Product details
Overview
MAX6385XS16D7-T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-high push-pull reset output, factory-set 1.58V reset threshold (±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C), 1200ms VCC reset timeout, and debounced manual reset input. It monitors single supply voltage in battery-powered embedded systems where reliable power-on reset and brownout protection are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6385XS16D7-T datasheet, MAX6385XS16D7-T pinout, MAX6385XS16D7-T application, or MAX6385XS16D7-T equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy at temperature extremes, guaranteed valid reset output down to VCC = 1V, manual reset pulse handling, and compatibility with 4-pin SC70 layout constraints.
Technical Context
The MAX6385XS16D7-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 generates a fixed 1200ms minimum reset timeout after VCC rises above 1.58V or after MR release.
It features an internal 63kΩ pullup on the MR pin, accepts TTL/CMOS-compatible logic levels, and guarantees correct RESET logic state for VCC ≥ 1V. The active-high push-pull output drives high during reset assertion and sinks up to 1.2mA at VCC ≥ 2.5V with VOL ≤ 0.3V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 1.58V (factory-set, ±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C) - ensures reliable detection of 1.8V rail brownout before system instability |
| VCC Reset Timeout | 1200ms min - provides sufficient hold time for slow-ramping microcontrollers and FPGA configuration |
| Supply Current | 3μA at +1.8V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors |
| Reset Output Type | Active-high push-pull - eliminates need for external pullup resistor and supports direct connection to μP RESET pin |
| Manual Reset Input | Debounced MR with 63kΩ internal pullup - allows momentary switch interface without external RC filtering |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - supports valid reset assertion even during deep brownout recovery |
| Package | 4-pin SC70 (X4+1 outline) - 1.3mm × 1.7mm footprint ideal for space-constrained portable designs |
Pinout & Package
MAX6385XS16D7-T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098, land pattern 90-0187), measuring 1.3mm × 1.7mm × 0.95mm with gull-wing leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Primary supply input and monitored voltage rail - must be decoupled with 0.1μF capacitor near pin |
| 2 | RESET | Active-high push-pull reset output - drives high during reset; sinks 1.2mA max at VCC ≥ 2.5V |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input - internally pulled up to VCC; requires <100ns glitch rejection for noise immunity |
| 4 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - must connect directly to low-impedance system ground plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 1.58V with ±2.5% tolerance over full automotive temperature range - eliminates calibration overhead in production test |
| Guaranteed reset validity | Operates correctly down to VCC = 1V - ensures deterministic reset behavior during ultra-low-voltage brownout recovery |
| Integrated MR pullup | 63kΩ internal resistor - enables direct switch-to-ground interface without external components |
| Negative-going transient immunity | Rejects VCC glitches <150µs wide at 100mV overdrive - prevents spurious resets in electrically noisy environments |
| Low quiescent current | 3μA at 1.8V - extends battery life in always-on monitoring applications beyond 10 years |
Applications
| Power Monitoring in Portable Devices | Critical μP Reset in Industrial Controllers |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone supervisor for primary 3.3V rail; RESET IN pin not used (MAX6385 variant). Use Value: Pin-compatible upgrade path from legacy MAX809; 4-pin SC70 saves PCB area versus 3-pin alternatives. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD2T | 3-pin SC70, 2.93V reset threshold, 240ms timeout, no MR input | Lacks manual reset; unsuitable for field-serviceable devices requiring hardware reset | Select when only basic power-on reset is needed and board space is extremely constrained |
| TPS3808G15DBVR | 6-pin SOT-23, 1.5V threshold, adjustable timeout via capacitor, 1.6μA typical ICC | Requires external timing capacitor; higher pin count increases routing complexity | Select when timeout flexibility or lower quiescent current outweighs 4-pin SC70 footprint advantage |
Compared with MAX809TRD2T and TPS3808G15DBVR, the MAX6385XS16D7-T uniquely combines 4-pin SC70 compactness, factory-set 1.58V threshold, 1200ms timeout, and integrated MR-making it optimal for space-limited, battery-operated systems requiring field-reset capability without design compromises.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6385XS16D7-T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6385XS16D7-T has a factory-set reset threshold of 1.58V, specified with ±2.5% tolerance over the full operating range of –40°C to +125°C. Its temperature coefficient is 60ppm/°C, meaning threshold drift is limited to ±0.015V across the entire temperature span. This stability ensures consistent brownout detection in automotive and industrial environments where ambient temperature swings are severe.
Does MAX6385XS16D7-T support manual reset, and what are the electrical requirements for the MR pin?
Yes, MAX6385XS16D7-T includes a debounced manual reset input (MR) with an internal 63kΩ pullup resistor to VCC. To assert reset, drive MR below 0.3×VCC (for VTH < 4V) with a minimum pulse width of 1μs. The input rejects glitches shorter than 100ns and tolerates voltages from –0.3V to (VCC + 0.3V). Leaving MR unconnected defaults it to high via the internal pullup.
What is the function of the RESET output on MAX6385XS16D7-T, and what load can it drive?
The RESET output of MAX6385XS16D7-T is an active-high push-pull driver. During reset assertion, it drives high; otherwise, it pulls low. It can sink up to 1.2mA at VCC ≥ 2.5V with VOL ≤ 0.3V, and source up to 500μA with VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC. This eliminates the need for external pullup resistors and allows direct interfacing with standard CMOS μP reset inputs.
Can MAX6385XS16D7-T operate reliably at very low supply voltages, and what is its minimum functional VCC?
Yes, MAX6385XS16D7-T guarantees correct RESET output logic state down to VCC = 1.0V, as confirmed in its Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Below 1.0V, reset behavior is not specified. This capability ensures deterministic reset assertion during deep brownout conditions common in battery-depleted portable systems.
What package type and dimensions does MAX6385XS16D7-T use, and are there layout considerations?
MAX6385XS16D7-T uses a 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098, land pattern 90-0187), measuring 1.3mm × 1.7mm × 0.95mm. Key layout recommendations include placing a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor between VCC and GND as close as possible to the device, using short traces for MR and RESET, and connecting GND to a solid ground plane to minimize noise coupling into the sensitive reset comparator.
