Product details
Overview
MAX6327UR29 from Maxim Integrated is an active-high push-pull microprocessor supervisory circuit designed to monitor 2.93V power supplies in embedded digital systems. It asserts a high-level reset signal when VCC falls below 2.93V (±1.5% at +25°C, ±2.5% over -40°C to +85°C), holds reset for ≥100ms after VCC recovers, draws ≤1µA supply current, and operates down to 1V VCC - making it suitable for battery-powered portable equipment requiring reliable brownout detection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6327UR29 datasheet, MAX6327UR29 pinout, MAX6327UR29 application, or MAX6327UR29 equivalent, this device serves as a precision, ultra-low-power reset supervisor for 2.93V rails in space-constrained industrial controllers, automotive ECUs, and intelligent instrumentation where deterministic reset timing and transient immunity are critical.
Technical Context
The MAX6327UR29 integrates a factory-trimmed voltage comparator with hysteresis (9.5mV typical) and a precise timeout delay circuit to guarantee ≥100ms reset assertion after VCC recovery. Its reset threshold is fixed at 2.93V and fully specified across -40°C to +85°C with 40ppm/°C tempco.
It features active-high push-pull output capable of sourcing 800µA (VOH = 0.8·VCC) and sinking 3.2mA (VOL = 0.4V), with built-in immunity to fast VCC transients - rejecting negative glitches up to 200µs at 100mV overdrive - and requires no external components for basic operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.93V ±1.5% (25°C), ±2.5% (-40°C to +85°C); ensures reliable detection of 2.93V rail brownout without false triggering. |
| Supply Current | ≤1µA max; enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries in portable monitoring devices. |
| Reset Pulse Width | ≥100ms minimum; guarantees sufficient time for microcontroller initialization and memory stabilization. |
| Output Type | Active-high push-pull; drives logic-high reset directly without pull-up resistor, simplifying interface to µP reset pins. |

| Tempco | 40ppm/°C; maintains tight threshold stability across industrial temperature range. |
| Hysteresis | 9.5mV typical; prevents oscillation near threshold during slow VCC recovery. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6327UR29 is housed in a 3-pin SOT23-3 package (JEDEC MO-178AA), with 1.3mm × 2.9mm footprint and 1.45mm height - optimized for high-density PCB layouts in portable and automotive modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for internal comparator and output driver; must be connected to system ground plane for stable threshold accuracy. |
| 2 (RESET) | Active-high push-pull output | Drives high during reset assertion (VCC < 2.93V); sinks 3.2mA or sources 800µA; connects directly to µP reset input. |
| 3 (VCC) | Supply voltage input | Monitored power rail input; also powers internal circuitry; functional down to 1.0V for fail-safe operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TR29D3T | Same 2.93V threshold, but open-drain output requiring external pull-up; 1.2µA max ICC. | Suitable only where µP reset pin accepts open-drain interface; adds one passive component and increases leakage risk. | Select MAX809TR29D3T only if legacy design uses open-drain topology or board layout cannot accommodate push-pull drive. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 2.93V threshold option available; 1.8µA max ICC; wider VCC range (0.8V–6V); adjustable reset delay via capacitor. | Offers programmable timeout but higher current draw; not pin-compatible; requires additional timing capacitor. | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR when extended reset duration (>100ms) or ultra-low-VCC operation below 1.0V is required. |
Compared with MAX809TR29D3T and TPS3808G33DBVR, the MAX6327UR29 delivers lowest power (≤1µA), guaranteed push-pull drive without external components, and optimal fit for compact, battery-sensitive 2.93V supervision - trading programmability and ultra-wide VCC range for minimal size and current.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6327UR29 and how tightly is it specified?
The MAX6327UR29 has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 2.93V, with tolerance of ±1.5% at +25°C and ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. This specification is guaranteed by production testing and documented in the Electrical Characteristics table of the official datasheet. The MAX6327UR29 uses laser trimming to achieve this precision without external calibration components.
Does MAX6327UR29 require any external components to function as a reset supervisor?
No, the MAX6327UR29 requires zero external components for basic reset supervision functionality. Its internal voltage reference, comparator, and timer are fully integrated. Unlike open-drain alternatives, its active-high push-pull output eliminates the need for an external pull-up resistor. Only VCC, GND, and the RESET connection to the microprocessor are necessary for operation.
What is the maximum allowable VCC transient duration that MAX6327UR29 will ignore without asserting reset?
The MAX6327UR29 ignores negative-going VCC transients up to 200µs in duration when the overdrive (VTH – VCC) is 100mV, as shown in the "Maximum Transient Duration vs. Reset Threshold Overdrive" graph in the datasheet. This immunity is achieved through internal filtering and ensures robust operation in electrically noisy environments like automotive or industrial motor-control subsystems.
Can MAX6327UR29 operate reliably when VCC drops below 2.93V but remains above 1.0V?
Yes, the MAX6327UR29 is fully functional and guarantees correct reset state down to VCC = 1.0V - well below its 2.93V threshold. This allows it to assert and hold reset even during severe brownout conditions where the supply may collapse to 1.2V or 1.5V before recovering. The internal circuitry remains biased and stable throughout this range, ensuring no metastability or undefined output behavior.
Is MAX6327UR29 pin-compatible with other members of the MAX6326/MAX6327/MAX6328 family?
Yes, all MAX6326/MAX6327/MAX6328 variants share identical SOT23-3 pinout (GND, RESET, VCC) and package dimensions. The MAX6327UR29 is pin-compatible with MAX6326UR29 and MAX6328UR29 - differing only in output polarity (active-high push-pull vs. active-low push-pull vs. active-low open-drain). This allows direct substitution in existing layouts when output logic level requirements change.
