Product details
Overview
MAX6385XS25D4-T from Maxim Integrated is a push-pull active-high microprocessor supervisory circuit in 4-pin SC70 package, with factory-set 2.50V reset threshold (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C), 1120ms minimum VCC reset timeout, and debounced manual reset input. It monitors single supply voltage in battery-powered embedded systems where reliable power-up sequencing and brownout protection are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6385XS25D4-T datasheet, MAX6385XS25D4-T pinout, MAX6385XS25D4-T application, or MAX6385XS25D4-T equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy at temperature extremes, guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, manual reset pulse handling without external debounce, and compatibility with low-voltage μP I/O domains.
Technical Context
The MAX6385XS25D4-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 guarantees a minimum 1120ms reset assertion after VCC rises above 2.50V, independent of supply ramp rate.
It features an active-high push-pull RESET output capable of sourcing 800µA at VCC ≥ 4.5V while maintaining VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC, and includes a dedicated MR input with 63kΩ internal pullup resistor-asserting reset on logic-low pulse ≥1µs and rejecting glitches <100ns.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.50V (nominal), ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures deterministic reset activation across automotive and industrial temperature ranges |
| VCC Reset Timeout | 1120ms (min) - holds μP in reset long enough for power rails and clocks to stabilize before code execution |
| Supply Current | 3µA at VCC = 1.8V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors |
| MR Input Pullup | 63kΩ - allows direct connection of momentary switch to GND without external components |
| RESET Output Type | Active-high push-pull - eliminates need for external pullup resistor and supports direct interface to CMOS μP reset inputs |
| Operating Voltage | 1.0V to 5.5V - guarantees valid reset state even during deep brownout conditions down to 1V |
| Reset Propagation Delay | 35µs (VCC falling at 10mV/µs) - provides fast response to rapid supply collapse without false triggering on transients |
Pinout & Package
MAX6385XS25D4-T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098, land pattern 90-0187), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm, optimized for space-constrained portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Main supply input and monitored voltage rail; powers internal circuitry and serves as reference for reset detection |
| 2 | RESET | Active-high push-pull output; drives high during reset assertion and low otherwise - directly compatible with standard μP reset pins |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC via 63kΩ resistor - enables hardware-initiated reset with no external components |
| 4 | GND | Analog and digital ground reference; must be connected to system ground plane for accurate threshold sensing and noise immunity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed 2.50V threshold | Eliminates external resistor divider and calibration effort - reduces BOM count and layout area in cost-sensitive applications |
| 1120ms VCC reset timeout | Ensures μP remains held in reset until all peripheral supplies and oscillators achieve stable operation post-power-up |
| Debounced MR input | Rejects mechanical switch bounce and EMI-induced pulses <100ns - removes need for RC filter or firmware debounce logic |
| Valid reset down to VCC = 1V | Guarantees correct logic state on RESET pin during deep brownout, preventing spurious release before full power recovery |
| Negative-going transient immunity | Withstands VCC glitches ≤35µs at 100mV overdrive - avoids false resets in noisy power environments without added bulk capacitance |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326XR25D4-T | Same 2.50V threshold and 1120ms timeout, but active-low push-pull output and no MR input | Requires level-shifting or inverted reset logic on host MCU; unsuitable where manual reset is mandatory | Select when legacy board uses active-low reset and manual reset is handled elsewhere |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 2.93V threshold (not 2.50V), 1200ms timeout, 1.8V–6.5V VCC range, no MR input | Higher threshold may cause premature reset release in 2.5V systems; lacks hardware reset button support | Choose only if system operates near 3.3V and manual reset is implemented externally |
Compared with MAX6385XS25D4-T, MAX6326XR25D4-T saves one pin but requires redesign of reset logic polarity, while TPS3808G33DBVR offers wider VCC range but mismatches the precise 2.50V trip point and omits MR functionality essential for field serviceability.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6385XS25D4-T and how does it vary with temperature?
The MAX6385XS25D4-T has a nominal reset threshold of 2.50V, specified with ±2.5% tolerance over the full -40°C to +125°C operating range. Its temperature coefficient is 60ppm/°C, meaning the threshold drifts less than ±12.5mV across the entire temperature span. This level of stability is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table and Typical Operating Characteristics plots (toc04) of the official datasheet.
Does the MAX6385XS25D4-T support manual reset, and what are the electrical requirements for the MR pin?
Yes, the MAX6385XS25D4-T includes a debounced manual reset (MR) input with a 63kΩ internal pullup resistor to VCC. To assert reset, drive MR below 0.3×VCC (for VTH < 4V) for ≥1µs; the device rejects glitches shorter than 100ns. The MR pin accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels and can be connected directly to a momentary switch to GND - no external components are needed.
What is the guaranteed minimum reset timeout period for the MAX6385XS25D4-T, and how is it triggered?
The MAX6385XS25D4-T guarantees a minimum reset timeout of 1120ms (D4 suffix) after VCC rises above the 2.50V threshold. This timeout is generated by an internal timer that starts upon VCC crossing the threshold and is independent of supply ramp rate. The same 1120ms period applies to VCC-initiated reset; manual reset releases after 140ms (per MAX6390 family timing, though MAX6385 uses D4 for VCC timeout only).
Can the MAX6385XS25D4-T operate reliably at very low supply voltages, and what is its minimum functional VCC?
Yes, the MAX6385XS25D4-T guarantees correct RESET output logic state down to VCC = 1.0V, as stated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Its supply current remains at just 3µA at 1.8V, and the reset comparator continues to function accurately - enabling robust operation during deep brownout conditions common in battery-depleted systems.
Is the MAX6385XS25D4-T pin-compatible with other members of the MAX6381–MAX6390 family, and which packages does it use?
Yes, the MAX6385XS25D4-T shares identical 4-pin SC70 pinout with other XS-suffix variants (e.g., MAX6384XSxxDx-T, MAX6386XSxxDx-T) and is not pin-compatible with 3-pin SC70 or 6-pin μDFN versions. Its pin configuration (VCC, RESET, MR, GND) matches the SC70 top view shown in Figure 9 of the datasheet, and it uses package code X4+1 (outline 21-0098).
