Product details
Overview
MAX6385XS36D5+T from Maxim Integrated is a push-pull active-high microprocessor supervisory circuit with factory-set 3.60V reset threshold, 280ms minimum VCC reset timeout, and manual reset input. It monitors +1.8V to +5.0V supply rails while consuming only 3μA at +1.8V, and guarantees valid reset output down to VCC = 1V. It is used in battery-powered controllers and portable instrumentation requiring reliable power-on reset and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6385XS36D5+T datasheet, MAX6385XS36D5+T pinout, MAX6385XS36D5+T application, or MAX6385XS36D5+T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, SC70-4 package layout, reset timing behavior under temperature variation, MR debounce capability, and direct alternatives for industrial embedded systems design.
Technical Context
The MAX6385XS36D5+T implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with ±2.5% threshold accuracy over −40°C to +125°C and 60ppm/°C tempco. Its internal timer generates a fixed 280ms (min) reset assertion period after VCC recovers above 3.60V or after release of the active-low manual reset (MR) signal.
It features an internal 63kΩ pullup on MR, supports TTL/CMOS-compatible logic levels, and provides glitch rejection (100ns) and negative-going VCC transient immunity up to 35µs at 100mV overdrive. The push-pull active-high RESET output drives high during fault conditions and deasserts cleanly after timeout.

|---|---|
Use Scenario: A handheld multimeter powered by two AA alkaline cells experiences gradual voltage decay during extended use, dropping below 3.3V nominal. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: MAX6385XS36D5+T monitors VCC and asserts active-high RESET to halt measurement processing and preserve memory integrity until voltage recovers or user replaces batteries. Use Value: Prevents corrupted ADC readings and flash write errors during brownout, ensuring measurement traceability and data reliability. |
Use Scenario: An environmental sensor node uses a low-power MCU and transmits data over LoRaWAN; its 3.3V LDO output sags during RF transmission bursts. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: MAX6385XS36D5+T detects sag below 3.60V and holds RESET high for 280ms, allowing the MCU to complete transmission and enter safe sleep mode before power collapse. Use Value: Eliminates packet loss and memory corruption caused by premature MCU wake-up or incomplete radio handshakes. |
| Industrial Controller Supervision | Medical Diagnostic Handheld |
Use Scenario: A PLC I/O module operates in a factory environment where 24V DC supply ripple causes brief dips on its internal 3.3V rail. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: MAX6385XS36D5+T provides immunity to sub-100µs transients and asserts RESET only on sustained undervoltage, avoiding nuisance resets during normal operation. Use Value: Maintains deterministic system uptime and avoids uncontrolled reboots that could interrupt real-time control loops. |
Use Scenario: A portable ultrasound probe draws high peak current during image capture, causing temporary 3.3V rail droop below 3.6V. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: MAX6385XS36D5+T triggers active-high RESET to freeze imaging pipeline and preserve last valid frame buffer before voltage collapse. Use Value: Ensures clinical-grade image continuity and prevents diagnostic artifacts caused by partial frame writes. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6385XS36D3+T | 140ms (min) VCC reset timeout vs. 280ms - shorter assertion period | Suitable for faster-booting MCUs with minimal initialization overhead | Select when system boot sequence completes in <150ms and longer timeout risks unnecessary delay |
| MAX6385XS36D6+T | 560ms (min) VCC reset timeout vs. 280ms - longer assertion period | Required for complex SoCs with multi-stage boot ROM, PLL lock, and DDR training | Select when firmware requires >300ms of guaranteed reset hold time before first instruction fetch |
Compared with MAX6385XS36D5+T, the D3 variant reduces reset duration for speed-critical applications, while the D6 variant extends it for robustness in complex boot sequences - both retain identical 3.60V threshold, MR functionality, and SC70-4 packaging.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6385XS36D5+T?
The MAX6385XS36D5+T has a factory-set reset threshold of 3.60V, 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 "36" suffix in MAX6385XS36D5+T explicitly denotes the 3.60V threshold per Maxim's ordering guide.
Does MAX6385XS36D5+T support manual reset functionality?
Yes, MAX6385XS36D5+T includes a dedicated active-low manual reset input (MR) with an internal 63kΩ pullup resistor to VCC. Driving MR low forces an immediate reset assertion, which remains active for the full 280ms timeout after MR is released. No external components are required for basic pushbutton implementation.
What package type and dimensions does MAX6385XS36D5+T use?
MAX6385XS36D5+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 standard reflow soldering and supports high-density routing in portable electronics PCBs.
How does MAX6385XS36D5+T behave during deep brownout conditions?
MAX6385XS36D5+T guarantees correct reset output logic state down to VCC = 1.0V. Below this level, internal circuitry may cease operation, but the push-pull output remains latched in its last valid state. For operation down to 0V, external pullup/pulldown resistors are required - though this is not needed for MAX6385XS36D5+T's intended use cases.
Is MAX6385XS36D5+T qualified for automotive applications?
No, MAX6385XS36D5+T is not automotive-qualified. It carries the "+T" RoHS suffix but lacks the "/V" automotive grade designation. For AEC-Q100 compliance, select variants such as MAX6385XS36D5/V+T - which share identical electrical specs but include extended reliability testing and automotive-grade screening.
