Product details
Overview
MAX6389XS29D2+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power, open-drain active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit designed for dual-voltage monitoring in embedded systems. It features a factory-set VCC reset threshold of 2.93V (min), 3.00V (nom), 3.08V (max), a 20ms minimum reset timeout, and auxiliary RESET IN input for secondary voltage monitoring. It operates across -40°C to +125°C and consumes only 3μA at 1.8V, making it suitable for battery-powered instrumentation and automotive-grade power sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6389XS29D2+T datasheet, MAX6389XS29D2+T pinout, MAX6389XS29D2+T application, or MAX6389XS29D2+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its open-drain active-low reset output, ±2.5% reset threshold accuracy over temperature, guaranteed valid reset state down to VCC = 1V, and support for dual-supply monitoring via RESET IN comparator referenced to 1.27V.
Technical Context
The MAX6389XS29D2+T implements a precision bandgap-based reset comparator for VCC with ±2.5% accuracy from -40°C to +125°C and a separate high-impedance RESET IN input compared against an internal 1.27V reference. Its open-drain RESET output requires an external pullup and remains asserted low for ≥20ms after VCC or RESET IN recovers above their respective thresholds.
It supports dual-supply monitoring without external components beyond the resistor divider on RESET IN, and guarantees correct logic state for VCC ≥ 1V - critical for brownout detection in low-voltage core/I/O domains. Negative-going VCC transient immunity is characterized up to 35µs for 100mV overdrive.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6389LT29D2+T | Same electrical specs but in 6-pin µDFN (L611+1) instead of 4-pin SC70; includes NC pins | Requires different footprint and land pattern; higher thermal resistance (θJA = 477°C/W vs. 322.6°C/W) | Select when board layout accommodates larger package or when µDFN thermal performance is acceptable |
| TPS3808G30DBVR | Active-low open-drain reset; 3.0V threshold (±0.5%); 20ms timeout; 1.4μA typical ICC at 3.3V | No auxiliary RESET IN input; single-rail only; lower supply current but no dual-monitoring capability | Choose for cost-sensitive single-supply designs where RESET IN functionality is unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6389XS29D2+T, the MAX6389LT29D2+T offers identical supervision functionality in a larger package suited for higher-power layouts, while the TPS3808G30DBVR provides tighter threshold accuracy and lower current but lacks dual-rail monitoring - making MAX6389XS29D2+T uniquely suited for space-constrained dual-voltage systems requiring minimal BOM expansion.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage range for MAX6389XS29D2+T?
The MAX6389XS29D2+T has a factory-set VCC reset threshold of 2.93V (minimum), 3.00V (nominal), and 3.08V (maximum) at +25°C, with ±2.5% accuracy maintained over -40°C to +125°C. This corresponds to the "29" suffix in the part number and is verified in the Reset Thresholds table of the official datasheet. The MAX6389XS29D2+T uses this precise window to reliably detect brownout conditions on 3.0V rails.
Does MAX6389XS29D2+T support monitoring a second voltage rail?
Yes, MAX6389XS29D2+T includes a dedicated RESET IN pin that connects to an internal 1.27V comparator. By applying a resistor divider to this pin, users can set a custom secondary reset threshold - for example, monitoring a 5V LIN transceiver supply while the main VCC pin watches a 3.0V MCU rail. This dual-monitoring capability is intrinsic to the MAX6389XS29D2+T and eliminates the need for a second supervisor IC.
What is the function of the RESET output on MAX6389XS29D2+T?
The RESET output of MAX6389XS29D2+T is an open-drain, active-low signal. It pulls low when either VCC drops below 2.93V–3.08V or the voltage at RESET IN falls below ~1.27V, and remains low for ≥20ms after recovery. An external pullup resistor is required. This configuration allows wired-OR connection with other reset sources and supports level-shifting across voltage domains - a key design feature of the MAX6389XS29D2+T.
What package type and dimensions does MAX6389XS29D2+T use?
MAX6389XS29D2+T is supplied in a lead-free, RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm. Its pinout is VCC (Pin 1), RESET (Pin 2), GND (Pin 3), and RESET IN (Pin 4). This compact footprint is optimized for space-constrained applications such as wearables and automotive sensors where the MAX6389XS29D2+T delivers dual-supply supervision in minimal area.
How does MAX6389XS29D2+T handle power supply transients?
MAX6389XS29D2+T provides built-in immunity to short negative-going VCC transients: it will not assert reset for glitches ≤35µs wide when the overdrive (VTH – VCC) is 100mV, as characterized in the Typical Operating Characteristics graph. This transient rejection is inherent to the MAX6389XS29D2+T's comparator architecture and enhances reliability in electrically noisy environments like automotive power nets or industrial motor drives.
