Product details
Overview
MAX6328XR26 from Maxim Integrated is an ultra-low-power, open-drain, active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit in SC70-3 package, designed to monitor 2.63V power supplies and assert a reset signal during brownout or power-up/down events. It guarantees correct operation down to VCC = 1.2V, delivers ≤1µA supply current at +25°C, provides ≥100ms reset timeout after VCC recovery, and features factory-trimmed reset threshold of 2.630V ±1.5% at +25°C with ±2.5% over –40°C to +85°C.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6328XR26 datasheet, MAX6328XR26 pinout, MAX6328XR26 application, or MAX6328XR26 equivalent, this device is selected for battery-powered µP systems requiring precise 2.63V supply monitoring, immunity to fast VCC transients, minimal board space (SC70-3), and compatibility with bidirectional reset pins such as those on Motorola 68HC11 microcontrollers.
Technical Context
The MAX6328XR26 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with hysteresis (6.3mV) and internal timing circuitry to generate a minimum 100ms reset pulse width after VCC rises above the 2.63V threshold. Its open-drain RESET output requires an external pull-up resistor and supports bidirectional reset assertion in shared-reset architectures.
It operates across –40°C to +85°C with full electrical specification, exhibits 40ppm/°C reset threshold tempco, and rejects negative-going VCC transients up to 200µs duration when VCC dips 200mV below threshold - enabling robust operation in noisy power environments without external filtering.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.630V ±1.5% at +25°C; ±2.5% over –40°C to +85°C - ensures accurate 2.63V supply monitoring across industrial temperature range |
| Supply Current | ≤1.0µA max at +25°C, VCC = 3.0V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered devices |
| Reset Timeout | 100ms min (185ms typ, 280ms max) after VCC exceeds threshold - meets µP power-on initialization timing requirements |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low RESET - allows wired-OR configuration and direct interface with bidirectional µP reset pins |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2V to 5.5V - supports valid reset assertion even during deep brownout conditions down to 1.2V |
| Reset Hysteresis | 6.3mV - prevents oscillatory reset assertion near threshold due to noise or slow-rising VCC |
| Transient Immunity | Rejects VCC glitches ≤200µs wide at 200mV overdrive - eliminates false resets in electrically noisy systems |
Pinout & Package
MAX6328XR26 is housed in a 3-pin SC70-3 package (outline X3-2, land pattern 90-0208), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm, with gull-wing leads and RoHS-compliant lead-free finish (marked "FRAA").
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for internal comparator and output stage; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain active-low reset output; requires external pull-up resistor (typically 10kΩ to VCC or another rail); sinks ≥1.6mA when asserted |
| 3 | VCC | Power supply input; monitors this rail for reset generation; accepts 1.2V–5.5V; includes internal ESD protection to ±6V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low ICC | 1µA maximum supply current enables >10-year battery life in portable instrumentation |
| Factory-trimmed VTH | 2.630V threshold set at wafer level with ±1.5% room-temp accuracy - eliminates calibration overhead |
| Open-drain RESET | Supports multi-source reset arbitration and direct interface with Motorola 68HC11–class bidirectional reset pins |
| Guaranteed 1V operation | Valid reset state maintained down to VCC = 1.2V - ensures deterministic behavior during deep brownout |
| Transient immunity | Immune to VCC glitches <200µs at 200mV overdrive - removes need for external RC filtering on supply rail |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6328UR26 | Same electrical specs and reset threshold, but in SOT23-3 package (4.0mm × 2.8mm vs SC70-3's 2.0mm × 2.1mm) | Preferred where hand-soldering or legacy footprint compatibility is required; larger thermal mass improves power dissipation margin | Select MAX6328UR26 if board layout uses standard SOT23-3 land pattern or requires higher IPC Class 3 rework tolerance |
| TLV803E26DBZR | 2.63V open-drain reset IC with 1.8µA max ICC (vs 1.0µA), 140ms min reset timeout, and –40°C to +125°C rating | Better suited for under-hood automotive use; higher ICC reduces battery runtime in portable gear | Choose TLV803E26DBZR only when extended temperature range is mandatory and 0.8µA extra supply current is acceptable |
Compared with MAX6328XR26, the MAX6328UR26 offers identical supervision functionality in a larger, more manufacturable package, while the TLV803E26DBZR trades ultra-low power for wider temperature coverage - making MAX6328XR26 optimal for space- and energy-constrained industrial portables.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6328XR26 and how tightly is it specified?
The MAX6328XR26 has a nominal reset threshold of 2.630V, specified as 2.591V to 2.669V at +25°C (±1.5%), and 2.564V to 2.696V over the full –40°C to +85°C operating range (±2.5%). This factory-trimmed accuracy eliminates need for external calibration and ensures consistent brownout detection across temperature.
Does MAX6328XR26 require an external pull-up resistor on its RESET pin?
Yes, MAX6328XR26 features an open-drain RESET output and requires an external pull-up resistor to a valid voltage rail (e.g., VCC or another logic-compatible supply). Typical values range from 4.7kΩ to 10kΩ; the device sinks ≥1.6mA when RESET is asserted, ensuring solid low-level drive into µP reset inputs.
Can MAX6328XR26 operate reliably when VCC drops below 2.0V?
Yes, MAX6328XR26 is fully specified to maintain correct reset state down to VCC = 1.2V across –40°C to +85°C. Its internal circuitry remains functional and asserts RESET appropriately even during deep brownout - a key advantage over many competing supervisors that fail below 1.8V.
How does MAX6328XR26 handle fast transients on the VCC supply line?
MAX6328XR26 incorporates transient immunity circuitry that ignores negative-going VCC glitches shorter than ~200µs when the overdrive (VTH – VCC) is 200mV. This is documented in the "Maximum Transient Duration vs. Reset Threshold Overdrive" graph and eliminates need for external RC filters in most industrial and portable applications.
Is MAX6328XR26 pin-compatible with older Maxim reset ICs like MAX809?
Yes, MAX6328XR26 is pin-compatible with MAX809-series devices in the same SC70-3 package - sharing identical 1-GND / 2-RESET / 3-VCC pinout. However, MAX6328XR26 offers lower supply current (1µA vs ~10µA), tighter threshold accuracy, and improved transient rejection compared to legacy parts.
