Product details
Overview
MAX6389XS29D3+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with open-drain active-low reset output, factory-set 2.93V VCC reset threshold (±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C), 140ms minimum reset timeout, and auxiliary RESET IN input for dual-voltage monitoring. It operates from 1.0V to 5.5V supply and consumes only 3μA at 1.8V, targeting battery-powered embedded systems requiring reliable power-on reset and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6389XS29D3+T datasheet, MAX6389XS29D3+T pinout, MAX6389XS29D3+T application, or MAX6389XS29D3+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.93V reset threshold accuracy, 140ms VCC reset timeout, open-drain output requiring external pullup, RESET IN comparator referenced to +1.27V, and guaranteed valid reset state down to VCC = 1V.
Technical Context
The MAX6389XS29D3+T integrates a precision voltage comparator monitoring VCC against a factory-trimmed 2.93V threshold and a separate high-impedance RESET IN input compared to an internal +1.27V reference. Reset assertion occurs when either voltage falls below its respective threshold, with independent timing control via a 140ms minimum timeout after recovery.
Its open-drain RESET output requires an external pullup resistor and guarantees VOL ≤ 0.3V at ISINK = 1.2mA (VCC ≥ 2.5V) and ≤ 0.3V at ISINK = 80µA (VCC ≥ 1.0V). The device maintains functional reset behavior across -40°C to +125°C and supports negative-going VCC transient immunity up to 35µs for 100mV overdrive.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Reset Threshold | 2.93V nominal, ±2.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures accurate brownout detection across automotive/industrial temperature range |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms minimum - provides sufficient hold time for μP initialization after power stabilization |
| Supply Current | 3μA at VCC = 1.8V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors |
| RESET Output Type | Open-drain active-low - allows wired-OR configuration and level translation with external pullup |
| RESET IN Threshold | +1.27V reference, ±2.5% over temperature - supports user-defined secondary voltage monitoring via resistor divider |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - guarantees functional reset assertion even during deep brownout conditions |

Pinout & Package
MAX6389XS29D3+T is packaged in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 (package code X4+1, outline 21-0098) with 0.65mm pitch and thermal resistance θJA = 322.6°C/W on multilayer board.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Primary supply input and monitored voltage rail; powers internal circuitry and sets reset threshold reference point |
| 2 | RESET (open-drain) | Active-low reset signal output; requires external pullup resistor to define logic-high level and sink current during assertion |
| 3 | RESET IN | Auxiliary high-impedance input compared to +1.27V reference; enables monitoring of second voltage rail via external resistor divider |
| 4 | GND | Analog and digital ground reference; must be connected directly to system ground plane for stable comparator operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-voltage supervision | Simultaneous monitoring of VCC and external rail via RESET IN enables robust power sequencing in dual-supply systems |
| Factory-trimmed threshold accuracy | ±2.5% over full -40°C to +125°C range eliminates need for external calibration in automotive/industrial applications |
| Negative transient immunity | Withstands VCC glitches up to 35µs duration at 100mV overdrive - reduces false resets in electrically noisy environments |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 3μA at 1.8V enables integration into always-on battery-backed subsystems without compromising runtime |
| Valid reset down to 1V supply | Guarantees correct logic state on RESET pin even during deep brownout - prevents μP lockup before complete power loss |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6389LT29D3+T | Same electrical specs but in 6-pin µDFN package (L611+1) instead of 4-pin SC70; includes NC pins not present in SC70 variant | Preferred for high-density PCB layouts where µDFN thermal performance (θJA = 477°C/W) or mechanical robustness is prioritized over footprint size | Select MAX6389LT29D3+T when board space allows larger package and higher power dissipation margin is needed. |
| MAX6387XS29D3+T | Identical 4-pin SC70 package and 2.93V/140ms specs, but adds manual reset input (MR) - not present in MAX6389XS29D3+T | Suitable for systems requiring operator-initiated reset (e.g., field-serviceable medical devices), whereas MAX6389XS29D3+T targets fully autonomous supervision | Choose MAX6387XS29D3+T only if manual reset functionality is required; otherwise MAX6389XS29D3+T offers simpler BOM and layout. |
Compared with MAX6389LT29D3+T, the MAX6389XS29D3+T saves board area with its smaller SC70 footprint but trades off thermal performance; versus MAX6387XS29D3+T, it removes MR complexity for cost-sensitive, reset-only applications where manual intervention is unnecessary.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6389XS29D3+T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6389XS29D3+T has a factory-set VCC reset threshold of 2.93V nominal, with guaranteed accuracy of ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C. This stability is achieved through laser trimming during production and is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "VCC Reset Threshold" with min/typ/max values of 2.85V/2.93V/3.00V at +25°C and wider bounds across temperature.
Does MAX6389XS29D3+T support monitoring a second voltage rail, and how is it implemented?
Yes, MAX6389XS29D3+T supports dual-voltage supervision via its dedicated RESET IN pin, which connects to an internal comparator referenced to +1.27V. To monitor a second rail, apply the target voltage to RESET IN through a resistor divider network - the threshold is set using R1 = R2 × [(VINTH / 1.27V) – 1], enabling precise user-defined trip points without additional ICs.
What are the key timing parameters for reset assertion and deassertion in MAX6389XS29D3+T?
MAX6389XS29D3+T asserts reset within 35µs after VCC falls below 2.93V (measured at 10mV/µs slew rate) and holds reset active for a minimum of 140ms after VCC rises above threshold. The RESET IN path adds 4.5µs propagation delay. These timings ensure reliable μP initialization while rejecting short transients - all guaranteed over -40°C to +125°C.
Can MAX6389XS29D3+T operate reliably at very low supply voltages, and what is the minimum functional VCC?
Yes, MAX6389XS29D3+T is guaranteed to maintain valid reset output logic states down to VCC = 1.0V, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Its open-drain RESET output remains functional with VOL ≤ 0.3V at ISINK = 80µA even at this low voltage, ensuring deterministic μP reset behavior during deep brownout conditions.
What package type and footprint does MAX6389XS29D3+T use, and are land patterns available?
MAX6389XS29D3+T uses a 4-pin SC70 package (outline number 21-0098, package code X4+1) with 0.65mm pin pitch and RoHS-compliant lead-free finish. Official land pattern number 90-0187 is published by Maxim Integrated and available at maximintegrated.com/packages; the small 1.3mm × 1.1mm footprint supports high-density PCB layouts in portable and wearable applications.
