Product details
Overview
MAX6318LHUK46BX+T from Maxim Integrated is a 5-pin SOT23 microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-low push/pull reset output, manual reset input (MR), and watchdog timer (WDI). It features a factory-trimmed 4.63V reset threshold, 140ms minimum reset timeout, and 1.6s typical watchdog timeout, designed for reliable power-up/brownout monitoring in embedded control systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6318LHUK46BX+T datasheet, MAX6318LHUK46BX+T pinout, MAX6318LHUK46BX+T application, or MAX6318LHUK46BX+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, immunity to short negative VCC transients, bidirectional reset compatibility (though not applicable to this variant), and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive-adjacent industrial use.
Technical Context
The MAX6318LHUK46BX+T implements a precision voltage monitor with laser-trimmed internal resistor divider setting VRST = 4.63V ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C. Its reset generator asserts active-low RESET for ≥140ms after VCC rises above threshold, and its watchdog circuit triggers reset if WDI remains static beyond 1.6s (typ).
It integrates MR input with 52kΩ internal pullup and glitch rejection (100ns), supports manual reset assertion independent of VCC level, and guarantees VOL ≤ 0.3V at ISINK = 1.2mA (VCC ≥ 2.7V) and VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC at ISOURCE = 500µA - enabling direct interface with 3.3V/5V µPs without external level-shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.63V ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures stable brownout detection for 5V systems with margin against supply ripple. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms minimum - guarantees sufficient hold time for µP initialization before release. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s typical - provides robust software hang detection without excessive system latency. |
| Supply Current | 5µA typ at VCC = 3.6V - enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed or portable applications. |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - allows valid reset assertion even during deep brownout conditions. |
| Reset Output Type | Active-Low, Push/Pull - drives RESET low actively and high actively; no external pullup required. |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +125°C - supports extended industrial and automotive under-hood environments. |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-low push/pull reset output; sinks ≥1.2mA and sources ≥500µA; valid down to VCC = 1V. |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuits and reset timing; must be low-impedance connection. |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC via 52kΩ; accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels. |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input; edge-sensitive (rising/falling); resets internal timer on transition; disable by leaving floating. |
| 5 | VCC | Supply input; monitors voltage for reset assertion; absolute max = +6V; operates down to +1.0V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external components required | Integrated 52kΩ MR pullup, laser-trimmed voltage divider, and push/pull RESET driver eliminate BOM cost and layout area. |
| Guaranteed reset validity to VCC = 1V | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during severe brownout or battery depletion, preventing undefined µP states. |
| Immunity to short negative VCC transients | Withstands ≤4µs, 100mV-under-threshold glitches - avoids spurious resets in noisy power environments. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability (Grade 1: -40°C to +125°C), supporting industrial and transportation applications. |
| Factory-trimmed precision thresholds | 4.63V reset threshold with ±1.5% tolerance at +25°C and ±2.5% over full temperature range - reduces calibration overhead. |
Applications
| Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment | Embedded Control Systems |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Power management in handheld medical devices with Li-ion battery supply subject to voltage sag during peak load. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors VCC and asserts RESET when battery drops below 4.63V; holds reset for 140ms to ensure clean µP restart after recovery. Use Value: Prevents erratic firmware execution during brownout, eliminating data corruption and improving field reliability. | Use Scenario: Industrial PLC module requiring fail-safe startup and runtime watchdog supervision.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6318MHUK46BX+T | Bidirectional active-low RESET output instead of push/pull; includes internal 4.7kΩ pullup + active P-FET for fast rise time. | Required for µPs with bidirectional reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11); incompatible with standard push/pull-only reset inputs. | Select MAX6318MHUK46BX+T only when interfacing with bidirectional-reset µPs; otherwise MAX6318LHUK46BX+T is optimal. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V fixed reset threshold (not adjustable); 200ms reset timeout; no manual reset input; different pinout (5-pin SOT-23 but pin 3 = GND, pin 4 = MR). | Not suitable for 4.63V monitoring or MR-driven reset; lacks WDI watchdog functionality; requires PCB redesign due to pin mismatch. | Use TPS3808G33DBVR only in new designs targeting 3.3V systems without watchdog or manual reset needs. |
Compared with MAX6318MHUK46BX+T, the MAX6318LHUK46BX+T offers simpler push/pull drive and lower system-level timing uncertainty; compared with TPS3808G33DBVR, it provides precise 4.63V threshold, integrated watchdog, and MR support - making it superior for legacy 5V embedded systems requiring full supervisory feature set.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6318LHUK46BX+T?
The MAX6318LHUK46BX+T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 4.63V, with tolerance of ±1.5% at +25°C and ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range (-40°C to +125°C). This value is laser-trimmed during manufacturing and documented in Table 1 of the datasheet.
Does MAX6318LHUK46BX+T include a watchdog timer, and what is its timeout period?
Yes, MAX6318LHUK46BX+T includes a watchdog timer with a typical timeout period of 1.6 seconds. The 'X' in the part number denotes the 102ms/1.6s/25.6s family; per the Selector Guide and Table 3, 'X' corresponds to 1.6s typical. The timer resets on any WDI edge and asserts RESET if no transition occurs within that period.
What is the function of the MR pin on MAX6318LHUK46BX+T, and how should it be used?
The MR (Manual Reset) pin on MAX6318LHUK46BX+T is an active-low input that forces RESET assertion when pulled low. It features an internal 52kΩ pullup to VCC, so it may be left unconnected when unused. A momentary switch to ground provides hardware reset capability without external debouncing components.
Is MAX6318LHUK46BX+T compatible with 3.3V microcontrollers?
Yes, MAX6318LHUK46BX+T operates from VCC = 1.0V to 5.5V and guarantees RESET output performance (VOL ≤ 0.3V, VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC) down to VCC = 2.7V. Its 4.63V reset threshold is intended for 5V systems, but the device itself interfaces cleanly with 3.3V µPs when powered from 3.3V - though reset assertion will then occur at ~3.3V × (4.63/5.0) ≈ 3.05V.
What package type and RoHS status does MAX6318LHUK46BX+T use?
MAX6318LHUK46BX+T uses a 5-pin SOT23 package (outline 21-0057, land pattern 90-0174) with RoHS-compliant lead-free finish. The '+T' suffix explicitly denotes lead-free packaging, and the package code 'U5+2A' confirms this configuration per Maxim's package documentation.
