Product details
Overview
MAX6316MUK46AY-T from Maxim Integrated is a 5-pin SOT23 microprocessor supervisory circuit with bidirectional active-low reset output, 4.63V 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 - commonly used in industrial controllers and battery-powered instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6316MUK46AY-T datasheet, MAX6316MUK46AY-T pinout, MAX6316MUK46AY-T application, or MAX6316MUK46AY-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its bidirectional reset interface (compatible with Motorola 68HC11), guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, immunity to short negative VCC transients, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive-adjacent designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6316MUK46AY-T implements a dual-stage reset generator with voltage monitoring and watchdog timer logic. Its bidirectional RESET output integrates a 4.7kΩ pullup resistor and active P-channel pullup FET, enabling fast low-to-high transitions (<666ns at 5V/400pF) critical for multi-device reset buses. The internal comparator uses laser-trimmed resistors to set VRST = 4.63V ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C.
Watchdog functionality clears on any WDI edge (rising or falling) with 50ns pulse-width capability; timeout is fixed at 1.6s (Y-suffix). Manual reset (MR) input features 52kΩ internal pullup, 100ns glitch rejection, and 1.5µs minimum pulse width at full temperature range - supporting direct connection to momentary switches without external debouncing.

Applications
| Industrial Controllers | Portable Instrumentation |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: PLC I/O modules operating in harsh factory environments with fluctuating 24VDC supplies converted to 5V logic rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 5V VCC rail and monitors main controller's WDI signal; asserts bidirectional RESET to force safe shutdown on brownout or firmware crash.

Use Value: Immunity to –200ns VCC transients prevents false resets during ignition events; 1.6s watchdog aligns with ISO 16750-2 transient test intervals. | Use Scenario: DIN-rail mounted electricity meters requiring tamper-proof boot integrity and long-term reliability. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises isolated 3.3V microcontroller supply; bidirectional RESET enables secure bootloader verification sequence where MCU pulls line low to confirm reset source. Use Value: Eliminates external pullup resistor and PCB space while ensuring <666ns RESET rise time meets IEC 62056-61 secure boot timing constraints. |
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 | Same 4.63V threshold, 140ms reset timeout, and bidirectional output; differs only in watchdog timeout (1.6s vs. 1.6s - identical Y-suffix) | No functional difference; CY-T denotes same standard version with identical marking (ACDF) and packaging | Select MAX6316MUK46AY-T when ordering from current production lot with AY suffix; CY-T is functionally interchangeable but may reflect prior revision or alternate tape-and-reel configuration |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Fixed 3.3V reset threshold; push/pull (not bidirectional) output; 200ms reset timeout; no manual reset input | Lacks bidirectional reset and MR functionality; unsuitable for 68HC11-style arbitration or field-service reset initiation | Choose only for simple 3.3V systems requiring basic reset supervision without watchdog or manual override |
Compared with MAX6316MUK46CY-T, the MAX6316MUK46AY-T offers identical electrical behavior and pin compatibility; versus TPS3808G33DBVR, it provides essential bidirectional reset arbitration, manual reset input, and precise 4.63V threshold - making it uniquely suited for legacy μP interfaces and multi-source reset buses.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6316MUK46AY-T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6316MUK46AY-T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 4.63V, specified as 4.514V to 4.746V (±2.5%) over the full –40°C to +125°C operating range. This stability is achieved via laser-trimmed internal resistors and is further supported by a 40ppm/°C temperature coefficient, ensuring predictable brownout response in automotive and industrial environments.
Does MAX6316MUK46AY-T support bidirectional reset arbitration, and which microcontrollers is it compatible with?
Yes, MAX6316MUK46AY-T features a true bidirectional active-low RESET output designed specifically for microprocessors with bidirectional reset pins, such as the Motorola 68HC11. Its integrated 4.7kΩ pullup resistor and active P-channel pullup FET enable fast low-to-high transitions (<666ns), allowing the μP to detect whether reset was initiated externally (by the supervisor) or internally (by itself) - a critical requirement for fault-diagnostic boot sequences.
What is the watchdog timeout period of MAX6316MUK46AY-T, and how is it triggered?
The MAX6316MUK46AY-T has a typical watchdog timeout period of 1.6s (Y-suffix), with a guaranteed range of 1.12s to 2.4s. It is triggered when no rising or falling edge occurs on the WDI pin within that interval. The internal timer clears on any WDI transition (minimum 50ns pulse width accepted) or during reset assertion, ensuring reliable detection of software hangs in real-time control firmware.
Can MAX6316MUK46AY-T operate reliably during severe VCC transients, and what is its immunity specification?
Yes, MAX6316MUK46AY-T is immune to short negative-going VCC transients: it will not falsely assert reset for pulses as large as 200ns duration (ground to VCC) or for 100mV undershoots lasting less than 4µs. This immunity is built into the internal voltage monitor architecture and is validated per design - enabling robust operation in electrically noisy environments like automotive and industrial motor control systems.
Is MAX6316MUK46AY-T qualified for automotive applications, and what standards does it meet?
MAX6316MUK46AY-T is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 1: –40°C to +125°C), confirming its suitability for automotive body electronics and ADAS-adjacent systems. It meets stress testing requirements for temperature cycling, humidity, ESD, and mechanical shock - though it is not an automotive-grade part with /V suffix, its qualification supports use in non-safety-critical vehicle subsystems requiring high reliability.
