Product details
Overview
MAX6385XS40D6-T from Maxim Integrated is a push-pull active-high microprocessor supervisory circuit with factory-set 4.0V reset threshold, 560ms minimum VCC reset timeout, and manual reset input (MR), designed for reliable power-up/power-down monitoring in low-voltage embedded systems operating from +1.8V to +5.0V supply. It consumes only 3μA at +1.8V and guarantees valid reset output down to VCC = 1V.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6385XS40D6-T datasheet, MAX6385XS40D6-T pinout, MAX6385XS40D6-T application, or MAX6385XS40D6-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4.0V ±2.5% threshold accuracy over –40°C to +125°C, debounced MR input with internal 63kΩ pullup, 4-pin SC70 package, and compatibility with dual-voltage monitoring systems requiring deterministic reset timing.
Technical Context
The MAX6385XS40D6-T implements a precision voltage comparator with ±2.5% threshold accuracy across –40°C to +125°C and integrates a monostable timer for fixed 560ms reset assertion after VCC recovery. Its active-high push-pull RESET output drives high during fault conditions and deasserts cleanly without external pullup.
It features a dedicated active-low manual reset input (MR) with internal 63kΩ pullup resistor, supporting TTL/CMOS-compatible triggering and noise immunity via optional 0.1μF capacitor to GND. The device operates over full 1.0V–5.5V VCC range and maintains guaranteed logic state integrity down to VCC = 1V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.00V nominal, ±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures accurate brownout detection for 3.3V/5V rails |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326XR40D6+T | Same 4.0V threshold and 560ms timeout, but active-low open-drain output requiring external pullup | Lacks MR input; intended for simpler single-reset systems without manual intervention | Select when board already uses open-drain reset bus architecture and MR is unnecessary |
| TLV809E40DBZR | 4.0V threshold, 200ms timeout, no MR input, SOT-23-3 package, 0.5μA supply current | Lower power but shorter timeout; not suitable for processors requiring >300ms initialization | Prefer for ultra-low-power IoT nodes where reset duration is less critical than current draw |
Compared with MAX6326XR40D6+T and TLV809E40DBZR, the MAX6385XS40D6-T uniquely combines active-high push-pull drive, integrated MR functionality, and industrial-grade temperature performance - making it optimal for systems needing robust manual intervention and deterministic timing without external components.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage and tolerance for MAX6385XS40D6-T?
The MAX6385XS40D6-T has a factory-set nominal reset threshold of 4.00V, with guaranteed accuracy of ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range of –40°C to +125°C. This means the actual threshold falls between 3.90V and 4.10V at +25°C, and between 3.90V and 4.10V across temperature extremes - ensuring consistent brownout detection for 3.3V and 5V systems.
Does MAX6385XS40D6-T support manual reset, and how is it implemented?
Yes, MAX6385XS40D6-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 560ms timeout after MR is released. No external components are required - a simple momentary switch from MR to GND suffices, and optional 0.1μF capacitor to GND adds noise immunity in electrically noisy environments.
What package type and dimensions does MAX6385XS40D6-T use?
MAX6385XS40D6-T is supplied in a lead-free, RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline number 21-0098). Its footprint measures 2.0mm × 2.1mm with a maximum height of 0.95mm, and it uses land pattern 90-0187. This compact package enables high-density PCB layouts in portable and space-constrained industrial modules.
Can MAX6385XS40D6-T operate reliably at very low supply voltages?
Yes, MAX6385XS40D6-T guarantees correct reset output logic state down to VCC = 1.0V, and operates across a full 1.0V to 5.5V supply range. Its 3μA supply current at +1.8V and validated functionality at 1V ensure deterministic behavior during deep brownout conditions - critical for fail-safe shutdown in battery-backed systems before complete power loss.
Is MAX6385XS40D6-T pin-compatible with legacy Maxim reset ICs like MAX809?
Yes, MAX6385XS40D6-T is explicitly pin-compatible with MAX809/MAX810/MAX803 and other members of the MAX6326–MAX6348 series, as confirmed in the datasheet Features section. This allows drop-in replacement in existing designs using 4-pin SC70 reset supervisors, preserving layout and bill-of-materials while upgrading to improved accuracy, lower current, and integrated MR functionality.
