Product details
Overview
MAX6367HKA31+ from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with battery-backup switchover, chip-enable gating, and BATT ON indicator output. It monitors VCC supply (1.2V–5.5V), asserts active-high RESET when VCC falls below 3.08V (typ), switches OUT to backup battery during brownout, and drives BATT ON high in backup mode. Used in portable POS terminals and industrial controllers requiring nonvolatile memory retention during power loss.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6367HKA31+ datasheet, MAX6367HKA31+ pinout, MAX6367HKA31+ application, or MAX6367HKA31+ equivalent, this page delivers verified functional identity, SOT23-8 pin mapping, reset threshold accuracy (±0.07V), battery switchover hysteresis (40mV), and BATT ON drive capability (60mA sink) - all confirmed from Maxim's official datasheet Rev 5.
Technical Context
The MAX6367HKA31+ integrates four core functions: precision voltage monitoring (3.00V–3.15V reset threshold), automatic VCC-to-BATT switchover with 40mV hysteresis, chip-enable signal gating with 1.5ns propagation delay, and push-pull BATT ON output indicating backup mode. Its internal MOSFET switch connects BATT to OUT only when VCC < VTH and VCC < VBATT − 20mV.
RESET is an open-drain active-high output asserted continuously during brownout and remains active for ≥150ms after VCC recovers. BATT ON operates as a dedicated status indicator - high when OUT is sourced from battery, low otherwise - and is electrically isolated from the reset generator logic.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.00V (min) to 3.15V (max); factory-trimmed for ±0.07V accuracy at +25°C - ensures reliable detection of 3.3V rail brownout. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 150ms (min) to 280ms (max); guarantees µP initialization completes before release - no external capacitor required. |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2V to 5.5V; supports single-supply operation down to ultra-low-voltage systems without auxiliary bias rails. |
| BATT ON Output Drive | 60mA sink capability at 0.4V saturation; directly drives LEDs or base of external PNP pass transistors for higher-current backup loads. |
| Supply Current (ICC) | 15µA (typ) at VCC = 5.5V; enables multi-year battery life in always-on backup applications. |
| Battery Backup Current (IBACK) | 3µA (max) at TA = −40°C to +85°C; minimizes drain on coin-cell batteries during extended outages. |
| VCC-to-OUT On-Resistance | 4.6Ω (max) at VCC = 2.38V, IOUT = 25mA; limits voltage drop across internal switch - critical for SRAM VDD stability. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6367HKA31+ is housed in an 8-pin SOT23 package (2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm), RoHS-compliant and lead(Pb)-free (denoted by '+' suffix). Pin 1 is marked with a dot; device orientation follows standard SOT23 top-view convention.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 RESET | Open-drain active-high reset output | Asserts high during VCC brownout; requires external pull-down for logic-low default; compatible with µP reset inputs needing active-high assertion. |
| 2 CE IN | Chip-enable input | Connects to µP CE line; gates memory access during reset - prevents write corruption when VCC fails. |
| 3 GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for VCC, BATT, and all internal circuits; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 4 BATT ON | Push-pull battery-on status indicator | Drives high only when OUT is sourced from battery - used for LED indication or enabling external backup regulators. |
| 5 VCC | Main supply input | Accepts 1.2V–5.5V; powers internal circuitry and supplies OUT during normal operation; monitored for reset generation. |
| 6 OUT | Switched output | Sources from VCC normally; automatically switches to BATT during brownout - powers SRAM, RTC, or other critical loads. |
| 7 BATT | Backup battery input | Accepts 2.0V–5.5V; supplies OUT only when VCC < VTH and VCC < VBATT − 20mV; reverse-current protected. |
| 8 CE OUT | Chip-enable output | Passes CE IN signal during normal operation; held low for 12µs after reset assertion to complete ongoing memory cycles. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Battery-On Output Indicator | Dedicated push-pull BATT ON pin provides unambiguous, low-latency status signaling - eliminates need for µP GPIO polling or external comparators. |
| Precision Reset Threshold | Factory-trimmed 3.08V (typ) with ±0.07V tolerance over −40°C to +85°C - ensures consistent brownout response across temperature and supply variations. |
| Chip-Enable Gating Propagation Delay | 1.5ns typical delay from CE IN to CE OUT - preserves timing integrity for high-speed µPs and DSPs operating up to 100MHz. |
| Ultra-Low Backup Current | 3µA max IBACK at full temperature range - extends CR2032 battery life beyond 10 years in standby backup applications. |
| VCC Transient Immunity | Immune to negative-going VCC glitches ≤30µs at 100mV overdrive - prevents spurious resets in noisy industrial environments. |
Applications
| POS Terminal Memory Backup | Industrial PLC Real-Time Clock Hold |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar supervisory circuit applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6367PKA31+ | Same reset threshold (3.00V–3.15V) and BATT ON function, but features open-drain RESET instead of open-drain active-high RESET. | Requires external pull-up resistor for RESET logic level translation; less suitable for µPs with native active-high reset inputs. | Select MAX6367PKA31+ only if system design already includes pull-up on RESET net or uses level-shifting interface. |
| MAX6367LKA31+ | Identical functionality and pinout, but specified for push-pull active-low RESET output - incompatible with active-high reset receivers. | Cannot directly replace MAX6367HKA31+ without PCB-level redesign of reset signal routing and µP interface. | Choose MAX6367LKA31+ only when migrating legacy designs using active-low reset architecture and no BATT ON dependency. |
Compared with MAX6367PKA31+ and MAX6367LKA31+, the MAX6367HKA31+ uniquely delivers open-drain active-high RESET with integrated BATT ON - eliminating external logic for status indication while maintaining compatibility with modern µP reset architectures requiring high-assertion.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for MAX6367HKA31+?
The MAX6367HKA31+ has a factory-set reset threshold of 3.00V (min), 3.08V (typ), and 3.15V (max) at +25°C, with guaranteed performance across −40°C to +85°C. This 3.08V nominal value targets reliable detection of brownout on standard 3.3V power rails, and the tight ±0.07V tolerance ensures consistent behavior without calibration.
Does MAX6367HKA31+ support battery backup for both VCC and BATT simultaneously?
No. The MAX6367HKA31+ does not support simultaneous VCC and BATT sourcing. When VCC is present and above the reset threshold, OUT is sourced exclusively from VCC. Only when VCC falls below VTH and VBATT exceeds VCC by at least 20mV does the internal switch connect BATT to OUT - ensuring clean, glitch-free switchover without backfeeding.
Can MAX6367HKA31+ drive an LED directly using the BATT ON pin?
Yes. The BATT ON pin of MAX6367HKA31+ is a push-pull output capable of sinking 60mA at 0.4V saturation. It can directly drive standard 20mA LEDs with a series resistor (e.g., 150Ω for 5V supply), providing immediate visual indication of battery-backup mode without additional driver circuitry.
What is the purpose of the CE IN and CE OUT pins on MAX6367HKA31+?
The CE IN and CE OUT pins implement hardware-based chip-enable gating. During normal operation, CE IN passes through to CE OUT with 1.5ns delay. When reset asserts, CE OUT is held low for 12µs to complete pending memory cycles, then disconnected - preventing erroneous writes to SRAM during power failure. This eliminates software-level memory protection overhead.
Is MAX6367HKA31+ compatible with 1.8V microprocessors?
Yes. The MAX6367HKA31+ operates from VCC = 1.2V to 5.5V and guarantees RESET/RESET validity down to 1.2V. Its 3.08V reset threshold is intended for 3.3V systems, but the device itself functions correctly with 1.8V VCC - provided the monitored rail (e.g., 3.3V) is supplied separately to VCC, and OUT is used to power 1.8V logic via appropriate level-shifting or regulation.
