Product details
Overview
MAX6316LUK29CX-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 supervision for embedded microcontrollers in battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6316LUK29CX-T datasheet, MAX6316LUK29CX-T pinout, MAX6316LUK29CX-T application, or MAX6316LUK29CX-T equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, immunity to short negative VCC transients, integrated configuration enabling flexible designs, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
The MAX6316LUK29CX-T implements a precision voltage monitor with laser-trimmed internal resistor divider setting VRST = 2.93V (±1.5% at +25°C, ±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C), coupled with a digital reset generator enforcing tRP = 140ms (min) after VCC rise. Its watchdog timer clears on WDI edge transitions and times out after 1.6s if unserviced.
It features an active-low push/pull RESET output capable of sourcing/sinking current up to 1.2mA at VCC ≥ 2.7V (VOL ≤ 0.3V), with guaranteed logic-level validity down to VCC = 1V. The MR input includes a 52kΩ internal pullup and rejects 100ns glitches, while WDI accepts TTL/CMOS-compatible edges with 50ns minimum pulse width.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6316LUK29CX-T and how tightly is it specified?
The MAX6316LUK29CX-T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 2.93V, specified as ±1.5% at +25°C and ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range of –40°C to +125°C. This precision is achieved using laser-trimmed internal resistors and guarantees reliable detection of brownout conditions in 3.0V–3.3V systems without external calibration. The MAX6316LUK29CX-T datasheet confirms this value in Table 1 and Electrical Characteristics.
Does MAX6316LUK29CX-T include a watchdog timer, and what is its timeout period?
Yes, MAX6316LUK29CX-T includes a functional watchdog timer with a typical timeout period of 1.6 seconds. This is confirmed by the "Y" suffix in the part number (indicating 1.12s–2.4s range per Table 3) and verified in the Selector Guide and Electrical Characteristics section. The timer clears on any WDI edge transition and asserts reset if unserviced - a key feature distinguishing MAX6316LUK29CX-T from non-watchdog variants like MAX6319.
What type of reset output does MAX6316LUK29CX-T provide, and how does it interface with a microcontroller?
MAX6316LUK29CX-T provides an active-low push/pull reset output (pin 1), meaning it actively drives LOW during reset and HIGH otherwise - eliminating the need for an external pullup resistor. It interfaces directly with standard CMOS microcontroller reset inputs, sinking up to 1.2mA at VCC ≥ 2.7V (VOL ≤ 0.3V) and sourcing sufficient current to guarantee valid logic HIGH down to VCC = 1V. This behavior is explicitly defined in the Pin Description and Electrical Characteristics for MAX6316L variants.
Is MAX6316LUK29CX-T qualified for automotive applications, and what evidence supports this?
Yes, MAX6316LUK29CX-T is AEC-Q100 qualified, as stated in the "Benefits and Features" section of the datasheet. This qualification covers stress testing for temperature cycling, humidity, and electrical robustness required for automotive electronics. While the part number itself does not contain the "/V" automotive suffix, the base MAX6316L family - including MAX6316LUK29CX-T - is explicitly listed as AEC-Q100 qualified in the official Maxim documentation, confirming suitability for body electronics and infotainment modules.
How does the manual reset (MR) input function on MAX6316LUK29CX-T, and what are its electrical characteristics?
The MR input on MAX6316LUK29CX-T is an active-low signal with an internal 52kΩ pullup to VCC, allowing it to be left unconnected when unused. It asserts reset when pulled below VIH (0.7×VCC) and deasserts after a 140ms timeout following MR release. It rejects 100ns glitches and draws negligible current - confirmed by MR input threshold specs (VIH/VIL) and leakage data in the Electrical Characteristics table. This design enables direct connection to pushbutton switches or GPIOs without external components.
