Product details
Overview
MAX6316LUK29BX-T from Maxim Integrated is a 5-pin SOT23 microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-low push/pull reset output, 2.93V factory-trimmed reset threshold, 140ms minimum reset timeout, and 1.6s typical watchdog timeout. It monitors VCC supply integrity and provides manual reset and watchdog functionality for embedded microcontroller systems requiring reliable power-on/brownout reset assertion.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6316LUK29BX-T datasheet, MAX6316LUK29BX-T pinout, MAX6316LUK29BX-T application, or MAX6316LUK29BX-T equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, exact pin functions, real-world use cases in battery-powered and industrial control systems, and validated alternative parts with documented functional differences.
Technical Context
The MAX6316LUK29BX-T integrates a precision voltage detector with ±1.5% threshold accuracy at +25°C (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C), a 140ms reset timeout generator, and a 1.6s watchdog timer cleared by WDI edge transitions. Its push/pull reset output guarantees valid logic levels down to VCC = 1V and sinks up to 3.2mA at 4.5V.
It features a dedicated manual reset input (MR) with internal 52kΩ pullup, 100ns glitch rejection, and 230ns MR-to-reset delay at 5V; the watchdog input (WDI) accepts 50ns pulses and draws ≤160µA average current when actively serviced.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.93V nominal (factory-trimmed), ±2.5% over full temperature range - ensures accurate brownout detection for 3.3V systems. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms minimum - holds reset asserted long enough for microcontroller power stabilization and clock lock. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s typical - provides robust software hang detection without excessive system interruption. |
| Supply Current | 5µA typical at 3.6V - enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed applications. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - supports automotive and industrial environments without derating. |
| Reset Output Type | Active-low, push/pull - drives reset line directly without external pullup; sinks 3.2mA at 4.5V. |
| VCC Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - guarantees reset validity during deep brownout conditions down to 1V supply. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6316LUK29BX-T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 5-pin SOT23 package (package code U5+2A, outline 21-0057), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm, with thermal resistance θJA = 255.9°C/W on multilayer board.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-low push/pull reset output; asserts low when VCC < 2.93V, MR low, or watchdog times out; deasserts after 140ms timeout. |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuitry and reset output sink path. |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC via 52kΩ; 100ns glitch rejection prevents false triggers. |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input; reset triggered if no rising/falling edge occurs within 1.6s; accepts 50ns pulses. |
| 5 | VCC | Supply input; powers device and serves as monitored rail; reset asserted when VCC falls below 2.93V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 2.93V with ±2.5% tolerance over -40°C to +125°C - eliminates external resistor network and calibration effort. |
| Guaranteed reset validity to VCC = 1V | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during severe brownout, preventing undefined MCU states. |
| No external components required | Integrates voltage reference, timing circuits, and push/pull driver - reduces BOM count and PCB area. |
| Immunity to short negative VCC transients | Rejects ≤4µs, 100mV-under-threshold glitches - avoids spurious resets in noisy power environments. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Validated for automotive applications per stress test requirements - supports under-hood and infotainment use. |
Applications
| Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment | Embedded Control Systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6316LUK29DZ-T | Same 2.93V threshold and 140ms reset timeout, but 25.6s watchdog period instead of 1.6s. | Suitable for systems requiring longer watchdog intervals (e.g., low-duty-cycle sensor nodes). | Select when extended watchdog supervision is needed; otherwise, MAX6316LUK29BX-T offers tighter timing control. |
| TLV803EB29DBZR | 2.93V threshold, 140ms reset timeout, no watchdog or manual reset; SOT23-3 package (no WDI/MR pins). | Limited to basic supply monitoring without software supervision or user-initiated reset. | Choose only for cost-sensitive, watchdog-free designs where MR functionality is unnecessary. |
Compared with MAX6316LUK29DZ-T and TLV803EB29DBZR, the MAX6316LUK29BX-T uniquely balances precise 140ms reset hold time with 1.6s watchdog supervision and full manual reset support in a single 5-pin SOT23, making it optimal for resource-constrained embedded controllers needing both power and software fault coverage.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6316LUK29BX-T?
The MAX6316LUK29BX-T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 2.93V, with tolerance of ±1.5% at +25°C and ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range (-40°C to +125°C). This value is confirmed in Table 1 and Standard Versions table of the official datasheet, and corresponds to the "29" suffix in the part number.
Does the MAX6316LUK29BX-T include a watchdog timer, and what is its timeout period?
Yes, the MAX6316LUK29BX-T includes a watchdog timer with a typical timeout period of 1.6 seconds, indicated by the "X" in the "BX" suffix. The watchdog is cleared by any rising or falling edge on the WDI pin and asserts reset if unattended for ≥1.6s. This is explicitly defined in the Selector Guide and Electrical Characteristics tables.
What type of reset output does the MAX6316LUK29BX-T provide, and how is it configured?
The MAX6316LUK29BX-T provides an active-low, push/pull reset output (pin 1), as designated by the "L" in the part number prefix. It sources and sinks current without requiring an external pullup resistor, delivering VOL ≤ 0.4V at 3.2mA sink load and VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC when sourcing 500µA - fully specified in the Electrical Characteristics section.
What is the minimum reset timeout period for the MAX6316LUK29BX-T, and how is it set?
The MAX6316LUK29BX-T has a fixed minimum reset timeout period of 140ms, denoted by the "C" in the "UK29C" portion of the part number. This value is factory-programmed and non-adjustable; it defines the minimum duration RESET remains low after VCC rises above 2.93V or after MR release, ensuring sufficient MCU initialization time.
Is the MAX6316LUK29BX-T qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the MAX6316LUK29BX-T is AEC-Q100 qualified, as explicitly stated in the Benefits and Features section of the datasheet. It operates across -40°C to +125°C, meets automotive stress test requirements, and is suitable for under-hood and infotainment applications where reliability under thermal and electrical stress is critical.
