Product details
Overview
The MAX6332UR20D3 from Maxim Integrated is a push/pull, active-high microprocessor supervisory circuit in a 3-pin SOT23 package, designed for reliable power-on reset generation in ultra-low-voltage systems. It monitors VCC (0.7V to 5.5V), asserts RESET high when VCC falls below 2.00V ±1.8% at +25°C (±3% over -40°C to +125°C), and maintains the signal for ≥100ms after VCC recovers - enabling robust brownout protection in battery-powered controllers and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6332UR20D3 datasheet, MAX6332UR20D3 pinout, MAX6332UR20D3 application, or MAX6332UR20D3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed 0.7V operating supply, 3.3µA typical supply current at 1.8V, factory-trimmed 2.0V reset threshold, 100ms minimum timeout, and push/pull active-high output compatible with high-impedance μP reset inputs requiring asserted-high logic during fault conditions.
Technical Context
The MAX6332UR20D3 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with hysteresis and an internal timer for fixed reset timeout. Its reset assertion logic is tied directly to VCC monitoring without external RC components, and the push/pull output stage sources up to 200µA while sinking up to 1.2mA, ensuring valid logic levels across 1.0V–5.5V VCC range.
Reset propagation delay is specified at 24µs for VCC falling at 10V/ms, and the device rejects transients ≤24µs at 20mV overdrive - critical for noise-immune operation in switching-power-supply environments. The comparator's temperature coefficient is fully characterized from -40°C to +125°C, with reset timeout period variation normalized to <±25% over that range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.00V ±1.8% at +25°C; ±3% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures precise brownout detection for 2.0V nominal rails |
| Reset Timeout Period | ≥100ms - guarantees sufficient hold time for full μP initialization after power recovery |
| Supply Voltage Range | 0.7V to 5.5V - supports operation down to near-dead-battery conditions in portable equipment |
| Supply Current | 3.3µA typical at VCC = 1.8V - enables multi-year battery life in always-on monitoring applications |
| Output Type | Push/pull, active-high RESET - eliminates need for external pull-up and drives high-impedance μP reset pins directly |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial control environments |
| VCC Propagation Delay | 24µs (VCC falling at 10V/ms) - enables fast response to rapid supply collapse |
Pinout & Package
MAX6332UR20D3 is housed in a RoHS-compliant 3-pin SOT23 package (outline 21-0051, land pattern 90-0179), with 1.3mm × 0.8mm footprint and 0.95mm height - optimized for space-constrained portable PCB layouts.
| 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 | Active-high push/pull output; remains high during VCC undervoltage and for ≥100ms post-recovery - directly interfaces μP reset input without external components |
| 3 | VCC | Power supply input (0.7V–5.5V); powers internal circuitry and defines reset threshold reference - requires local 0.1µF ceramic decoupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

| Factory-trimmed 2.0V reset threshold | Eliminates external resistor divider calibration and reduces BOM count in 2.0V I/O domain systems |
| 100ms minimum reset timeout | Meets JEDEC JESD76 requirements for μP reset hold time in embedded controllers with slow clock startup |
| 3.3µA supply current at 1.8V | Reduces quiescent power by >90% versus discrete supervisor solutions using comparators and timers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6327UT20D3-T | Same 2.0V threshold and 100ms timeout, but open-drain active-low output; requires external pull-up resistor | Suitable for systems with bidirectional μP reset pins (e.g., legacy 68HC11) or wired-OR reset buses | Select MAX6327UT20D3-T only if active-low or open-drain interface is required; MAX6332UR20D3 avoids pull-up and simplifies layout |
| TLV803EB20DBZR | 2.0V threshold, 140ms timeout, active-low open-drain output; higher 8µA supply current; rated only to +85°C | Limited to commercial-temperature applications; lacks guaranteed operation below 1.0V VCC | Choose TLV803EB20DBZR only for cost-sensitive consumer designs where extended temperature and ultra-low-VCC operation are not required |
Compared with MAX6327UT20D3-T and TLV803EB20DBZR, the MAX6332UR20D3 uniquely delivers active-high push/pull output with 0.7V operational capability and full -40°C to +125°C qualification - making it the only option for space-constrained, battery-critical, and automotive-grade systems requiring no external components and deterministic high-level reset assertion.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6332UR20D3 and how does it vary with temperature?
The MAX6332UR20D3 has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 2.00V at +25°C, with tolerance of ±1.8%. Over the full operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, the threshold shifts to ±3%, meaning the actual trip point stays within 1.94V to 2.06V. This tight specification ensures consistent brownout detection across automotive and industrial thermal profiles without recalibration.
Does the MAX6332UR20D3 require any external components to function as a reset supervisor?
No, the MAX6332UR20D3 operates autonomously with no external resistors, capacitors, or diodes required. Its internal voltage reference, comparator, and timer eliminate the need for RC networks used in discrete reset circuits. Only a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor on VCC is recommended for local decoupling - a standard practice, not a functional requirement.
How does the active-high push/pull output of the MAX6332UR20D3 differ from open-drain alternatives like the MAX6334UR20D3?
The MAX6332UR20D3 actively drives RESET high during fault conditions and low during normal operation, eliminating reliance on external pull-up resistors. In contrast, the MAX6334UR20D3 uses an open-drain output requiring a pull-up, which introduces leakage paths and slower rise times. This makes the MAX6332UR20D3 preferable for high-impedance μP inputs and noise-sensitive applications where deterministic logic levels are critical.
What is the minimum supply voltage at which the MAX6332UR20D3 guarantees correct reset behavior?
The MAX6332UR20D3 guarantees correct reset assertion and deassertion down to VCC = 0.7V across the full -40°C to +125°C temperature range. At voltages below 0.7V, the device may not maintain valid output states; however, this limit aligns with the operational floor of most 1.8V/2.5V μPs, ensuring synchronized shutdown before logic corruption occurs.
Can the MAX6332UR20D3 be used in automotive applications, and what qualifications support this use?
Yes, the MAX6332UR20D3 is suitable for automotive body electronics applications. It is specified over -40°C to +125°C, features guaranteed operation down to 0.7V VCC (critical during cold-cranking), and exhibits transient immunity to 24µs supply glitches - characteristics aligned with ISO 7637-2 pulse 4 requirements. While not AEC-Q200 certified as a standalone component, its electrical behavior meets functional safety needs for non-safety-critical ECUs.
