Product details
Overview
MAX6326XR25-T from Maxim Integrated is an ultra-low-power, active-low push-pull microprocessor supervisory circuit designed to monitor 2.5V power supplies and assert a reset signal during brownout or power-up conditions. It features a factory-trimmed 2.500V reset threshold (±1.5% at +25°C), 100ms minimum reset timeout, 1µA max supply current, and operates from VCC = 1.2V to 5.5V over –40°C to +85°C. Used in portable battery-powered systems requiring reliable power-on reset.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6326XR25-T datasheet, MAX6326XR25-T pinout, MAX6326XR25-T application, or MAX6326XR25-T equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy, push-pull output drive capability, SC70-3 package footprint compatibility, and guaranteed operation down to 1.2V VCC for low-voltage system monitoring.
Technical Context
The MAX6326XR25-T implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with hysteresis (6.3mV) to detect VCC falling below 2.500V, triggering an active-low RESET output. Its internal timing circuit ensures a minimum 100ms reset assertion after VCC recovers above threshold, independent of supply ramp rate.
Designed for immunity to fast transients, it suppresses false resets from negative-going VCC glitches up to 200µs (at 200mV overdrive), and guarantees correct logic state down to 1.2V VCC - enabling use in deep-sleep or ultra-low-power microcontroller systems.
Key Specifications

Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Battery-powered wearable ECG sensor operating from a single 2.5V Li-ion cell with sleep mode between measurements. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervisory IC asserting active-low RESET to hold MCU in reset until stable 2.5V rail is confirmed post-wakeup. Use Value: 1µA max ICC extends battery life beyond 5 years; 2.500V threshold matches nominal supply, minimizing false triggers during shallow discharge. | Use Scenario: DIN-rail mounted analog input module powered by isolated 2.5V DC-DC converter in harsh factory environment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Power-on supervisor ensuring FPGA and ADC initialize only after clean 2.5V rail establishment. Use Value: 100ms min timeout prevents premature release during converter startup overshoot; –40°C to +85°C rating ensures reliability in uncontrolled enclosures. |
| Smart Meter Communication Units | Low-Power IoT Edge Nodes |
Use Scenario: NB-IoT modem subsystem powered by regulated 2.5V rail, requiring fail-safe boot sequence after power interruption. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Brownout detector asserting RESET whenever VCC drops below 2.5V, holding µC in reset until full recovery. Use Value: 6.3mV hysteresis prevents chatter during marginal VCC conditions; push-pull output drives modem reset pin without external pull-up. | Use Scenario: Sub-GHz sensor node using ultra-low-power MCU, powered intermittently by energy harvesting circuitry. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: System-level reset controller guaranteeing controlled wake-up only when 2.5V rail is valid and stable. Use Value: Operation down to 1.2V VCC allows supervision during initial charge phase of supercapacitor storage; SC70-3 footprint saves PCB area in compact designs. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326UR25-T | SOT23-3 package (3.0mm × 1.4mm); identical electrical specs and reset threshold | Requires different land pattern; better thermal dissipation (320mW vs. 174mW) | Select for higher power handling or legacy SOT23 footprint compatibility |
| MAX809TR25-T | Same 2.5V threshold but 1.6µA max ICC; push-pull active-low output; ±2% threshold tolerance | Higher supply current reduces battery life; looser threshold spec increases undervoltage margin risk | Select only if SOT23-3 footprint and lower cost outweigh precision and ultra-low power needs |
Compared with MAX6326XR25-T, the MAX6326UR25-T offers identical functionality in a larger SOT23-3 package with higher power dissipation headroom, while the MAX809TR25-T trades precision and ultra-low ICC for broader availability and lower unit cost - making the MAX6326XR25-T optimal for space-constrained, long-life 2.5V systems demanding tight threshold control.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6326XR25-T and how tightly is it specified?
The MAX6326XR25-T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 2.500V, specified as ±1.5% at +25°C and ±2.5% over the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range. This precision ensures deterministic reset behavior in 2.5V systems without calibration or external adjustment, and is confirmed in Table 1 of the official datasheet.
Does MAX6326XR25-T require any external components to function?
No, the MAX6326XR25-T requires no external components. It integrates the voltage reference, comparator, timing circuit, and push-pull output driver in a single SC70-3 package. The device asserts RESET based solely on VCC level and internal timing - eliminating RC networks, pull-up resistors, or trimming potentiometers required by discrete solutions.
What is the minimum VCC voltage at which MAX6326XR25-T guarantees correct reset state?
The MAX6326XR25-T guarantees correct reset assertion and deassertion behavior down to VCC = 1.2V over the full –40°C to +85°C temperature range. This enables reliable operation during deep brownout conditions and supports use with ultra-low-voltage microcontrollers that remain functional below 1.8V.
How does the MAX6326XR25-T handle fast transients on the VCC supply line?
The MAX6326XR25-T incorporates transient immunity circuitry that ignores negative-going VCC glitches up to 200µs in duration when the overdrive (VTH – VCC) is 200mV. This prevents spurious resets caused by switching noise or coupling events, as validated in the "Maximum Transient Duration vs. Reset Threshold Overdrive" graph (Figure 4) of the datasheet.
Is MAX6326XR25-T pin-compatible with other members of the MAX6326 family or legacy supervisors?
Yes, MAX6326XR25-T is pin-compatible with all SC70-3 variants in the MAX6326/MAX6327/MAX6328 series (e.g., MAX6326XR26-T, MAX6327XR25-T), and also with the MAX803/MAX809/MAX810 families in SC70-3 or SOT23-3 packages. Pin 1 = GND, Pin 2 = RESET, Pin 3 = VCC - consistent across all these supervisory ICs.
