, thanks to the internal 63kΩ pullup resistor and integrated filtering.
Is the MAX6315US29D3-T RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the MAX6315US29D3-T is RoHS-compliant and lead-free, indicated by the "+T" suffix in its ordering code and confirmed in Analog Devices' Package Information documentation. The SOT23 package carries a "+" symbol denoting RoHS status, and the device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements for surface-mount assembly.
