Product details
Overview
MAX6315US50D2+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 5.0V threshold or upon manual reset assertion. It features a factory-trimmed 5.0V reset threshold (±3.5% over -40°C to +125°C), 20ms minimum reset timeout period, 5μA typical supply current at 5.5V, and operates across -40°C to +125°C. It is used in battery-powered controllers and embedded systems requiring reliable power-on reset and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6315US50D2+T datasheet, MAX6315US50D2+T pinout, MAX6315US50D2+T application, or MAX6315US50D2+T equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, precise timing behavior, SOT23 package details, reset threshold accuracy vs. temperature, and validated alternatives for industrial-grade μP reset supervision.
Technical Context
The MAX6315US50D2+T implements a precision voltage-monitoring comparator with laser-trimmed internal resistive divider to set its 5.0V nominal reset threshold, with ±3.5% tolerance over full temperature range. Its internal timer generates a guaranteed-minimum 20ms reset pulse after VCC recovery or MR deassertion.
It uses an open-drain n-channel MOSFET output stage allowing RESET to be pulled up to any voltage ≤6.0V - including supplies higher than VCC - enabling level-shifted reset signaling. The MR input includes a 63kΩ internal pullup and rejects transients <100ns, eliminating external debounce components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 5.0V nominal, ±3.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable brownout detection across automotive/industrial temperature extremes |
| Reset Timeout Period | 20ms minimum (D2 variant) - guarantees sufficient reset hold time for microcontrollers with slow clock startup |
| Supply Current | 5μA typical at 5.5V, -40°C to +85°C - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors |
| RESET Output Type | Open-drain, capable of sinking 3.2mA at VCC > 4.25V - supports flexible pullup to 3.3V, 5V, or mixed-supply reset buses |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial PLC, and high-reliability embedded applications |
| MR Input Threshold | VIL = 0.8V (VTH > 4.0V), VIH = 2.4V - compatible with standard 3.3V/5V logic without level-shifting |
| VCC Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - functions down to near-fully-depleted battery voltages while maintaining RESET assertion |
Pinout & Package
MAX6315US50D2+T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SOT23 package (package code U4+1), with 1.3mm × 2.9mm footprint and 0.95mm height - optimized for space-constrained portable and modular designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for internal comparator and reset timer; must be connected directly to system ground plane |
| 2 (RESET) | Active-low open-drain output | Drives low during reset; requires external pullup (e.g., 10kΩ) to target supply (≤6V); supports level shifting |
| 3 (MR) | Manual reset input | Logic-low assertion forces RESET active; internal 63kΩ pullup allows NC connection if unused |
| 4 (VCC) | Supply and monitor input | Power source and monitored rail; internal divider senses voltage drop relative to 5.0V threshold |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision factory-trimmed reset threshold | 5.0V ±3.5% over full -40°C to +125°C range - eliminates calibration and reduces BOM count vs. discrete resistor-divider solutions |
| Guaranteed-minimum 20ms reset timeout | Ensures compatibility with μPs requiring ≥16ms reset pulse width (e.g., ARM Cortex-M0+, PIC18F), even at temperature extremes |
| Open-drain RESET with 6V absolute max rating | Enables direct interface to 3.3V, 5V, or 1.8V reset inputs without level shifters - simplifies multi-rail system design |
| Immunity to short VCC transients | Rejects glitches <100ns duration - prevents spurious resets from switching noise or ESD-induced supply dips |
| Ultra-low 5μA supply current | Reduces quiescent power in always-on monitoring circuits - critical for battery-backed real-time clocks and wake-up supervisors |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controller | Automotive Body Control Module |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6314US50D2+T | Same 5.0V threshold and 20ms timeout, but bidirectional reset pin supporting μCs with shared reset/IRQ functionality | Required only when target microcontroller uses reset pin for both reset assertion and interrupt signaling | Select MAX6314US50D2+T only if bidirectional I/O capability is explicitly needed; otherwise MAX6315US50D2+T offers lower cost and simpler layout |
| TPS3808G50DBVR | 5.0V threshold with 20ms timeout, but push-pull RESET output (not open-drain); 2.5V to 6.0V VCC range | Lacks level-shifting capability - cannot drive RESET lines referenced to supplies higher than VCC | Choose TPS3808G50DBVR only in single-supply systems where push-pull drive simplifies termination; MAX6315US50D2+T preferred for multi-rail isolation |
Compared with MAX6314US50D2+T and TPS3808G50DBVR, the MAX6315US50D2+T uniquely combines open-drain level-shifting, ultra-low 5μA quiescent current, and guaranteed 20ms minimum timeout - making it optimal for space- and power-constrained industrial and automotive reset supervision where supply-domain isolation is required.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6315US50D2+T?
The MAX6315US50D2+T has a nominal reset threshold of 5.0V, with guaranteed tolerance of ±3.5% over the full operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. This value is factory-laser-trimmed and specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Reset Threshold (VTH)" with test conditions confirming performance across temperature extremes. The MAX6315US50D2+T does not require external calibration.
Does the MAX6315US50D2+T support level shifting for the RESET output?
Yes, the MAX6315US50D2+T features an open-drain RESET output rated for up to 6.0V, allowing it to be pulled up to a voltage higher than its own VCC supply - for example, pulling RESET to 3.3V while VCC is 5.0V, or vice versa. This enables true level shifting between power domains, a key advantage over push-pull reset supervisors. The MAX6315US50D2+T's datasheet confirms this capability in both Absolute Maximum Ratings and Detailed Description sections.
What is the minimum reset timeout period for the MAX6315US50D2+T?
The MAX6315US50D2+T has a minimum reset timeout period of 20ms, corresponding to the "D2" suffix in its part number. This value is guaranteed over -40°C to +125°C and is validated in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Reset Timeout Period (tRP)" for the MAX6315US__D2-T variant. The MAX6315US50D2+T delivers consistent 20ms hold time regardless of VCC ramp rate or temperature drift.
Can the MR pin of the MAX6315US50D2+T be left unconnected?
Yes, the MR pin of the MAX6315US50D2+T includes an internal 63kΩ pullup resistor, so it may be left floating (no connection) if manual reset functionality is not required. When used, MR accepts logic-low signals down to 0.8V (for VTH > 4.0V) and is immune to transients shorter than 100ns. The MAX6315US50D2+T datasheet explicitly states "Connect to VCC if not used," confirming safe NC operation.
What package type and footprint does the MAX6315US50D2+T use?
The MAX6315US50D2+T uses a 4-pin SOT23 package (Analog Devices package code U4+1), with outline drawing 21-0052 and land pattern 90-0183. Its dimensions are 1.3mm × 2.9mm × 0.95mm, compatible with standard SOT23 pick-and-place equipment and reflow profiles. The MAX6315US50D2+T top mark is HBAA, and the package is RoHS-compliant and lead-free.
