Product details
Overview
MAX6359LSUT+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual-voltage microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-low push-pull reset referenced to VCC1, factory-set VCC1 threshold of 4.63V and VCC2 threshold of 2.93V, watchdog timer (46.4s startup / 2.9s normal timeout), and 20µA supply current. It ensures reliable power-on reset and fault detection in multivoltage embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6359LSUT+T datasheet, MAX6359LSUT+T pinout, MAX6359LSUT+T application, or MAX6359LSUT+T equivalent, key selection factors include dual-supply monitoring accuracy, guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC1 = 1V or VCC2 = 1V, debounced manual-reset input, and watchdog timing compatibility with boot-critical firmware sequences.
Technical Context
The MAX6359LSUT+T implements a dual-threshold comparator architecture that independently monitors VCC1 and VCC2 against precision factory-trimmed thresholds (4.63V and 2.93V respectively); reset assertion occurs if either supply drops below its trip point. Its internal watchdog timer features two distinct timeout modes: a 46.4s startup window for system initialization and a 2.9s normal mode for runtime processor activity verification.
Reset outputs are active-low push-pull referenced to VCC1, ensuring rail-to-rail logic levels without external pull-ups; the device guarantees functional operation over -40°C to +85°C and maintains valid reset state as long as either VCC1 ≥ 1.0V or VCC2 ≥ 1.0V - critical for brown-out resilience in battery-backed systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Threshold | 4.63V ±0.09V at +25°C; enables precise monitoring of 5V rails with 2% tolerance |
| VCC2 Threshold | 2.93V ±0.05V at +25°C; supports accurate supervision of 3.3V or 3.0V auxiliary supplies |
| Supply Current | 20µA typical; minimizes quiescent load on battery or low-power standby rails |
| Reset Timeout Period | 100–280ms; provides configurable power-on reset pulse width compliant with most μP requirements |
| Watchdog Startup Timeout | 46.4s; allows full system boot sequence completion before watchdog enforcement begins |
| Watchdog Normal Timeout | 2.9s; delivers rapid fault response during active processor operation |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial and extended-temperature embedded applications |
Pinout & Package
MAX6359LSUT+T is housed in a 6-pin SOT23 package (U6-1 outline, land pattern 90-0175), RoHS-compliant with lead-free termination (+T suffix).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RST | Active-low push-pull reset output referenced to VCC1; drives low without external pull-up |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuitry and reset output |
| 3 | MR | Debounced manual-reset input; asserted low forces reset for timeout period |
| 4 | VCC2 | Secondary supply input; powers device when above VCC1 and monitored at 2.93V threshold |
| 5 | WDI | Watchdog input; rising/falling edge resets timer; timeout triggers reset if idle >2.9s (normal) or >46.4s (startup) |
| 6 | VCC1 | Primary supply input; powers device when above VCC2 and monitored at 4.63V threshold |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage monitoring | Simultaneous supervision of two supplies (e.g., 5V core + 3.3V I/O) with no shared threshold dependency |
| Guaranteed RESET validity to 1V | Ensures deterministic reset behavior even during deep brown-out conditions on either supply rail |
| Factory-trimmed thresholds | Eliminates need for external resistor dividers or calibration; reduces BOM count and layout area |
| Watchdog with dual-mode timeout | Prevents false resets during boot while enabling fast fault detection during runtime operation |
| 20µA ultra-low supply current | Extends battery life in portable equipment and enables use in always-on monitoring circuits |
Applications
| Computers | Controllers |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Desktop motherboard power sequencing with separate 5V standby and 3.3V main rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-voltage supervisor asserting reset until both VCC1 (5V) and VCC2 (3.3V) stabilize above 4.63V and 2.93V respectively. Use Value: Prevents CPU execution before stable power delivery, eliminating boot failures caused by marginal rail transitions. | Use Scenario: PLC main controller board requiring fail-safe restart after power interruption. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 5V logic supply and 24V field bus supply (via resistive divider on RSTIN-compatible variants; not applicable here - MAX6359 uses only VCC1/VCC2). Use Value: Ensures deterministic reset pulse width (100–280ms) compatible with industrial μP reset timing requirements. |
| Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment | Multivoltage Systems |
Use Scenario: Handheld medical device with Li-ion battery (3.0–4.2V) and regulated 3.3V/1.8V subsystems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises primary 3.3V rail (VCC1 = 3.3V, threshold 2.93V) and secondary 1.8V rail (VCC2 = 1.8V, threshold 2.93V not applicable - actual VCC2 threshold is fixed at 2.93V; this variant requires VCC2 ≥ 2.93V, so not suitable for 1.8V monitoring - correction: MAX6359LSUT+T has VCC2 threshold 2.93V, thus suited for 3.3V or higher VCC2; for 1.8V, select _W/_V suffix. Therefore correct use case: VCC1 = 5V (threshold 4.63V), VCC2 = 3.3V (threshold 2.93V) in dual-rail portable host. Use Value: Ultra-low 20µA quiescent current preserves battery charge during sleep mode without compromising reset integrity. | Use Scenario: FPGA-based communication module with independent 12V analog, 3.3V digital, and 1.2V core supplies. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 5V auxiliary (VCC1) and 3.3V I/O (VCC2) rails using factory-set 4.63V/2.93V thresholds; integrates watchdog to detect firmware hangs. Use Value: Reduces component count versus discrete supervisors + external watchdog IC, simplifying layout and improving timing correlation between reset and watchdog events. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-voltage supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6359LTUT+T | VCC1 threshold 4.38V (vs. 4.63V); same VCC2 threshold (2.93V), package, and watchdog specs | Suitable where primary supply is 4.5V nominal instead of 5V; identical pinout and timing | Select when system VCC1 operates near 4.5V and requires tighter margin above 4.38V threshold |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Single-supply supervisor (3.3V threshold only); no VCC2 monitoring or watchdog timer | Lacks dual-voltage capability and watchdog - requires additional components for equivalent functionality | Choose only for simple single-rail systems where cost sensitivity outweighs feature completeness |
Compared with MAX6359LTUT+T, the MAX6359LSUT+T offers higher VCC1 trip point for robust 5V rail supervision; compared with TPS3808G33DBVR, it delivers integrated dual-rail monitoring and watchdog functionality in one chip, reducing design complexity and PCB area.
