Product details
Overview
MAX6361PUT46+ from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with factory-preset 4.63V reset threshold, manual reset input (MR), and active-low open-drain RESET output. It operates from +1.2V supply, provides 150ms minimum reset timeout, and enables battery switchover for SRAM backup in brownout conditions. Used in portable instrumentation and industrial controllers requiring reliable power-up/down sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6361PUT46+ datasheet, MAX6361PUT46+ pinout, MAX6361PUT46+ application, or MAX6361PUT46+ equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed reset assertion down to 1.2V VCC/VBATT, ±20mV hysteresis for battery switchover, debounced MR input with internal 20kΩ pull-up, and SOT23-6 package compatibility with space-constrained embedded designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6361PUT46+ integrates precision voltage monitoring, manual reset control, and battery-backed power path management in a single BiCMOS IC. Its reset comparator uses a trimmed bandgap reference to achieve ±1.5% threshold accuracy over -40°C to +85°C, and the MR input includes internal debouncing logic eliminating external RC networks.
It implements dual-supply operation: OUT sources from VCC when above 4.63V, and automatically switches to BATT when VCC falls below (VBATT − 0.2V) with 40mV hysteresis. The RESET output remains asserted for ≥150ms after VCC recovery, ensuring µP initialization completes before execution resumes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.63V (factory preset, ±1.5% over temperature) - ensures reliable detection of +5V rail collapse before µP malfunction. |
| Supply Voltage Range | +1.2V to +5.5V - supports operation during deep brownout and battery-backup mode without latch-up. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 150ms minimum - guarantees sufficient hold time for µP power-on reset sequence completion. |
| Supply Current (VCC) | 15µA typical at +25°C - enables multi-year battery life in always-on backup applications. |
| Battery Standby Current | 0.05µA max at -40°C to +85°C - minimizes drain on coin-cell batteries during extended storage. |
| MR Input Pull-Up | 20kΩ internal to VCC - eliminates need for external resistor; compatible with TTL/CMOS logic drive. |
| Output Type | Active-low open-drain RESET - allows wired-OR configuration with other reset sources and flexible voltage-level translation. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin SOT23 (U6-1 outline, 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm height), RoHS-compliant lead-free (+T suffix).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output | Asserts low during VCC < 4.63V, MR low, or power failure; requires external pull-up for logic-high state. |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return for VCC, BATT, and all internal comparators; must be low-impedance connection. |
| 3 - MR | Manual reset input | Logic-low assertion triggers reset; internal 20kΩ pull-up to VCC; debounced internally - no external RC needed. |
| 4 - VCC | Main supply input | Primary power source; powers internal circuitry and supplies OUT when above reset threshold. |
| 5 - OUT | Power output | Delivers regulated power to SRAM; sourced from VCC if >4.63V, else from BATT if VBATT > (VCC + 0.2V). |
| 6 - BATT | Backup battery input | Connects to coin cell or supercap; enables seamless switchover when VCC fails; draws <1µA in standby. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed 4.63V reset threshold | ±1.5% accuracy over full temperature range eliminates calibration overhead in production test. |
| Integrated MR debouncing | Eliminates need for external RC filter or firmware debounce, reducing BOM count and PCB area. |
| Guaranteed reset operation down to 1.2V | Ensures valid reset signaling even during severe brownout or battery depletion scenarios. |
| 40mV hysteresis on battery switchover | Prevents oscillation during slow VCC ramp-down; enables clean transition between main and backup power. |
| Low 15µA quiescent current | Extends battery life in always-on backup systems - e.g., 10-year operation on CR2032 at 2.8V. |
Applications
| Portable Medical Instrumentation | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6361HUT46+ | Same 4.63V threshold and MR function, but active-high push-pull RESET output instead of open-drain. | Requires no external pull-up; incompatible with wired-OR reset buses or level-shifting interfaces. | Select when driving a single µP reset pin directly and board layout prohibits external pull-up resistors. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V fixed reset threshold, 350ms timeout, 2.9µA supply current; no battery switchover or MR input. | Designed for simple power-good monitoring only; lacks backup power management capability. | Choose only for basic 3.3V rail supervision where battery backup and manual reset are unnecessary. |
Compared with MAX6361PUT46+, MAX6361HUT46+ offers simplified interface at the cost of bus-sharing flexibility, while TPS3808G33DBVR reduces quiescent current by 60% but omits critical battery-switchover functionality required for SRAM retention.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6361PUT46+?
The MAX6361PUT46+ has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 4.63V, with guaranteed accuracy of ±1.5% over the full operating temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). This value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the official datasheet and applies specifically to the "46" suffix variant. The MAX6361PUT46+ uses this precise threshold to reliably detect failure of standard +5V power rails before microprocessor malfunction occurs.
Does the MAX6361PUT46+ support battery switchover, and how does it work?
Yes, the MAX6361PUT46+ supports automatic battery switchover via its BATT and OUT pins. When VCC falls below the 4.63V reset threshold and VBATT exceeds (VCC + 0.2V), the device connects the backup battery to OUT to maintain SRAM power. A 40mV hysteresis prevents oscillation during slow VCC decay. The MAX6361PUT46+ draws only 0.05µA from the battery in standby, enabling multi-year operation on coin cells.
Can the manual reset input (MR) of the MAX6361PUT46+ be left unconnected?
Yes, the MR pin of the MAX6361PUT46+ features an internal 20kΩ pull-up resistor to VCC, so it may be left floating or tied directly to VCC if manual reset functionality is not required. When used, a momentary switch to GND provides debounced reset initiation without external components. The MAX6361PUT46+ guarantees reset assertion for ≥150ms after MR returns high, ensuring robust µP initialization.
What package type and footprint does the MAX6361PUT46+ use?
The MAX6361PUT46+ uses a 6-pin SOT23 package (outline U6-1, land pattern 90-0175), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm. The "+T" suffix denotes RoHS-compliant lead-free construction. This compact footprint supports high-density PCB layouts in space-constrained applications like handheld instruments and smart meters, and is compatible with standard SOT23 reflow profiles.
Is the MAX6361PUT46+ suitable for operation down to 1.2V supply voltage?
Yes, the MAX6361PUT46+ is fully specified to operate from +1.2V to +5.5V on both VCC and VBATT inputs. Its internal comparators and reset logic remain functional and guaranteed at 1.2V, enabling reliable supervision during deep brownout conditions and battery depletion. This capability is explicitly verified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics sections of the MAX6361PUT46+ datasheet.
