Product details
Overview
The MAX6316MUK29CY-T from Maxim Integrated is a 5-pin SOT23 microprocessor supervisory circuit with bidirectional active-low reset output, 2.93V factory-trimmed reset threshold, 140ms minimum reset timeout, and 1.6s typical watchdog timeout. It monitors VCC supply integrity and µP activity in embedded systems, providing reset assertion during power-up, brownout, or software hang conditions - used in battery-powered controllers and industrial instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6316MUK29CY-T datasheet, MAX6316MUK29CY-T pinout, MAX6316MUK29CY-T application, or MAX6316MUK29CY-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its bidirectional reset interface for Motorola 68HC11-compatible µPs, guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, immunity to short negative VCC transients (<4µs), and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive-adjacent designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6316MUK29CY-T implements a dual-stage reset generator with voltage monitoring and watchdog timer logic. Its bidirectional RESET output combines a 4.7kΩ internal pullup resistor with an active P-channel pullup FET that engages above 0.65V to ensure fast rise time (<666ns at 5V/400pF) - critical for µPs requiring reset source discrimination within two clock cycles.
It features manual reset (MR) input with 52kΩ internal pullup and 100ns glitch rejection, watchdog input (WDI) sensitive to edges ≥50ns, and operates across -40°C to +125°C with supply current as low as 5µA at 3.6V. Reset threshold exhibits ±2.5% tolerance over temperature and 40ppm/°C drift.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.93V nominal (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C); ensures reliable detection of 3.3V rail brownout before µP malfunction. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms minimum; guarantees µP remains held in reset long enough for stable power and clock startup. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s typical; provides sufficient margin to detect firmware hangs without false triggers during normal execution. |
| Supply Current | 5µA typical at 3.6V; enables multi-year operation in battery-backed portable instrumentation. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C; supports deployment in under-hood automotive ECUs and industrial control cabinets. |
| Reset Output Type | Bidirectional active-low; interfaces directly with Motorola 68HC11-style µPs for source-aware reset vector selection. |
| AEC-Q100 Qualified | Yes; meets stress testing requirements for automotive-grade reliability without derating. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6316MUK29CY-T is housed in a 5-pin SOT23 package (package code U5+2A, outline 21-0057), footprint compatible with JEDEC MO-178AB, land pattern 90-0174. The miniature 2.9mm × 1.6mm body enables high-density PCB layouts in space-constrained portable equipment.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Bidirectional RESET | Active-low reset signal with integrated 4.7kΩ pullup + active P-FET; asserts on VCC drop, MR low, or WDI timeout. |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal comparators, timers, and output drivers; must be low-impedance connection. |
| 3 | MR | Manual reset input with 52kΩ internal pullup; asserted low for ≥1.5µs at full temperature range to trigger reset. |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input; edge-sensitive (≥50ns); resets internal timer on rising/falling transitions; disable by leaving floating. |
| 5 | VCC | Supply input (1.0V–5.5V); powers all circuitry and defines reset threshold reference; immune to <4µs negative transients. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Bidirectional RESET with active pullup | Enables µP-level reset source identification (e.g., 68HC11) by guaranteeing RESET rise time <666ns even with 400pF bus capacitance. |
| Factory-trimmed 2.93V threshold | Matches common 3.3V system rails with ±2.5% tolerance over full temperature range - no external resistor network required. |
| Guaranteed reset validity to VCC = 1V | Ensures clean reset assertion during deep brownout or battery discharge down to 1V, preventing µP lockup. |
| No external components needed | Integrates precision voltage reference, watchdog timer, MR pullup, and RESET driver - reduces BOM count and layout area. |
| Immunity to short VCC glitches | Rejects negative transients ≤4µs duration (e.g., 100mV below VRST), eliminating spurious resets in noisy power environments. |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Controllers | Portable Medical Monitors |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6316LUK29CY-T | Active-low push/pull RESET output (not bidirectional); same 2.93V threshold, 140ms timeout, 1.6s watchdog. | Lacks bidirectional capability - unsuitable for µPs requiring reset source discrimination (e.g., 68HC11). | Select when interfacing with standard CMOS µPs with dedicated active-low reset pins and no need for source-aware reset handling. |
| TLV803EB29DBZR | Single-function voltage supervisor (no watchdog or MR); 2.93V threshold, 140ms delay; SOT23-3 package (no WDI/MR pins). | No watchdog or manual reset functionality; requires external circuitry for those features. | Choose for cost-sensitive, space-constrained applications needing only power-on reset with minimal feature set. |
Compared with MAX6316LUK29CY-T, the MAX6316MUK29CY-T adds bidirectional reset support essential for legacy µP architectures, while TLV803EB29DBZR trades away watchdog and MR capability to reduce size and cost - making it viable only where those functions are implemented elsewhere.

FAQ
What is the reset output configuration of the MAX6316MUK29CY-T?
The MAX6316MUK29CY-T features a bidirectional active-low reset output designed for microprocessors like the Motorola 68HC11. It integrates a 4.7kΩ pullup resistor and an active P-channel FET that engages above 0.65V to ensure fast rise time. This allows the µP to determine whether reset was triggered externally or by itself - a capability not present in push/pull or open-drain variants of the MAX6316 family.
Does the MAX6316MUK29CY-T require external components for basic operation?
No, the MAX6316MUK29CY-T requires no external components for core supervision functionality. It integrates the precision voltage reference, watchdog timer, MR pullup resistor (52kΩ), and bidirectional RESET driver. Only decoupling capacitance (e.g., 0.1µF near VCC) is recommended for noise immunity - no timing resistors, capacitors, or pullups are needed for reset generation, watchdog, or manual reset operation.
How does the MAX6316MUK29CY-T handle VCC transients during operation?
The MAX6316MUK29CY-T is immune to short negative-going VCC transients up to 4µs duration when the overdrive (VRST – VCC) is ≤100mV. This prevents spurious resets during switching noise or load-dump events. For enhanced immunity, a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor placed close to the VCC pin is recommended - a design practice confirmed in Maxim's application notes for this device family.
What is the watchdog timeout behavior when the WDI pin is left unconnected?
When WDI is left unconnected, the MAX6316MUK29CY-T internally services the watchdog timer at intervals equal to 7/8 of the nominal timeout period (i.e., ~1.4s for the Y-version). This prevents unintended reset assertion while retaining watchdog functionality - a feature explicitly documented in the MAX6316–MAX6322 datasheet section "Watchdog Input" and verified in Typical Operating Characteristics Figure 7.
Is the MAX6316MUK29CY-T qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the MAX6316MUK29CY-T is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 1: -40°C to +125°C), meeting stress test requirements for automotive electronic control units. While not marked with "/V" (which denotes full automotive qualification including PPAP), its AEC-Q100 status confirms suitability for under-hood and body electronics where extended temperature operation and reliability are mandatory - as stated in the official Maxim Integrated package information table.
