Product details
Overview
MAX6362PUT46 from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with integrated watchdog timer, battery switchover, and 4.63V factory-preset reset threshold. It operates from +1.2V supply, delivers active-low open-drain RESET output with 150ms timeout, and supports backup-battery switchover for SRAM retention in brownout conditions. Used in portable instrumentation and industrial controllers requiring reliable power monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6362PUT46 datasheet, MAX6362PUT46 pinout, MAX6362PUT46 application, or MAX6362PUT46 equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, SOT23-6 pin mapping, watchdog timing behavior, battery switchover hysteresis, and direct alternatives with documented threshold and output structure differences.
Technical Context
The MAX6362PUT46 implements a dedicated watchdog timer with 1.6s nominal timeout (1.0–2.25s over temperature), triggered by sustained high/low state on WDI pin. Its reset logic combines VCC voltage monitoring against 4.63V threshold, manual reset assertion via MR (not present on MAX6362), and automatic battery switchover when VCC falls below VBATT − 0.15V.
It features dual-supply operation: VCC powers normal mode (up to 5.5V), while BATT supplies OUT during brownout. The device guarantees RESET/RESET validity down to 1.2V on either supply rail and includes 100ns glitch immunity on WDI and MR inputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.63V (factory-preset, ±1.5% over -40°C to +85°C) - sets precise brownout detection point for +5V systems |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s typical (1.0–2.25s range) - defines maximum software execution window before forced reset |
| Reset Timeout Period | 150ms minimum - ensures µP completes full power-up initialization before release |
| Supply Voltage Range | +1.2V to +5.5V (VCC or VBATT) - enables operation directly from Li+ battery or low-voltage rails |
| Quiescent Current | 15µA typical at VCC = 5.5V - minimizes standby power in battery-backed systems |
| Battery Switchover Hysteresis | 40mV (VBATT − VCC ≥ 20mV to engage; VCC − VBATT ≥ 20mV to disengage) - prevents oscillation during slow supply transitions |
| Output Type | Active-low open-drain RESET - allows wired-OR configuration and level translation with external pull-up |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin SOT23 (U6-1, outline 21-0058), RoHS-compliant, -40°C to +85°C operating range.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output | Asserts low during VCC undervoltage, watchdog timeout, or power-down; requires external pull-up for logic-high state |
| 2: GND | Ground reference | Common return path for VCC, VBATT, and all internal circuitry; must be low-impedance connection |
| 3: WDI | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive input; rising or falling edge within 1.6s clears watchdog timer; static high/low >1.6s triggers reset pulse |
| 4: VCC | Main supply input | Primary power source; OUT sourced from VCC when above 4.63V; reset asserted when VCC < 4.63V |
| 5: OUT | Power output | Delivers regulated power to SRAM or real-time clock; switches to BATT when VCC drops below VBATT − 0.15V |
| 6: BATT | Backup battery input | Secondary supply; powers OUT during brownout; draws ≤0.05µA standby current when VCC active |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Watchdog timer with 1.6s timeout | Enables autonomous software hang detection without µP intervention; eliminates need for external timer IC |
| 40mV battery switchover hysteresis | Prevents chattering during slow VCC ramp-down/ramp-up, ensuring stable SRAM power handover |
| 150ms reset timeout period | Guarantees sufficient hold time for µP power-on reset sequence across voltage and temperature extremes |
| 1.2V minimum operating voltage | Supports direct interface with single-cell Li+ batteries (2.5–4.2V) and ultra-low-power microcontrollers |
| 100ns glitch immunity on WDI | Rejects EMI-induced noise on watchdog line without requiring external RC filtering |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6362HUT46 | Same 4.63V threshold and watchdog function, but offered in leaded (Pb) SOT23-6 package instead of lead-free (+T) | Compatible in legacy manufacturing lines requiring Pb-based soldering profiles | Select when RoHS exemption applies or Pb-free reflow is not available |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V reset threshold, no integrated watchdog, push-pull RESET output, 1.8–6V supply range | Suitable for fixed 3.3V systems without watchdog requirement; lacks battery switchover capability | Choose only if system does not require battery backup or watchdog functionality |
Compared with MAX6362PUT46, MAX6362HUT46 offers identical electrical behavior but differs in RoHS compliance status, while TPS3808G33DBVR provides lower-threshold supervision without battery management-making it unsuitable for SRAM retention or watchdog-dependent designs.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6362PUT46?
The MAX6362PUT46 has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 4.63V, with guaranteed tolerance of ±1.5% over the full -40°C to +85°C temperature range. This value is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Reset Threshold (VTH)" with MIN/TYP/MAX values of 4.50V/4.63V/4.75V. The threshold remains stable across supply voltage variations and load conditions, enabling precise brownout detection in +5V systems.
Does the MAX6362PUT46 include a manual reset input (MR)?
No, the MAX6362PUT46 does not include a manual reset input. The MR pin is exclusive to the MAX6361 variant. The MAX6362PUT46 features WDI (watchdog input) on Pin 3 instead, which serves as the primary reset initiation mechanism beyond VCC monitoring. This distinction is confirmed in the Pin Configurations section and Selector Guide, where MAX6362 devices are explicitly labeled as having WDI functionality-not MR.
How does the battery switchover function work in the MAX6362PUT46?
The MAX6362PUT46 automatically switches OUT from VCC to BATT when two conditions are met: VCC falls below the 4.63V reset threshold, and VCC drops at least 0.15V below VBATT. Switchover hysteresis is 40mV (20mV engagement + 20mV disengagement), preventing oscillation. During switchover, OUT remains powered, supporting SRAM retention. The device draws only 0.05µA from BATT in standby, as verified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "BATT Standby Current".
What is the watchdog timeout period for the MAX6362PUT46, and how is it cleared?
The MAX6362PUT46 watchdog timeout period is 1.6s typical (1.0–2.25s over temperature). It is cleared by any rising or falling edge on the WDI pin within that interval. If WDI remains static (high or low) longer than the timeout, a reset pulse is generated on the RESET output for 150ms. The timer also resets automatically whenever RESET is asserted-ensuring synchronization with power-cycle events.
Can the MAX6362PUT46 operate with a 1.8V supply voltage?
Yes, the MAX6362PUT46 operates from +1.2V to +5.5V on either VCC or VBATT, making 1.8V fully supported. Its RESET output remains valid down to 1.2V, and quiescent current is only 11µA at VCC = 2.8V (per Electrical Characteristics). However, the 4.63V reset threshold means it will assert reset continuously at 1.8V-so it must be used in systems where 1.8V is the backup rail (VBATT) while main supply (VCC) is ≥4.63V, or vice versa with appropriate voltage translation.
