Product details
Overview
MAX6365PKA26-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 = 2.63 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 equipment requiring reliable power-fail detection and data retention during brownout.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6365PKA26-T datasheet, MAX6365PKA26-T pinout, MAX6365PKA26-T application, or MAX6365PKA26-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.63 V factory-preset reset threshold, 150 ms minimum reset timeout, 10 µA quiescent current, 8-pin SOT23 package, and integrated CE signal gating for SRAM write protection.
Technical Context
The MAX6365PKA26-T implements a precision voltage monitor with ±1.5% threshold accuracy over temperature, coupled to an internal power-switching MOSFET that connects VCC or BATT to OUT based on VCC–VBATT differential (±20 mV switchover hysteresis). Its manual reset input (MR) features a 20 kΩ internal pullup and 120 ns MR-to-RESET delay at VCC = 3.3 V.
Chip-enable gating uses a transmission gate with 1.5 ns propagation delay (typ), 20–100 Ω on-resistance, and 12 µs reset-to-CE OUT hold time. The device operates across –40°C to +85°C with guaranteed functionality down to 1.2 V on either VCC or VBATT, supporting battery-backed SRAM retention in portable systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.63 V (factory preset, ±1.5% accuracy over –40°C to +85°C) |
| Reset Timeout Period | 150 ms min - ensures µP completes full reset sequence before release |
| Supply Current | 10 µA typ at VCC = 5.5 V - enables multi-year battery life in backup mode |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2 V to 5.5 V - supports single-cell Li-ion, coin-cell, and logic-supply rails |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low RESET - compatible with multiple µP reset inputs and wired-OR configurations |
| Battery Switchover | VCC–VBATT ≥ 20 mV hysteresis - prevents oscillation during slow VCC decay |

Pinout & Package
MAX6365PKA26-T is housed in an 8-pin SOT23 package (2.9 mm × 1.6 mm × 1.1 mm), surface-mount, lead(Pb)-free compatible (–T suffix), rated for –40°C to +85°C operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output | Asserts low continuously when VCC < 2.63 V or MR is low; holds low for ≥150 ms after recovery |
| 2 CE IN | Chip-enable input | Drives CE OUT pass gate; tied to GND or OUT if unused; 1 µA leakage max |
| 3 GND | Ground reference | Common return for all analog/digital functions; must be low-impedance connection |
| 4 MR | Manual reset input | Logic-low assertion triggers reset; internal 20 kΩ pullup to VCC; debounced internally |
| 5 VCC | Main supply input | 1.2 V–5.5 V operating range; powers internal circuitry and sources OUT up to 150 mA |
| 6 OUT | Power output for SRAM/µP peripherals | Switches between VCC and BATT; delivers regulated output with ≤4.6 Ω on-resistance at 2.38 V |
| 7 BATT | Backup battery input | Accepts 2.0 V–5.5 V; supplies OUT in brownout; draws ≤3 µA standby current when VCC = 0 V |
| 8 CE OUT | Chip-enable output | Gated version of CE IN; disabled during reset to prevent erroneous SRAM writes; 12 µs hold time |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6365LKA26-T | Same 2.63 V threshold and open-drain RESET, but push-pull output variant (MAX6365_L) | Requires no external pullup; unsuitable for wired-OR reset buses | Select when driving single µP reset pin without shared bus topology |
| TPS3808G125DBVR | 2.5 V reset threshold, 360 ms timeout, 2.5 µA IQ, SOT23-6 (no CE gating or battery switchover) | Lacks battery backup, chip-enable gating, and MR input-only basic reset supervision | Select only for cost-sensitive, non-backup applications where CE control and dual power path are unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6365PKA26-T, MAX6365LKA26-T offers identical monitoring and timing but different output drive architecture, while TPS3808G125DBVR sacrifices battery support and CE protection for lower quiescent current and smaller footprint-making it suitable only for simpler, non-redundant systems.

FAQ
What is the factory-set reset threshold voltage for MAX6365PKA26-T?
The MAX6365PKA26-T has a factory-preset reset threshold of 2.63 V (typical), with a guaranteed range of 2.55 V to 2.70 V across –40°C to +85°C. This value is laser-trimmed during production and does not require external components. The "26" suffix in the part number directly encodes this 2.63 V threshold per Maxim's ordering convention.
Does MAX6365PKA26-T support battery backup for SRAM, and how does switchover work?
Yes, MAX6365PKA26-T supports seamless battery backup for SRAM via its integrated VCC/BATT switchover circuit. When VCC falls below the 2.63 V reset threshold *and* drops at least 20 mV below VBATT, the internal MOSFET connects BATT to OUT. Switchover hysteresis prevents oscillation during slow VCC decay. In backup mode, MAX6365PKA26-T draws only 3 µA from the battery (VBATT = 2.8 V, VCC = 0 V).
What type of RESET output does MAX6365PKA26-T provide, and what are its drive capabilities?
MAX6365PKA26-T provides an open-drain active-low RESET output. It sinks up to 1.6 mA while asserting low (VOL ≤ 0.3 V), and exhibits ≤1 µA leakage when deasserted. This configuration allows wired-OR connection with other reset sources and compatibility with diverse µP reset input architectures, including those requiring external pullups.
How does the manual reset (MR) input function on MAX6365PKA26-T?
The MR input on MAX6365PKA26-T is debounced internally and features a 20 kΩ pullup to VCC. Driving MR low asserts RESET continuously; RESET remains asserted for ≥150 ms after MR returns high. No external RC network is needed. MR accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels and can be driven directly by a momentary switch to GND-ideal for field-service reset functionality.
Can MAX6365PKA26-T be used without a backup battery?
Yes. When no backup battery is used, connect BATT to GND and tie OUT directly to VCC. The MAX6365PKA26-T continues to provide reset supervision, CE gating, and MR functionality. All internal circuits remain operational, and the device draws only 10 µA from VCC. This configuration is common in cost-sensitive applications where data retention during power loss is not required.
