Product details
Overview
MAX6385XS44D5 from Maxim Integrated is a low-power, active-high push-pull microprocessor supervisory circuit with factory-set 4.38V reset threshold, 280ms minimum reset timeout, and debounced manual reset input. It monitors VCC in systems requiring reliable power-on reset, brownout detection, and operator-initiated reset-such as portable instrumentation and battery-powered controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6385XS44D5 datasheet, MAX6385XS44D5 pinout, MAX6385XS44D5 application, or MAX6385XS44D5 equivalent, key selection criteria include its ±2.5% threshold accuracy over –40°C to +125°C, guaranteed valid reset output down to VCC = 1V, 3µA supply current at 1.8V, and SC70-4 package compatibility with space-constrained embedded designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6385XS44D5 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with internal 1.27V reference for threshold generation, paired with a temperature-stable RC timer for deterministic 280ms reset assertion after VCC recovery. Its active-high push-pull output drives directly into µP reset inputs without external pull-up components.
It integrates a debounced manual reset input (MR) with internal 63kΩ pullup resistor, enabling clean reset initiation via momentary switch or logic signal. The device guarantees correct reset state during VCC ramp-down to 1V and rejects negative-going transients ≤280µs at 100mV overdrive, per typical operating characteristics.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.38V nominal (±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C); ensures reliable detection of 4.5V rail brownout before system instability. |
| Reset Timeout | 280ms minimum; holds µP in reset long enough for power rails and clocks to stabilize post-brownout. |
| Supply Current | 3µA at +1.8V; enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors and portable devices. |
| Output Type | Active-high push-pull; eliminates need for external pull-up resistor and supports direct connection to standard µP reset pins. |
| Manual Reset | Debounced MR input with 63kΩ internal pullup; allows switch-based reset without external RC filtering or firmware debounce. |
| Operating Voltage | 1.0V to 5.5V; guarantees functional reset assertion even during deep brownout conditions down to 1V VCC. |
| Temp Range | –40°C to +125°C; qualified for automotive under-hood, industrial control, and extended-temperature embedded applications. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6385XS44D5 is housed in a lead-free 4-pin SC70 package (X4-1), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm, optimized for high-density PCB layouts in portable electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Primary power supply input and monitored voltage rail; powers internal circuitry and serves as reset threshold reference point. |
| 2 | RESET | Active-high push-pull reset output; asserts high during fault condition and deasserts low after timeout-directly compatible with most µP reset inputs. |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC; pulling low forces immediate reset assertion for test, debug, or user-initiated reboot. |
| 4 | GND | Analog and digital ground reference; must be connected to system ground plane for stable comparator operation and noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 4.38V with ±2.5% tolerance across full temperature range-eliminates need for external resistor dividers or calibration. |
| Guaranteed reset validity to 1V VCC | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during deep undervoltage events where many competing supervisors fail or float. |
| Integrated MR pullup resistor | 63kΩ internal pullup enables single-switch manual reset implementation-no external components required for basic functionality. |
| Negative transient immunity | Rejects VCC glitches ≤280µs wide at 100mV overdrive-reduces false resets in electrically noisy environments like motor drives or switching supplies. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 3µA at 1.8V enables >10-year battery life in always-on monitoring nodes powered by CR2032 cells. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326XR43D3 | Same 4.30V threshold and 140ms timeout; active-low open-drain output; no MR input. | Requires external pull-up resistor; unsuitable where active-high drive or manual reset is mandatory. | Select only if system design already uses open-drain reset architecture and does not require MR functionality. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V fixed threshold; 200ms timeout; active-high push-pull; 1.6µA ICC at 1.8V; no MR input. | Lacks manual reset capability; threshold not adjustable via part number suffix; lower supply current but narrower voltage range. | Prefer when 3.3V rail supervision suffices and MR is unnecessary; verify timing margin against 280ms requirement. |
Compared with MAX6385XS44D5, MAX6326XR43D3 requires board-level redesign for open-drain interface and omits MR, while TPS3808G33DBVR offers lower ICC but lacks configurable threshold and manual reset-making MAX6385XS44D5 optimal for 4.38V systems needing robust, self-contained reset control.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6385XS44D5?
The MAX6385XS44D5 has a factory-set nominal reset threshold of 4.38V, with guaranteed tolerance of ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C). This value is confirmed in the Reset Thresholds table of the datasheet, where suffix "44" corresponds to VTH(nom) = 4.38V, VTH(min) = 4.27V, and VTH(max) = 4.48V.
Does MAX6385XS44D5 support manual reset functionality?
Yes, MAX6385XS44D5 includes a debounced 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 period after MR is released. This feature is explicitly documented in the Pin Description and Detailed Description sections for MAX6385.
What package type and dimensions does MAX6385XS44D5 use?
MAX6385XS44D5 is packaged in a lead-free 4-pin SC70 (X4-1) package, with outline dimensions of 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm. This is confirmed in the Ordering Information table and Package Information section, where "XS" denotes the SC70-4 variant and "X4-1" is the official package code.
Can MAX6385XS44D5 operate reliably at VCC = 1.0V?
Yes, MAX6385XS44D5 guarantees valid reset output logic states down to VCC = 1.0V, as stated in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Reset Output State Guaranteed Valid Down to VCC = 1V." This ensures deterministic behavior during deep brownout conditions where many competing supervisors lose output control.
What is the supply current consumption of MAX6385XS44D5 at 1.8V?
At VCC = +1.8V and TA = +25°C, MAX6385XS44D5 consumes 3µA typical supply current (ICC), with a maximum of 6µA over temperature. This value is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "VCC Supply Current" and is critical for ultra-low-power battery-operated applications.
