Product details
Overview
MAX6343RUT-T from Maxim Integrated is a precision microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-low open-drain reset output, factory-trimmed 2.63V VCC reset threshold, +1.25V power-fail comparator input (PFI), and guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = +1V. It operates across -40°C to +125°C in portable/battery-powered systems requiring reliable brownout detection and orderly shutdown signaling.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6343RUT-T datasheet, MAX6343RUT-T pinout, MAX6343RUT-T application, or MAX6343RUT-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its open-drain reset configuration, 100ms minimum reset timeout, PFI-based low-battery warning capability, and SOT23-6 package compatibility with space-constrained embedded control designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6343RUT-T integrates a precision voltage detector for VCC monitoring and a separate +1.25V reference-based comparator for PFI, enabling independent power-fail warning generation. Its reset assertion logic responds to both VCC crossing the 2.63V threshold and debounced manual-reset (MR) input transitions.
Unlike push-pull variants, the open-drain RESET output requires an external pull-up resistor-supporting level-shifting across supply domains up to +5.5V-and guarantees sink capability of 3.2mA at VCC > 4.5V with VOL ≤ 0.4V. MR input is CMOS-compatible with 0.3×VCC/0.7×VCC thresholds and 1µs glitch rejection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Reset Threshold | 2.63V ±25mV (factory-trimmed; ensures precise brownout detection at nominal system supply) |
| RESET Output Type | Active-low open-drain (enables wired-OR reset buses and multi-supply level translation via external pull-up) |
| Reset Timeout Period | 100ms min (guaranteed reset pulse width after VCC rise or MR release; prevents premature µP boot) |
| PFI Input Threshold | +1.25V ±100mV (stable reference for external voltage divider; supports low-battery or secondary supply monitoring) |
| Supply Voltage Range | +1.0V to +5.5V (ensures valid reset assertion even during deep brownout conditions) |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C (qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial embedded environments) |
| Supply Current | 1.2µA typical at VCC = 3V (ultra-low quiescent current extends battery life in portable equipment) |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin SOT23-6 (1.6mm × 2.9mm × 1.1mm body; JEDEC MO-178AA compliant).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VCC | Positive supply input | Primary power rail input; powers internal comparators and logic; supports 1.0V–5.5V operation |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Analog and digital ground return; must be low-impedance path for accurate threshold sensing |
| 3 - PFI | Power-fail monitor input | Connects to voltage divider; asserts PFO when voltage falls below +1.25V (e.g., battery sag or regulator dropout) |
| 4 - PFO | Power-fail output | Active-low open-drain signal; used to trigger µP interrupt or initiate controlled shutdown before main supply collapse |
| 5 - MR | Manual-reset input | CMOS-compatible active-low input; debounced internally; forces reset when pulled low (e.g., pushbutton interface) |
| 6 - RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output | Sinks current when asserted; requires external pull-up; compatible with 3.3V/5V I/O domains and shared reset buses |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision factory-set reset threshold | 2.63V with ±25mV tolerance over full temperature range ensures consistent brownout response without calibration |
| Guaranteed RESET validity to VCC = +1V | Enables robust reset assertion during deep undervoltage events where other supervisors fail silently |
| Independent +1.25V PFI comparator | Allows early-warning detection of secondary supply failure or battery depletion without affecting reset timing |
| Debounced MR input with 1µs glitch rejection | Eliminates need for external RC filtering; supports direct pushbutton connection in noisy industrial environments |
| Ultra-low 1.2µA supply current | Minimizes standby power draw in always-on battery-backed systems such as smart meters and IoT edge nodes |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6342RUT-T | Active-low push-pull RESET output (no external pull-up required); identical VCC threshold and PFI/PFO functionality | Better suited for single-rail systems where RESET must drive µP directly without level translation | Select MAX6342RUT-T when board layout lacks space for pull-up resistor or when driving high-capacitance reset lines |
| TLV803EB26DBZR | 2.63V reset threshold, SOT23-5 package, no PFI/PFO functionality, 35µA supply current | Lacks power-fail warning capability; suitable only for basic reset supervision without secondary monitoring | Choose TLV803EB26DBZR only if PFI/PFO is unnecessary and ultra-low cost is prioritized over feature set |
Compared with MAX6342RUT-T, the MAX6343RUT-T trades push-pull drive for open-drain flexibility and multi-supply compatibility; compared with TLV803EB26DBZR, it adds critical PFI-based early-warning capability and cuts supply current by >96%, making it superior for battery-critical and multivoltage applications.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6343RUT-T?
The MAX6343RUT-T has a factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold of 2.63V, with a guaranteed tolerance of ±25mV over the full -40°C to +125°C operating temperature range. This value is laser-trimmed during production and specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of the MAX6342–MAX6345 datasheet. The 'R' suffix in MAX6343RUT-T explicitly denotes the 2.63V variant.
Does the MAX6343RUT-T provide power-fail warning capability?
Yes, the MAX6343RUT-T includes a dedicated +1.25V precision reference-based power-fail comparator. The PFI pin accepts an external voltage (e.g., from a resistor divider), and when that voltage falls below +1.25V, the PFO pin asserts low-providing early warning of battery depletion or secondary supply collapse independent of the main reset function.
What is the required external pull-up resistor value for the MAX6343RUT-T's open-drain RESET output?
No single value is mandated, but a 10kΩ pull-up to the target logic supply (up to +5.5V) is sufficient in most applications. The MAX6343RUT-T guarantees RESET sink capability of 3.2mA at VCC > 4.5V with VOL ≤ 0.4V, so the resistor must be small enough to maintain logic-low levels under worst-case load yet large enough to avoid excessive current draw during assertion. Values between 4.7kΩ and 100kΩ are commonly used.
Can the MAX6343RUT-T operate reliably during deep brownout conditions?
Yes-the MAX6343RUT-T is guaranteed to assert a valid RESET signal down to VCC = +1.0V, unlike many supervisors that cease functioning below 2.0V. This ensures deterministic reset behavior even during severe undervoltage transients, supporting robust system recovery in battery-powered and unregulated supply applications.
Is the MAX6343RUT-T pin-compatible with other members of the MAX6342–MAX6345 family?
Yes, all MAX6342–MAX6345 devices share identical 6-pin SOT23-6 pinouts and footprint. The MAX6343RUT-T uses pins 1–6 for VCC, GND, PFI, PFO, MR, and RESET respectively-matching MAX6342RUT-T and MAX6344RUT-T. Functionally, only the RESET output type differs (open-drain vs. push-pull), requiring minor schematic updates for pull-up placement.
