Product details
Overview
MAX6388XS24D5-T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power, dual-voltage microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-high push-pull reset output, 2.4V factory-set VCC reset threshold (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C), 280ms minimum VCC reset timeout, and auxiliary RESET IN input for monitoring a second voltage source. It operates from 1.0V to 5.5V supply and consumes only 3μA at 1.8V, enabling reliable power-up/brownout detection in space-constrained battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6388XS24D5-T datasheet, MAX6388XS24D5-T pinout, MAX6388XS24D5-T application, or MAX6388XS24D5-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4-pin SC70 package, guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, ±2.5% threshold accuracy across automotive temperature range, and dual-monitoring capability via internal 1.27V reference and external resistor-divider on RESET IN.
Technical Context
The MAX6388XS24D5-T integrates two independent voltage comparators: one monitors VCC against a precision 2.4V threshold, while the other compares the external RESET IN pin to a stable 1.27V internal reference. Reset assertion occurs if either monitored voltage falls below its respective threshold, and the active-high push-pull output remains asserted for ≥280ms after recovery.
Its manual reset input (MR) is absent - unlike MAX6384–MAX6386/MAX6390 - confirming it is a dedicated dual-supply monitor without user-initiated reset capability. The device guarantees correct logic state of RESET output down to VCC = 1V and exhibits immunity to negative-going VCC transients up to 35µs at 100mV overdrive.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Reset Threshold | 2.40V (nominal), ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures accurate brownout detection across automotive temperature range |
| RESET Timeout Period | 280ms (minimum) - provides sufficient hold time for μP initialization before release |
| Supply Current | 3μA at VCC = 1.8V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - supports valid reset assertion during deep brownout down to near-zero supply |
| RESET Output Type | Active-high push-pull - eliminates need for external pullup resistor and drives high-impedance loads directly |
| RESET IN Threshold | 1.27V (±2.5% over temperature) - enables precise secondary supply monitoring using external resistor divider |
| Reset Propagation Delay | 4.5µs (RESET IN to RESET) - ensures fast response to auxiliary rail faults |
Pinout & Package
MAX6388XS24D5-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, optimized for high-density PCB layouts in portable electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Main supply input and primary voltage monitor - powers internal circuitry and triggers reset when falling below 2.4V |
| 2 | RESET | Active-high push-pull output - asserts high during fault conditions and holds for ≥280ms post-recovery |
| 3 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - must be connected to system ground plane for stable comparator operation |
| 4 | RESET IN | Auxiliary voltage monitor input - compared to internal 1.27V reference; enables dual-rail supervision without additional ICs |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage monitoring | Simultaneously supervises VCC (2.4V threshold) and external rail via RESET IN (1.27V reference), reducing BOM count in multi-rail systems |
| Guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V | Ensures deterministic μP reset state even during severe brownout - no external pulldown required for push-pull output |
| ±2.5% reset threshold accuracy over -40°C to +125°C | Meets AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements for automotive under-hood applications without calibration |
| Negative-going VCC transient immunity | Withstands ≤35µs glitches at 100mV overdrive - suppresses false resets caused by switching noise or ESD coupling |
| Low 3μA supply current at 1.8V | Extends battery life in always-on monitoring nodes - e.g., >10 years on CR2032 at 1Hz wake-up rate |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6387XS24D5-T | Same 2.4V threshold, 280ms timeout, and 4-pin SC70 package, but features open-drain active-low RESET output requiring external pullup | Suitable where system-level reset bus is shared with multiple devices using wired-OR logic | Select MAX6387XS24D5-T only if active-low/open-drain signaling is required; otherwise MAX6388XS24D5-T simplifies layout with push-pull drive |
| TLV803EB24DBZR | 2.4V threshold, 280ms timeout, SOT-23-3 package, no RESET IN input, ±2% threshold accuracy, 0.5μA typical ICC at 1.8V | Limited to single-rail supervision; lower quiescent current but lacks dual-monitoring capability | Choose TLV803EB24DBZR for cost-sensitive single-supply designs where auxiliary rail monitoring is unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6387XS24D5-T, MAX6388XS24D5-T eliminates external pullup components and simplifies timing analysis with active-high assertion; versus TLV803EB24DBZR, it adds critical dual-rail supervision at modest current penalty - making it optimal for safety-critical multi-voltage systems.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage and accuracy of MAX6388XS24D5-T?
The MAX6388XS24D5-T has a factory-set VCC reset threshold of 2.40V nominal, with ±2.5% tolerance over the full operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. This specification is guaranteed by design and applies to both VCC monitoring and the internal 1.27V reference used for RESET IN comparison. The threshold is laser-trimmed during production to meet this accuracy without requiring external calibration.
Does MAX6388XS24D5-T support manual reset functionality?
No, MAX6388XS24D5-T does not include a manual reset (MR) input. Unlike MAX6384–MAX6386 or MAX6390 variants, this part is specifically configured for dual-voltage supervision only - monitoring VCC and RESET IN - with no provision for user-initiated reset. Its pinout omits MR, and the datasheet explicitly assigns Pin 3 to GND and Pin 4 to RESET IN in the 4-pin SC70 configuration.
What is the function and electrical specification of the RESET IN pin on MAX6388XS24D5-T?
The RESET IN pin on MAX6388XS24D5-T connects to an internal comparator referenced to a precise 1.27V bandgap voltage. When the voltage at RESET IN falls below 1.27V (±2.5% over temperature), the device asserts the active-high RESET output. Input leakage is ±1nA max, enabling use of high-value resistor dividers (e.g., 1MΩ/470kΩ) to set custom thresholds - for example, 3.3V rail supervision at 3.3V × (470kΩ / (1MΩ + 470kΩ)) ≈ 1.27V.
Can MAX6388XS24D5-T operate reliably at VCC = 1.0V?
Yes, MAX6388XS24D5-T guarantees correct RESET output logic state down to VCC = 1.0V, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. At this voltage, the active-high push-pull output maintains valid high/low states without external biasing - unlike open-drain variants that require pullups. This capability ensures deterministic reset behavior during deep brownout conditions common in battery-depleted portable systems.
What package type and dimensions does MAX6388XS24D5-T use?
MAX6388XS24D5-T is supplied in a lead-free, RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline number 21-0098, land pattern 90-0187), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm. This compact footprint occupies ~40% less board area than comparable SOT-23 solutions and supports reflow soldering at +260°C peak temperature, making it ideal for high-density portable and automotive PCBs.
