Product details
Overview
MAX6318LHUK29CY-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 reset assertion during power-up, brownout, or software hang conditions in embedded control systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6318LHUK29CY-T datasheet, MAX6318LHUK29CY-T pinout, MAX6318LHUK29CY-T application, or MAX6318LHUK29CY-T equivalent, this device delivers guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, immunity to short negative VCC transients, and integrated manual reset input - critical for portable/battery-powered equipment requiring robust power-on sequencing and watchdog supervision.
Technical Context
The MAX6318LHUK29CY-T implements a precision voltage monitor with laser-trimmed internal resistor divider setting VRST = 2.93V (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C), paired with a digital reset timer generating 140ms minimum active-reset duration after VCC recovery. Its watchdog circuit clears on any WDI edge and times out after 1.6s if unserviced.
This variant features both MR (manual reset) and WDI (watchdog input) pins but no bidirectional or open-drain reset output - it uses an active-low CMOS push/pull RESET output capable of sourcing/sinking current, with VOL ≤ 0.3V at ISINK = 1.2mA (VCC ≥ 2.7V) and VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC at ISOURCE = 500µA (VCC ≥ 2.7V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.93V ±2.5% (–40°C to +125°C); ensures reliable detection of VCC brownout below nominal 3.3V rail |
| Reset Timeout | 140ms min; guarantees microprocessor remains held in reset long enough for stable power and clock settling |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s typ; provides sufficient margin to detect firmware hangs without false triggering during normal operation |
| Supply Current | 5µA typ at VCC = 3.6V; enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed systems |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C; supports industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
| VCC Range | 1.0V to 5.5V; allows valid reset assertion even during deep brownout or partial power loss |
| Reset Output Type | Active-low push/pull; eliminates need for external pullup and drives reset line directly into µP reset pin |
Pinout & Package
MAX6318LHUK29CY-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, suitable for 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 |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuitry and reset timing accuracy |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC via 52kΩ; debounced by design (100ns glitch rejection) |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input; edge-sensitive (rising/falling); resets internal timer on transition; disable by leaving floating |
| 5 | VCC | Power supply input; reset asserted when VCC falls below 2.93V; functional down to 1.0V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external components required | Integrated voltage reference, timer, and reset driver eliminate discrete R/C networks and reduce BOM count |
| Guaranteed reset validity to VCC = 1V | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during severe brownout - critical for data retention and safe shutdown |
| Immunity to short negative VCC transients | Withstands ≤4µs, 100mV-under-VTH glitches without spurious reset - improves system resilience in noisy power domains |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Validated for automotive applications including engine control units and body electronics modules |
| Factory-trimmed precision | 2.93V threshold trimmed to ±1.5% at +25°C and ±2.5% over full temperature range - reduces calibration overhead |
Applications
| Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment | Embedded Control Systems |
|---|---|

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 | Lacks watchdog function; identical 2.93V threshold and 140ms reset timeout | Suitable where software hang detection is unnecessary; lower complexity and cost | Select when watchdog supervision adds no value and BOM simplification is prioritized |
| TPS3808G125DBVR | 2.5V reset threshold, 200ms timeout, no manual reset input; TI's nano-power supervisor | Better suited for ultra-low-power IoT sensors; lacks MR and WDI pins | Choose for battery life-critical designs where 2.5V threshold matches system rail and manual reset is omitted |
Compared with MAX6318LHUK29CY-T, MAX6316LUK29CY-T removes watchdog capability while retaining identical reset behavior - ideal for cost-sensitive, non-watchdog applications; TPS3808G125DBVR offers lower quiescent current but sacrifices MR/WDI flexibility and requires redesign for 2.5V threshold alignment.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6318LHUK29CY-T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6318LHUK29CY-T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 2.93V, specified as ±1.5% at +25°C and ±2.5% over the full –40°C to +125°C operating range. Its temperature coefficient is 40ppm/°C, ensuring predictable drift and eliminating need for external calibration in most embedded applications.
Does MAX6318LHUK29CY-T include manual reset and watchdog functionality?
Yes, MAX6318LHUK29CY-T includes both a manual reset (MR) input and a watchdog input (WDI). MR is active-low with internal 52kΩ pullup and 100ns glitch rejection; WDI is edge-triggered and resets the watchdog timer on any rising or falling transition - enabling flexible firmware supervision without additional logic.
What is the reset output configuration of MAX6318LHUK29CY-T and can it drive a standard microcontroller reset pin directly?
MAX6318LHUK29CY-T features an active-low push/pull reset output capable of sinking 1.2mA at VCC ≥ 2.7V (VOL ≤ 0.3V) and sourcing 500µA (VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC). This allows direct connection to standard µP reset inputs - no external pullup resistor or level shifter is required.
How does MAX6318LHUK29CY-T behave during severe VCC brownout - down to what voltage does it guarantee valid reset assertion?
MAX6318LHUK29CY-T guarantees valid reset output down to VCC = 1.0V, meaning the RESET pin remains a well-defined logic low (≤0.3V) even as supply collapses. This ensures deterministic behavior during deep brownout events where other supervisors may release reset prematurely.
Is MAX6318LHUK29CY-T qualified for automotive applications and what packaging options are available?
Yes, MAX6318LHUK29CY-T is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive use. It is supplied in a lead-free 5-pin SOT23 package (U5+2A outline), with top marking "ACDH". The "-T" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging; lead-free versions use "+T" per Maxim ordering conventions.
