Product details
Overview
MAX6389XS33D1-T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with open-drain active-low reset output, factory-set 3.30V ±2.5% reset threshold, and 140ms minimum VCC reset timeout. It monitors single supply voltage (VCC) and includes auxiliary RESET IN input for dual-voltage monitoring, operating across -40°C to +125°C in 4-pin SC70 package. Used in portable battery-powered equipment requiring reliable brownout detection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6389XS33D1-T datasheet, MAX6389XS33D1-T pinout, MAX6389XS33D1-T application, or MAX6389XS33D1-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3.30V reset threshold accuracy over temperature, 140ms timeout, open-drain output requiring external pullup, auxiliary voltage monitoring capability, and AEC-Q100-qualified automotive variant availability.
Technical Context
The MAX6389XS33D1-T implements a precision bandgap-based reset comparator with ±2.5% threshold accuracy over -40°C to +125°C and 60ppm/°C tempco. Its internal timer guarantees minimum 140ms reset assertion after VCC recovers above 3.30V.
It features dual-monitoring architecture: primary VCC sensing and secondary RESET IN input referenced to 1.27V internal reference, enabling user-configurable second-supply monitoring via external resistor divider. Reset asserts if either VCC < 3.30V or RESET IN < 1.27V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.30V ±2.5% (±82.5mV) over -40°C to +125°C - ensures stable brownout detection across automotive and industrial temperature ranges |
| VCC Reset Timeout | 140ms minimum - holds processor in reset long enough for power stabilization after recovery from undervoltage |
| Supply Current | 3μA at +1.8V, 6μA at +3.6V - enables multi-year operation in battery-backed systems |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low - requires external pullup; supports wired-OR reset bus configurations and mixed-voltage interfacing |
| Auxiliary Input | RESET IN comparator with 1.27V reference - allows monitoring of second supply (e.g., I/O rail) using external resistor divider |
| Operating Voltage | 1.0V to 5.5V VCC - guarantees valid reset state down to 1.0V, supporting ultra-low-voltage microcontrollers |
| Reset Propagation Delay | 35μs max (VCC falling at 10mV/µs) - fast response to rapid supply collapse without false triggering on transients |
Pinout & Package
MAX6389XS33D1-T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098), footprint-compatible with industry-standard 0.65mm pitch layouts. Thermal resistance θJA = 322.6°C/W on multilayer board.
| 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 (open-drain) | Active-low reset output requiring external pullup; sinks up to 3.2mA at VCC ≥ 4.5V; remains valid down to VCC = 1.0V |
| 3 | RESET IN | Auxiliary high-impedance input compared to 1.27V internal reference; enables second-supply monitoring via resistor divider |
| 4 | GND | Analog and digital ground reference; must be connected directly to system ground plane for noise immunity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-supply monitoring | Simultaneous VCC (3.30V) and RESET IN (1.27V-referenced) comparators enable independent brownout detection for core and I/O rails |
| Negative-going transient immunity | Rejects VCC glitches ≤ 35μs duration when overdrive is < 100mV - prevents spurious resets in noisy power environments |
| Low-voltage operation guarantee | Reset output logic state remains valid down to VCC = 1.0V - ensures deterministic behavior during deep brownout |
| Factory-trimmed precision | ±2.5% reset threshold tolerance over full temperature range eliminates need for external calibration or trimming components |
| Automotive qualification option | /V suffix variants meet AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements - validated for under-hood and infotainment applications |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6389XS33D2-T | Same 3.30V threshold and open-drain output, but 280ms VCC reset timeout (vs. 140ms) | Suitable where longer reset hold time is required for slower power-up sequences or higher-capacitance rails | Select MAX6389XS33D2-T when system stabilization exceeds 140ms; otherwise MAX6389XS33D1-T minimizes unnecessary reset duration. |
| TLV809K33DBZR | 3.3V threshold, push-pull active-low output, no RESET IN input, 200ms timeout, lower quiescent current (0.5μA) | Lacks auxiliary monitoring; suited for single-rail systems where space or cost constraints preclude dual-input supervision | Choose TLV809K33DBZR for cost-sensitive single-supply designs; retain MAX6389XS33D1-T when dual-rail monitoring is mandatory. |
Compared with MAX6389XS33D2-T, the MAX6389XS33D1-T reduces reset assertion time by half-critical for fast-booting embedded systems-while maintaining identical threshold accuracy and dual-monitoring capability. Against TLV809K33DBZR, it trades lower quiescent current for essential RESET IN functionality, making it irreplaceable in dual-voltage architectures.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6389XS33D1-T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6389XS33D1-T has a factory-set nominal reset threshold of 3.30V with ±2.5% tolerance over the full -40°C to +125°C operating range. This corresponds to ±82.5mV absolute variation. Its 60ppm/°C tempco ensures minimal drift across temperature, and the device guarantees correct reset assertion even at extreme temperatures without external calibration. The MAX6389XS33D1-T maintains this specification without requiring derating or additional compensation circuitry.
Does the MAX6389XS33D1-T support monitoring of a second voltage rail, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the MAX6389XS33D1-T includes a dedicated RESET IN input that compares an external voltage to an internal 1.27V reference. To monitor a second rail (e.g., 1.8V or 5.0V), connect it to RESET IN through a resistor divider configured using R1 = R2 × [(VINTH/1.27V) − 1]. The MAX6389XS33D1-T asserts reset if either VCC falls below 3.30V or the divided RESET IN voltage drops below 1.27V, enabling true dual-supply supervision in compact form factor.
What is the function of the open-drain RESET output on the MAX6389XS33D1-T and what external component is required?
The MAX6389XS33D1-T features an open-drain active-low RESET output, meaning it can only sink current to pull the line low and requires an external pullup resistor to VCC (or another compatible voltage) to achieve high state. This configuration supports wired-OR reset buses, level translation between different logic families, and fault-tolerant reset signaling. A typical 10kΩ–100kΩ pullup is used; the MAX6389XS33D1-T guarantees valid output down to VCC = 1.0V, ensuring deterministic behavior even during deep brownout conditions.
How does the MAX6389XS33D1-T handle short negative-going transients on the VCC line?
The MAX6389XS33D1-T incorporates built-in immunity to short-duration negative-going VCC transients (glitches). Its reset comparator rejects pulses ≤35μs wide when the overdrive (VTH − VCC) is less than 100mV, as verified in the "Maximum Transient Duration vs. Reset Comparator Overdrive" graph. This prevents spurious resets caused by switching noise or coupling. For enhanced immunity, a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor placed close to the VCC pin is recommended, further improving robustness in electrically noisy environments.
Is the MAX6389XS33D1-T qualified for automotive applications, and what packaging options are available?
The MAX6389XS33D1-T itself is not automotive-qualified, but the /V-suffix variant MAX6389XS33D1/V+T is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified for automotive use. Both versions share identical electrical specifications and 4-pin SC70 package (RoHS-compliant, lead-free). The /V version undergoes extended temperature stress testing and failure analysis per AEC-Q100 requirements, making it suitable for under-hood and infotainment applications where reliability under thermal cycling and vibration is critical. The MAX6389XS33D1-T is intended for industrial and commercial-grade systems.
