Product details
Overview
MAX6385XS28D3-T from Maxim Integrated is a push-pull active-high microprocessor supervisory circuit with factory-set 2.80V reset threshold, 140ms minimum VCC reset timeout, and manual reset input (MR). It monitors single supply voltage (1.0V–5.5V), consumes only 3μA at 1.8V, guarantees valid reset output down to VCC = 1V, and operates across –40°C to +125°C for use in battery-powered industrial controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6385XS28D3-T datasheet, MAX6385XS28D3-T pinout, MAX6385XS28D3-T application, or MAX6385XS28D3-T equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy (±2.5% over temperature), MR debounce capability, SC70-4 package footprint, and compatibility with low-voltage μP power-up sequencing in space-constrained embedded systems.
Technical Context
The MAX6385XS28D3-T implements a precision bandgap-based reset comparator with ±2.5% threshold tolerance over –40°C to +125°C and 60ppm/°C tempco. Its internal timer enforces a guaranteed minimum 140ms reset assertion after VCC rises above 2.80V.
It features an internally pulled-up manual reset input (MR) with 63kΩ pullup resistance, supporting TTL/CMOS logic drive and requiring no external debounce. The active-high push-pull RESET output drives high during fault conditions and remains asserted for the full timeout period after recovery.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.80V (factory-set, ±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C) |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - supports brownout detection down to ultra-low supply voltages |
| Reset Timeout | 140ms min - ensures reliable μP initialization after power recovery |
| Supply Current | 3μA at +1.8V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered devices |

| MR Input | Debounced manual reset with 63kΩ internal pullup - simplifies board-level reset button design |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial control environments |
Pinout & Package
MAX6385XS28D3-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 high-density PCB layouts.
| 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 assertion; sinks 80μA at VCC ≥ 1.0V |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input - internal 63kΩ pullup to VCC; requires <1µs pulse width for reliable assertion |
| 4 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - must be connected to low-impedance system ground plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 2.80V with ±2.5% accuracy over full temperature range - eliminates external resistor divider calibration |
| Guaranteed reset validity | RESET output state valid down to VCC = 1.0V - ensures deterministic behavior during deep brownout |
| Integrated MR pullup | 63kΩ internal pullup on MR pin - reduces BOM count and PCB area vs. discrete resistor solution |
| Negative transient immunity | Rejects VCC glitches ≤35µs at 100mV overdrive - prevents spurious resets in noisy power environments |
| Low-power operation | 3μA ICC at 1.8V - extends battery life in portable instrumentation and sensor nodes |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326XR28D3+T | Same 2.80V threshold and 140ms timeout, but active-low open-drain output requiring external pullup | Lacks MR input; not suitable where manual reset functionality is required | Select when board already includes pullup resistor and MR is unused |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 2.93V threshold (not 2.80V), 200ms timeout, 1.8V–6.0V VCC range, no MR input | Higher threshold tolerance (±0.5%) but no manual reset support; different SC70-5 pinout | Choose for tighter threshold accuracy where MR is unnecessary and timing margin allows 200ms |
Compared with MAX6326XR28D3+T and TPS3808G33DBVR, the MAX6385XS28D3-T uniquely combines 2.80V precision threshold, 140ms timeout, active-high push-pull output, and debounced MR in a 4-pin SC70 - enabling simpler, smaller, and more functionally complete reset solutions for space- and feature-constrained designs.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6385XS28D3-T?
The MAX6385XS28D3-T has a factory-set reset threshold of 2.80V, with guaranteed accuracy of ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C). This value is fixed by laser trimming during manufacturing and does not require external components. The "28" suffix in MAX6385XS28D3-T explicitly denotes the 2.80V threshold per Maxim's ordering nomenclature.
Does the MAX6385XS28D3-T support manual reset functionality?
Yes, the MAX6385XS28D3-T includes a debounced manual reset input (MR) pin with an internal 63kΩ pullup resistor to VCC. Driving MR low asserts the active-high RESET output for the full 140ms timeout period after release. No external debounce circuitry is needed, and the MR pin accepts standard TTL/CMOS logic levels - making it ideal for integration with momentary switches or system-level reset signals.
What package type and dimensions does the MAX6385XS28D3-T use?
The MAX6385XS28D3-T is supplied in a lead-free, RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline number 21-0098), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm. Its land pattern (90-0187) is optimized for reflow soldering on multilayer PCBs. This compact footprint provides pin compatibility with other members of the MAX6384–MAX6390 series in SC70-4 format.
How does the MAX6385XS28D3-T behave during low-VCC conditions?
The MAX6385XS28D3-T guarantees valid logic states on its RESET output down to VCC = 1.0V, ensuring deterministic reset assertion even during deep brownout. Below 1.0V, the device ceases operation, but the push-pull output remains in its last valid state until VCC drops further. This behavior prevents undefined processor states during power collapse - a critical requirement for fail-safe embedded systems.
Is the MAX6385XS28D3-T qualified for automotive applications?
No, the MAX6385XS28D3-T is not AEC-Q100 qualified. While it operates across –40°C to +125°C and meets industrial reliability standards, only specific variants denoted with "/V" in the part number (e.g., MAX6385XS28D3/V+T) carry AEC-Q100 qualification. For automotive under-hood or safety-critical applications, the /V version must be selected - the standard MAX6385XS28D3-T is intended for industrial and commercial use.
