Product details
Overview
MAX6379XR36+T from Maxim Integrated is an ultra-low-power, active-high push-pull voltage detector designed for precision supply monitoring in battery-powered systems. It features a factory-trimmed 3.60V threshold (±2.5% over temperature), 500nA supply current at +25°C, and guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1V. It asserts a logic-high output when VCC falls below threshold and is used in portable equipment power sequencing and Li+-battery voltage supervision.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6379XR36+T datasheet, MAX6379XR36+T pinout, MAX6379XR36+T application, or MAX6379XR36+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3.60V trip point, SC70-3 package, active-high push-pull output, transient immunity up to 200µs at 100mV overdrive, and compatibility with 1.2V–5.5V supply rails.
Technical Context
The MAX6379XR36+T implements a precision bandgap reference and comparator with internally trimmed resistors to set its 3.60V detection threshold. Its active-high push-pull output drives high (VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC) when VCC drops below VTH and low (VOL ≤ 0.4V) otherwise, eliminating external pull-up components.
It ignores fast negative-going VCC transients - maximum allowable glitch duration is 200µs at 100mV overdrive - and operates across -40°C to +85°C with ±2.5% threshold accuracy and 40ppm/°C tempco. Propagation delay is 9.5µs (typ) for rising/falling edges.

Pinout & Package
MAX6379XR36+T is housed in a lead-free 3-pin SC70-3 package (2.0mm × 1.25mm × 0.95mm), optimized for space-constrained portable designs. Pin 1 is OUT, Pin 2 is GND, and Pin 3 is VCC - consistent across all MAX6376/MAX6379 variants in SC70-3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (OUT) | Active-high push-pull output | Drives logic-high when VCC < VTH (3.60V); sinks ≥1.2mA, sources ≥500µA |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for internal bandgap and comparator; must be low-impedance |
| 3 (VCC) | Supply input | Monitored voltage rail (1.2V–5.5V); powers internal circuitry and defines output swing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 500nA enables >10-year shelf life in CR2032-powered IoT sensors |
| No external components required | Internally trimmed threshold and reference eliminate calibration resistors and trim pots |
| Transient-immune detection | Rejects glitches ≤200µs at 100mV overdrive - avoids false resets in noisy power rails |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage detector applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV803EB36DBZR | 3.6V threshold, 350nA supply current, SOT23-3 package, open-drain output | Requires external pull-up; not drop-in compatible due to active-low/open-drain logic | Select when lower quiescent current is critical and system design accommodates pull-up and inverted logic |
| TPS3808G36DBVR | 3.6V threshold, 1.1µA supply current, SOT23-6 package, adjustable delay, push-pull output | Larger footprint, higher IQ, includes programmable reset timeout - adds complexity where simple detection suffices | Choose when reset pulse stretching is required; avoid if minimizing size and power is primary goal |
Compared with TLV803EB36DBZR and TPS3808G36DBVR, MAX6379XR36+T delivers the lowest power (500nA) in the smallest footprint (SC70-3) with native active-high push-pull drive - making it optimal for space- and energy-constrained battery applications where minimal external components and deterministic logic polarity are essential.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6379XR36+T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6379XR36+T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 3.60V, with guaranteed accuracy of ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). Its temperature coefficient is 40ppm/°C, meaning threshold drift is limited to approximately ±10mV across the entire range - sufficient for precision battery end-of-life detection in portable devices.
Does MAX6379XR36+T require any external components to operate?
No, MAX6379XR36+T requires zero external components. Its precision bandgap reference, comparator, and threshold-setting resistors are fully integrated and factory-trimmed. The active-high push-pull output eliminates the need for an external pull-up resistor - unlike open-drain alternatives - simplifying layout and reducing BOM count.
Can MAX6379XR36+T operate reliably at very low supply voltages?
Yes, MAX6379XR36+T is guaranteed to assert its output correctly for VCC as low as 1.0V. This allows it to remain functional during deep brown-out conditions - for example, detecting final depletion of a LiSOCl₂ cell - and ensures deterministic reset behavior even as the monitored rail collapses.
How does MAX6379XR36+T handle power supply transients or noise on the VCC line?
MAX6379XR36+T incorporates built-in transient immunity: it ignores negative-going VCC glitches up to 200µs in duration when the overdrive (VTH – VCC) is 100mV. This prevents false resets caused by switching noise or load transients, a critical feature in DC/DC converter outputs and motor-driven systems.
What is the output drive capability of MAX6379XR36+T and how does it interface with common logic families?
MAX6379XR36+T features a push-pull output capable of sourcing ≥500µA and sinking ≥1.2mA at VCC ≥ 3.2V. Its VOH reaches ≥0.8×VCC and VOL stays ≤0.4V, ensuring direct compatibility with 1.8V, 3.3V, and 5V CMOS inputs without level-shifting - simplifying integration into mixed-voltage systems.
