Product details
Overview
MAX6367LKA26+T 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 reset when VCC falls below 2.63V (typ), provides 150ms minimum reset timeout, and switches OUT to backup battery during brownout. Used in portable equipment requiring nonvolatile memory retention during main power loss.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6367LKA26+T datasheet, MAX6367LKA26+T pinout, MAX6367LKA26+T application, or MAX6367LKA26+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.63V factory-trimmed reset threshold, push-pull BATT ON output, 8-pin SOT23 package, 10µA quiescent current, and guaranteed reset assertion down to 1.2V VCC/VBATT.
Technical Context
The MAX6367LKA26+T integrates a precision voltage monitor, battery switchover MOSFET control, and dedicated BATT ON push-pull output that drives high only when VCC < VTH and VCC < VBATT. Its internal comparator uses a trimmed 2.63V threshold (±70mV over temperature) and features 150ms minimum reset timeout with glitch immunity against transients as short as 30µs at 100mV overdrive.
It implements chip-enable gating via a transmission gate between CE IN and CE OUT (1.5ns propagation delay, 20–100Ω on-resistance), and supports dual-supply operation: OUT sources from VCC normally, then seamlessly switches to VBATT during brownout with 40mV hysteresis to prevent chatter. BATT ON sinks 3.2mA at 0.4V saturation and sources ~10µA from OUT in backup mode.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.55V–2.70V (min/typ/max); factory-trimmed for +3.3V system monitoring with ±70mV tolerance over -40°C to +85°C. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 150–280ms; ensures µP completes full initialization before release, compatible with standard boot sequences. |
| Quiescent Supply Current | 10–50µA (typ/max); enables long-term battery backup with sub-1µA drain in standby when VCC = 0V. |
| BATT ON Output Type | Push-pull active-high; drives high during battery-backup mode, sinks 3.2mA at 0.4V, eliminates need for external pull-up. |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2V–5.5V; supports single-cell Li-ion, coin-cell, and multi-rail embedded systems without auxiliary regulators. |
| Chip-Enable Propagation Delay | 1.5ns (typ); preserves timing integrity for high-speed µP/DSP address/data bus gating without added latency. |
| Supply Transient Immunity | Withstands 30µs negative-going VCC glitches at 100mV overdrive; reduces false resets in noisy industrial environments. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6367LKA26+T is housed in an 8-pin SOT23 package (2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm), surface-mount, lead(Pb)-free, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 RESET | Active-high open-drain reset output | Asserts high during VCC brownout, manual reset, or watchdog timeout; requires external pull-down for logic-low interface. |
| 2 CE IN | Chip-enable input | Controls gating path to CE OUT; tied to GND or OUT if unused; internal 20kΩ pullup to VCC not present on this variant. |
| 3 GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for VCC, BATT, and all internal circuitry; must be low-impedance connection for stable reset timing. |
| 4 BATT ON | Battery-backup status indicator | Push-pull output that drives high only when VCC < VTH and VCC < VBATT; used for LED indication or external pass transistor base drive. |
| 5 VCC | Main supply input | Accepts 1.2V–5.5V; powers internal circuitry and supplies OUT during normal operation; reset asserted when below 2.63V. |
| 6 OUT | Regulated output | Sources from VCC (up to 150mA) or VBATT (up to 40mA) depending on switchover conditions; powers SRAM or real-time clock. |
| 7 BATT | Backup battery input | Accepts 0V–6V; activates switchover when VBATT > VCC + 20mV; draws <1µA standby current when VCC = 0V. |
| 8 CE OUT | Chip-enable output | Gated version of CE IN; disabled during reset to prevent erroneous writes to CMOS RAM; 12µs hold time after reset assertion. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Battery-on output indicator | Dedicated push-pull BATT ON pin confirms backup mode activation without software polling or external logic. |
| Precision 2.63V reset threshold | Factory-trimmed for +3.3V systems with ±70mV accuracy over full temperature range, eliminating external resistor networks. |
| Ultra-low 10µA quiescent current | Enables multi-year operation from coin-cell batteries in backup mode, with <1µA drain when VCC = 0V. |
| 1.5ns chip-enable propagation delay | Preserves µP bus timing integrity during power transitions, supporting high-speed DSP and flash memory interfaces. |
| 40mV switchover hysteresis | Prevents oscillation during slow VCC ramp-down by requiring 40mV difference between switch-in and switch-out thresholds. |
Applications
| Portable Medical Monitor | Industrial PLC Data Logger |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Battery-powered ECG monitor retains real-time waveform data during AC adapter disconnection or low-battery shutdown. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervisory IC monitors main 3.3V rail, triggers BATT ON to enable backup power path, and gates CE to freeze SRAM writes during transition. Use Value: Prevents data corruption during 150ms reset window while maintaining timestamp continuity via RTC powered from BATT. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar supervisory circuit applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6367PKA26+T | Same 2.63V threshold and BATT ON function, but open-drain RESET output instead of open-drain active-high; different pinout (RESET on Pin 1 vs. Pin 2). | Requires external pull-down for RESET signal; less suitable for direct µP reset inputs expecting active-high assertion. | Select MAX6367LKA26+T when active-high open-drain RESET is required and board layout accommodates Pin 1 placement. |
| MAX6367HKA26+T | Identical functionality and pinout, but rated for higher sink current on BATT ON (60mA vs. 3.2mA) and specified for extended temperature range (-40°C to +125°C). | Supports automotive under-hood or industrial high-temp environments where standard grade may fail. | Choose MAX6367HKA26+T for designs requiring AEC-Q100 qualification or operation above +85°C ambient. |
Compared with MAX6367PKA26+T and MAX6367HKA26+T, the MAX6367LKA26+T offers optimized cost and footprint for commercial-grade portable equipment, with guaranteed 10µA supply current and 2.63V threshold accuracy - making it ideal for battery-sensitive consumer and medical devices where extended temp rating is unnecessary.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for MAX6367LKA26+T?
The MAX6367LKA26+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 2.55V (min), 2.63V (typ), and 2.70V (max) over the full -40°C to +85°C operating range. This 2.63V nominal value is optimized for reliable monitoring of +3.3V power rails and is guaranteed by production testing, not typical characterization.
Does MAX6367LKA26+T support battery-backup operation with zero VCC?
Yes - MAX6367LKA26+T supports true zero-VCC battery-backup operation. When VCC = 0V and VBATT ≥ 2.25V, the device powers from battery, asserts RESET high, drives BATT ON high, and connects BATT to OUT. Quiescent current drops to ≤3µA in this state, enabling multi-year coin-cell life.
How does the BATT ON output behave during power transitions?
The BATT ON output of MAX6367LKA26+T is a push-pull driver that goes high only when both conditions are met: VCC < VTH (2.63V) and VCC < VBATT. It remains high throughout battery-backup mode and returns low within 12µs after VCC rises above VBATT + 20mV, providing unambiguous hardware-level backup status signaling.
Can MAX6367LKA26+T be used without a backup battery?
Yes - MAX6367LKA26+T operates fully without a backup battery. Connect BATT to GND and OUT to VCC. All supervision functions (reset generation, CE gating, BATT ON assertion) remain active, with BATT ON held low. The device consumes only 10–50µA, making it suitable for cost-sensitive non-backup applications.
What is the maximum load current supported on the OUT pin of MAX6367LKA26+T?
MAX6367LKA26+T delivers up to 150mA from VCC when VCC ≥ 4.75V and IOUT = 150mA (RON = 3.1Ω), and up to 40mA from VBATT when VBATT ≥ 2.25V and IOUT = 5mA (VOUT = VBATT – 0.15V). The OUT pin is short-circuit protected for up to 10 seconds, ensuring robustness in field deployments.
