Product details
Overview
MAX6323DUT46-T from Maxim Integrated is a microprocessor supervisory circuit with windowed (min/max) watchdog, precision +4.63V reset threshold (±2.5%), and push-pull active-low RESET output. It monitors VCC supply integrity and µP activity in automotive and industrial control systems, asserting RESET below threshold and generating 1ms WDPO fault pulses for out-of-window WDI timing. Guaranteed operation down to VCC = +1.2V supports robust brownout detection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6323DUT46-T datasheet, MAX6323DUT46-T pinout, MAX6323DUT46-T application, or MAX6323DUT46-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its factory-trimmed 15ms fast / 10s slow watchdog timeout window (suffix 'D'), ±2.5% reset accuracy at 4.63V nominal, 23µA typical supply current, 6-pin SOT23 package, and AEC-Q100-compatible extended temperature range (-40°C to +125°C).
Technical Context
The MAX6323DUT46-T implements a dual-threshold windowed watchdog: fast timeout (15ms min) detects premature WDI falling edges, while slow timeout (10s max) flags missing edges. Its internal comparator guarantees valid RESET assertion down to VCC = +1.2V, enabling reliable power-down reset signaling even during deep brownout conditions.
This variant uses laser-trimmed thresholds-4.63V nominal reset voltage (code '46') and 'D' watchdog configuration-and features debounced MR input, 100ms minimum RESET timeout delay, and open-drain WDPO pulsed low for 1ms on fault detection. All timing is referenced to the last WDI falling edge with ≥300ns pulse width requirement.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.63V ±2.5% - ensures precise power-on/brownout detection for +5V systems |
| Fast Watchdog Timeout | 15ms min - rejects spurious early WDI pulses without false triggering |
| Slow Watchdog Timeout | 10s max - detects µP lockup or code execution stall over extended intervals |
| Supply Current | 23µA typ - enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed or energy-constrained systems |
| RESET Timeout Delay | 100ms min - guarantees sufficient reset hold time for µP initialization sequences |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - meets extended industrial and automotive under-hood requirements |
| VCC Range | 1.2V to 5.5V - supports valid RESET assertion across full brownout recovery range |
Pinout & Package
MAX6323DUT46-T is housed in a 6-pin SOT23 package (package code U6+1A, outline 21-0058), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts and high-reliability applications including automotive ECUs and industrial controllers.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - MR | Active-low manual reset input | Internally pulled up; asserts RESET and clears watchdog timer when low ≥1µs; immune to 100ns glitches |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal circuitry and external bypass capacitors (≥500pF on VCC) |
| 3 - WDI | Watchdog input | Falling-edge-triggered; resets internal watchdog timer; requires ≥300ns pulse width |
| 4 - VCC | Supply voltage input | Monitored for reset generation; operates from 1.2V–5.5V; supports bypassing for noise immunity |
| 5 - WDPO | Open-drain watchdog pulse output | Pulsed low for 1ms on fast/slow fault detection; requires external pullup to ≤+6V |
| 6 - RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output | Asserted when VCC < 4.63V or MR low; held ≥100ms after recovery; no external pullup needed |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Windowed (min/max) watchdog | Enables detection of both premature and delayed µP activity-critical for safety-critical loop monitoring |
| Laser-trimmed reset threshold | ±2.5% accuracy at 4.63V eliminates need for external resistor networks in +5V system designs |
| Guaranteed RESET validity to VCC = +1.2V | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during deep brownout, preventing undefined µP states |
| Debounced manual reset input | Eliminates need for external RC filtering-MR accepts direct switch connection with 100ns glitch immunity |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6324DUT46-T | Open-drain RESET output instead of push-pull; identical watchdog and reset thresholds | Required when interfacing with bidirectional µP reset pins or level-shifting across multiple supply domains | Select MAX6324DUT46-T only if open-drain RESET is needed for bus sharing or multi-rail compatibility |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Fixed 3.3V reset threshold; no windowed watchdog; 300ms reset timeout; 2.9µA supply current | Suitable for simpler brownout-only supervision in low-power 3.3V systems without µP activity monitoring | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR only for cost-sensitive, non-safety-critical 3.3V applications lacking watchdog requirements |
Compared with MAX6324DUT46-T, the MAX6323DUT46-T provides push-pull RESET for simplified layout and lower BOM count; compared with TPS3808G33DBVR, it delivers superior functional safety via windowed watchdog and higher-accuracy 4.63V reset for +5V systems.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6323DUT46-T?
The MAX6323DUT46-T has a nominal reset threshold of 4.63V with ±2.5% accuracy across -40°C to +125°C. This value is laser-trimmed at wafer test and specified in the Electrical Characteristics table as VTH = 4.50V (min), 4.63V (typ), 4.75V (max). The '46' suffix in MAX6323DUT46-T explicitly denotes this 4.63V threshold variant.
Does MAX6323DUT46-T support windowed watchdog functionality?
Yes, MAX6323DUT46-T implements true windowed (min/max) watchdog supervision. With suffix 'D', it provides a 15ms minimum fast timeout and 10s maximum slow timeout. This allows detection of both premature WDI pulses (faster than 15ms) and missing pulses (slower than 10s), ensuring comprehensive µP activity monitoring.
What is the RESET output type of MAX6323DUT46-T?
The MAX6323DUT46-T features a push-pull active-low RESET output, eliminating the need for an external pullup resistor. This differs from the MAX6324 series, which uses open-drain RESET. The push-pull design simplifies PCB layout and reduces component count in single-supply systems.
Can MAX6323DUT46-T operate reliably during deep brownout conditions?
Yes, MAX6323DUT46-T guarantees valid RESET assertion down to VCC = +1.2V, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics sections. Below this voltage, the RESET output becomes high-impedance, but the device continues asserting RESET until VCC recovers above the 4.63V threshold plus timeout.
What package and pin count does MAX6323DUT46-T use?
MAX6323DUT46-T is supplied in a 6-pin SOT23 package (package code U6+1A, JEDEC outline 21-0058). Its compact footprint and thermal performance (θJA = 115°C/W on multilayer board) make it suitable for high-density automotive and industrial PCBs where space and reliability are critical.
