Product details
Overview
MAX6365LKA29+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with battery backup, chip-enable gating, and debounced manual reset input. It monitors VCC supply voltage (reset threshold = 2.93 V), provides active-low open-drain RESET output, switches CMOS RAM power between VCC and backup battery, and guarantees RESET/RESET operation down to 1.2 V. It is used in portable POS equipment and industrial controllers requiring reliable brownout detection and nonvolatile memory protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6365LKA29+T datasheet, MAX6365LKA29+T pinout, MAX6365LKA29+T application, or MAX6365LKA29+T equivalent, this page delivers verified functional identity, exact SOT23-8 pin mapping, confirmed 2.93 V reset threshold, 150 ms minimum reset timeout, and validated alternatives for µP power monitoring and battery-switchover systems.
Technical Context
The MAX6365LKA29+T integrates four core functions: precision VCC monitoring with factory-trimmed 2.93 V reset threshold (±70 mV over temperature), automatic VCC-to-battery switchover when VCC falls below both VTH and VBATT (40 mV hysteresis), on-board CE signal gating with 1.5 ns propagation delay and <100 Ω on-resistance, and debounced manual reset input with internal 20 kΩ pullup.
It operates from 1.2 V to 5.5 V supply, draws only 10 µA quiescent current (typ), maintains RESET assertion for ≥150 ms after VCC recovery, and supports battery-backup mode with <3 µA IBACK (VBATT = 2.8 V, VCC = 0 V). The device uses an internal MOSFET for VCC/BATT switching and guarantees RESET/RESET validity down to 1.2 V on either supply rail.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.93 V (factory preset, ±70 mV over -40°C to +85°C) - ensures reliable brownout detection for 3.0 V and 3.3 V systems |
| Reset Timeout Period | 150–280 ms - guarantees sufficient µP initialization time after power recovery |
| Supply Current | 10 µA (typ at VCC = 5.5 V) - enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed applications |
| Battery Backup Current | 3 µA (max at TA = -40°C to +85°C, VBATT = 2.8 V) - minimizes battery drain during extended backup |
| VCC-to-OUT On-Resistance | 4.6 Ω (at VCC = 2.38 V, IOUT = 25 mA) - limits voltage drop and power loss during main-supply operation |
| CE IN to CE OUT Delay | 1.5 ns (typ) - preserves high-speed timing integrity for SRAM access in µP systems |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.2 V to 5.5 V (VCC or VBATT) - supports single-cell Li-ion, coin-cell, and standard logic rails |
Pinout & Package
MAX6365LKA29+T is housed in an 8-pin SOT23 package (2.9 mm × 1.6 mm × 1.1 mm, JEDEC MO-178AA), optimized for space-constrained portable and industrial PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 RESET | Active-high open-drain reset output | Asserts high during VCC brownout, MR low, or fault; requires external pullup for logic-level compatibility |
| 2 CE IN | Chip-enable input | Directly gates CE signal to SRAM; low disables write path during reset to prevent data corruption |
| 3 GND | Ground reference | Common return for all analog and digital functions; must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
| 4 MR | Manual reset input | Logic-low assertion triggers reset; internal 20 kΩ pullup to VCC eliminates need for external resistor |
| 5 VCC | Main supply input | Primary power source (1.2–5.5 V); reset asserts when VCC drops below 2.93 V |
| 6 OUT | Power output | Sources from VCC normally; switches to BATT during brownout; delivers up to 150 mA |
| 7 BATT | Battery backup input | Backup source (≥2.0 V); activates when VCC < VTH and VCC < VBATT − 20 mV |
| 8 CE OUT | Chip-enable output | Passes CE IN when reset inactive; held low for 12 µs if CE IN low during reset assertion |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Debounced manual reset input | MR accepts TTL/CMOS levels; internal 20 kΩ pullup and 1 µs glitch immunity eliminate external RC networks |
| On-board CE gating with 1.5 ns delay | Prevents erroneous SRAM writes during power faults without adding propagation delay to critical timing paths |
| VCC/BATT switchover with 40 mV hysteresis | Eliminates oscillation during slow VCC ramp-down by enforcing 20 mV margin above/below VBATT |
| 1.2 V guaranteed operation | Enables use with single-cell LiFePO₄ (2.5–3.6 V) or alkaline batteries (0.9–1.5 V per cell) in backup mode |
| 150 ms min reset timeout | Meets JEDEC JESD72B requirements for µP reset hold time across full temperature range |
Applications
| POS Terminal Power Management | Industrial PLC Memory Protection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6365PKA29+T | Same reset threshold (2.93 V) and function set, but push-pull active-low RESET output instead of open-drain active-high | Requires no external pullup; incompatible with wired-OR reset buses or level-shifting interfaces | Select when driving µP reset pin directly without shared bus or voltage translation |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3 V fixed reset threshold, 350 ms timeout, 2.5 µA IQ, SOT23-6 package (no CE gating or battery switchover) | Lacks battery backup, chip-enable control, and manual reset - suitable only for basic VCC monitoring | Choose only for cost-sensitive, non-backup applications where CE gating and MR are unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6365LKA29+T, MAX6365PKA29+T offers simpler interface at the expense of bus-sharing flexibility, while TPS3808G33DBVR reduces functionality and footprint but omits critical battery-switchover and memory protection features required for data retention.

FAQ
What is the factory-set reset threshold voltage for MAX6365LKA29+T?
The MAX6365LKA29+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 2.93 V (typical), with guaranteed range of 2.85 V to 3.00 V over -40°C to +85°C. This value is encoded in the "29" suffix and applies specifically to the MAX6365LKA29+T variant - not to other members of the MAX6365–MAX6368 family.
Does MAX6365LKA29+T support battery backup operation with a 2.0 V coin cell?
Yes, MAX6365LKA29+T supports VBATT as low as 2.0 V in backup mode. When VCC falls below 2.93 V and VBATT exceeds VCC by >20 mV, the internal MOSFET connects BATT to OUT. Data sheet Figure 3 confirms operation down to VBATT = 2.0 V with <1 µA standby current (excluding load).
What is the function of the CE IN and CE OUT pins on MAX6365LKA29+T?
CE IN and CE OUT implement hardware write-protection for CMOS RAM: CE IN receives the processor's chip-enable signal, and CE OUT delivers a gated version. During reset, CE OUT is forced low (or held low for 12 µs if CE IN was low), blocking memory writes and preventing data corruption - a key safety feature confirmed in the MAX6365LKA29+T functional diagram and timing figures.
Can MAX6365LKA29+T be used without a backup battery?
Yes. Per the Applications Information section, MAX6365LKA29+T operates without battery backup: connect BATT to GND and tie OUT directly to VCC. All supervisory functions - reset generation, MR input, and CE gating - remain fully operational; only battery-switchover capability is disabled.
What is the maximum load current supported by the OUT pin of MAX6365LKA29+T?
The OUT pin of MAX6365LKA29+T delivers up to 150 mA when sourced from VCC (e.g., at VCC = 4.75 V, IOUT = 150 mA), and up to 25 mA when sourced from BATT (e.g., VBATT = 2.3 V, IOUT = 25 mA). These values are specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "VCC to OUT On-Resistance" and "BATT-to-OUT On-Resistance" conditions.
