Product details
Overview
MAX6337US16D3-T from Maxim Integrated is an open-drain, active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit designed for ultra-low-voltage power monitoring in 1.8V–3.3V digital systems. It asserts reset when VCC falls below 1.60V or manual reset (MR) is triggered, maintains reset for ≥100ms after recovery, draws only 3.3µA at 2.5V, and operates down to VCC = 1.0V - enabling reliable brownout detection in portable and automotive controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6337US16D3-T datasheet, MAX6337US16D3-T pinout, MAX6337US16D3-T application, or MAX6337US16D3-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its factory-trimmed 1.60V reset threshold, 100ms minimum timeout, SOT143-4 package compatibility with MAX811/MAX6314, and open-drain output optimized for bidirectional µP reset pins like those on Motorola 68HC11.
Technical Context
The MAX6337US16D3-T implements a precision bandgap-based reset comparator with ±1.8% (25°C) and ±3% (-40°C to +125°C) threshold tolerance, immune to fast VCC transients up to 24µs at 10V/ms slew rate. Its internal 20kΩ MR pull-up eliminates external components for manual reset functionality.
Reset assertion is synchronized to both VCC decay and MR logic-low events, with guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = 1.0V - distinct from the 0.7V spec of MAX6335/MAX6336 push/pull variants. The open-drain output requires an external pull-up resistor and supports wired-OR configurations with other reset sources.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 1.60V ±1.8% (25°C), ±3% (-40°C to +125°C) - ensures accurate brownout detection for 1.8V systems without calibration |
| Reset Timeout Period | ≥100ms - guarantees sufficient processor initialization time after power recovery |
| Supply Current | 3.3µA at VCC = 2.5V - enables multi-year battery life in portable equipment |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - supports operation during deep brownout while maintaining valid reset state |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low - allows direct interface to bidirectional µP reset pins and wired-OR reset buses |
| MR Input | Debounced, internally pulled up to VCC via 20kΩ - eliminates need for external RC debounce network |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control environments |
Pinout & Package
MAX6337US16D3-T is housed in a 4-pin SOT143 package (JEDEC TO-253-4), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm, with gull-wing leads and lead-free (RoHS-compliant) finish available as MAX6337US16D3+T.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for all internal comparators and logic; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain active-low output; requires external pull-up resistor (typically 10–100kΩ) to VCC or another logic rail |
| 3 | MR | Manual reset input; logic-low assertion triggers reset; internally pulled up to VCC (20kΩ), so left floating if unused |
| 4 | VCC | Power supply input; powers internal circuitry and defines reset threshold reference; operates from 1.0V to 5.5V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 1.60V with ±1.8% room-temp accuracy - eliminates external resistor divider and calibration effort |
| Ultra-low supply current | 3.3µA at 2.5V - reduces quiescent power in always-on monitoring circuits |
| Transient-immune reset comparator | Rejects VCC glitches ≤24µs at 10V/ms - prevents false resets during switching noise or ESD events |
| Guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1.0V | Valid RESET output state maintained until supply drops to 1.0V - critical for fail-safe shutdown sequencing |
| Pin-compatible footprint | Direct replacement for MAX811/MAX812 and MAX6314/MAX6315 - enables drop-in upgrade in existing designs |
Applications
| Automotive Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Portable Medical Monitor |
|---|---|
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6336US16D3-T | Push/pull active-low RESET output; guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = 0.7V | Requires no external pull-up; suitable for systems where RESET must remain asserted below 1.0V | Select when interfacing with high-impedance CMOS inputs that cannot tolerate floating states during deep brownout |
| MAX6314US16D3-T | Same 1.60V threshold and 100ms timeout, but lacks MR input and uses different internal architecture | Not suitable for manual reset applications; limited to power-only supervision | Choose only when manual reset functionality is unnecessary and legacy MAX6314 footprint reuse is required |
Compared with MAX6337US16D3-T, the MAX6336US16D3-T offers stronger low-VCC reset assurance but sacrifices wired-OR flexibility, while the MAX6314US16D3-T reduces feature set to cut cost - making MAX6337US16D3-T optimal for bidirectional reset bus integration with manual override capability.

FAQ
What is the factory-trimmed reset threshold voltage for MAX6337US16D3-T?
The MAX6337US16D3-T has a factory-trimmed 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 laser-trimmed during production and specified in Table 1 of the datasheet; it enables accurate brownout detection for 1.8V systems without external calibration components.
Does MAX6337US16D3-T support manual reset functionality, and how is it implemented?
Yes, MAX6337US16D3-T includes a debounced manual-reset input (MR) pin. A logic-low pulse on MR asserts reset regardless of VCC level, and reset remains active for ≥100ms after MR returns high. An internal 20kΩ pull-up resistor allows MR to be left unconnected when unused - eliminating external passive components required by most discrete reset solutions.
Why does MAX6337US16D3-T use an open-drain output instead of push/pull?
The open-drain output on MAX6337US16D3-T enables wired-OR reset bus configurations and direct interface with microcontrollers featuring bidirectional reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11). Unlike push/pull variants, it avoids contention when multiple reset sources share the same line - a critical requirement in complex embedded systems where FPGA, PMIC, and µP may all drive reset.
What is the minimum VCC voltage at which MAX6337US16D3-T guarantees valid RESET output behavior?
MAX6337US16D3-T guarantees valid RESET output behavior down to VCC = 1.0V, unlike the 0.7V specification of MAX6335/MAX6336. Below 1.0V, sinking capability degrades and RESET may float; this is intentional design trade-off to optimize for open-drain interoperability rather than sub-1V operation.
Is MAX6337US16D3-T pin-compatible with older Maxim supervisors like MAX811?
Yes, MAX6337US16D3-T is pin-compatible with MAX811/MAX812 and MAX6314/MAX6315 in the SOT143-4 package. Pin 1 = GND, Pin 2 = RESET, Pin 3 = MR, Pin 4 = VCC - identical layout and footprint. This allows direct drop-in replacement in legacy designs, provided the open-drain output and 1.0V VCC lower limit are verified in the target application.
