Product details
Overview
MAX6388XS30D1-T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with active-high push-pull reset output, factory-set 3.00V ±2.5% VCC reset threshold, and 1ms minimum reset timeout period. It monitors supply voltage in battery-powered or dual-rail systems and guarantees valid reset state down to VCC = 1V. Designed for critical μP power-up sequencing in portable instrumentation and industrial controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6388XS30D1-T datasheet, MAX6388XS30D1-T pinout, MAX6388XS30D1-T application, or MAX6388XS30D1-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4-pin SC70 package, auxiliary RESET IN capability, ±2.5% threshold accuracy over –40°C to +125°C, and immunity to negative-going VCC transients up to 35µs at 100mV overdrive.
Technical Context
The MAX6388XS30D1-T integrates a precision voltage comparator referenced to an internal bandgap, a 1ms timeout monostable timer, and a push-pull output driver. Its RESET IN pin connects to an auxiliary comparator with fixed 1.27V threshold, enabling dual-voltage monitoring via external resistor divider.
It features guaranteed reset assertion during VCC ramp-down below 3.00V and holds reset active for ≥1ms after VCC exceeds threshold. The device operates from 1.0V to 5.5V supply and draws only 3μA at 1.8V, supporting ultra-low-power embedded systems requiring reliable brownout detection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.00V ±2.5% (–40°C to +125°C); ensures accurate brownout detection across automotive/industrial temperature range |
| Reset Timeout | 1ms minimum; provides sufficient hold time for μP initialization without delaying system boot |
| Supply Current | 3μA at +1.8V; enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered devices |
| Operating Voltage | 1.0V to 5.5V; supports valid reset assertion even during deep brownout conditions |
| Output Type | Active-high push-pull; eliminates need for external pullup resistor and reduces BOM count |
| Auxiliary Input | RESET IN with 1.27V threshold; allows independent monitoring of second supply rail (e.g., I/O vs. core) |
| Transient Immunity | Rejects negative VCC glitches ≤35µs at 100mV overdrive; prevents spurious resets in noisy environments |
Pinout & Package
MAX6388XS30D1-T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098), footprint-compatible with industry-standard 0.65mm pitch layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Main supply input and primary voltage monitor; powers internal circuitry and sets reset threshold reference |
| 2 | RESET | Active-high push-pull output; drives high during reset assertion and low otherwise; no external pullup required |
| 3 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference; must be connected directly to system ground plane for stable threshold accuracy |
| 4 | RESET IN | Auxiliary voltage monitor input; compares external divided voltage against 1.27V internal reference for dual-supply supervision |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-supply monitoring | Simultaneous VCC and RESET IN supervision enables independent reset triggering on either rail failure |
| Factory-trimmed threshold | 3.00V ±2.5% over full temperature range eliminates need for external calibration components |
| Low-power operation | 3μA supply current at 1.8V allows integration into always-on subsystems without compromising battery life |
| Glitch-immune design | Internal filtering rejects sub-35µs VCC transients, reducing false resets in electrically noisy industrial environments |
| Valid reset down to 1V | Guaranteed logic-level output integrity even as VCC collapses, ensuring deterministic μP behavior during power loss |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6388XS30D2-T | 20ms minimum reset timeout vs. 1ms; identical threshold, package, and pinout | Suitable for systems requiring longer reset hold time for slow peripherals or FPGA configuration | Select when extended reset duration is needed without changing layout or firmware timing assumptions |
| MAX6387XS30D1-T | Open-drain active-low RESET output; same 3.00V threshold, 1ms timeout, and RESET IN capability | Requires external pullup resistor; compatible with legacy bus architectures using active-low reset signaling | Choose for designs already using open-drain reset buses or where level-shifting between voltage domains is required |

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6388XS30D1-T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6388XS30D1-T has a factory-set nominal reset threshold of 3.00V with ±2.5% tolerance over the full –40°C to +125°C operating range. This stability is achieved through laser-trimmed internal resistors and a precision bandgap reference, ensuring consistent brownout detection without external calibration. The MAX6388XS30D1-T maintains this accuracy across automotive and industrial environments where supply rails may drift under thermal stress.
Does MAX6388XS30D1-T support monitoring of two independent voltage rails?
Yes, the MAX6388XS30D1-T supports dual-rail supervision: VCC is monitored directly, and a second rail is supervised via the RESET IN pin, which compares an externally divided voltage against a fixed 1.27V internal reference. When either VCC falls below 3.00V or the voltage at RESET IN drops below 1.27V, the active-high RESET output asserts. This enables coordinated reset signaling across core and I/O supplies without additional components.
What is the function of the RESET IN pin on MAX6388XS30D1-T and how is it configured?
The RESET IN pin on MAX6388XS30D1-T is a high-impedance input to an auxiliary comparator with a fixed 1.27V threshold. To monitor a second voltage rail, connect RESET IN to the center node of a resistor divider between that rail and ground. The divider ratio sets the effective reset point using R1 = R2 × ((VINTH/1.27V) – 1). Since RESET IN leakage is ≤50nA, large resistor values (e.g., 100kΩ/100kΩ) maintain accuracy while minimizing quiescent current in the MAX6388XS30D1-T circuit.
Can MAX6388XS30D1-T operate reliably during deep brownout conditions?
Yes, the MAX6388XS30D1-T guarantees correct reset output logic states down to VCC = 1.0V, making it suitable for deep brownout scenarios where supply voltage collapses gradually. Unlike many supervisors that lose output validity near 1.5V, the MAX6388XS30D1-T continues asserting or deasserting RESET with defined voltage levels, ensuring deterministic microprocessor behavior during power failure recovery. This capability is verified across –40°C to +125°C and is critical for fail-safe operation in battery-backed systems.
Is MAX6388XS30D1-T pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX6381–MAX6390 family?
Yes, the MAX6388XS30D1-T shares identical 4-pin SC70 pinout with all other XS-suffix variants in the MAX6381–MAX6390 family, including MAX6384, MAX6385, MAX6386, MAX6387, MAX6389, and MAX6390. This allows drop-in replacement for different reset thresholds (e.g., XS26, XS31), timeout delays (D1–D7), or output types (push-pull vs. open-drain) without PCB redesign. Pin compatibility is confirmed in the official Maxim pin configuration diagrams for 4-pin SC70 packages.
