Product details
Overview
MAX6418UK16+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power dual-voltage microprocessor supervisor IC with one factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold (1.575V, ±2.5%) and one adjustable RESET IN input (1.26V threshold) for monitoring two independent supply rails. It features an active-low push-pull RESET output, capacitor-adjustable reset timeout (275µs to 5.75ms), manual reset capability via MR pin, and operates across –40°C to +125°C in automotive and industrial embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6418UK16+T datasheet, MAX6418UK16+T pinout, MAX6418UK16+T application, or MAX6418UK16+T equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-rail voltage monitoring capability, guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = 1V, ultra-low quiescent current (1.7µA typ at 1.8V), SOT23-5 package compatibility, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use cases.
Technical Context
The MAX6418UK16+T integrates a precision bandgap reference, high-impedance adjustable comparator for external resistor-divider–based voltage monitoring (RESET IN), and a factory-laser-trimmed VCC threshold comparator. Its reset timeout is generated by a 240nA internal current source charging an external capacitor on the SRT pin, with deassertion triggered when the ramp reaches 0.65V.
It supports dual-supply supervision: VCC is monitored against a fixed 1.575V threshold (suffix "16"), while RESET IN monitors an externally set voltage ≥1.26V using R1/R2 divider. The active-low push-pull RESET output drives µP reset inputs directly without pull-up resistors and remains asserted for the full timeout after all fault conditions clear.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Reset Threshold | 1.575V ±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable brownout detection for 1.6V–5V supplies |
| RESET IN Threshold | 1.26V ±33mV hysteresis - enables precise external rail monitoring down to 1.26V with resistor-divider scaling |
| Quiescent Current | 1.7µA typical at VCC = 1.8V - minimizes battery drain in portable and always-on systems |
| Reset Timeout Range | 275µs to 5.75ms (CSRT = 0F to 1500pF) - configurable delay meets diverse µP reset timing requirements |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control environments |
| RESET Output Type | Active-low push-pull - eliminates need for external pull-up; sinks 3.2mA at VCC ≥ 4.5V |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - guarantees valid RESET assertion even during deep brownout conditions |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-5 package (U5+2A outline, RoHS-compliant, 5-pin surface-mount). Thermal resistance θJA = 255.9°C/W on multi-layer board.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output | Drives µP reset input directly; logic low during fault or timeout; no external pull-up required |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal circuitry and external capacitor (SRT) |
| 3 - RESET IN | Adjustable reset comparator input | High-impedance node for external resistor-divider; sets second monitored voltage threshold ≥1.26V |
| 4 - SRT | Set reset timeout input | Connects to external capacitor (CSRT); 240nA current source charges it to generate precise timeout period |
| 5 - VCC | Supply voltage and fixed-threshold monitor input | Powers device and feeds internal 1.575V comparator; valid operation from 1.0V to 5.5V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-voltage supervision | Simultaneously monitors VCC (1.575V fixed) and external rail (adjustable ≥1.26V) - eliminates need for two discrete supervisors |
| Capacitor-programmable timeout | External CSRT sets delay from 275µs to 5.75ms with <±10% tolerance - replaces fixed-delay ICs and simplifies BOM |
| Guaranteed RESET down to VCC = 1V | Valid logic level maintained even during severe brownout - prevents spurious µP release before stable power |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Qualified per AEC-Q100 Rev H for automotive applications - supports under-hood and ADAS subsystems |
| Low-leakage RESET IN | 10nA max input leakage - enables use of MΩ-range divider resistors, minimizing standby current in battery systems |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6419UK16+T | Active-high push-pull RESET output instead of active-low | Requires µP with active-high reset input; incompatible with active-low-only processors | Select when system architecture mandates active-high reset assertion |
| TPS3808G16DBVR | Fixed 1.6V VDD threshold only; no adjustable RESET IN input; 3.5µA ICC (vs. 1.7µA) | Single-rail supervision only; cannot monitor dual supplies without additional components | Choose for cost-sensitive single-supply designs where dual monitoring is unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6419UK16+T, the MAX6418UK16+T provides native active-low reset drive for legacy µPs, while TPS3808G16DBVR lacks dual-rail capability entirely-making MAX6418UK16+T the only option among the three that delivers true dual-voltage supervision with ultra-low ICC and AEC-Q100 compliance.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC reset threshold voltage for MAX6418UK16+T?
The MAX6418UK16+T has a factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold of 1.575V, with ±1.25% accuracy at +25°C and ±2.5% over the full –40°C to +125°C operating range. This value is defined by the "16" suffix per Maxim's Reset Voltages Suffix Table and is laser-trimmed during production for high precision.
How do I configure the adjustable RESET IN input on MAX6418UK16+T?
To configure the adjustable RESET IN input on MAX6418UK16+T, connect an external resistor divider (R1 and R2) between VCC and GND, with the midpoint tied to the RESET IN pin. Use VRST = 1.26V and the formula VMON_TH = 1.26 × (R1 + R2)/R2 to set the desired threshold; for example, R2 = 1MΩ and R1 = 252kΩ yields ~1.575V.
What capacitor value gives a 4.375ms reset timeout for MAX6418UK16+T?
A 1500pF capacitor (CSRT) between SRT and GND yields a nominal 4.375ms reset timeout for MAX6418UK16+T, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under tRP conditions. The relationship is linear: tRP = (2.71 × 10⁶) × CSRT + 275µs, so CSRT = (tRP − 275µs) / 2.71 × 10⁶.
Is MAX6418UK16+T compatible with 1.0V supply operation?
Yes, MAX6418UK16+T operates with VCC as low as 1.0V and guarantees valid RESET output behavior down to this level. The RESET output remains functional and logic-defined (active-low) even at VCC = 1.0V, enabling robust brownout protection in ultra-low-voltage systems.
Does MAX6418UK16+T require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
No, MAX6418UK16+T does not require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin because it features an active-low push-pull output stage. The internal driver actively pulls RESET low during assertion and high during deassertion, eliminating reliance on external components for logic-level integrity.
