Product details
Overview
MAX6381XR44D1+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit in 3-pin SC70 package, featuring factory-set 4.38V reset threshold (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C), 1ms minimum reset timeout, and active-low open-drain reset output. It monitors VCC from +1.8V to +5.0V while drawing only 3μA at +1.8V, and guarantees valid reset state down to VCC = 1V - ideal for battery-powered portable equipment requiring reliable power-on reset.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6381XR44D1+T datasheet, MAX6381XR44D1+T pinout, MAX6381XR44D1+T application, or MAX6381XR44D1+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its precise 4.38V threshold tolerance, ultra-low quiescent current, open-drain output compatibility with mixed-voltage systems, and guaranteed operation across automotive temperature range (-40°C to +125°C).
Technical Context
The MAX6381XR44D1+T implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with ±2.5% threshold accuracy over full temperature range and 60ppm/°C tempco. Its internal timer generates a fixed 1ms minimum reset assertion period after VCC rises above 4.38V, independent of supply ramp rate.
This variant belongs to the MAX6381–MAX6390 family's open-drain active-low subgroup (MAX6381/MAX6383/MAX6386/MAX6389/MAX6390) and lacks manual reset (MR) and auxiliary RESET IN inputs - confirming it as a single-supply, minimal-feature reset monitor optimized for space-constrained applications.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
MAX6381XR44D1+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 = RESET (active-low open-drain), Pin 2 = VCC, Pin 3 = GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Open-drain active-low reset output; requires external pullup resistor; sinks ≥80µA at VCC ≥ 1.0V |
| 2 | VCC | Main supply input and monitored voltage source; accepts 1.0V–5.5V; powers internal comparator and timer |
| 3 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise-induced false resets |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-set 4.38V threshold | Eliminates external resistor divider, reducing BOM count and PCB area in 4.4V supply monitoring |
| 1ms reset timeout | Matches boot timing requirements of ARM Cortex-M0/M3 MCUs without firmware delay overhead |
| 3μA supply current at 1.8V | Extends battery life >10 years in always-on sensor nodes powered by CR2032 cells |
| Open-drain output | Enables shared reset bus across multiple voltage domains (e.g., 3.3V logic + 1.8V core) |
| Valid operation down to VCC = 1V | Prevents spurious release during slow power-down sequences in energy-harvesting systems |
Applications
| Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment | Critical μP and μC Power Monitoring |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Wearable health monitor with CR2032 coin cell powering an ultra-low-power MCU and analog front-end. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 3.0V LDO output; asserts open-drain RESET until VCC stabilizes post-brownout, then holds for 1ms before release. Use Value: Prevents corrupted flash writes during battery voltage sag, leveraging 3μA quiescent current to preserve >5-year shelf life. | Use Scenario: Industrial PLC controller using dual-rail power (5V I/O, 3.3V logic) where main 3.3V rail must initialize before peripherals. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 3.3V rail only; provides clean, timed reset pulse to MCU reset pin via open-drain bus shared with other supervisors. Use Value: Ensures deterministic boot sequence with ±2.5% threshold accuracy across -40°C to +125°C ambient, avoiding field failures. |
| Computers | Dual Voltage Systems |
Use Scenario: Embedded SBC in kiosk application with 12V input converted to 5V and 3.3V rails; 3.3V rail powers CPU core. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dedicated supervisor for 3.3V domain; triggers reset if rail drops below 4.38V due to load transient or regulator fault. Use Value: 1ms timeout aligns with x86-compatible reset timing specs; open-drain output interfaces directly to CPU's active-low reset pin. | Use Scenario: FPGA-based motor drive with separate 5V analog and 1.2V digital supplies; digital rail requires tighter reset margin. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Configured to monitor 1.2V rail via external resistor divider on RESET IN (not applicable to MAX6381XR44D1+T); this part instead monitors primary 5V rail at 4.38V threshold. Use Value: Provides fail-safe reset for high-side gate drivers when main 5V supply collapses, preventing shoot-through in half-bridge stages. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD1+T | Same 3-pin SC70 package, 4.40V reset threshold (±2.5%), but push-pull active-low output and no open-drain capability | Requires dedicated reset line; incompatible with wired-OR or level-shifted buses | Select when board layout lacks space for external pullup or system uses single-voltage-domain reset distribution |
| TPS3808G125DBVR | 4.38V threshold (±0.5%), 1.2ms timeout, 1.5μA typical ICC at 1.8V, SOT-23-5 package with manual reset input | Includes MR pin and tighter threshold tolerance; larger footprint and higher pin count | Select when manual reset functionality or enhanced accuracy justifies added complexity and cost |
Compared with MAX809TRD1+T, MAX6381XR44D1+T offers open-drain flexibility for multi-rail systems; compared with TPS3808G125DBVR, it trades manual reset and tighter tolerance for smaller size and lower cost in fixed-threshold applications.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6381XR44D1+T and how is it specified?
The MAX6381XR44D1+T has a nominal reset threshold of 4.38V, with guaranteed minimum of 4.27V and maximum of 4.48V at +25°C. Over the full operating temperature range (-40°C to +125°C), the threshold remains within ±2.5% of 4.38V, corresponding to 4.27V to 4.48V. This value is factory-trimmed and does not require external components - the "44" suffix in the part number directly encodes the 4.38V threshold per Maxim's ordering guide.
Does MAX6381XR44D1+T support manual reset functionality?
No, MAX6381XR44D1+T does not include a manual reset (MR) input. It belongs to the MAX6381/MAX6383 subgroup, which lacks MR and auxiliary RESET IN pins. Only MAX6384–MAX6386 and MAX6390 variants feature MR; MAX6387–MAX6389 include RESET IN. The MAX6381XR44D1+T is a minimal-feature, single-supply reset monitor with only RESET, VCC, and GND terminals.
What package type and dimensions does MAX6381XR44D1+T use?
MAX6381XR44D1+T uses a 3-pin SC70 package (outline number 21-0075, land pattern 90-0208), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm with 0.65mm pin pitch. It is RoHS-compliant ("+T" suffix), lead-free, and rated for -40°C to +125°C operation. The package has no exposed thermal pad, and pin 1 is RESET (open-drain), pin 2 is VCC, pin 3 is GND - confirmed by Maxim's official pin configuration diagrams.
Can MAX6381XR44D1+T operate reliably at VCC = 1.0V?
Yes, MAX6381XR44D1+T guarantees correct reset output logic state down to VCC = 1.0V. Its internal comparator and timer remain functional at this voltage, ensuring the open-drain RESET output stays asserted (high-impedance pulled high externally) until VCC exceeds 4.38V and the 1ms timeout expires. This behavior is explicitly characterized in the Electrical Characteristics table and Typical Operating Characteristics plots.
What is the supply current consumption of MAX6381XR44D1+T at different voltages?
MAX6381XR44D1+T draws 3μA typical at +1.8V, 4μA at +2.5V, 6μA at +3.6V, and 7μA at +5.5V (no load, TA = +25°C). These values increase slightly over temperature but remain below 13μA maximum across the full -40°C to +125°C range. The ultra-low current at 1.8V enables decade-long operation in battery-backed applications - a key design target for the MAX6381–MAX6390 family.
