Product details
Overview
MAX6381XR23D6-T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit in 3-pin SC70 package, featuring factory-set 2.3V reset threshold (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C), 560ms minimum VCC reset timeout, and active-low open-drain reset output. It monitors single supply voltage down to 1.0V and consumes only 3μA at +1.8V, enabling reliable power-up/brownout detection in space-constrained battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6381XR23D6-T datasheet, MAX6381XR23D6-T pinout, MAX6381XR23D6-T application, or MAX6381XR23D6-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its precise 2.3V threshold tolerance, guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, immunity to negative-going VCC transients ≤35µs at 100mV overdrive, and compatibility with standard μP reset input logic levels.
Technical Context
The MAX6381XR23D6-T implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with ±2.5% threshold accuracy across -40°C to +125°C and 60ppm/°C tempco, paired with a temperature-stable RC timer delivering 560ms minimum reset assertion after VCC recovery. Its open-drain RESET output requires an external pullup and remains valid for VCC ≥ 1V, ensuring deterministic behavior during deep brownout.
No manual reset (MR) or auxiliary RESET IN inputs are present-this variant is optimized for single-supply monitoring only. The device lacks internal pullups or secondary comparators, distinguishing it from MAX6384–MAX6390 and MAX6387–MAX6389 families, and operates within 1.0V to 5.5V supply range with 3μA quiescent current at 1.8V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.3V nominal, ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures accurate brownout detection across automotive and industrial temperature ranges |

Pinout & Package
MAX6381XR23D6-T uses a 3-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0075, land pattern 90-0208), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm, with exposed pad not connected internally. Pin 1 is RESET (active-low open-drain), Pin 2 is VCC, and Pin 3 is GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output | Drives low when VCC < 2.3V; requires external pullup resistor; sinks up to 3.2mA at VCC ≥ 4.5V |
| 2 - VCC | Power supply input and monitored voltage rail | Supplies internal circuitry and serves as primary reset trigger source; accepts 1.0V–5.5V |
| 3 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal functions and reset comparator reference |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 2.3V with ±2.5% accuracy over full temperature range - eliminates external resistor networks and calibration |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 3μA at 1.8V - extends battery life in portable medical and sensor nodes without compromising supervision integrity |
| Guaranteed reset validity | RESET state remains valid down to VCC = 1.0V - prevents spurious release during deep brownout |
| Negative transient immunity | Rejects VCC glitches ≤35µs at 100mV overdrive - avoids false resets in noisy DC/DC converter environments |
| Open-drain output architecture | Enables shared reset bus with multiple ICs and flexible voltage-level translation via external pullup |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD3-T | 2.32V threshold (±2.5%), 240ms timeout, SOT23-3 package, no AEC-Q100 qualification | Lacks automotive qualification and longer timeout; suitable for commercial-grade cost-sensitive designs | Select when AEC-Q100 compliance is unnecessary and shorter reset hold time suffices |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V threshold, 200ms timeout, 3-pin SOT23, 1.6μA ICC at 1.8V, no open-drain option | Fixed 3.3V threshold incompatible with 2.3V target; push-pull output limits bus sharing | Choose only if system requires 3.3V supervision and push-pull drive is acceptable |
Compared with MAX809TRD3-T and TPS3808G33DBVR, MAX6381XR23D6-T uniquely delivers 2.3V precision supervision with 560ms timeout and open-drain output in a 3-pin SC70 footprint, making it optimal for space-constrained, automotive-qualified, or multi-device reset-bus applications where threshold accuracy and extended hold time are critical.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6381XR23D6-T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6381XR23D6-T has a factory-set nominal reset threshold of 2.3V, with guaranteed accuracy of ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. Its temperature coefficient is 60ppm/°C, meaning threshold drift is limited to approximately ±0.015V across the entire range - sufficient for reliable brownout detection in automotive and industrial environments where supply rails exhibit thermal drift.
Does MAX6381XR23D6-T support manual reset functionality?
No, MAX6381XR23D6-T does not include a manual reset (MR) input. It belongs to the MAX6381/MAX6382/MAX6383 subgroup, which features only VCC monitoring and open-drain (MAX6381/MAX6383) or push-pull (MAX6382) reset outputs. Manual reset capability is exclusive to MAX6384–MAX6386 and MAX6390 variants, confirmed by the Selector Guide and Pin Configurations section of the datasheet.
What package type and dimensions does MAX6381XR23D6-T use?
MAX6381XR23D6-T is packaged in a 3-pin SC70 (SOT-323) outline, with package code X3+2, outline number 21-0075, and land pattern 90-0208. Its physical dimensions are 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm, and it features a non-connected exposed pad. This compact RoHS-compliant package enables high-density PCB layouts in portable and automotive electronics.
Can MAX6381XR23D6-T monitor a second voltage rail?
No, MAX6381XR23D6-T does not support auxiliary voltage monitoring. It is a single-supply supervisor with only VCC as the monitored input. Auxiliary RESET IN functionality is reserved for MAX6387/MAX6388/MAX6389 variants, as explicitly stated in the Pin Description table and Selector Guide - MAX6381XR23D6-T lacks both the RESET IN pin and internal comparator for secondary rail supervision.
What is the minimum supply voltage at which MAX6381XR23D6-T guarantees correct reset output behavior?
MAX6381XR23D6-T guarantees valid reset output logic states down to VCC = 1.0V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Detailed Description sections. Below this voltage, the internal comparator and timer may become indeterminate. This 1.0V lower limit ensures robust operation during deep brownout events common in battery-powered systems approaching end-of-life.
