Product details
Overview
MAX6316LUK46BY+ from Maxim Integrated is a 5-pin SOT23 microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-low open-drain reset output, 4.63V factory-trimmed reset threshold, 140ms minimum reset timeout, and 1.6s typical watchdog timeout. It monitors VCC supply integrity, provides manual reset input, and asserts reset during brownout, software hang, or external fault conditions in embedded controllers and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6316LUK46BY+ datasheet, MAX6316LUK46BY+ pinout, MAX6316LUK46BY+ application, or MAX6316LUK46BY+ equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, immunity to sub-4µs negative VCC transients, bidirectional reset compatibility (not applicable-this part uses open-drain), and lead-free RoHS-compliant packaging with +T suffix.
Technical Context
The MAX6316LUK46BY+ implements a precision voltage monitor with ±2.5% reset threshold tolerance over -40°C to +125°C, paired with a watchdog timer that clears on any WDI edge and times out after 1.6s if unserviced. Its open-drain RESET output sinks up to 3.2mA at VCC ≥ 4.5V with VOL ≤ 0.4V, requiring an external pullup resistor to any supply ≤ 6V.
It features a manual reset input (MR) with internal 52kΩ pullup, 100ns glitch rejection, and MR-to-reset propagation delay of 230ns at VCC = 5V. The device draws only 5–12µA supply current at VCC = 3.6V and operates across 1.0V to 5.5V VCC, ensuring reliable supervision even during deep brownout.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.63V ±2.5% - factory-trimmed for precise 4.6V system monitoring; valid across full temperature range |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms minimum - ensures stable µP initialization after power-up or recovery from brownout |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s typical - detects firmware hangs without requiring CPU intervention or external timing components |
| RESET Output Type | Active-Low, Open-Drain - requires external pullup; supports level-shifting to supplies up to 6V |
| Supply Current | 5µA at VCC = 3.6V - enables long battery life in portable equipment and low-power IoT nodes |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - guarantees functional reset assertion down to 1V, critical for ultra-low-voltage brownout detection |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial and automotive under-hood applications |
Pinout & Package
MAX6316LUK46BY+ is housed in a 5-pin SOT23 package (2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm), RoHS-compliant, with lead-free terminations indicated by the "+" suffix. Pin 1 is marked via laser top-side marking (ACDD).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Return path for all internal circuits; must be connected directly to system ground plane |
| WDI | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive input; rising or falling edge resets watchdog timer; left unconnected to disable watchdog |
| MR | Manual reset input | Active-low input; pulled high internally by 52kΩ; logic low forces reset for full tRP duration |
| RESET | Open-drain reset output | Sinks current when asserted; requires external pullup to define logic-high level and voltage domain |
| VCC | Supply voltage input | Monitored power rail; reset asserts when VCC falls below 4.63V; operates down to 1.0V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 4.63V with ±2.5% tolerance over -40°C to +125°C - eliminates need for external resistor divider calibration |
| Open-drain RESET with 6V tolerance | Allows pullup to higher-voltage rails (e.g., 5V or 3.3V) independent of VCC - simplifies mixed-supply system design |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 5µA at 3.6V - extends battery life in always-on portable instrumentation and sensor nodes |
| Immunity to fast VCC transients | Rejects <4µs negative glitches at 100mV under threshold - prevents spurious resets in noisy power environments |
| Guaranteed reset validity to 1V | RESET remains logically valid down to VCC = 1V - ensures deterministic behavior during deep brownout recovery |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controllers | Portable Medical Monitors |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Supervising ARM Cortex-M4-based controller in DIN-rail mounted PLC with 24VDC input and isolated 3.3V logic rail.

Use Value: 1.6s watchdog period aligns with meter firmware task cycle; open-drain output isolates reset domain from metering analog section. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6320PUK46CY+ | Same 4.63V threshold, 140ms reset timeout, and open-drain output; identical SOT23-5 package and pinout | No watchdog function - lacks WDI input and watchdog timer circuitry | Select MAX6320PUK46CY+ only if watchdog capability is unnecessary and lowest BOM cost is prioritized |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V fixed threshold (not adjustable); 200ms reset timeout; push/pull active-low output; no manual reset input | Designed for 3.3V systems only; lacks MR and WDI; requires external pullup only for level-shifted use cases | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR for simple 3.3V-only applications where manual reset and watchdog are not required |
Compared with MAX6320PUK46CY+, MAX6316LUK46BY+ adds watchdog functionality without changing footprint or reset behavior; versus TPS3808G33DBVR, it offers programmable 4.63V threshold, MR input, and watchdog - making it suitable for robust, field-serviceable embedded systems requiring multi-layer fault detection.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6316LUK46BY+ and how tightly is it specified?
The MAX6316LUK46BY+ has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 4.63V, with a guaranteed tolerance of ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range (-40°C to +125°C). This means the actual VRST falls between 4.514V and 4.746V at +25°C, and between 4.514V and 4.746V across temperature - confirmed in Maxim's Electrical Characteristics table under "Reset Threshold (Note 2)".
Does MAX6316LUK46BY+ support manual reset, and how is the MR pin configured?
Yes, MAX6316LUK46BY+ includes a manual reset (MR) input. The MR pin is active-low and features an internal 52kΩ pullup resistor, allowing it to be left unconnected when unused. A logic-low pulse ≥1.5µs (at -40°C to +125°C) forces reset assertion for the full 140ms timeout period. MR rejects transients ≤100ns and is compatible with TTL/CMOS logic levels depending on VCC.
What type of reset output does MAX6316LUK46BY+ provide, and what external components are required?
MAX6316LUK46BY+ provides an active-low, open-drain RESET output. It requires an external pullup resistor to define the logic-high voltage level - typically 4.7kΩ to 10kΩ connected to a supply ≤6V. The output sinks up to 3.2mA at VCC ≥ 4.5V with VOL ≤ 0.4V, enabling direct interfacing with µP nRST inputs across multiple voltage domains.
Is MAX6316LUK46BY+ qualified for automotive applications, and what is its temperature rating?
MAX6316LUK46BY+ is rated for -40°C to +125°C operation and is packaged in RoHS-compliant lead-free SOT23. While it carries the industrial temperature grade, it is not explicitly automotive-qualified (i.e., no /V suffix). For AEC-Q100-compliant designs, consider MAX6316LUK46BY+/V or consult Maxim's automotive-grade variants.
How does the watchdog function work on MAX6316LUK46BY+, and what is its timeout period?
The MAX6316LUK46BY+ watchdog timer times out after 1.6s (typical) if the WDI input remains static - either high or low - for that duration. Any rising or falling edge on WDI resets the timer. Leaving WDI unconnected disables the watchdog feature. The 1.6s timeout is factory-trimmed and stable across temperature, as documented in Table 3 (suffix Y) and Electrical Characteristics.
