Product details
Overview
MAX6334UR20D3+ from Maxim Integrated is an open-drain, active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit in a 3-pin SOT23 package, designed for ultra-low-voltage systems with VCC as low as 1.0V. It monitors 2.0V power rails (±3% threshold accuracy over -40°C to +125°C), asserts reset for ≥100ms after VCC rises above 2.00V, and draws only 3.3µA at 2.5V - enabling reliable power-on reset in battery-powered controllers and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6334UR20D3+ datasheet, MAX6334UR20D3+ pinout, MAX6334UR20D3+ application, or MAX6334UR20D3+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.0V factory-trimmed reset threshold, 100ms minimum timeout, open-drain output compatibility with bidirectional μP reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11), and guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1.0V - critical for low-power embedded monitoring where supply collapse immunity and minimal quiescent current are mandatory.
Technical Context
The MAX6334UR20D3+ implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with factory-trimmed 2.00V reset threshold (±1.8% at +25°C, ±3% over full temperature range) and hysteresis to reject fast transients on VCC. Its internal timer generates a fixed 100ms minimum reset timeout period after VCC exceeds VTH, independent of external components.
As an open-drain device, MAX6334UR20D3+ requires an external pull-up resistor to interface with μP reset inputs; it sinks up to 500µA at VCC ≥ 1.8V while holding RESET ≤ 0.3V, and exhibits <0.5µA leakage when inactive - ensuring clean signal integrity and compatibility with mixed-voltage logic domains.
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 accurate brownout detection for 2.0V nominal supplies |
| Reset Timeout Period | 100ms minimum - guarantees sufficient processor initialization time after power recovery |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - supports operation during deep brownout and enables use in 1.2V–3.3V digital systems |
| Quiescent Current | 3.3µA typical at 2.5V - minimizes battery drain in always-on monitoring applications |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low RESET - allows wired-OR configuration and direct interfacing with bidirectional μP reset pins |
| Reset Propagation Delay | 24µs max for VCC falling at 10V/ms - provides fast response to rapid supply collapse |

Pinout & Package
MAX6334UR20D3+ 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 designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for internal comparator and output stage; must be connected directly to system ground plane |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain active-low reset output; requires external pull-up resistor to VCC or higher logic rail for proper assertion |
| 3 | VCC | Power supply input (1.0V–5.5V); powers internal circuitry and defines reset threshold reference |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed 2.0V threshold | Eliminates need for external resistor divider or calibration, reducing BOM count and layout area |
| 100ms minimum reset timeout | Guarantees full μP core and peripheral initialization before release, preventing boot failures |
| 1.0V minimum operating voltage | Enables valid reset assertion during severe brownout conditions where VCC drops below 1.2V |
| 3.3µA supply current at 2.5V | Extends battery life in portable instruments and IoT edge nodes requiring continuous supervision |
| Transient-immune comparator | Rejects VCC glitches up to 24µs duration (at 100mV overdrive), avoiding false resets in noisy power environments |
Applications
| Industrial Controllers | Portable Medical Instruments |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: PLC I/O modules powered by 2.0V LDOs in harsh factory environments with frequent line disturbances.

Use Scenario: Handheld glucose meters using coin-cell batteries with discharge curves crossing 2.0V threshold during end-of-life. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Detects 2.0V supply collapse and triggers controlled shutdown via open-drain RESET tied to system PMIC enable line. Use Value: Avoids data loss and sensor misreads by enforcing safe power-down before VCC falls below ADC reference stability limits. |
| Automotive Body Control Modules | Smart Sensor Nodes |
Use Scenario: Under-dash BCMs exposed to cold cranking pulses where 12V battery dips cause 2.0V domain instability. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 2.0V microcontroller supply and drives open-drain RESET into CAN transceiver reset pin to synchronize communication recovery. Use Value: Ensures deterministic CAN bus reinitialization after cold-crank events, eliminating network arbitration errors. |
Use Scenario: Wireless vibration sensors powered by energy harvesters delivering intermittent 2.0V bursts. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Validates each 2.0V supply pulse and extends active window using 100ms timeout to allow full sensor readout and BLE transmission. Use Value: Maximizes usable energy per harvest cycle by preventing premature sleep mode entry during marginal supply conditions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326UT20D3+ | Same 2.0V threshold and 100ms timeout, but push/pull output; operates down to 0.7V VCC | Requires no pull-up resistor; unsuitable for wired-OR or bidirectional reset interfaces | Select when board-level simplicity and lowest possible VCC operation outweigh open-drain flexibility |
| TPS3808G20DBVR | 2.0V threshold, 100ms timeout, open-drain output; higher 8µA ICC at 2.5V; supports 0.8V–6.0V VCC | Broader supply range but higher quiescent current reduces battery lifetime in ultra-low-power use cases | Select when wider input voltage tolerance is needed and 5µA additional current drain is acceptable |
Compared with MAX6334UR20D3+, MAX6326UT20D3+ offers lower minimum VCC (0.7V vs. 1.0V) but lacks open-drain flexibility, while TPS3808G20DBVR extends voltage range at the cost of 2.4× higher supply current - making MAX6334UR20D3+ optimal for space- and energy-constrained 2.0V systems requiring robust bidirectional reset control.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for MAX6334UR20D3+ and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6334UR20D3+ has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 2.00V, with ±1.8% tolerance at +25°C and ±3% over the full -40°C to +125°C operating range. This stability ensures consistent brownout detection across automotive and industrial thermal environments without requiring recalibration or external compensation networks.
Does MAX6334UR20D3+ require an external pull-up resistor, and what value is recommended?
Yes, MAX6334UR20D3+ requires an external pull-up resistor on its open-drain RESET pin. A 10kΩ to 100kΩ resistor to VCC (or compatible logic rail) is recommended: lower values improve noise immunity and rise time, while higher values minimize current draw - typical designs use 47kΩ for balanced performance in 2.0V systems.
What is the minimum supply voltage at which MAX6334UR20D3+ guarantees correct reset assertion?
MAX6334UR20D3+ guarantees correct reset assertion and release behavior down to VCC = 1.0V at -40°C to +85°C, and down to VCC = 1.2V at -40°C to +125°C. Below these voltages, reset state is not guaranteed - distinguishing it from the MAX6332/MAX6333 variants rated to 0.7V.
Can MAX6334UR20D3+ interface directly with a microcontroller that has a bidirectional reset pin?
Yes, MAX6334UR20D3+ is specifically designed for this use case: its open-drain RESET output allows wired-OR connection with μP bidirectional reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11). With a single pull-up resistor, either the MAX6334UR20D3+ or the μP can assert reset - enabling coordinated system-level recovery without additional logic.
How does the 100ms reset timeout of MAX6334UR20D3+ behave across temperature and supply voltage variations?
The 100ms minimum reset timeout of MAX6334UR20D3+ is internally generated and remains stable across temperature (-40°C to +125°C) and supply voltage (1.0V to 5.5V). Typical characterization shows <±25% variation over temperature - ensuring the timeout stays well above 100ms under all specified conditions, critical for reliable μP initialization.
