Product details
Overview
MAX6318LHUK48BX+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 4.8V reset threshold, 140ms minimum reset timeout, and 25.6s typical watchdog timeout. Designed for brownout protection and system recovery in embedded controllers and portable equipment.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6318LHUK48BX+T datasheet, MAX6318LHUK48BX+T pinout, MAX6318LHUK48BX+T application, or MAX6318LHUK48BX+T equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, immunity to short negative VCC transients (<4µs at 100mV under threshold), bidirectional reset compatibility support (though not implemented on this variant), and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive-adjacent industrial use.
Technical Context
The MAX6318LHUK48BX+T integrates a precision voltage detector, reset generator with fixed 140ms timeout, and watchdog timer with 25.6s timeout (Z-suffix). Its MR input is internally pulled up (52kΩ) and accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels; WDI detects edges to clear the watchdog counter. Reset assertion occurs when VCC falls below 4.8V ±2.5% over temperature or when MR is pulled low.
This variant belongs to the MAX6318LH subfamily: active-low push/pull RESET output (not bidirectional or open-drain), no manual reset (MR pin absent per Selector Guide), and watchdog enabled (W-suffix confirmed by 'X' in part number - per Table 3, 'X' = 102ms, but 'B' in 'LHUK48B' indicates 140ms reset timeout; 'X' in 'BX' maps to 102ms watchdog - cross-referenced with Selector Guide row MAX6318LH: ✔ under WATCHDOG INPUT, - under MANUAL RESET INPUT, ✔ under ACTIVE-LOW PUSH/PULL).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.8V ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable power-fail detection across automotive-grade temperature range |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms (min) - holds reset long enough for microprocessor power stabilization and clock settling |
| Watchdog Timeout | 102ms (typ) - fast response to firmware hangs in real-time control loops |
| Supply Current | 5µA (typ) at VCC = 3.6V - enables multi-year battery operation in portable systems |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - guarantees reset assertion integrity even during deep brownout conditions |
| Reset Output Type | Active-Low, Push/Pull - drives reset line directly without external pullup; sinks 1.2mA at VCC ≥ 2.7V |
| Package | SOT23-5 (U5+2A) - 2.9mm × 1.6mm footprint saves space in compact PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
MAX6318LHUK48BX+T uses a 5-pin SOT23 package (outline 21-0057, land pattern 90-0174) with RoHS-compliant lead-free finish (+T suffix). Pin 1 is RESET (active-low push/pull), Pin 2 is GND, Pin 3 is unused (no MR), Pin 4 is WDI, Pin 5 is VCC.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-low CMOS push/pull output; asserts reset until VCC rises above 4.8V and 140ms elapses |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal comparators and reset timing circuits |
| 3 | No Connect | Unbonded pad - no internal connection; must be left floating or grounded per layout best practice |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input; edge-sensitive (rising/falling); resets watchdog timer on transition; unconnected disables watchdog |
| 5 | VCC | Supply input; powers internal circuitry and defines reset threshold reference; absolute max = +6V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No External Components Required | Integrated voltage reference, timing RC, and reset generator eliminate need for discrete R/C networks or external supervisors |
| Guaranteed Reset Validity to VCC = 1V | Ensures clean, monotonic reset deassertion even during severe undervoltage - critical for flash programming safety |
| Immunity to Short Negative VCC Transients | Withstands ≤4µs, 100mV-under-threshold glitches without spurious reset - avoids false triggers in noisy power environments |
| AEC-Q100 Qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability (Grade 2: -40°C to +105°C ambient), supporting industrial and transportation applications |
| Factory-Trimmed Precision Threshold | 4.8V threshold trimmed to ±1.5% at +25°C and ±2.5% over full temperature range - eliminates calibration overhead |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controller | Automotive Body Control Module |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Monitors 5V supply rail in programmable logic controller during cold-cranking events where battery voltage dips to 6–7V. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervisory circuit asserting active-low reset to ARM Cortex-M7 MCU until VCC stabilizes above 4.8V and remains valid for 140ms.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6318MHUK48BX+T | Bidirectional active-low RESET output (not push/pull); includes internal 4.7kΩ pullup + active P-FET | Required for interfacing with Motorola 68HC11 or other µPs needing bidirectional reset handshaking | Select only if target MCU requires bidirectional reset signaling; otherwise MAX6318LHUK48BX+T offers lower cost and simpler layout |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V fixed reset threshold; 200ms reset timeout; no watchdog; SOT23-6 package | Lacks watchdog functionality and adjustable threshold - suitable only for basic power-monitoring without firmware supervision | Choose when watchdog is unnecessary and 3.3V rail monitoring suffices; avoid if 4.8V threshold or 102ms watchdog is required |
Compared with MAX6318MHUK48BX+T, the MAX6318LHUK48BX+T provides simpler push/pull drive and lower quiescent current but lacks bidirectional handshake capability; versus TPS3808G33DBVR, it delivers precise 4.8V threshold and integrated watchdog - essential for safety-critical or firmware-resilient designs.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6318LHUK48BX+T and how does it vary with temperature?
The MAX6318LHUK48BX+T has a nominal reset threshold of 4.8V, factory-trimmed to ±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 - critical for systems operating across wide ambient conditions without recalibration.
Does MAX6318LHUK48BX+T include a manual reset (MR) input?
No, MAX6318LHUK48BX+T does not include a manual reset input. Per the Selector Guide and Pin Description, MAX6318LH variants omit MR functionality - Pin 3 is unconnected. Reset is triggered solely by VCC falling below 4.8V or by watchdog timeout on WDI; no external MR signal path exists.
What is the watchdog timeout period for MAX6318LHUK48BX+T and how is it configured?
The MAX6318LHUK48BX+T features a 102ms typical watchdog timeout period ('X' suffix per Table 3). It is factory-programmed and non-adjustable. The watchdog timer clears on any rising or falling edge at WDI (Pin 4); leaving WDI unconnected disables the watchdog function entirely.
Can MAX6318LHUK48BX+T operate reliably during severe supply brownouts?
Yes, MAX6318LHUK48BX+T guarantees valid reset output down to VCC = 1V - well below its 4.8V threshold. This ensures the reset signal remains asserted and noise-immune even during deep brownouts, preventing partial initialization or undefined MCU states before full power recovery.
Is MAX6318LHUK48BX+T compatible with automotive applications?
Yes, MAX6318LHUK48BX+T is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 2: -40°C to +105°C ambient), making it suitable for automotive body electronics, infotainment power domains, and other non-engine-compartment applications requiring automotive reliability standards and traceable manufacturing.
