Product details
Overview
MAX6321HPUK26CY+T from Maxim Integrated is a 5-pin SOT23 microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-low open-drain reset output, 2.63V factory-trimmed reset threshold (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C), 140ms minimum reset timeout, and 1.6s typical watchdog timeout. It monitors VCC supply integrity and provides system-level reset assertion during power-up, brownout, or software lockup in embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6321HPUK26CY+T datasheet, MAX6321HPUK26CY+T pinout, MAX6321HPUK26CY+T application, or MAX6321HPUK26CY+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its open-drain RESET output compatible with multi-supply systems, guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, AEC-Q100 qualification, and factory-trimmed 2.63V threshold for 3.3V rail supervision.
Technical Context
The MAX6321HPUK26CY+T implements a precision voltage monitor using a laser-trimmed resistor divider to set the 2.63V reset threshold, with ±2.5% tolerance across -40°C to +125°C and 40ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Its internal watchdog timer clears on any WDI edge and times out after 1.6s if unserviced.
Reset assertion occurs when VCC falls below 2.63V, when MR is pulled low (active-low manual reset input with 52kΩ internal pullup), or when WDI remains static beyond 1.6s. After recovery, RESET remains asserted for 140ms before deasserting, ensuring reliable μP initialization.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.63V nominal (factory-trimmed), ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures accurate 3.3V rail supervision with margin against dropout. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms minimum - guarantees sufficient hold time for microprocessor reset sequencing after power stabilization. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s typical - provides robust software execution monitoring without excessive false triggers in real-time control loops. |
| Supply Current | 5µA typical at VCC = 3.6V - enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed or energy-constrained systems. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - supports industrial and automotive under-hood applications requiring extended thermal range. |
| Reset Output Type | Active-low open-drain - allows connection to multiple supply domains (up to 6V) via external pullup, enabling mixed-voltage system reset coordination. |
| AEC-Q100 Qualified | Yes - certified for automotive applications including engine control units and ADAS domain controllers. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6321HPUK26CY+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 open-drain output - requires external pullup resistor (e.g., 10kΩ) to target supply (≤6V); sinks current only during reset assertion. |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference - must be connected directly to system ground plane for stable voltage monitoring and noise immunity. |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input - internally pulled up to VCC via 52kΩ resistor; accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels; rejects ≤100ns glitches. |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input - edge-sensitive (rising/falling); resets internal timer on transition; disable by leaving unconnected or three-stating. |
| 5 | VCC | Supply input - monitors voltage from 1.0V to 5.5V; reset asserts when VCC drops below 2.63V; absolute max = +6V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Open-drain RESET output | Supports level-shifting across multiple supply domains (e.g., 3.3V μP with 5V I/O rail) using a single external pullup resistor. |
| Factory-trimmed 2.63V threshold | Eliminates external resistor network; achieves ±2.5% accuracy over full temperature range without calibration. |
| 140ms reset timeout | Ensures μP reset signal meets minimum assertion time requirements for ARM Cortex-M and RISC-V boot sequences. |
| 1.6s watchdog timeout | Matches typical firmware main-loop execution intervals in industrial PLCs and motor control firmware. |
| AEC-Q100 qualification | Validated for automotive Grade 2 (-40°C to +105°C case) and Grade 3 (-40°C to +125°C case) environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6321HPUK29CY+T | 2.93V reset threshold (vs. 2.63V); identical 140ms timeout and 1.6s watchdog. | Targeted at 3.3V systems with tighter tolerance margins or higher noise immunity requirements. | Select when supervising 3.3V rails with >100mV headroom above nominal; same footprint and pinout. |
| TPS3808G18DBVR | 1.8V reset threshold; 200ms timeout; no watchdog; push/pull output (not open-drain). | Lacks watchdog functionality and multi-supply compatibility; requires redesign for pullup topology. | Choose only for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where watchdog is unnecessary and 1.8V threshold suffices. |
Compared with MAX6321HPUK26CY+T, the MAX6321HPUK29CY+T offers identical architecture with higher reset threshold for enhanced noise margin, while the TPS3808G18DBVR sacrifices watchdog capability and open-drain flexibility for lower unit cost in simpler applications.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6321HPUK26CY+T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6321HPUK26CY+T features a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 2.63V, with ±2.5% tolerance over the full operating range of -40°C to +125°C and a temperature coefficient of 40ppm/°C. This ensures consistent 3.3V rail supervision without drift-induced false resets in thermal cycling environments such as automotive under-hood or industrial enclosures.
Does MAX6321HPUK26CY+T support manual reset, and how is the MR pin configured?
Yes, MAX6321HPUK26CY+T includes an active-low manual reset (MR) input with an internal 52kΩ pullup resistor to VCC. The MR pin accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels, rejects transients ≤100ns, and asserts reset for the full 140ms timeout period after release. No external components are required unless additional noise filtering (e.g., 0.1µF capacitor to GND) is needed.
How does the watchdog function work in MAX6321HPUK26CY+T, and what is its timeout period?
The MAX6321HPUK26CY+T watchdog timer resets on any rising or falling edge at the WDI pin and times out after 1.6s if unserviced. This interval is factory-trimmed and typical; the timer clears automatically during reset assertion. Disabling the watchdog requires leaving WDI unconnected or three-stating the driving source.
What type of reset output does MAX6321HPUK26CY+T provide, and why is it significant?
MAX6321HPUK26CY+T provides an active-low open-drain RESET output, which requires an external pullup resistor but enables interface with multiple supply domains (up to 6V). This architecture eliminates level-shifter components in mixed-voltage systems - for example, coordinating reset between a 3.3V MCU and 5V CAN transceiver using a single 10kΩ pullup to 5V.
Is MAX6321HPUK26CY+T qualified for automotive applications, and what standards does it meet?
Yes, MAX6321HPUK26CY+T is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive use, supporting Grade 3 temperature range (-40°C to +125°C). It meets stringent reliability and stress-test requirements for deployment in body control modules, infotainment systems, and ADAS domain controllers where functional safety and long-term stability are critical.
