Product details
Overview
MAX6385XS39D5-T from Maxim Integrated is a precision active-high push-pull μP supervisory circuit designed for reliable power-on reset and brownout detection in low-voltage embedded systems. It features a factory-set 3.90V reset threshold (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C), 280ms minimum VCC reset timeout, 3μA supply current at 1.8V, and guaranteed valid reset output down to VCC = 1V. It is used in battery-powered controllers and industrial microprocessor systems requiring stable, low-power supervision.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6385XS39D5-T datasheet, MAX6385XS39D5-T pinout, MAX6385XS39D5-T application, or MAX6385XS39D5-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4-pin SC70 package, active-high push-pull reset output, manual reset input with internal pullup, and compatibility with dual-voltage monitoring architectures where auxiliary reset inputs are not required.
Technical Context
The MAX6385XS39D5-T implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with ±2.5% threshold accuracy across temperature, paired with a monolithic timer generating a fixed 280ms reset assertion period after VCC recovery. Its active-high push-pull output drives directly into μP reset inputs without external pullups.
It integrates a debounced manual reset input (MR) with 63kΩ internal pullup, supporting TTL/CMOS-compatible triggering and noise immunity via optional 0.1μF capacitor to GND. The device operates from 1.0V to 5.5V supply and guarantees correct logic state down to VCC = 1V - critical for low-voltage brownout detection.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
MAX6385XS39D5-T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098, land pattern 90-0187), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in portable and automotive electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Primary power supply input and monitored voltage source - must be connected to the rail being supervised |
| 2 | RESET | Active-high push-pull reset output - asserts high during fault; deasserts low after timeout; drives μP reset pin directly |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input - pulled high internally; grounding initiates reset; supports switch or logic-level assertion |
| 4 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuitry and reset output - must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 3.90V with ±2.5% tolerance over full temperature range - eliminates external resistor networks and calibration |
| Guaranteed reset validity | Operates correctly down to VCC = 1V - ensures deterministic reset behavior during severe undervoltage events |
| Low quiescent current | 3μA at 1.8V - extends battery life in always-on monitoring applications such as smart meters and wearables |
| Integrated MR pullup | 63kΩ internal resistor - reduces BOM count and board area; enables single-switch manual reset implementation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar μP reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6385XS39D3-T | Same 3.90V threshold and active-high push-pull output, but 140ms reset timeout instead of 280ms | Suitable for faster-recovery systems where shorter reset hold time is acceptable | Select when μP initialization completes in <140ms and tighter timing budget is required |
| MAX6326XR39D5-T | Pin-compatible alternative with identical 3.90V threshold and 280ms timeout, but higher 10μA ICC at 1.8V | Legacy drop-in replacement with same footprint and function, but higher power consumption | Choose only if MAX6385XS39D5-T is unavailable and power budget allows +7μA increase |
Compared with MAX6385XS39D5-T, the MAX6385XS39D3-T offers faster reset release but reduced margin for slow-ramping supplies, while the MAX6326XR39D5-T maintains identical timing but sacrifices 2.3× higher quiescent current - making MAX6385XS39D5-T optimal for ultra-low-power designs demanding precise 280ms supervision.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6385XS39D5-T?
The MAX6385XS39D5-T has a factory-set nominal reset threshold of 3.90V, 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 threshold applies to the VCC pin and is specified relative to the internal bandgap reference, ensuring stability across voltage and temperature variations. The MAX6385XS39D5-T uses the "39" suffix to denote this specific 3.90V setting.
Does the MAX6385XS39D5-T support manual reset functionality?
Yes, the MAX6385XS39D5-T includes a dedicated active-low manual reset input (MR) on Pin 3. It features an internal 63kΩ pullup resistor to VCC, allowing direct connection of a momentary switch to ground for operator-initiated reset. The device asserts RESET high for the full 280ms timeout after MR is released. No external components are needed for basic operation, though a 0.1μF capacitor from MR to GND is recommended in noisy environments. This MR capability is confirmed in the MAX6385XS39D5-T's pin configuration and electrical specifications.
What package type and footprint does the MAX6385XS39D5-T use?
The MAX6385XS39D5-T is supplied in a 4-pin SC70 package (outline number 21-0098, land pattern 90-0187), with RoHS-compliant lead-free termination indicated by the "+T" suffix. This surface-mount package measures 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm and uses a gull-wing lead form. It is distinct from the 3-pin SC70 (used by MAX6381–MAX6383) and 6-pin μDFN variants in the same family. The MAX6385XS39D5-T's 4-pin SC70 footprint is documented in Maxim's official package drawings and land pattern guides.
Can the MAX6385XS39D5-T monitor a second voltage rail?
No, the MAX6385XS39D5-T does not support auxiliary voltage monitoring. It is a single-supply supervisor that monitors only the VCC pin. Devices with RESET IN capability - such as MAX6387, MAX6388, and MAX6389 - provide a dedicated auxiliary input for monitoring a second rail via external resistor divider. The MAX6385XS39D5-T belongs to the MAX6384–MAX6386 subgroup, which includes MR but excludes RESET IN. This functional limitation is explicitly defined in the family selector guide and pin description tables.
What is the minimum supply voltage at which the MAX6385XS39D5-T guarantees correct reset output behavior?
The MAX6385XS39D5-T guarantees valid reset output logic states down to VCC = 1.0V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Below this voltage, the internal comparator and timer may not operate reliably. This 1.0V lower limit ensures deterministic reset assertion during deep brownout conditions common in battery-depleted systems. The guarantee covers both active and inactive reset states and is validated across the full -40°C to +125°C temperature range. This specification applies uniquely to the MAX6385XS39D5-T and is not shared by all members of the MAX6381–MAX6390 family.
