Product details
Overview
The MAX6315US31D3-T from Analog Devices 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 3.08V or when manual reset (MR) is asserted. It guarantees reset assertion for ≥140ms after recovery, draws only 5μA at 5.5V, and operates across -40°C to +125°C in a 4-pin SOT23 package - used in battery-powered controllers and industrial μP systems requiring reliable brownout detection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6315US31D3-T datasheet, MAX6315US31D3-T pinout, MAX6315US31D3-T application, or MAX6315US31D3-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its factory-trimmed 3.08V reset threshold, 140ms minimum timeout, open-drain output compatible with supplies up to 6V, guaranteed operation over temperature, and immunity to short VCC transients.
Technical Context
The MAX6315US31D3-T implements a precision voltage-monitoring comparator with laser-trimmed internal resistors to set a nominal 3.08V reset threshold, with ±3.5% tolerance over -40°C to +125°C and 60ppm/°C tempco. Its internal timer generates a fixed reset timeout period of ≥140ms (min) after VCC rises above threshold or MR deasserts.
It features an open-drain n-channel MOSFET RESET output capable of sinking 3.2mA at VCC > 4.25V while allowing pullup to voltages up to 6V - enabling level-shifting between monitored and reset-logic supplies. The MR input includes a 63kΩ internal pullup and rejects glitches <100ns.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.08V nominal, ±3.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable brownout detection for 3.3V systems. |
| Reset Timeout Period | ≥140ms (min) - holds μP in reset long enough for stable power-up sequencing. |
| Supply Current | 5μA typical at 5.5V - enables multi-year battery life in portable equipment. |
| Operating Temp Range | -40°C to +125°C - supports automotive under-hood and industrial control environments. |
| RESET Output Type | Open-drain, 6V max pullup - allows interface with higher-voltage logic or level-shifted reset domains. |
| MR Input Logic | Active-low with 63kΩ internal pullup - eliminates external components for manual reset implementation. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6315US31D3-T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SOT23 package (outline 21-0052), with 1.3mm × 2.9mm footprint and 0.95mm height. Pin 1 = GND, Pin 2 = RESET, Pin 3 = MR, Pin 4 = VCC.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Return path for internal circuitry and RESET sink current; must be low-impedance. |
| RESET | Active-low open-drain output | Sinks current when asserted; requires external pullup to define logic-high level (0–6V). |
| MR | Manual reset input | Active-low trigger; internally pulled up to VCC; debounced via 100ns glitch rejection. |
| VCC | Supply and monitor input | Powers device and provides voltage reference for reset threshold detection. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed 3.08V threshold | Eliminates external resistor network and calibration, reducing BOM count and layout area in 3.3V systems. |
| 140ms minimum reset timeout | Ensures sufficient hold time for slow-ramping power supplies and complex μP initialization sequences. |
| 5μA supply current | Minimizes quiescent drain on coin-cell or Li-ion backup supplies in always-on monitoring applications. |
| Open-drain RESET with 6V tolerance | Enables direct interfacing with 5V or 3.3V μP reset inputs even when monitoring lower VCC rails. |
| MR internal 63kΩ pullup | Supports momentary switch-to-GND implementation without external biasing components. |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controllers | Battery-Powered Data Loggers |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 3.3V domain and asserts RESET during brownouts caused by load switching or EMI. Use Value: Prevents corrupted firmware execution and I/O misstates using guaranteed -40°C to +125°C operation and 3.08V threshold aligned to 3.3V system margin. | Use Scenario: Remote environmental sensors powered by AA batteries with infrequent wake-up cycles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides ultra-low-power supply supervision during sleep mode and ensures clean reset on wake-up. Use Value: 5μA ICC extends battery life beyond 5 years; 140ms timeout accommodates slow LDO stabilization after cold start. |
| Medical Point-of-Care Devices | Automotive Body Control Modules |
Use Scenario: Handheld diagnostic tools requiring FDA-grade reliability and rapid power-cycle recovery. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Generates deterministic reset pulse upon battery insertion or USB power connect. Use Value: Factory-trimmed 3.08V threshold avoids calibration drift; open-drain RESET interfaces cleanly with mixed-voltage SoC reset domains. | Use Scenario: Under-dash modules exposed to wide ambient temperature swings and load-dump transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 3.3V microcontroller supply derived from automotive 12V rail. Use Value: Immunity to <100ns noise spikes and ±3.5% threshold tolerance ensure no false resets during cranking or alternator ripple. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar supervisory circuit applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6314US31D3-T | Bidirectional reset pin support; identical 3.08V threshold and 140ms timeout. | Required for μCs with shared reset/input pins; not needed for standard active-low reset inputs. | Select MAX6314US31D3-T only if target microcontroller uses bidirectional reset I/O. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V threshold (±0.5%), 200ms timeout, 1.5μA ICC, SOT23-5 package. | Higher accuracy threshold but longer timeout and extra pin; requires PCB redesign. | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR only when tighter threshold tolerance (±0.5% vs ±3.5%) is critical and layout allows 5-pin SOT23. |
Compared with MAX6314US31D3-T, the MAX6315US31D3-T offers simpler integration for unidirectional reset systems; versus TPS3808G33DBVR, it trades threshold accuracy for lower cost, smaller footprint, and proven transient immunity in noisy industrial settings.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6315US31D3-T?
The MAX6315US31D3-T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 3.08V, with tolerance of ±3.5% over the full -40°C to +125°C operating range and a temperature coefficient of 60ppm/°C. This value is laser-trimmed during manufacturing and does not require external calibration.
Does the MAX6315US31D3-T require external components for basic operation?
No, the MAX6315US31D3-T requires only an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin for normal operation. It includes an internal 63kΩ pullup on MR and needs no external resistors for threshold setting or timing - making it a true single-component solution for μP reset supervision.
Can the RESET output of the MAX6315US31D3-T be pulled up to a voltage higher than VCC?
Yes, the MAX6315US31D3-T features an open-drain RESET output rated for up to 6V, allowing it to be pulled up to a voltage higher than VCC (e.g., 5V while monitoring a 3.3V rail). This enables level-shifting between different supply domains without additional interface circuitry.
What is the minimum reset timeout period specified for the MAX6315US31D3-T?
The MAX6315US31D3-T is configured with a minimum reset timeout period of 140ms, guaranteed over -40°C to +125°C. Typical values range from 200ms to 280ms depending on temperature, ensuring sufficient hold time for power supply stabilization and μP initialization.
Is the MAX6315US31D3-T suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the MAX6315US31D3-T is qualified for operation from -40°C to +125°C and features immunity to short VCC transients (<100ns), making it suitable for automotive body control modules and other under-hood applications where thermal stress and electrical noise are present.
