Product details
Overview
MAX6333UR16D3 from Maxim Integrated is a push/pull active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit in SOT23-3 package, designed for 1.8V–3.3V digital systems. It monitors VCC and asserts RESET when voltage drops below 1.60V (±1.8% at +25°C), maintains reset for ≥100ms after recovery, operates down to 0.7V supply, draws only 3.0–6.0µA at 1.8V, and delivers low VOL (0.4V @ 50µA) for reliable µP reset signaling in battery-powered controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6333UR16D3 datasheet, MAX6333UR16D3 pinout, MAX6333UR16D3 application, or MAX6333UR16D3 equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, exact reset threshold and timeout, guaranteed operation to 0.7V, SOT23-3 terminal mapping, and validated alternatives for critical power-monitoring designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6333UR16D3 implements a precision bandgap-based reset comparator with factory-trimmed 1.60V threshold (±1.8% at +25°C, ±3% over –40°C to +125°C) and a fixed 100ms minimum reset timeout period. Its push/pull output drives RESET low actively during fault and high (0.8×VCC) when deasserted, ensuring deterministic logic levels without external pull-up.
It features ultra-low 3.3µA typical supply current at 3V, immunity to fast VCC transients (<24µs at 10V/ms), and guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = 0.7V - enabling robust brownout detection in space-constrained embedded systems powered by Li-ion or coin cells.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD3-T | 1.63V reset threshold (±2.5%), 240ms timeout, same SOT23-3 package | Longer timeout may delay system startup; higher threshold reduces margin for 1.8V rail monitoring | Select when longer reset hold time is required and 1.63V threshold aligns with system margin analysis |
| TPS3808G16DBVR | 1.60V threshold (±0.5%), 200ms timeout, 1.5µA ICC, but requires external capacitor for timeout setting | Lower ICC improves battery life, but added capacitor increases BOM and layout complexity | Select when ultra-low current dominates design priority and board space allows for external timing component |
Compared with MAX809TRD3-T and TPS3808G16DBVR, the MAX6333UR16D3 offers tighter threshold accuracy than MAX809 while maintaining fixed 100ms timeout and zero external components - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained 1.8V systems where predictable, minimal reset duration is critical.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6333UR16D3?
The MAX6333UR16D3 has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 1.60V, with ±1.8% tolerance at +25°C and ±3% over the full –40°C to +125°C operating range. This value is confirmed in Table 1 of the official datasheet and applies specifically to the "UR16" suffix variant of the MAX6333UR16D3.
Does MAX6333UR16D3 require any external components to function?
No, the MAX6333UR16D3 operates autonomously with no external components required. Its reset threshold is factory-trimmed, timeout is internally fixed at ≥100ms, and the push/pull output eliminates the need for a pull-up resistor - enabling true 3-pin simplicity in the SOT23-3 package.
What is the minimum supply voltage at which MAX6333UR16D3 guarantees correct RESET output behavior?
The MAX6333UR16D3 guarantees correct RESET assertion and deassertion down to VCC = 0.7V, as explicitly stated in the datasheet's Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. This ensures reliable brownout detection even during deep discharge of single-cell Li-ion or alkaline batteries.
How does the reset timeout period of MAX6333UR16D3 compare to other variants in the family?
The "D3" suffix in MAX6333UR16D3 denotes a nominal 100ms minimum reset timeout period. Other variants include D1 (1ms min) and D2 (20ms min). All timeouts are factory-programmed, temperature-stable, and do not require external timing components - unlike adjustable supervisors that rely on RC networks.
Is MAX6333UR16D3 pin-compatible with older Maxim reset ICs like MAX809?
Yes, the MAX6333UR16D3 is pin-compatible with MAX809/MAX810 and MAX6326/MAX6327/MAX6328 in the SOT23-3 package, sharing identical pin 1 (GND), pin 2 (RESET), and pin 3 (VCC) assignments. This allows direct replacement in existing layouts without PCB modification.
