Product details
Overview
MAX6315US30D2 from Maxim Integrated is a low-power CMOS microprocessor supervisory circuit that monitors VCC supply voltage and asserts an open-drain active-low RESET signal when voltage falls below 3.00V or when manual reset (MR) is asserted. It features a factory-trimmed 3.00V reset threshold, 20ms minimum reset timeout period, 5µA supply current, and SOT143 package. It is used in portable/battery-powered equipment for reliable power-on reset and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6315US30D2 datasheet, MAX6315US30D2 pinout, MAX6315US30D2 application, or MAX6315US30D2 equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy (±3.5% over temperature), open-drain output compatibility with supplies up to +6V, immunity to sub-1µs VCC transients, and guaranteed operation from -40°C to +125°C.
Technical Context
The MAX6315US30D2 implements a precision voltage-monitoring comparator with laser-trimmed internal resistors to set the 3.00V nominal reset threshold, with ±3.5% tolerance over -40°C to +125°C. Its internal timer generates a fixed 20ms (min) reset timeout after VCC rises above threshold or MR deasserts.
It uses an open-drain n-channel MOSFET for the RESET output, enabling level-shifting across supply domains (e.g., monitoring 3.3V while pulling up to 5V). The MR input includes a 63kΩ internal pull-up and accepts logic-low pulses ≥1µs to trigger reset, with 100ns glitch rejection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.00V nominal, ±3.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable detection of 3.3V rail brownout before µP malfunction. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 20ms minimum - guarantees sufficient hold time for microcontroller initialization after power recovery. |
| Supply Current | 5µA typical at +25°C - enables use in always-on battery-backed systems without significant drain. |
| RESET Output Type | Open-drain, rated to 6V - allows pull-up to higher-voltage rails (e.g., 5V) independent of monitored VCC (3.3V). |
| MR Input Behavior | Internal 63kΩ pull-up; logic-low active; 1µs minimum pulse width - eliminates need for external debounce components. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - supports industrial and automotive under-hood applications without derating. |
| VCC Operating Range | 2.5V to 5.5V - compatible with 3.3V and 5V systems, with reset assertion guaranteed down to VCC = 1V. |
Pinout & Package
SOT143 (4-pin, surface-mount) package with gull-wing leads, 1.3mm pitch, 2.9mm × 1.5mm footprint, and -40°C to +125°C operating range.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for internal circuitry and RESET sink current; must be connected directly to system ground plane. |
| 2 (RESET) | Active-low open-drain output | Sinks current when asserted; requires external pull-up resistor (e.g., 10kΩ) to target supply (≤6V); floats high otherwise. |
| 3 (MR) | Manual reset input | Logic-low active; internally pulled up to VCC via 63kΩ; debounced internally - no external RC needed. |
| 4 (VCC) | Supply and monitor input | Power source and voltage-sense node; monitors its own supply; reset asserts if VCC drops below 3.00V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 3.00V with ±3.5% tolerance over full temperature range - eliminates calibration and reduces BOM count. |
| Open-drain RESET output | Rated to 6V - enables interoperability between 3.3V monitoring and 5V reset logic without level translators. |
| Four timeout options | 20ms minimum (this variant) - matches typical µP reset timing requirements without external timing components. |
| Immunity to short VCC transients | Rejects glitches <100ns - prevents spurious resets during switching noise or ESD events. |
| Low quiescent current | 5µA typical - extends battery life in portable instrumentation and remote sensors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage and tolerance for MAX6315US30D2?
The MAX6315US30D2 has a nominal reset threshold of 3.00V, with a tolerance of ±3.5% over the full operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. This specification is factory-laser-trimmed and verified per the Electrical Characteristics table in the official MAX6315 datasheet (Rev 3, 12/05), ensuring consistent brownout detection across environmental stress.
Does MAX6315US30D2 support manual reset functionality, and how is it implemented?
Yes, MAX6315US30D2 includes a dedicated manual reset (MR) input (Pin 3) that is logic-low active. It features an internal 63kΩ pull-up resistor, so the pin can be left floating if unused. When pulled low via a momentary switch to GND, it asserts RESET for the full 20ms timeout period - no external debounce circuitry is required due to built-in 100ns glitch rejection.
Can the RESET output of MAX6315US30D2 be pulled up to a voltage higher than VCC?
Yes, the RESET output of MAX6315US30D2 is an open-drain n-channel MOSFET rated to 6.0V. It can be pulled up to any voltage between 0V and +6V - including supplies higher than the monitored VCC (e.g., pull-up to 5V while monitoring a 3.3V rail). This enables level-shifting in multi-rail systems without additional translators.
What is the minimum reset timeout period specified for MAX6315US30D2, and is it guaranteed over temperature?
The MAX6315US30D2 specifies a minimum reset timeout period of 20ms, guaranteed over the full -40°C to +125°C temperature range. Typical characterization shows normalized timeout variation within ±3% across temperature (per Figure MAX6315-04), making it suitable for timing-critical µP initialization sequences in industrial and automotive applications.
Is MAX6315US30D2 pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX6315 family or industry alternatives?
MAX6315US30D2 is pin-compatible with all MAX6315 variants in the SOT143 package (e.g., MAX6315US30D1-T, MAX6315US30D3-T), sharing identical Pin 1 (GND), Pin 2 (RESET), Pin 3 (MR), and Pin 4 (VCC) assignments. It is also pin-compatible with the MAX811 series, enabling drop-in replacement where 3.00V threshold and 20ms timeout meet system requirements.
