Product details
Overview
MAX6390XS46D4+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with open-drain active-low reset output, factory-set 4.63V reset threshold (±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C), 1120ms VCC reset timeout, and 140ms manual reset timeout. It monitors single supply voltage in battery-powered or industrial embedded systems where reliable power-up sequencing and brownout protection are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6390XS46D4+T datasheet, MAX6390XS46D4+T pinout, MAX6390XS46D4+T application, or MAX6390XS46D4+T equivalent, key selection considerations include its 4-pin SC70 package, 3μA supply current at 1.8V, guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, and dedicated MR input with 1.56kΩ internal pullup resistor.
Technical Context
The MAX6390XS46D4+T implements a precision bandgap-based reset comparator with ±2.5% threshold accuracy across temperature, coupled to a digital timeout counter that enforces minimum 1120ms assertion after VCC recovery and 140ms after MR release. Its open-drain RESET output requires an external pullup and remains valid down to VCC = 1V.
Unlike earlier family members, MAX6390XS46D4+T features a significantly lower MR internal pullup resistance (1.56kΩ vs. 63kΩ in MAX6384–MAX6386), enabling faster MR edge response and improved noise immunity in high-impedance environments - confirmed by 100ns MR glitch rejection and 200ns MR-to-RESET delay.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.63V (nominal), ±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures stable reset assertion across automotive and industrial temperature ranges |
| VCC Reset Timeout | 1120ms (min) - guarantees μP remains held in reset long enough for full power stabilization after brownout recovery |
| Manual Reset Timeout | 140ms (min) - provides short, deterministic reset pulse for operator-initiated recovery without system lockup |
| Supply Current | 3μA at +1.8V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered IoT sensors and portable instrumentation |

| RESET Output Type | Open-drain active-low - allows wired-OR configuration with other reset sources and flexible voltage-level translation |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - ensures valid reset state even during deep brownout conditions before full system shutdown |
Pinout & Package
MAX6390XS46D4+T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SC70 package (outline 21-0098, land pattern 90-0187), measuring 1.3mm × 1.1mm × 0.6mm, optimized for space-constrained portable and wearable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Main supply input and monitored voltage source; powers internal circuitry and reset comparator |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain active-low reset output; requires external pullup; sinks up to 3.2mA at VCC ≥ 4.5V |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC via 1.56kΩ resistor; asserts reset when pulled ≤ 0.3×VCC |
| 4 | GND | Analog and digital ground reference; must be connected to system ground plane for accurate threshold sensing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed 4.63V reset threshold | Eliminates external resistor divider and calibration effort for +5V rail monitoring |
| 1120ms/140ms dual timeout architecture | Separates power-recovery hold time from user-initiated reset duration, preventing spurious reboots |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326XR46D4+T | Same 4.63V threshold and 1120ms timeout, but push-pull active-low output and no MR input | Lacks manual reset capability; requires external pullup not needed for push-pull | Select when board layout prohibits external pullup or MR function is unnecessary |
| TLV803EB46DBZR | 4.63V threshold, 140ms timeout, SOT-23-3 package; no MR input; 0.5μA supply current at 1.8V | Lower power but no manual reset; smaller footprint but higher thermal resistance (θJA = 274°C/W) | Select for ultra-low-power sensor nodes where MR is unused and space is constrained |

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6390XS46D4+T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MAX6390XS46D4+T has a nominal reset threshold of 4.63V, with guaranteed tolerance of ±2.5% over the full operating range of –40°C to +125°C. This stability is achieved through laser-trimmed bandgap reference circuitry and is documented in the Electrical Characteristics table under "VCC Reset Threshold" with min/typ/max values of 4.51V/4.63V/4.74V at +25°C and ±2.5% drift across temperature. The MAX6390XS46D4+T maintains this accuracy without external calibration.
Does MAX6390XS46D4+T support manual reset functionality, and what are the electrical characteristics of its MR pin?
Yes, MAX6390XS46D4+T includes a dedicated active-low manual reset (MR) input. Its MR pin features an internal 1.56kΩ pullup resistor to VCC (significantly lower than the 63kΩ in earlier MAX6384–MAX6386 variants), enabling robust noise immunity and fast edge response. MR asserts reset when driven ≤0.3×VCC and rejects glitches as short as 100ns. The MAX6390XS46D4+T datasheet specifies MR-to-RESET delay as 200ns, confirming deterministic timing for system-level reset coordination.
What package type and pin count does MAX6390XS46D4+T use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
MAX6390XS46D4+T uses a 4-pin SC70 package (outline number 21-0098, land pattern 90-0187), measuring 1.3mm × 1.1mm × 0.6mm. The "+T" suffix explicitly denotes lead(Pb)-free and RoHS-compliant construction per Maxim Integrated's ordering conventions. This package is optimized for high-density PCB layouts in portable and automotive applications where thermal performance and footprint size are critical.
How does the reset timeout behavior differ between VCC recovery and manual reset release in MAX6390XS46D4+T?
MAX6390XS46D4+T implements asymmetric timeout periods: a 1120ms (min) reset assertion period after VCC rises above 4.63V, and a shorter 140ms (min) assertion period after MR is released. This dual-timing architecture prevents unnecessary system downtime during user-triggered resets while ensuring sufficient hold time for full power rail stabilization after brownout. Both timeouts are guaranteed minimum values per the datasheet's "Reset Timeout Period" table for MAX6390.
Can MAX6390XS46D4+T operate reliably at very low supply voltages, and what is its minimum functional VCC?
Yes, MAX6390XS46D4+T guarantees correct reset output logic state down to VCC = 1.0V, as specified in Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics. Its internal circuitry remains fully functional across the 1.0V to 5.5V operating range, and the reset comparator continues to assert correctly even during deep brownout conditions. This ensures deterministic μP behavior in failing-power scenarios where other supervisors may enter undefined states - a key requirement validated in the "Ensuring a Valid RESET Output Down to VCC = 0V" application note section of the MAX6390XS46D4+T datasheet.
