Product details
Overview
MAX6348UR40-T from Maxim Integrated is an open-drain, active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit designed to monitor 4.0V power supplies in embedded systems. It asserts reset when VCC falls below 4.00V (±2.5% over temperature), maintains reset for ≥100ms after VCC recovery, draws ≤1µA supply current at 3V, operates from 1.2V to 5.5V, and is housed in a 3-pin SOT23 package for space-constrained applications such as portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6348UR40-T datasheet, MAX6348UR40-T pinout, MAX6348UR40-T application, or MAX6348UR40-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its factory-trimmed 4.0V reset threshold, open-drain output compatibility with bidirectional µP reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11), immunity to fast VCC transients, guaranteed operation down to 1V supply, and SOT23-3 footprint compatibility with legacy MAX809/MAX810 designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6348UR40-T implements a precision bandgap-based reset comparator with 40ppm/°C tempco and 9.5mV hysteresis, ensuring stable threshold behavior across -40°C to +85°C. Its open-drain RESET output requires an external pull-up and supports bidirectional reset arbitration in µP systems.
It features transient immunity: negative-going VCC glitches ≤100mV overdrive are tolerated up to ~150µs at room temperature, per the Maximum Transient Duration vs. Reset Threshold Overdrive curve. Power-on reset timeout is guaranteed ≥100ms and extends to 280ms maximum over temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.000V ±2.5% over -40°C to +85°C - ensures reliable brownout detection for 4.0V nominal rails |
| Supply Current | ≤1.0µA max at 3V - enables multi-year battery life in portable equipment |
| Reset Timeout | 100ms to 280ms - guarantees sufficient initialization time for slow-starting µPs and peripherals |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low RESET - allows wired-OR configuration and direct interface with bidirectional µP reset pins |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2V to 5.5V - supports operation during deep brownout and compatibility with diverse logic families |
| Reset Hysteresis | 9.5mV - prevents chatter near threshold during noisy or slowly recovering supply conditions |
| Leakage Current | ≤0.1µA on RESET - minimizes pull-up resistor power loss in always-on monitoring circuits |

Use Value: Eliminates need for external logic or MOSFET-level translators, reducing BOM count and PCB area in cost-sensitive designs. |
Use Scenario: Replacement for obsolete MAX809SUR-T in existing SOT23-3 footprint designs requiring 4.0V reset threshold. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Pin-compatible supervisory IC delivering identical 4.0V threshold, open-drain output, and 100ms+ timeout in same SOT23-3 package. Use Value: Enables drop-in replacement without layout change or firmware modification-critical for sustaining legacy industrial equipment. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809SUR-T | Same 4.0V threshold, open-drain output, SOT23-3 package, but higher 10µA supply current and no guaranteed operation below 1.8V | Limited to newer 1.8V+ systems; lacks deep-brownout capability for battery-backed designs | Select MAX809SUR-T only if legacy qualification or lower-cost sourcing is prioritized over ultra-low power |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V fixed threshold, push-pull output, 1.5µA supply current, wider -40°C to +125°C rating | Not suitable for 4.0V rails; requires redesign for push-pull interface and different reset timing (200ms min) | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR only for new 3.3V automotive designs needing extended temperature range-not for MAX6348UR40-T replacement |
Compared with MAX809SUR-T, MAX6348UR40-T delivers 10× lower supply current and 0.6V lower minimum VCC operation, enabling longer battery life and deeper brownout tolerance; versus TPS3808G33DBVR, it offers precise 4.0V threshold and open-drain flexibility but lacks extended temperature support.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6348UR40-T and how tightly is it specified?
The MAX6348UR40-T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 4.000V, with a tolerance of ±1.5% at +25°C and ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. This specification is guaranteed by production testing, not just design simulation, and is documented in the Electrical Characteristics table of the official datasheet.
Does the MAX6348UR40-T require an external pull-up resistor on its RESET pin?
Yes, the MAX6348UR40-T features an open-drain RESET output and requires an external pull-up resistor to a valid voltage rail (typically VCC or another logic-compatible supply). The datasheet specifies that RESET sinks up to 1.6mA when asserted, so a standard 4.7kΩ–10kΩ resistor provides appropriate current limiting and logic-level compatibility.
Can the MAX6348UR40-T operate reliably when the VCC supply drops below 2.0V?
Yes, the MAX6348UR40-T is fully specified to operate down to 1.2V VCC over temperature, and its internal reset comparator remains functional and correctly states the RESET output even at 1.0V (guaranteed by design). This makes the MAX6348UR40-T suitable for deep brownout detection and battery end-of-life monitoring in portable systems.
Is the MAX6348UR40-T pin-compatible with the MAX809 series?
Yes, the MAX6348UR40-T uses the same 3-pin SOT23-3 package and identical pinout (GND, RESET, VCC) as the MAX809SUR-T and related variants. Its open-drain output and 4.0V threshold match the MAX809SUR-T functionally, enabling direct drop-in replacement in existing layouts without PCB modification.
What is the maximum duration of a VCC transient that the MAX6348UR40-T can ignore without asserting reset?
At a 100mV overdrive (i.e., VCC dipping 100mV below the 4.0V threshold), the MAX6348UR40-T can tolerate transients up to approximately 150µs without generating a false reset pulse, as shown in the "Maximum Transient Duration vs. Reset Threshold Overdrive" graph in the Typical Operating Characteristics section of the datasheet.
