Product details
Overview
MAX6320PUK30BW-T from Maxim Integrated is a 5-pin SOT23 microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-low open-drain reset output, manual reset input, and watchdog timer. It features a factory-trimmed 3.0V reset threshold (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C), 140ms minimum reset timeout, and 1.6s typical watchdog timeout. Designed for brownout protection and system recovery in battery-powered embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6320PUK30BW-T datasheet, MAX6320PUK30BW-T pinout, MAX6320PUK30BW-T application, or MAX6320PUK30BW-T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, SOT23-5 terminal mapping, real-world use cases in portable instrumentation and industrial control, and two validated alternative parts with documented functional differences.
Technical Context
The MAX6320PUK30BW-T implements a voltage-monitoring architecture with internal precision voltage divider and comparator to assert reset when VCC falls below 3.0V ±2.5%. Its open-drain RESET output requires an external pullup resistor (e.g., 10kΩ) and supports interface with multiple supply domains up to 6V.
It integrates a watchdog timer cleared by rising/falling edges on WDI, with four factory-programmable timeout options - this part uses the 'Y' variant (1.12s to 2.4s, typ 1.6s). Manual reset is enabled via MR pin with internal 52kΩ pullup and 100ns glitch rejection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.00V ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable power-on reset at nominal 3.0V rail without external calibration |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms (min) - guarantees sufficient hold time for microcontroller initialization after power stabilization |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s (typ), range 1.12–2.4s - provides robust software hang detection for mid-speed embedded firmware |
| Supply Current | 5µA (typ) at VCC = 3.6V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered devices |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial ambient environments |
| Package | SOT23-5 (U5+2A) - 2.9mm × 1.6mm footprint with 0.95mm height, compatible with standard reflow profiles |
| AEC-Q100 Qualified | Yes - meets stress testing requirements for automotive electronics (Grade 1) |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-5 package (outline 21-0057, land pattern 90-0174), RoHS-compliant, lead-free option available as MAX6320PUK30BW+T.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET (open-drain) | Active-low reset output; sinks current only - requires external pullup to any voltage ≤6V; asserts during VCC undervoltage, MR low, or watchdog timeout |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal comparators and logic - must be connected directly to system ground plane |
| 3 | MR | Manual reset input; active-low with internal 52kΩ pullup - debounced internally; 100ns glitch rejection prevents spurious resets |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input; edge-sensitive - rising or falling edge clears timer; unconnected = auto-serviced every ~1.4s (7/8 × tWD) |
| 5 | VCC | Power supply input; monitors voltage from 1.0V to 5.5V - reset guaranteed valid down to VCC = 1V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Open-drain RESET with 0.4V VOL @ 3.2mA | Enables level-shifting across mixed-voltage systems (e.g., 3.3V supervisor driving 5V µP reset line) |
| Factory-trimmed 3.0V threshold (±2.5%) | Eliminates need for external resistor divider or calibration in 3.0V/3.3V applications |
| 140ms reset timeout (C-suffix) | Matches typical boot-time requirements of ARM Cortex-M0/M3 and PIC18F microcontrollers |
| 1.6s watchdog timeout (Y-suffix) | Optimized for firmware loops executing every 500ms–1s, providing margin against timing jitter |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive cabin and engine-control module deployment without additional qualification effort |
Applications
| Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment | Embedded Control Systems |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Coin-cell–powered wireless sensor node operating intermittently for >5 years. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 3.0V LDO output; asserts open-drain RESET to hold MCU in reset until stable power is confirmed post-wake. Use Value: 5µA quiescent current extends battery life; 140ms timeout ensures full LDO settling before firmware execution. |
Use Scenario: Industrial PLC I/O module with dual 3.3V/5V rails and watchdog-critical firmware. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors primary 3.0V logic rail; open-drain RESET pulled up to 5V enables direct interface with 5V-compatible FPGA configuration logic. Use Value: Level-flexible reset signaling avoids level translators; AEC-Q100 rating supports extended temperature operation in uncooled enclosures. |
| Intelligent Instruments | Controllers |
|
Use Scenario: Handheld multimeter with auto-ranging ADC and LCD driver requiring clean power-up sequencing. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Generates reset pulse synchronized to 3.0V analog supply stabilization; MR pin used for front-panel hard-reset button. Use Value: Internal MR pullup eliminates external components; 100ns glitch rejection prevents false triggers from ESD events near buttons. |
Use Scenario: HVAC zone controller using 8-bit MCU with limited internal reset supervision. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides independent watchdog monitoring of main loop; WDI driven by GPIO toggled at known intervals in firmware main task. Use Value: 1.6s watchdog timeout allows safe margin for communication delays while preventing infinite hangs from UART timeouts or sensor faults. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6320PUK30DY-T | Same 3.0V threshold, same SOT23-5 package, but D-suffix = 1.12s reset timeout (vs. C-suffix = 140ms) | Requires longer reset assertion - unsuitable where fast MCU boot is critical (e.g., real-time data loggers) | Select only if system demands >1s reset hold time; verify compatibility with target µP's minimum reset pulse width spec. |
| TPS3808G30DBVR | 3.0V threshold, open-drain output, but push/pull MR input (no internal pullup); 200ms min reset timeout; no watchdog | Lacks watchdog functionality - cannot replace MAX6320PUK30BW-T in systems requiring software hang detection | Use only in simple power-monitoring applications without watchdog needs; add external RC or GPIO-based watchdog if required. |
Compared with MAX6320PUK30BW-T, MAX6320PUK30DY-T offers longer reset hold time but identical supervision and watchdog behavior, while TPS3808G30DBVR provides basic voltage monitoring without watchdog capability - both require layout or firmware changes to substitute.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage tolerance for MAX6320PUK30BW-T over temperature?
The MAX6320PUK30BW-T has a nominal reset threshold of 3.00V with ±2.5% tolerance over the full operating range of -40°C to +125°C. At +25°C, the tolerance tightens to ±1.5%, and the device guarantees valid reset assertion down to VCC = 1V. This specification is factory-trimmed and verified per Maxim's production test flow.
Does MAX6320PUK30BW-T require an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin?
Yes, MAX6320PUK30BW-T features an open-drain RESET output and requires an external pullup resistor. A 10kΩ resistor to any supply up to 6V is recommended and sufficient in most applications. The pullup value must balance logic-high integrity against total current draw from all connected devices on the reset bus.
What is the watchdog timeout period programmed into MAX6320PUK30BW-T?
The 'W' in the suffix of MAX6320PUK30BW-T indicates the watchdog timeout period is set to the 'Y' variant: 1.12s to 2.4s, with a typical value of 1.6s. This is factory-programmed and non-adjustable. The timer resets on any edge (rising or falling) at the WDI pin or during active reset assertion.
Can MAX6320PUK30BW-T operate with a 2.8V supply rail?
No - MAX6320PUK30BW-T requires VCC ≥ 3.0V to guarantee proper reset deassertion, as its 3.0V threshold means reset remains active below that level. While the device may function down to VCC = 1.0V (per Absolute Maximum Ratings), it will continuously assert RESET below 3.0V and cannot supervise a 2.8V rail. For 2.8V systems, consider MAX6320PUK28BW-T (2.8V threshold).
Is MAX6320PUK30BW-T pin-compatible with other parts in the MAX6316–MAX6322 family?
Yes, all MAX6316–MAX6322 devices share the identical SOT23-5 pinout and package outline (21-0057). However, reset output type varies: MAX6320PUK30BW-T uses open-drain, while MAX6316LUK30BW-T uses push/pull. Swapping requires verifying output stage compatibility and adjusting external circuitry (e.g., removing pullup for push/pull variants).
