Product details
Overview
MAX6381XR25D2+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with factory-set 2.50V reset threshold, 20ms minimum reset timeout, and active-low open-drain reset output. It monitors VCC from +1.8V to +5.0V while consuming only 3μA at +1.8V, and guarantees valid reset state down to VCC = 1V. It is used in battery-powered embedded systems requiring reliable power-on reset and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6381XR25D2+T datasheet, MAX6381XR25D2+T pinout, MAX6381XR25D2+T application, or MAX6381XR25D2+T equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy (±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C), negative-going transient immunity, manual reset compatibility (not supported on this variant), and SC70-3 package footprint constraints.
Technical Context
The MAX6381XR25D2+T implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with ±2.5% threshold accuracy across –40°C to +125°C and 60ppm/°C tempco. Its internal timer enforces a guaranteed minimum 20ms reset assertion after VCC rises above 2.50V.
As a member of the MAX6381–MAX6390 family, it uses BiCMOS process technology and features open-drain RESET output requiring an external pullup resistor. It lacks MR input and RESET IN pins-confirmed by pin configuration tables and selector guide-making it a single-supply, fixed-threshold, no-manual-reset variant.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.50V (factory-set, ±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C) |
| Reset Timeout | 20ms min (guaranteed assertion duration after VCC recovery) |
| Supply Current | 3μA at +1.8V (enables multi-year operation in coin-cell applications) |
| Operating Voltage | +1.0V to +5.5V (valid reset output guaranteed down to VCC = 1V) |
| Output Type | Active-low open-drain (requires external pullup; supports wired-OR bus topology) |
| Package | 3-pin SC70 (1.25mm × 0.85mm, 0.5mm pitch; land pattern 90-0208) |
| Temperature Range | –40°C to +125°C (AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive use when /V suffix applied) |
Pinout & Package
MAX6381XR25D2+T is housed in a 3-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0075, land pattern 90-0208) with exposed pad not connected internally. Pin 1 = RESET (active-low open-drain), Pin 2 = VCC, Pin 3 = GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output | Drives low during reset; requires external pullup resistor; sinks ≥80µA at VCC ≥ 1.0V with VOL ≤ 0.3V |
| 2 - VCC | Power supply input and monitored voltage rail | Supplies device and serves as primary reset trigger source; accepts 1.0V–5.5V; absolute max –0.3V to +6.0V |
| 3 - GND | Ground reference | Return path for all internal circuitry and RESET sink current; must be low-impedance connection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 2.50V with ±2.5% tolerance over full temperature range ensures predictable brownout detection without external components |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 3μA at 1.8V enables >10-year battery life in always-on IoT sensors and wearables |
| Open-drain RESET output | Supports level-shifting and wired-OR configurations across mixed-voltage systems (e.g., 1.8V core + 3.3V I/O) |
| Negative-going VCC transient immunity | Rejects glitches up to 35µs wide at 100mV overdrive, reducing false resets in noisy power environments |
| Guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1V | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during deep brownout or controlled power-down sequences |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Continuous glucose monitor powered by CR2032 coin cell with 1.8V MCU core and 3.3V sensor interface. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises VCC rail to assert reset during battery voltage sag below 2.50V, preventing corrupted ADC readings or flash writes. Use Value: 3μA supply current extends battery life beyond 5 years; open-drain output interfaces cleanly with 3.3V logic via 10kΩ pullup. | Use Scenario: DIN-rail mounted I/O module with isolated 24V DC input converted to 3.3V/5V rails for microcontroller and fieldbus transceivers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 3.3V logic rail to hold MCU in reset until stable post-power-up; 20ms timeout exceeds typical LDO settling time. Use Value: ±2.5% threshold accuracy ensures consistent reset point across industrial temperature extremes (–40°C to +85°C ambient). |
| Automotive Body Control Units | Smart Energy Meters |
Use Scenario: BCM sub-module powered from vehicle battery (9V–16V) with local 5V/3.3V regulators feeding MCU and CAN transceiver. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Resets MCU if 3.3V rail drops below 2.50V due to load dump or cold-crank dip; operates over –40°C to +125°C junction range. Use Value: AEC-Q100 qualification (with /V suffix) and 60ppm/°C tempco ensure compliance with automotive reliability standards. | Use Scenario: Revenue-grade meter with dual-core SoC (ARM Cortex-M4 + secure crypto coprocessor) operating from 3.3V LDO supplied by supercapacitor backup. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Detects supercapacitor discharge below 2.50V to initiate graceful shutdown and nonvolatile register save before power loss. Use Value: Valid reset output down to VCC = 1V prevents metastability during final millisecond of power decay. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326XR25D2+T | Same 2.50V threshold, 20ms timeout, SC70-3 package; ±2.5% accuracy; but push-pull active-low output (no external pullup required) | Eliminates need for external pullup resistor; higher drive strength (3.2mA sink) but consumes slightly more current (7μA typ at 5.5V) | Select when board space is constrained and pullup resistor placement is impractical |
| TPS3808G125DBVR | 2.50V threshold, 20ms timeout, SOT-23-5 package; ±0.5% initial accuracy; 1.6μA typical ICC at 3.3V | Higher accuracy and lower current, but requires 5-pin layout and has different pinout (MR present but unused) | Select when highest threshold precision and lowest power are critical, and PCB redesign is feasible |
Compared with MAX6326XR25D2+T, MAX6381XR25D2+T trades off external component count for flexibility in bus topology; compared with TPS3808G125DBVR, it offers smaller footprint and automotive qualification path but with relaxed accuracy and higher current at low VCC.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6381XR25D2+T?
The MAX6381XR25D2+T has a factory-set reset threshold of 2.50V nominal, with guaranteed tolerance of ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C). This corresponds to a minimum threshold of 2.44V and maximum of 2.56V at +25°C, tightening to 2.44V–2.56V across temperature per datasheet specifications.
Does MAX6381XR25D2+T support manual reset functionality?
No, MAX6381XR25D2+T does not include a manual reset (MR) input. Per the selector guide and pin configuration diagrams, only MAX6384/MAX6385/MAX6386/MAX6390 variants feature MR. The MAX6381XR25D2+T is a dedicated single-supply reset monitor with RESET, VCC, and GND pins only.
What package type and dimensions does MAX6381XR25D2+T use?
MAX6381XR25D2+T uses a 3-pin SC70 package (outline number 21-0075) measuring 1.25mm × 0.85mm with 0.5mm lead pitch. Its land pattern is specified as 90-0208, and it is RoHS-compliant with lead-free terminations indicated by the "+" suffix.
Can MAX6381XR25D2+T monitor a second voltage rail?
No, MAX6381XR25D2+T does not support auxiliary voltage monitoring. The RESET IN pin is only available on MAX6387/MAX6388/MAX6389 variants. This part monitors VCC only and lacks both MR and RESET IN terminals, as confirmed by its 3-pin SC70 pinout and family selector table.
What is the minimum supply voltage at which MAX6381XR25D2+T guarantees valid reset output?
MAX6381XR25D2+T guarantees correct RESET output logic state down to VCC = 1.0V, as explicitly stated in the Electrical Characteristics table and Applications Information section. Below 1.0V, reset behavior is not characterized, and the device may not assert or deassert reliably.
