Product details
Overview
MAX6385XS34D6-T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-high push-pull reset output, factory-set 3.40V reset threshold (±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C), and 560ms minimum VCC reset timeout. It monitors single supply voltage in battery-powered or embedded systems and guarantees valid reset state down to VCC = 1V. Designed for critical μP power-up sequencing in portable instrumentation and industrial controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6385XS34D6-T datasheet, MAX6385XS34D6-T pinout, MAX6385XS34D6-T application, or MAX6385XS34D6-T equivalent, key selection considerations include its 4-pin SC70 package, manual reset input with internal pullup, ±2.5% threshold accuracy across temperature, and compatibility with dual-voltage monitoring systems requiring guaranteed reset assertion during brownout.
Technical Context
The MAX6385XS34D6-T implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with 60ppm/°C tempco to detect VCC falling below 3.40V, triggering an active-high reset that remains asserted for ≥560ms after VCC recovers. Its internal timer ensures deterministic reset duration independent of supply ramp rate.
It features a debounced manual reset input (MR) with 63kΩ internal pullup, supporting TTL/CMOS-compatible logic levels and momentary switch interfacing without external components. Reset output remains valid down to VCC = 1V, enabling robust operation during deep brownout conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.40V nominal, ±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable detection of 3.3V rail undervoltage with margin for noise and drift |
| VCC Reset Timeout | 560ms minimum - provides sufficient hold time for μP initialization and peripheral stabilization after power recovery |
| Supply Current | 3μA at +1.8V, 6μA at +3.6V - enables multi-year battery life in always-on portable equipment |
| Reset Output Type | Active-high push-pull - eliminates need for external pullup resistor and supports direct connection to μP RESET pin |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - allows operation during deep brownout and compatibility with 1.2V–5V logic families |
| MR Input Pullup | 63kΩ internal - permits direct switch-to-GND interface without external components; supports noise immunity with optional 0.1μF capacitor |
| Reset Assertion Delay | 35μs max for VCC falling at 10mV/µs - rejects short transients while responding promptly to sustained undervoltage |
Pinout & Package
MAX6385XS34D6-T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098, land pattern 90-0187), measuring 1.3mm × 1.7mm × 0.6mm, suitable for space-constrained PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Primary supply input and monitored voltage source; powers internal circuitry and feeds reset comparator |
| 2 | RESET | Active-high push-pull output; drives high during reset assertion, low otherwise; sinks/source capability up to 3.2mA/800µA |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC via 63kΩ resistor; asserts reset when pulled ≤0.3×VCC |
| 4 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuits and reset comparator; must be connected to system ground plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 3.40V with ±2.5% tolerance over full temperature range - eliminates external resistor network and calibration effort |
| Guaranteed reset validity | Operates correctly down to VCC = 1V - ensures deterministic reset behavior even during severe brownout before shutdown |
| Manual reset with internal pullup | 63kΩ MR pullup - enables simple momentary switch interface without discrete resistors or debounce circuitry |

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6385XS34D6-T?
The MAX6385XS34D6-T has a factory-set nominal reset threshold of 3.40V, with guaranteed tolerance of ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C). This value is laser-trimmed during production and does not require external calibration. The "34" suffix in the part number explicitly denotes the 3.40V threshold per Maxim's ordering guide.
Does MAX6385XS34D6-T support manual reset functionality?
Yes, MAX6385XS34D6-T includes a dedicated MR (manual reset) input pin with an internal 63kΩ pullup resistor to VCC. Driving MR low forces an active-high reset assertion for the full 560ms timeout period, then holds reset for the specified duration after MR is released. No external components are needed for basic switch interfacing.
What package type and dimensions does MAX6385XS34D6-T use?
MAX6385XS34D6-T uses a 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098), measuring 1.3mm × 1.7mm × 0.6mm with 0.65mm lead pitch. This RoHS-compliant, lead-free package is optimized for high-density PCB layouts and reflow soldering. Land pattern 90-0187 is recommended for reliable assembly.
How does MAX6385XS34D6-T behave during brownout conditions?
MAX6385XS34D6-T guarantees valid reset output down to VCC = 1V, ensuring the active-high RESET signal remains asserted and logically correct even during deep brownout. Its comparator architecture and internal biasing maintain functionality far below typical logic thresholds, preventing spurious release before safe power recovery.
Is MAX6385XS34D6-T compatible with other parts in the MAX6381–MAX6390 family?
Yes, MAX6385XS34D6-T is pin-compatible with other 4-pin SC70 variants in the MAX6381–MAX6390 family, including MAX6384 and MAX6386. It shares identical pinout, electrical characteristics, and thermal specifications, enabling drop-in replacement when only reset threshold or timeout differs - provided the target application requires active-high push-pull output.
