Product details
Overview
MAX6385XS46D2-T from Maxim Integrated is a push-pull active-high microprocessor supervisory circuit with factory-set 4.63V reset threshold, 20ms minimum reset timeout, and manual reset input (MR). It monitors VCC from +1.8V to +5.0V while consuming only 3μA at +1.8V, and guarantees valid reset output down to VCC = 1V. It is used in portable battery-powered equipment for reliable power-on reset and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6385XS46D2-T datasheet, MAX6385XS46D2-T pinout, MAX6385XS46D2-T application, or MAX6385XS46D2-T equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy (±2.5% over −40°C to +125°C), MR debounce capability, SC70-4 package compatibility, and guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1V without external pullup.
Technical Context
The MAX6385XS46D2-T implements a precision voltage comparator with internal 4.63V reference and a monostable timer that enforces a minimum 20ms reset assertion after VCC rises above threshold or after MR release. Its MR input features an internal 63kΩ pullup resistor and accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels.
It uses BiCMOS process technology and supports operation across −40°C to +125°C. The device asserts RESET high when VCC falls below 4.63V or MR is pulled low, and holds RESET high for ≥20ms after recovery - ensuring μP initialization completes before code execution resumes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.63V (nominal), ±2.5% tolerance over −40°C to +125°C - ensures accurate detection of 5V rail brownout |
| Reset Timeout | 20ms (minimum) - meets typical μP power-up stabilization requirements |
| Supply Current | 3μA at +1.8V - enables use in ultra-low-power battery applications |
| Output Type | Push-pull active-high - drives RESET line directly without external pullup resistor |
| Manual Reset Input | MR with 63kΩ internal pullup - supports momentary switch interface without external components |
| Operating Voltage | +1.0V to +5.5V - guarantees functional reset output even during deep brownout |
| Temperature Range | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for industrial and automotive environments |
Pinout & Package
MAX6385XS46D2-T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098, land pattern 90-0187), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm. This compact footprint supports high-density PCB layouts in space-constrained portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Primary supply input and monitored voltage rail - must be connected to system 5V or 4.5V–5.5V domain |
| 2 | RESET | Active-high push-pull output - drives μP RESET pin high during fault; no external pullup required |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input - pulling low forces reset; internal 63kΩ pullup to VCC enables NC default |
| 4 | GND | Ground reference - must be connected to system ground plane with low-impedance path |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 4.63V with ±2.5% accuracy over full temperature range - eliminates need for external resistor divider calibration |
| Guaranteed reset validity | RESET output remains logically valid down to VCC = 1V - prevents spurious release during deep brownout |
| Integrated MR pullup | 63kΩ internal resistor - enables direct connection of momentary switch between MR and GND without discrete components |
| Negative-going transient immunity | Rejects VCC glitches ≤100µs at 100mV overdrive - improves reliability in electrically noisy systems |
| Low quiescent current | 3μA at +1.8V - extends battery life in always-on monitoring applications |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD2-T | 4.63V threshold, 240ms timeout, no MR input, SOT23-3 package | Lacks manual reset functionality; longer timeout may delay system recovery | Select when MR is unnecessary and board space permits SOT23-3; verify 240ms timeout aligns with host processor requirements |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V threshold (not 4.63V), 200ms timeout, MR input, SOT23-6 package | Incorrect threshold for 5V rail monitoring; requires external resistor network for 4.63V adaptation | Choose only if redesigning threshold via external feedback is acceptable; otherwise unsuitable for direct 5V supervision |
Compared with MAX809TRD2-T and TPS3808G33DBVR, the MAX6385XS46D2-T uniquely combines 4.63V precision threshold, 20ms fast timeout, MR input, and SC70-4 footprint - making it optimal for space-constrained 5V systems requiring rapid, user-initiated reset capability.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6385XS46D2-T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6385XS46D2-T has a nominal reset threshold of 4.63V, with ±2.5% accuracy guaranteed over the full operating temperature range of −40°C to +125°C. This stability is achieved through factory laser trimming and BiCMOS process design, eliminating the need for external calibration. The MAX6385XS46D2-T maintains this accuracy without drift, supporting robust 5V rail supervision in automotive and industrial settings.
Does MAX6385XS46D2-T require an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin?
No, the MAX6385XS46D2-T features a push-pull active-high RESET output, so no external pullup resistor is needed. The output actively drives high during reset assertion and low when deasserted. This simplifies layout, reduces BOM count, and ensures clean signal edges - unlike open-drain alternatives that mandate external pullups. The MAX6385XS46D2-T's architecture guarantees correct logic state down to VCC = 1V.
What is the function and electrical behavior of the MR pin on MAX6385XS46D2-T?
The MR pin on MAX6385XS46D2-T is an active-low manual reset input with an internal 63kΩ pullup resistor to VCC. Driving MR low forces immediate RESET assertion, which remains active for the full 20ms timeout after MR is released. MR accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels and supports direct connection to a momentary switch (MR to GND). No external components are required, and the MAX6385XS46D2-T ensures glitch immunity via 100ns MR input filtering.
Can MAX6385XS46D2-T operate reliably during deep brownout conditions?
Yes, the MAX6385XS46D2-T guarantees valid RESET output down to VCC = 1V - meaning it continues asserting or deasserting RESET with correct logic levels even as supply voltage collapses. This behavior prevents spurious release during slow power-down sequences. Unlike many supervisors that fail below 1.8V, the MAX6385XS46D2-T maintains deterministic operation, making it suitable for critical applications where brownout resilience is mandatory.
What package type and dimensions does MAX6385XS46D2-T use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
The MAX6385XS46D2-T uses a 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm with a 0.65mm pin pitch. It is lead(Pb)-free and RoHS-compliant, indicated by the "+T" suffix. This compact, surface-mount package supports high-density routing and automated assembly, and its thermal resistance (θJA = 322.6°C/W on multilayer board) enables reliable operation in thermally constrained designs.
