Product details
Overview
MAX6316LUK46CY+T from Maxim Integrated is a 5-pin SOT23 microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-low push/pull reset output, 4.63V 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 and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6316LUK46CY+T datasheet, MAX6316LUK46CY+T pinout, MAX6316LUK46CY+T application, or MAX6316LUK46CY+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, immunity to short negative VCC transients (<4µs at 100mV under threshold), bidirectional reset compatibility (via internal active pullup), and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive-adjacent industrial use.
Technical Context
The MAX6316LUK46CY+T implements a precision voltage monitor with laser-trimmed resistive divider setting VRST = 4.63V ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C, combined with a digital reset timer generating a fixed 140ms minimum assertion period after VCC recovery. Its watchdog circuit responds to WDI edge transitions with 1.6s typical timeout, cleared on any rising or falling edge - not level detection.
This variant belongs to the MAX6316L series: it features an active-low push/pull RESET output (not open-drain or bidirectional), includes both MR and WDI inputs, and guarantees VOL ≤ 0.3V at ISINK = 1.2mA (VCC ≥ 2.7V) and VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC at ISOURCE = 500µA (VCC ≥ 2.7V). Reset propagation delay tRD is 40µs when VCC falls at 1mV/µs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.63V ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable detection of 5V rail brownout before system instability |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms minimum - holds processor in reset long enough for power stabilization and clock settling |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s typical - provides sufficient margin to detect firmware hangs without false triggers during normal operation |
| Supply Current | 5µA typical at VCC = 3.6V - enables battery-powered operation for >10 years in low-duty-cycle monitoring |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - supports valid reset assertion even during deep brownout, down to near-fully discharged Li-ion cells |
| Reset Output Type | Active-low push/pull - drives RESET line directly without external pullup; sinks 1.2mA, sources 500µA |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial control, and extended-temperature computing |
Pinout & Package
MAX6316LUK46CY+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 gull-wing leads optimized for automated reflow assembly and high-density PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET (active-low) | CMOS push/pull output; asserts logic low during VCC undervoltage, MR assertion, or watchdog timeout - no external pullup required |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal comparators, timers, and output drivers; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 3 | MR (active-low) | Manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC via 52kΩ resistor; 1µs minimum pulse width; rejects 100ns glitches |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input; edge-triggered (rising/falling); clears internal timer on transition; disable by leaving unconnected or three-stating |
| 5 | VCC | Supply input; monitored for reset generation; absolute max rating -0.3V to +6V; operates down to 1.0V with guaranteed reset behavior |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external components required | Integrated voltage reference, reset timer, watchdog counter, and push/pull driver eliminate need for RC networks, discrete transistors, or pullup resistors |
| Guaranteed reset validity to VCC = 1V | Ensures deterministic reset state during severe brownout - critical for flash write integrity and SRAM retention in portable systems |
| Immunity to short VCC transients | Rejects <4µs negative spikes at 100mV below VRST - prevents spurious resets from switching noise or load dump events |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability (Grade 1: -40°C to +125°C), including HTOL, temperature cycling, and ESD testing per JESD22 |
| Factory-trimmed precision | 4.63V threshold trimmed to ±1.5% at +25°C and ±2.5% over full temperature range - eliminates calibration overhead in production |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6316MUK46CY+T | Bidirectional active-low RESET output with integrated 4.7kΩ pullup + P-channel active pullup; same 4.63V threshold, 140ms timeout, 1.6s watchdog | Required when interfacing with Motorola 68HC11 or other µPs with bidirectional reset pins needing fast rise time under capacitive load | Select MAX6316MUK46CY+T only if target µP demands bidirectional reset signaling; otherwise MAX6316LUK46CY+T's push/pull output simplifies layout and reduces external part count. |
| TLV809E46DBZR | Single-supply supervisor with 4.63V threshold and 140ms timeout, but no watchdog or manual reset; SOT23-3 package (3 pins, no WDI/MR) | Suitable only for basic power-monitoring applications where firmware hang detection and user-initiated reset are unnecessary | Choose TLV809E46DBZR only for cost-sensitive, space-constrained designs lacking watchdog requirements; MAX6316LUK46CY+T adds robustness via dual fault-detection paths. |
Compared with MAX6316MUK46CY+T, MAX6316LUK46CY+T offers simpler integration for standard push/pull reset interfaces and eliminates bidirectional timing constraints; versus TLV809E46DBZR, it delivers critical system-level resilience through independent watchdog and manual reset channels - essential for safety-critical or field-upgradable devices.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6316LUK46CY+T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6316LUK46CY+T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 4.63V, specified as ±1.5% at +25°C and ±2.5% over the full operating range of -40°C to +125°C. Its temperature coefficient is 40ppm/°C, meaning drift is bounded and predictable - for example, at +125°C, VRST remains within 4.514V to 4.746V per datasheet Table 1. This stability ensures consistent brownout detection across automotive and industrial thermal profiles.
Does MAX6316LUK46CY+T require external components to function?
No, MAX6316LUK46CY+T requires zero external components for core operation: its precision voltage reference, reset timer, watchdog counter, and push/pull RESET driver are fully integrated. Unlike discrete solutions, it needs no RC network for timeout setting, no pullup resistor for RESET, and no external debouncing for MR - reducing BOM count, board area, and qualification effort while improving reliability.
How does the watchdog feature of MAX6316LUK46CY+T differ from simple timeout-based reset ICs?
The MAX6316LUK46CY+T watchdog is edge-triggered - it clears on *any* rising or falling transition at the WDI pin, not on level maintenance. This prevents false resets during software stalls where WDI might float or remain static. With a 1.6s typical timeout, it detects infinite loops or task deadlocks while tolerating brief delays in WDI servicing - unlike basic timeout supervisors that reset if WDI stays high/low beyond threshold.
Can MAX6316LUK46CY+T operate reliably during severe supply brownout conditions?
Yes, MAX6316LUK46CY+T guarantees valid RESET output behavior down to VCC = 1.0V - far below its 4.63V threshold. Its push/pull driver maintains VOL ≤ 0.3V at ISINK = 1.2mA even at 1.0V supply, ensuring clean logic-low assertion to hold the microprocessor in reset until power recovers. This capability is critical for preserving flash memory integrity and preventing partial writes during battery depletion.
Is MAX6316LUK46CY+T compatible with modern lead-free PCB assembly processes?
Yes, MAX6316LUK46CY+T is supplied in lead-free packaging (indicated by the "+T" suffix) and rated for reflow soldering up to +260°C per JEDEC J-STD-020. Its SOT23-5 package (U5+2A) is compatible with standard stencil printing, pick-and-place, and convection reflow profiles - and has been validated for thermal cycling and intermetallic growth resistance in automotive-grade manufacturing lines.
