Product details
Overview
MAX6328XR31+T from Maxim Integrated is an ultra-low-power, open-drain, active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit in SC70-3 package. It monitors VCC supply voltage and asserts reset when VCC falls below 3.08V (±2.5% over temperature), maintaining reset for ≥100ms after VCC recovers. Designed for portable/battery-powered systems, it draws ≤1µA at 3V and operates from 1.2V to 5.5V.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6328XR31+T datasheet, MAX6328XR31+T pinout, MAX6328XR31+T application, or MAX6328XR31+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its factory-trimmed 3.08V reset threshold, open-drain output for bidirectional µP reset pin interfacing (e.g., Motorola 68HC11), 100ms minimum reset timeout, immunity to fast VCC transients, and compatibility with 2.5V/3V/3.3V/5V power rails.
Technical Context
The MAX6328XR31+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 open-drain RESET output requires an external pull-up and supports bidirectional reset assertion with microcontrollers like the 68HC11.
It features transient immunity: negative-going VCC glitches up to 200µs (at 200mV overdrive) are ignored, preventing false resets. The device remains functional down to VCC = 1.2V and guarantees correct reset state even at 1V during brownout conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.08V ±2.5% over -40°C to +85°C - ensures reliable brownout detection for 3.3V systems with margin. |
| Supply Current | ≤1.0µA at 3V - enables multi-year battery life in portable equipment. |
| Reset Timeout | 100ms to 280ms - meets JEDEC JESD78 power-on reset timing requirements for most µPs. |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low RESET - allows wired-OR configuration and direct interface to bidirectional µP reset pins. |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2V to 5.5V - supports operation during deep brownout and compatibility with 2.5V/3V/3.3V/5V rails. |
| Reset Hysteresis | 6.3mV - prevents oscillation near threshold during slow VCC recovery. |
| Transient Immunity | Rejects VCC glitches ≤200µs at 200mV overdrive - eliminates false resets from noise or switching spikes. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6328XR31+T is housed in a 3-pin SC70-3 package (outline X3-2), footprint-compatible with SOT23-3 but with smaller 1.25mm × 0.8mm body and 0.65mm lead pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for internal comparator and output stage; must be low-impedance connection. |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain active-low output; requires external pull-up resistor (typically 10–100kΩ) to system VCC or another rail. |
| 3 | VCC | Power supply input; powers internal circuitry and defines reset threshold reference point. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 1µA max enables >10-year battery life in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors. |
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 3.08V with ±1.5% room-temp tolerance and ±2.5% over full temperature range ensures predictable system-level brownout behavior. |
| Open-drain output architecture | Enables seamless integration with µPs having bidirectional reset pins (e.g., 68HC11) without level-shifting or additional logic. |
| Guaranteed operation down to 1.2V | Ensures valid reset assertion during deep undervoltage events before system shutdown. |
| No external components required | Reduces BOM count, PCB area, and qualification effort-single IC replaces discrete RC reset networks. |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Brownout detector triggering controlled firmware shutdown before VCC collapses below µP operational limits. Use Value: 40ppm/°C tempco maintains threshold stability across under-hood temperature swings; SC70 package saves space on dense automotive PCBs. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326XR31+T | Push-pull active-low RESET output; no external pull-up required; higher output drive (1.6mA sink). | Suitable where board space prohibits pull-up resistors or where faster reset release is needed. | Select MAX6326XR31+T if system lacks pull-up infrastructure or requires deterministic high-Z release timing. |
| TLV803EB31DBVR | 3.08V threshold, open-drain, but higher 3.5µA supply current and only specified down to 1.8V VCC min. | Limited to applications with VCC ≥1.8V; less suitable for ultra-low-power or deep-brownout scenarios. | Choose TLV803EB31DBVR only if existing TI-based BOM mandates vendor consolidation and 1.2V operation is not required. |
Compared with MAX6328XR31+T, MAX6326XR31+T eliminates the need for an external pull-up but sacrifices bidirectional reset capability; TLV803EB31DBVR offers similar threshold accuracy but cannot guarantee reset assertion below 1.8V, limiting use in battery-dead scenarios.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6328XR31+T and how does it vary with temperature?
The MAX6328XR31+T has a nominal reset threshold of 3.08V at +25°C, with ±1.5% tolerance at room temperature and ±2.5% over the full -40°C to +85°C operating range. Its temperature coefficient is 40ppm/°C, meaning threshold drift is tightly bounded and predictable across industrial temperatures - critical for consistent brownout response in field-deployed equipment.
Does MAX6328XR31+T require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
Yes, MAX6328XR31+T features an open-drain RESET output and requires an external pull-up resistor (typically 10kΩ to 100kΩ) to a valid voltage rail. This design enables wired-OR reset buses and direct interfacing with microprocessors that have bidirectional reset pins, such as the Motorola 68HC11 - a capability push-pull alternatives lack.
Can MAX6328XR31+T operate reliably when VCC drops below 2.0V?
Yes, MAX6328XR31+T is fully specified to operate and assert valid reset down to VCC = 1.2V over temperature, and guaranteed functional down to 1.0V. This ensures robust brownout detection during deep battery discharge or capacitor hold-up decay - a key differentiator versus many competitors limited to 1.8V minimum VCC.
How does MAX6328XR31+T handle fast voltage transients on the VCC line?
MAX6328XR31+T incorporates built-in transient immunity: it 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 load transients - verified in the "Maximum Transient Duration vs. Reset Threshold Overdrive" graph in the datasheet.
Is MAX6328XR31+T pin-compatible with legacy Maxim reset ICs like MAX809?
Yes, MAX6328XR31+T is pin-compatible with MAX809, MAX803, and MAX810 in both SC70-3 and SOT23-3 packages. The pinout (GND, RESET, VCC) matches exactly, enabling drop-in replacement in existing designs - provided the open-drain output behavior and 3.08V threshold meet system requirements.
