Product details
Overview
The MAX6383XR16D3 from Maxim Integrated is a single-supply, open-drain active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit designed for low-voltage systems. It monitors VCC from +1.0V to +5.5V with a factory-set reset threshold of +1.58V (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C), consumes only 3µA at +1.8V, and provides a 140ms minimum reset timeout period. It is used in portable/battery-powered equipment to ensure reliable µP initialization during brownout or power-up.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6383XR16D3 datasheet, MAX6383XR16D3 pinout, MAX6383XR16D3 application, or MAX6383XR16D3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its open-drain active-low RESET output, guaranteed valid operation down to VCC = 1V, ±2.5% threshold accuracy over temperature, 140ms reset timeout, and SC70-3 package compatibility with space-constrained embedded designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6383XR16D3 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with internal hysteresis to detect VCC falling below its fixed +1.58V threshold. Its reset assertion is synchronized to an internal timer that guarantees a minimum 140ms deassertion delay after VCC rises above threshold.
As a member of the MAX6381–MAX6390 family, it uses BiCMOS process technology (647 transistors) and features negative-going VCC transient immunity up to 35µs for 100mV overdrive, with no manual reset input or auxiliary voltage monitor-distinguishing it from variants like MAX6384 or MAX6387.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | +1.58V (min), +1.61V (max); factory-trimmed for precise brownout detection at ultra-low supply voltages |
| Threshold Accuracy | ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C; ensures reliable reset assertion across automotive and industrial temperature ranges |
| Reset Timeout | 140ms (min); guarantees sufficient µP hold time for full register initialization and memory stabilization |
| Supply Current | 3µA at +1.8V; enables multi-year battery life in always-on IoT sensors and wearables |
| Operating Voltage | +1.0V to +5.5V; supports direct interface with 1.2V, 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5V logic domains |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low RESET; requires external pullup for level translation and wired-OR capability |
| VCC Validity | RESET state guaranteed down to VCC = 1.0V; prevents spurious release during deep brownout |
Pinout & Package
MAX6383XR16D3 is housed in a 3-pin SC70-3 package (package code X3-2), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm, with lead-free finish. Pin 1 is RESET (open-drain active-low), Pin 2 is VCC, and Pin 3 is GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Open-drain active-low reset output; must be pulled up externally to define logic-high level and support multiple devices on shared reset bus |
| 2 | VCC | Main supply input and monitored voltage rail; powers internal circuitry and serves as reference for reset threshold detection |
| 3 | GND | Analog and digital ground reference; must be connected to system ground plane with low-impedance path to minimize noise coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-set +1.58V threshold | Eliminates external resistor divider, reducing BOM count and layout area in compact 1.8V/2.5V systems |
| ±2.5% accuracy over temp | Ensures deterministic reset behavior without calibration across extended industrial (-40°C to +125°C) environments |
| 140ms min reset timeout | Meets JEDEC JESD8-12B timing requirements for 32-bit ARM Cortex-M boot sequences |
| 3µA supply current at 1.8V | Enables integration into energy-harvesting nodes where quiescent current dominates lifetime budget |
| Open-drain RESET output | Allows flexible voltage-level translation and safe reset bus sharing with mixed-voltage SoCs |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Wearable ECG patch operating from coin-cell battery with intermittent BLE transmission. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 1.8V LDO output to assert RESET during battery sag below 1.6V, holding µC in reset until stable supply resumes. Use Value: Prevents corrupted ADC sampling and firmware crashes during voltage droop, extending usable battery life by avoiding repeated failed wakeups. | Use Scenario: DIN-rail mounted analog input module powered from 24VDC converted to 3.3V/1.8V rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 1.8V core supply to guarantee clean processor startup after field wiring-induced transients. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete RC reset networks, improving long-term reliability in electrically noisy factory environments. |
| Automotive Body Control Units | Smart Home Hub Power Management |
Use Scenario: Low-power CAN gateway MCU powered via buck converter from vehicle battery (9V–16V). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Tracks 1.8V digital core rail; asserts open-drain RESET to all peripherals when input undervoltage causes regulator dropout. Use Value: Ensures deterministic fail-safe state during cold-crank events, meeting ISO 16750-2 pulse 4 immunity requirements. | Use Scenario: Voice-controlled hub using dual-rail PMIC (3.3V I/O, 1.1V core) with always-on microphone subsystem. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 1.1V core rail to prevent partial execution during brownout, coordinating with PMIC's power-good signals. Use Value: Avoids flash corruption and secure boot failures during AC line sags, maintaining OTA update integrity. |
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 (not +1.58V); 240ms reset timeout; SC70-3 package | Designed for 3.3V systems, not low-voltage 1.2V/1.8V domains | Select only if monitoring higher VCC rails; incompatible for 1.8V brownout detection |
| TPS3808G16DBVR | +1.6V threshold (±0.5%), 140ms timeout, open-drain output; 5-pin SOT-23 package | Requires external pullup; lacks transient immunity specs beyond 100ns glitch rejection | Valid alternative for space-tolerant designs needing tighter threshold tolerance, but verify VCC transient robustness per application |
Compared with MAX809TRD3+T and TPS3808G16DBVR, the MAX6383XR16D3 uniquely delivers factory-trimmed +1.58V detection with ±2.5% accuracy over full industrial temperature range in a 3-pin SC70, enabling minimal-footprint supervision of sub-2V logic supplies without external components.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6383XR16D3?
The MAX6383XR16D3 has a factory-set reset threshold of +1.58V (minimum), +1.61V (maximum), with nominal +1.58V at +25°C and ±2.5% accuracy maintained over the full -40°C to +125°C operating temperature range. This value is laser-trimmed during production and does not require external calibration.
Does the MAX6383XR16D3 include a manual reset input (MR)?
No, the MAX6383XR16D3 does not feature a manual reset input. It is a basic single-supply supervisor with only VCC monitoring and open-drain RESET output. Manual reset capability is present only in MAX6384/MAX6385/MAX6386/MAX6390 variants - the MAX6383XR16D3 pinout contains RESET, VCC, and GND only.
What package type and dimensions does the MAX6383XR16D3 use?
The MAX6383XR16D3 is supplied in a 3-pin SC70-3 package (package code X3-2), with footprint dimensions of 2.0mm × 2.1mm and height of 0.95mm. It is RoHS-compliant and lead-free, compatible with standard reflow soldering profiles per JEDEC J-STD-020.
Can the MAX6383XR16D3 operate reliably below 1.8V supply?
Yes, the MAX6383XR16D3 operates from +1.0V to +5.5V and guarantees valid RESET output state down to VCC = 1.0V. At +1.8V, its supply current is 3µA; at +1.0V, ICC remains functional though not specified in datasheet - the device maintains correct logic assertion/deassertion throughout this range.
Is the MAX6383XR16D3 pin-compatible with other members of the MAX6381–MAX6390 family?
The MAX6383XR16D3 shares the same 3-pin SC70-3 pinout (RESET/VCC/GND) with MAX6381 and MAX6382, but differs functionally: MAX6381 has push-pull active-low output, MAX6382 has push-pull active-high output, while MAX6383XR16D3 uses open-drain active-low. Direct replacement requires verifying output drive architecture and external pullup necessity.
