Product details
Overview
MAX6323HUT46-T from Maxim Integrated is a microprocessor supervisory circuit with windowed (min/max) watchdog, precision +4.63V reset threshold (±2.5%), 100ms minimum reset timeout, push-pull active-low RESET output, and operation over -40°C to +125°C. It monitors VCC and µP activity in automotive engine control units requiring deterministic fault detection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6323HUT46-T datasheet, MAX6323HUT46-T pinout, MAX6323HUT46-T application, or MAX6323HUT46-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its factory-trimmed 4.63V reset threshold, H-window slow watchdog timeout (1.3s), push-pull RESET drive capability, and AEC-Q100-compatible qualification path for automotive systems.
Technical Context
The MAX6323HUT46-T implements a dual-window watchdog that detects both fast faults (WDI falling edges <719ms apart) and slow faults (no WDI edge >1.3s), with WDPO pulsed low for 1ms on fault detection. Its VCC monitor guarantees valid RESET down to VCC = +1.2V and asserts RESET for ≥100ms after VCC rises above 4.63V.
It features a debounced manual reset input (MR) with 1μs minimum pulse width and internal 85kΩ pullup, and operates at 23µA typical supply current. The device uses BiCMOS process technology and integrates 1371 transistors for high noise immunity in harsh environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.63V ±2.5% - precisely matches +5.0V rail monitoring with brownout margin |
| Reset Timeout Delay | 100ms minimum - ensures µP completes power-up initialization before release | Watchdog Slow Timeout | 1.3s (H-window) - sets maximum allowable software loop duration in safety-critical firmware |
| Supply Current | 23µA typical - enables always-on monitoring in battery-backed automotive modules |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - supports under-hood deployment in engine control applications |
| RESET Output Type | Push-pull active-low - eliminates external pullup resistor, simplifies interface to CMOS µP reset pins |
| VCC Validity Range | 1.2V to 5.5V - guarantees functional RESET assertion even during deep brownout conditions |
Pinout & Package
MAX6323HUT46-T is housed in a 6-pin SOT23 package (package code U6+1A, outline 21-0058), with 1.6mm × 2.9mm footprint and 0.95mm height, suitable for space-constrained automotive PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 MR | Active-low manual reset input | Internally pulled up to VCC; 1μs minimum pulse width; resets watchdog timer and asserts RESET |
| 2 GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for RESET, WDPO, and internal comparators; must be low-impedance |
| 3 WDI | Watchdog input | Falling-edge triggered; clears internal watchdog timer; requires ≥300ns pulse width |
| 4 VCC | Supply voltage input | Monitored reset source; bypass with ≥500pF capacitor near pin for transient immunity |
| 5 WDPO | Open-drain watchdog pulse output | Pulses low for 1ms on fast/slow fault detection; requires external pullup to ≤+6V |
| 6 RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output | Asserts low when VCC < 4.63V or MR low; holds for ≥100ms after recovery; drives CMOS inputs directly |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Windowed (min/max) watchdog | Detects both stuck-loop (fast fault) and hung-code (slow fault) conditions - critical for ASIL-B software validation |
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 4.63V ±2.5% - eliminates external resistor divider, improves long-term accuracy vs. temperature |
| Guaranteed RESET validity to VCC = +1.2V | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during gradual power collapse - prevents undefined µP states |
| Debounced MR input | Rejects 100ns glitches and requires only 1μs low pulse - enables direct switch connection without RC network |
| Low quiescent current | 23µA typical - extends battery life in always-on vehicle subsystems such as telematics wake-up monitors |
Applications
| Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) Camera Module |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6324HUT46-T | Open-drain RESET output instead of push-pull; identical reset threshold, watchdog windows, and timing | Required when interfacing with bidirectional µP reset pins or level-shifting across multiple supply domains | Select MAX6324HUT46-T only if open-drain drive is needed; otherwise MAX6323HUT46-T reduces component count |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Fixed 3.3V reset threshold; no windowed watchdog; 200ms reset timeout; 1.8–6.0V operation | Suitable for simpler brownout-only supervision where software execution timing validation is not required | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR only for cost-sensitive non-safety applications lacking watchdog requirements |
Compared with MAX6324HUT46-T, the MAX6323HUT46-T offers direct-drive RESET capability eliminating pullup resistors, while TPS3808G33DBVR lacks min/max watchdog functionality entirely-making MAX6323HUT46-T the only option meeting ASIL-B software timing supervision requirements.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6323HUT46-T?
The MAX6323HUT46-T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 4.63V, with guaranteed tolerance of ±2.5% (4.50V to 4.75V) over the full -40°C to +125°C temperature range. This value is laser-trimmed during manufacturing and specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of the MAX6323/MAX6324 datasheet.
Does MAX6323HUT46-T support windowed watchdog functionality?
Yes, MAX6323HUT46-T implements a true min/max (windowed) watchdog with independent fast and slow timeout thresholds. For the 'H' suffix, it provides a 719ms minimum (fast fault) and 1.3s maximum (slow fault) window, enabling detection of both stuck loops and hung firmware execution.
What is the RESET output configuration of MAX6323HUT46-T?
MAX6323HUT46-T features a push-pull active-low RESET output, which actively drives low and high without requiring an external pullup resistor. This differs from the MAX6324 variant, which uses an open-drain RESET output requiring external pullup.
What is the minimum reset timeout duration for MAX6323HUT46-T?
The MAX6323HUT46-T guarantees a minimum reset timeout delay of 100ms after VCC rises above the 4.63V threshold and the manual reset input (MR) is deasserted. This ensures sufficient time for µP power stabilization and internal register initialization before release.
Is MAX6323HUT46-T qualified for automotive applications?
While MAX6323HUT46-T itself is not explicitly AEC-Q100 certified, it belongs to the MAX6323/MAX6324 family whose automotive-grade variants (e.g., MAX6324HUT44/V+T) are AEC-Q100 qualified. The MAX6323HUT46-T shares identical die, process (BiCMOS), and operating temperature range (-40°C to +125°C), making it suitable for automotive use with appropriate system-level qualification.
