Product details
Overview
MAX6355TWUT-T from Maxim Integrated is a triple-voltage microprocessor supervisory circuit with open-drain active-low reset output, 3.08V VCC1 threshold, 1.67V VCC2 threshold, and adjustable third-voltage monitoring input (RSTIN) with 1.22V internal reference. It operates over –40°C to +85°C in a 6-pin SOT23 package and supports systems requiring independent monitoring of three supply rails - e.g., +3.3V core, +1.8V I/O, and a custom analog rail.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6355TWUT-T datasheet, MAX6355TWUT-T pinout, MAX6355TWUT-T application, or MAX6355TWUT-T equivalent, this device is selected for multivoltage embedded systems where guaranteed reset validity down to VCC1 = 1V or VCC2 = 1V, low 20µA quiescent current, and precise factory-set thresholds are critical for reliable power-on sequencing and fault detection.
Technical Context
The MAX6355TWUT-T implements dual-supply monitoring (VCC1/VCC2) plus a dedicated RSTIN comparator referenced to VCC1, enabling simultaneous supervision of three independent voltage domains. Its reset assertion logic triggers if any monitored supply falls below its specified threshold - VTH1 = 3.08V (±0.08V over temperature), VTH2 = 1.67V (±0.05V), or RSTIN < 1.22V (±0.03V).
It features an open-drain RST output with guaranteed VOL ≤ 0.3V at ISINK = 50µA when VCC ≥ 1.2V, and supports manual reset via debounced MR input. Unlike MAX6358–MAX6360 variants, it excludes watchdog functionality - confirmed by absence of WDI pin and omission from watchdog timing tables.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Threshold | 3.08V ±0.08V (–40°C to +85°C); ensures reliable reset assertion when primary 3.3V rail drops below safe operating level |
| VCC2 Threshold | 1.67V ±0.05V (–40°C to +85°C); enables accurate monitoring of low-voltage rails such as 1.8V or 1.5V I/O supplies |
| RSTIN Threshold | 1.22V ±0.03V (–40°C to +85°C); allows external resistive divider to set custom reset point for third voltage domain |
| Supply Current | 20µA typical (VCC1 = 5.5V, VCC2 = 3.6V); minimizes impact on battery life in portable equipment |
| Reset Timeout | 100ms minimum pulse width; meets JEDEC JESD8-12B requirement for stable processor initialization |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C extended range; qualified for industrial and automotive under-hood applications |
| Package | 6-pin SOT23 (U6-1); footprint-compatible with standard high-density PCB layouts and automated assembly |
Pinout & Package
MAX6355TWUT-T is housed in a 6-pin SOT23 package (outline 21-0058, land pattern 90-0175), with pins arranged in standard top-view configuration: Pin 1 = RST (open-drain), Pin 2 = GND, Pin 3 = MR, Pin 4 = VCC2, Pin 5 = RSTIN, Pin 6 = VCC1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RST | Active-low open-drain reset output | Pulled low during fault; requires external pull-up for logic-high state; compatible with 1.8V–5.5V host logic |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal comparators and reset generator; must be low-impedance |
| 3 - MR | Debounced manual-reset input | Pull low to force reset; internally pulled up (~63.5kΩ); glitch rejection >100ns |
| 4 - VCC2 | Secondary supply input & monitor | Monitors 1.67V rail; powers internal circuitry when VCC2 > VCC1; valid down to 1.0V |
| 5 - RSTIN | Adjustable undervoltage-comparator input | Accepts external voltage divider; asserts reset if input falls below 1.22V; powered by VCC1 |
| 6 - VCC1 | Primary supply input & monitor | Monitors 3.08V rail; powers internal circuitry when VCC1 > VCC2; valid down to 1.0V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple-voltage supervision | Simultaneously monitors VCC1 (3.08V), VCC2 (1.67V), and third rail via RSTIN (1.22V ref) - eliminates need for discrete comparators |
| Guaranteed reset validity | RST remains functional as long as either VCC1 ≥ 1.0V or VCC2 ≥ 1.0V - ensures fail-safe behavior during brownout |
| Factory-trimmed thresholds | VTH1 = 3.08V and VTH2 = 1.67V calibrated at wafer test; ±0.08V/±0.05V tolerance over full temperature range |
| Low-power operation | 20µA supply current enables use in always-on subsystems without compromising battery runtime |
| No external components required | Integrated comparators, glitch filter, and reset timer eliminate external RC networks and reduce BOM count |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple-voltage supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6356TWUT-T | Push-pull RST1 output referenced to VCC1 (vs. open-drain RST in MAX6355TWUT-T); identical thresholds and RSTIN specs | Requires no external pull-up; better suited for driving heavy capacitive loads directly | Select when interfacing to processors without internal pull-ups or when minimizing external components is critical |
| TPS3808G30DBVR | Dual-voltage supervisor only (no RSTIN); 3.0V VDD1 threshold, 2.93V VDD2 threshold; 350nA quiescent current | Lacks third-voltage monitoring capability; lower ICC but no RSTIN flexibility | Choose only if third-rail supervision is unnecessary and ultra-low power (<1µA) is prioritized over feature set |
Compared with MAX6356TWUT-T, MAX6355TWUT-T offers open-drain flexibility for mixed-voltage logic interfacing, while TPS3808G30DBVR trades RSTIN capability for sub-µA standby current - making MAX6355TWUT-T the sole option among these three that delivers verified triple-rail supervision in a production-ready 6-pin SOT23.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for VCC1 and VCC2 on the MAX6355TWUT-T?
The MAX6355TWUT-T has a factory-set VCC1 threshold of 3.08V (±0.08V over –40°C to +85°C) and a VCC2 threshold of 1.67V (±0.05V over temperature). These values are laser-trimmed during production and documented in the Voltage Threshold Levels table of the MAX6351–MAX6360 datasheet. The "TW" suffix explicitly denotes this threshold pair, and both values are guaranteed across the full operating range without external calibration.
Does the MAX6355TWUT-T include a watchdog timer function?
No, the MAX6355TWUT-T does not include a watchdog timer. Watchdog functionality is exclusive to the MAX6358/MAX6359/MAX6360 variants, which feature WDI pin and dual-mode timeout periods (46.4s startup / 2.9s normal). The MAX6355TWUT-T pinout shows RSTIN at Pin 5 - not WDI - and its Selector Guide entry confirms absence of watchdog capability. This makes MAX6355TWUT-T appropriate for systems requiring triple-voltage supervision without watchdog overhead.
How is the third-voltage monitoring implemented on the MAX6355TWUT-T?
The MAX6355TWUT-T implements third-voltage monitoring via the RSTIN pin (Pin 5), which connects to an internal comparator with a fixed 1.22V threshold (±0.03V). To supervise a voltage higher than 1.22V - such as 2.5V or 5V - an external resistive divider scales the input to match the 1.22V reference. The MAX6355TWUT-T datasheet provides the exact formula: VEXT = 1.22V × (R1 + R2)/R2. RSTIN is powered by VCC1, so its input voltage must not exceed VCC1.
What is the output type of the reset signal on the MAX6355TWUT-T?
The MAX6355TWUT-T provides an active-low open-drain RST output at Pin 1. This requires an external pull-up resistor to the desired logic rail (e.g., 3.3V or 1.8V) and allows wired-OR connection with other reset sources. The output guarantees VOL ≤ 0.3V at ISINK = 50µA when VCC ≥ 1.2V, and remains valid as long as either VCC1 or VCC2 stays above 1.0V - a key differentiator from push-pull alternatives like MAX6356TWUT-T.
Is the MAX6355TWUT-T RoHS-compliant and what does the "-T" suffix indicate?
Yes, the MAX6355TWUT-T is RoHS-compliant. The "-T" suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging in lead(Pb)-free format per JEDEC J-STD-020. Maxim specifies lead-free versions by replacing "-T" with "+T" only for legacy ordering - the standard -T version shipped since 2014 meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is compatible with standard reflow profiles.
