Product details
Overview
MAX6327XR29+T from Maxim Integrated is an active-high push-pull microprocessor supervisory circuit designed to monitor 2.93V power supplies and assert a reset signal during brownout, power-up, and power-down events. It guarantees correct operation down to VCC = 1.2V, delivers ≤1µA supply current at +25°C, maintains ≥100ms reset timeout after VCC recovery, and features factory-trimmed 2.93V threshold with ±1.5% room-temperature tolerance. It is used in portable battery-powered microcontroller systems requiring ultra-low-power voltage monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6327XR29+T datasheet, MAX6327XR29+T pinout, MAX6327XR29+T application, or MAX6327XR29+T equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, SC70-3 package details, confirmed alternative parts with functional distinctions, and supply support for industrial embedded and portable equipment designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6327XR29+T implements a precision bandgap-based reset comparator with 40ppm/°C tempco and 6.3mV hysteresis, ensuring stable threshold behavior across -40°C to +85°C. Its active-high push-pull RESET output sources ≥500µA at 0.8·VCC while asserted and sinks up to 1.2mA when deasserted, eliminating external pull-up components.
It requires no external timing or biasing elements, achieves immunity to VCC transients ≤20µs (at 100mV overdrive), and asserts reset within 20µs of VCC falling below 2.93V. The device remains fully functional down to 1.2V VCC, enabling reliable supervision in deep-brownout conditions common in Li-ion battery discharge profiles.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6327UR29+T | SOT23-3 package (larger 2.92mm × 1.3mm body, 0.95mm pitch); identical electrical specs | Preferred where manual soldering or legacy footprint compatibility required | Select MAX6327UR29+T for ease of assembly or existing SOT23 land patterns |
| MAX809TRD3+T | 2.93V threshold, open-drain output, 1.2µA max ICC, same SC70-3 package | Requires external pull-up; suited for bidirectional reset pins (e.g., ARM Cortex-M) | Choose MAX809TRD3+T only when µP reset pin is bidirectional and open-drain interface is mandated |
Compared with MAX6327XR29+T, the MAX6327UR29+T offers identical functionality in a larger, more hand-solderable package, while the MAX809TRD3+T trades push-pull drive for open-drain flexibility-requiring added pull-up resistance and increasing standby leakage in battery-critical designs.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6327XR29+T and how tightly is it specified?
The MAX6327XR29+T has a nominal reset threshold of 2.93V, factory-trimmed with ±1.5% tolerance at +25°C and ±2.5% over the full -40°C to +85°C operating range. This precision eliminates need for external calibration and ensures consistent brownout detection across environmental conditions. The 6.3mV hysteresis further stabilizes behavior near the trip point. All values are production-tested and guaranteed per the datasheet Electrical Characteristics table.
Does MAX6327XR29+T require any external components to operate?
No, MAX6327XR29+T requires zero external components. Its active-high push-pull RESET output drives the microcontroller reset pin directly-no pull-up resistor needed. The internal precision voltage reference, comparator, and timing circuitry are fully integrated. This simplifies layout, reduces BOM cost, and improves reliability compared to discrete supervisor solutions.
What is the minimum VCC voltage at which MAX6327XR29+T remains functional?
MAX6327XR29+T is guaranteed to maintain correct reset state and comparator operation down to VCC = 1.2V over the full -40°C to +85°C temperature range. This enables reliable supervision during deep brownout events typical in lithium coin-cell or supercapacitor backup scenarios, where voltage decays well below nominal rails before system shutdown.
How does MAX6327XR29+T handle fast transients on the VCC supply line?
MAX6327XR29+T rejects negative-going VCC transients ≤20µs in duration when the overdrive (VTH – VCC) is 100mV, as characterized in the Typical Operating Characteristics graph "Maximum Transient Duration vs. Reset Threshold Overdrive". This immunity prevents false resets caused by switching noise or load-dump spikes, ensuring robust operation in electrically noisy environments like automotive or industrial settings.
What package type and footprint does MAX6327XR29+T use, and is it compatible with automated assembly?
MAX6327XR29+T uses the 3-pin SC70-3 package (outline X3-2), measuring 1.25mm × 0.85mm with 0.65mm lead pitch. It is supplied in tape-and-reel format and fully compatible with standard high-speed pick-and-place equipment and reflow soldering profiles. The small footprint supports miniaturized PCBs in wearables and compact sensor nodes while maintaining process reliability.
