Product details
Overview
MAX6385XS37D4-T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power, active-high push-pull μP supervisory circuit with factory-set 3.70V reset threshold, 1120ms VCC reset timeout, and debounced manual reset input (MR). It monitors +1.8V to +5.0V supply rails, consumes only 3μA at +1.8V, guarantees valid reset output down to VCC = 1V, and operates across -40°C to +125°C - ideal for battery-powered microcontroller systems requiring reliable power-on reset and field-serviceable manual reset.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6385XS37D4-T datasheet, MAX6385XS37D4-T pinout, MAX6385XS37D4-T application, or MAX6385XS37D4-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its precise 3.70V ±2.5% threshold accuracy over temperature, MR input with internal 63kΩ pullup, SC70-4 package footprint, and compatibility with dual-voltage monitoring architectures where auxiliary reset inputs are not required.
Technical Context
The MAX6385XS37D4-T implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with ±2.5% threshold accuracy over -40°C to +125°C and 60ppm/°C tempco, paired with a monolithic RC timer generating a guaranteed minimum 1120ms reset assertion after VCC recovery. Its active-high push-pull RESET output drives high during fault conditions and deasserts cleanly without external pullup.
It integrates a debounced manual reset input (MR) with 1µs minimum pulse width support, 100ns glitch rejection, and 200ns MR-to-RESET delay - enabling robust reset initiation via momentary switch or logic signal without external RC filtering. The MR pin features an internal 63kΩ pullup resistor to VCC, eliminating need for discrete components in most implementations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.70V ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures deterministic reset activation across automotive and industrial temperature ranges |
| VCC Reset Timeout | 1120ms minimum - holds processor in reset long enough for power rail stabilization and clock lock in embedded systems |
| Supply Current | 3μA at +1.8V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors and portable instrumentation |
| Operating Voltage | +1.0V to +5.5V - supports valid reset assertion even during deep brownout down to 1V, critical for graceful shutdown |
| Output Type | Active-high push-pull - eliminates need for external pullup resistor and reduces BOM count vs. open-drain alternatives |
| Manual Reset Input | MR with 63kΩ internal pullup - allows direct connection of normally-open switch to GND; no external components required |
| Package | 4-pin SC70 (X4+1 outline) - 1.3mm × 1.6mm footprint compatible with space-constrained PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
MAX6385XS37D4-T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098, land pattern 90-0187), measuring 1.3mm × 1.6mm × 0.95mm with gull-wing leads. Thermal resistance θJA = 322.6°C/W on multilayer board.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Primary supply input and monitored voltage rail; powers internal circuitry and serves as reference for reset threshold detection |
| 2 | RESET | Active-high push-pull output; drives high during reset condition and low when system is stable - directly interfaces with μP RESET pin |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC via 63kΩ resistor - assert by grounding to force system reset |
| 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 reset threshold | 3.70V with ±2.5% tolerance over full temperature range - eliminates need for external resistor dividers or calibration |
| Guaranteed reset validity | RESET output state remains valid down to VCC = 1.0V - ensures deterministic behavior during deep undervoltage events |
| Integrated MR debounce | No external RC network required; 100ns glitch rejection and 1µs minimum pulse width support robust switch interfacing |
| Negative-going transient immunity | Immune to VCC glitches ≤35µs at 100mV overdrive - prevents spurious resets in electrically noisy environments |
| Low-quiescent-current design | 3μA at +1.8V supply - extends battery life in always-on monitoring applications such as smart meters and wearables |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar μP reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6385XS37D3-T | 140ms VCC reset timeout vs. 1120ms; otherwise identical threshold, package, and MR functionality | Suitable for fast-booting systems where shorter reset hold time is acceptable | Select when faster system initialization is prioritized over extended power-rail stabilization time |
| TLV803EB37DBZR | 3.7V threshold, 200ms timeout, SOT-23-3 package, no MR input, 0.5μA typical ICC | Lacks manual reset capability and uses smaller 3-pin footprint - trade-off between size and feature set | Choose for space-constrained designs where MR is unnecessary and ultra-low ICC is critical |
Compared with MAX6385XS37D3-T and TLV803EB37DBZR, the MAX6385XS37D4-T uniquely balances long-reset reliability (1120ms), integrated manual reset, and industry-standard SC70-4 footprint - making it optimal for industrial and automotive applications demanding both robustness and serviceability.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6385XS37D4-T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6385XS37D4-T has a factory-set nominal reset threshold of 3.70V, with guaranteed tolerance of ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. This corresponds to a minimum threshold of 3.61V and maximum of 3.79V at temperature extremes. The device achieves this stability using a precision bandgap reference and laser-trimmed resistive divider, with a tempco of 60ppm/°C - ensuring consistent reset behavior in automotive and industrial environments.
Does the MAX6385XS37D4-T require external components to operate, and what is the role of the MR pin?
No, the MAX6385XS37D4-T requires no external components for basic operation. Its MR (manual reset) pin features an internal 63kΩ pullup resistor to VCC, allowing direct connection of a normally-open momentary switch to GND to initiate a system reset. When MR is pulled low, the device asserts its active-high RESET output for the full 1120ms timeout period after MR is released - enabling field serviceability without adding capacitors or resistors to the schematic.
What package type and footprint does the MAX6385XS37D4-T use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
The MAX6385XS37D4-T uses a 4-pin SC70 package (outline number 21-0098, land pattern 90-0187), measuring 1.3mm × 1.6mm × 0.95mm with gull-wing leads. The "+T" suffix confirms it is lead(Pb)-free and RoHS-compliant. This compact footprint is pin-compatible with other SC70-4 supervisory circuits and supports reflow soldering at +260°C peak temperature.
How does the MAX6385XS37D4-T behave during severe supply voltage droop, and what is its minimum functional VCC?
The MAX6385XS37D4-T guarantees correct RESET output logic state down to VCC = 1.0V - meaning it continues asserting active-high reset even during deep brownout conditions where many competing supervisors fail. Below 1.0V, the device ceases operation, but the push-pull output remains in its last valid state until VCC drops further. This behavior ensures deterministic system halt before uncontrolled code execution occurs.
Can the MAX6385XS37D4-T monitor a second voltage rail, and does it support auxiliary reset inputs like RESET IN?
No, the MAX6385XS37D4-T does not support auxiliary voltage monitoring. It is a single-supply supervisor that monitors only the VCC pin. Devices with RESET IN capability (e.g., MAX6387/MAX6388) belong to the same family but are distinct part numbers. The MAX6385XS37D4-T pinout contains VCC, RESET, MR, and GND - no dedicated RESET IN terminal - making it suitable for applications where only primary rail supervision is required.
