Product details
Overview
MAX6381XR30D3-T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit in 3-pin SC70 package, featuring factory-set 3.00V reset threshold (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C), 140ms minimum VCC reset timeout, and active-low open-drain reset output. It monitors single supply voltage down to 1.0V, consumes only 3μA at 1.8V, and guarantees valid reset state during brownout conditions in portable battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6381XR30D3-T datasheet, MAX6381XR30D3-T pinout, MAX6381XR30D3-T application, or MAX6381XR30D3-T equivalent, this device serves as a precision, ultra-low-quiescent-current reset supervisor for space-constrained embedded controllers, critical μP power sequencing, and dual-voltage monitoring where guaranteed reset assertion below 1V VCC is required.
Technical Context
The MAX6381XR30D3-T implements a precision bandgap-based reset comparator with ±2.5% threshold accuracy across -40°C to +125°C and 60ppm/°C tempco. Its internal timer generates a fixed 140ms minimum reset timeout after VCC recovers above 3.00V, independent of temperature or supply variation.
This variant belongs to the MAX6381–MAX6390 family's open-drain active-low subgroup (no MR or RESET IN pins) and uses a 3-pin SC70 package with RESET, VCC, and GND terminals - eliminating N.C. pins and manual reset logic found in higher-pin-count variants.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.00V (min 2.93V, max 3.08V at -40°C to +125°C); sets precise brownout detection point for 3.3V I/O rails |
| VCC Supply Current | 3μA at +1.8V; enables multi-year battery life in always-on portable instrumentation |
| Reset Timeout | 140ms (min); ensures sufficient μP initialization time after power recovery |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V; supports valid reset assertion even during deep brownout down to 1V |
| Reset Output Type | Active-low open-drain; requires external pullup for level translation or wired-OR configuration |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +125°C; qualified for industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
| Package | 3-pin SC70 (X3+2 outline); 1.25mm × 0.85mm footprint ideal for compact PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
MAX6381XR30D3-T is housed in a 3-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0075, land pattern 90-0208), with no unused pins - all three terminals serve defined electrical functions.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (RESET) | Open-drain active-low reset output | Drives low to assert reset; requires external pullup resistor; sinks up to 3.2mA at VCC ≥ 4.5V |
| 2 (VCC) | Supply input and monitored voltage rail | Primary power source and reset trigger input; accepts 1.0V–5.5V; supports operation down to 1V |
| 3 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for VCC and RESET; must be low-impedance connection to maintain threshold accuracy |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 3.00V with ±2.5% tolerance over full temperature range - eliminates external resistor network calibration |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 3μA at 1.8V - reduces standby power in battery-backed real-time clocks and sensor nodes |
| Guaranteed reset validity | RESET output state remains valid down to VCC = 1.0V - prevents spurious release during slow power ramp-down |
| Negative-going transient immunity | Rejects VCC glitches ≤ 100µs duration when overdrive is < 100mV - improves noise robustness without added filtering |
| Small-footprint packaging | 3-pin SC70 (1.25mm × 0.85mm) - saves >60% board area vs. 6-pin µDFN or SOT-23 alternatives |
Applications
| Power Monitoring in Portable Instruments | Critical μP Sequencing in Industrial Controllers |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Battery-powered handheld multimeter with dual 3.3V/1.8V rails and sleep mode requiring reliable wake-up reset. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single-rail supervisor monitoring main 3.3V supply; asserts open-drain RESET to μP until stable post-brownout. Use Value: 140ms timeout ensures complete ADC and display controller initialization; 3μA ICC extends battery life by >2 years in sleep mode. |
Use Scenario: PLC I/O module operating in harsh factory environment with fluctuating 24V-derived 3.3V rail. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dedicated reset generator for ARM Cortex-M4 core; triggers hard reset on undervoltage events below 3.00V. Use Value: ±2.5% threshold accuracy over -40°C to +125°C prevents false resets during thermal cycling; SC70 package withstands vibration. |
| Dual-Voltage System Supervision | Low-Power Embedded Sensor Node |
Use Scenario: IoT edge node with separate 3.3V I/O and 1.8V RF SoC supplies, where only main rail is monitored. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary VCC monitor for 3.3V rail; open-drain output shared across multiple devices via pullup to 3.3V. Use Value: Open-drain architecture enables wired-OR reset bus; 3.00V threshold aligns precisely with 3.3V LDO dropout margin. |
Use Scenario: Wireless environmental sensor using coin-cell battery and ultra-low-power MCU with deep-sleep cycles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Always-on reset supervisor ensuring clean boot after cold-start or brownout from weak battery. Use Value: Valid reset assertion down to VCC = 1.0V prevents erratic behavior during final battery discharge phase; 3-pin SC70 minimizes BOM count. |
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 | 3.08V reset threshold (±2.5%), 140ms timeout, same 3-pin SC70 package, but push-pull active-low output | Requires no external pullup; incompatible with wired-OR reset buses | Select when board-level reset line drives only one IC and layout lacks space for pullup resistor |
| TPS3808G30DBVR | 3.0V threshold (±0.5%), 200ms timeout, SOT-23-5 package, includes manual reset input and watchdog timer | Higher accuracy and additional features increase cost and footprint; not drop-in compatible | Select when tighter threshold tolerance or system-level watchdog functionality is required beyond basic reset supervision |
Compared with MAX809TRD3-T, MAX6381XR30D3-T offers open-drain flexibility for multi-device reset busing but requires an external pullup; compared with TPS3808G30DBVR, it delivers identical threshold and timeout in half the package size and lower cost, at the expense of watchdog capability and sub-1% accuracy.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6381XR30D3-T and how does it vary with temperature?
The MAX6381XR30D3-T has a nominal reset threshold of 3.00V, with guaranteed minimum 2.93V and maximum 3.08V across -40°C to +125°C. This ±2.5% tolerance is maintained over temperature, supported by a 60ppm/°C tempco - meaning threshold drift is less than 18mV over the full range. The value is factory-trimmed and does not require external calibration.
Does MAX6381XR30D3-T support manual reset functionality?
No, MAX6381XR30D3-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 or push-pull reset outputs. Manual reset capability is present only in MAX6384–MAX6390 variants (e.g., MAX6384XR30D3-T), which use 4-pin SC70 or 6-pin µDFN packages.
What is the minimum supply voltage at which MAX6381XR30D3-T guarantees correct reset output behavior?
MAX6381XR30D3-T guarantees valid reset output logic state down to VCC = 1.0V. Below this, the internal comparator and timer may become unreliable. This feature ensures deterministic reset assertion during deep brownout conditions - critical for preventing code execution errors in battery-depleted systems before shutdown.
Can MAX6381XR30D3-T be used in automotive applications?
MAX6381XR30D3-T is rated for -40°C to +125°C operation and is AEC-Q100 qualified, but only specific /V-trim versions (e.g., MAX6381XR30D3/V+T) carry formal automotive qualification. The standard MAX6381XR30D3-T is suitable for industrial-grade automotive-adjacent applications (e.g., infotainment power sequencing), but for safety-critical modules, the /V suffix variant must be specified and sourced.
What package type and footprint does MAX6381XR30D3-T use, and are there land pattern recommendations?
MAX6381XR30D3-T uses the 3-pin SC70 package (outline number 21-0075, land pattern 90-0208). Its dimensions are 1.25mm × 0.85mm with 0.65mm pin pitch. Maxim recommends using the official land pattern to ensure solder joint reliability - deviations may cause tombstoning or insufficient thermal dissipation given its 340.4°C/W θJA rating on multilayer boards.
