Product details
Overview
The MAX6334UR18D3+T from Maxim Integrated is an open-drain, active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit designed for 1.8V power supply monitoring in space-constrained embedded systems. It asserts reset when VCC falls below 1.80V (±1.8% at +25°C), maintains reset for ≥100ms after VCC recovers, draws only 3.0–6.0µA at 1.8V, and operates down to VCC = 1.0V over –40°C to +125°C - enabling reliable brownout detection in battery-powered controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6334UR18D3+T datasheet, MAX6334UR18D3+T pinout, MAX6334UR18D3+T application, or MAX6334UR18D3+T equivalent, this device is selected for ultra-low-voltage reset supervision where open-drain output compatibility with bidirectional μP reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11), transient immunity, and SOT23-3 footprint are critical design requirements.
Technical Context
The MAX6334UR18D3+T implements a factory-trimmed bandgap-based voltage comparator with hysteresis to detect VCC drops below its 1.80V threshold. Its internal timer generates a guaranteed minimum 100ms reset timeout after VCC rises above threshold, independent of supply ramp rate.
As an open-drain output device, it requires an external pull-up resistor and interfaces directly with microcontrollers having bidirectional reset inputs. Its reset assertion remains valid down to VCC = 1.0V - unlike push/pull variants - but does not guarantee RESET validity at VCC < 1.0V due to reduced sink capability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 1.80V ±1.8% at +25°C; ±3% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures precise 1.8V rail supervision without external calibration. |
| Reset Timeout Period | ≥100ms (min) - guarantees sufficient processor initialization time after power recovery. |
| Supply Current | 3.0–6.0µA at VCC = 1.8V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered portable instruments. |
| Operating VCC Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - supports supervision during deep brownout and full-system voltage range. |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low - allows wired-OR reset bus sharing and direct interface with bidirectional μP reset pins. |
| Reset Propagation Delay | 24µs (VCC falling at 10V/ms) - provides fast response to rapid supply collapse. |
| Temperature Range | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial control environments. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6334UR18D3+T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 3-pin SOT23-3 package (outline 21-0051), with 0.95mm pitch, 1.3mm × 2.9mm footprint, and thermal pad omitted - optimized for high-density PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for reset comparator and output stage; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain active-low output; requires external pull-up resistor (typically 10kΩ–100kΩ) to VCC or another logic rail. |
| 3 | VCC | Power supply input (1.0V–5.5V); powers internal comparator, timer, and output FET - no decoupling capacitor required due to ultra-low ICC. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed 1.80V threshold | Eliminates need for external resistive divider or trimming components - reduces BOM count and layout area. |
| 100ms minimum reset timeout | Ensures μP completes internal boot sequence before release, even with slow VCC ramp rates. |
| 1.0V minimum operating voltage | Enables reset assertion during severe brownout conditions where push/pull variants (0.7V min) may fail to hold state. |
| Open-drain output architecture | Permits shared reset bus with multiple supervisors or μPs; supports level-shifting via pull-up to non-VCC rail. |
| Transient immunity up to 24µs | Rejects short negative VCC glitches (e.g., switching noise) without false resets - improves system robustness. |
Applications
| Industrial Controllers | Portable Medical Instruments |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: PLC I/O modules powered by 1.8V LDOs in harsh electrical environments with frequent line transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 1.8V core supply and asserts open-drain RESET to ARM Cortex-M4 microcontroller during brownout. Use Value: Prevents firmware corruption by ensuring reset persists ≥100ms after VCC recovers - matching processor boot timing requirements. |
Use Scenario: Handheld glucose meters using coin-cell batteries where supply voltage sags below 1.8V during peak current draw. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 1.8V rail and forces system reset before analog front-end ADC misreads due to undervoltage. Use Value: Ultra-low 3.0µA supply current extends battery life beyond 2 years while maintaining accurate 1.80V threshold tolerance. |
| Automotive Body Control Modules | Smart Sensor Nodes |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides temperature-stable reset supervision for 1.8V MCU domain across full automotive grade range. Use Value: ±3% threshold variation over –40°C to +125°C eliminates need for derating or guard-banding in safety-critical reset paths. |
Use Scenario: Wireless IoT sensor nodes with intermittent wake-up cycles and strict energy budgeting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as primary power-on and brownout detector for ultra-low-power RISC-V SoC with bidirectional reset pin. Use Value: Open-drain output enables direct connection to SoC's shared reset bus without level translators or additional logic. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6333UR18D3+T | Push/pull active-low RESET output; operates down to 0.7V VCC; identical threshold and timeout. | Requires no pull-up resistor; unsuitable for wired-OR reset buses or bidirectional μP pins. | Select when board-level reset signal must drive multiple loads directly without external components. |
| TLV809K33DBZR | Fixed 3.08V reset threshold; SOT23-3; 140ms timeout; 0.9V min VCC; push/pull output. | Not suitable for 1.8V rail supervision; incompatible threshold and output structure. | Consider only if redesigning for higher-voltage rails and simpler push/pull drive is acceptable. |
Compared with MAX6334UR18D3+T, the MAX6333UR18D3+T offers lower minimum VCC (0.7V vs. 1.0V) but lacks open-drain flexibility, while TLV809K33DBZR serves different voltage domains entirely - making MAX6334UR18D3+T uniquely suited for 1.8V open-drain reset applications requiring guaranteed 1.0V operation.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6334UR18D3+T?
The MAX6334UR18D3+T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 1.80V, 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 "UR18" suffix variant of the MAX6334UR18D3+T.
Does the MAX6334UR18D3+T require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
Yes, the MAX6334UR18D3+T features an open-drain active-low RESET output and requires an external pull-up resistor - typically 10kΩ to 100kΩ - connected between the RESET pin and the target logic rail (e.g., VCC or another compatible voltage). This is mandatory for proper logic-level translation and bus sharing, as specified in the Applications Information section of the MAX6334UR18D3+T datasheet.
What is the minimum supply voltage at which the MAX6334UR18D3+T guarantees correct reset behavior?
The MAX6334UR18D3+T guarantees correct reset assertion and timeout behavior down to VCC = 1.0V over the full –40°C to +125°C temperature range. This differs from the MAX6332/MAX6333 variants (0.7V min) and is explicitly stated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables for the MAX6334UR18D3+T.
Can the MAX6334UR18D3+T be used with microcontrollers that have bidirectional reset pins?
Yes, the MAX6334UR18D3+T is specifically designed for interfacing with microcontrollers having bidirectional reset pins - such as the Motorola 68HC11 - due to its open-drain output. The datasheet confirms this capability in the Applications Information section, showing direct connection with a single pull-up resistor enabling either the supervisor or μP to assert reset on the shared line.
What is the guaranteed minimum reset timeout period for the MAX6334UR18D3+T?
The MAX6334UR18D3+T guarantees a minimum reset timeout period of 100ms after VCC rises above the 1.80V threshold. This value is fixed by the "D3" suffix in the part number and is validated across temperature and supply voltage per the Electrical Characteristics table, ensuring reliable processor initialization timing.
