Product details
Overview
MAX6418UK22 from Maxim Integrated is a low-power, dual-voltage microprocessor reset supervisor IC with one factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold (2.188V typical) and one adjustable RESET IN input for monitoring secondary voltages down to 1.26V. It features an active-low push-pull RESET output, capacitor-adjustable reset timeout delay, manual reset capability via MR pin, and operates across -40°C to +125°C in SOT23-5 package. It is used in automotive and industrial embedded controllers requiring reliable brownout detection and dual-rail power sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6418UK22 datasheet, MAX6418UK22 pinout, MAX6418UK22 application, or MAX6418UK22 equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-threshold architecture, 1.7µA quiescent current, guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = 1V, SRT capacitor-based timeout programming, and compatibility with 1.6V–5V system rails.
Technical Context
The MAX6418UK22 integrates two independent reset comparators: one laser-trimmed internal reference for VCC monitoring at 2.188V (±2.5% over temperature), and a high-impedance RESET IN comparator with 1.255V threshold referenced to an internal 1.26V bandgap. Reset assertion occurs if either VCC falls below its threshold or RESET IN drops below 1.255V - enabling simultaneous supervision of primary and auxiliary supply rails.
Its reset timeout is set by an external capacitor on the SRT pin, charged by a precision 240nA current source to a 0.65V internal reference; deassertion occurs once the ramp reaches that level. The MR input includes a 20kΩ internal pullup and supports glitch rejection (75ns) and sub-microsecond pulse detection (1µs minimum width).
Key Specifications

| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return for all internal circuitry and external capacitor (SRT) |
| 3 - RESET IN | Adjustable voltage monitor input | High-impedance (10nA leakage) comparator input; sets secondary rail threshold via resistor divider |
| 4 - MR | Manual reset input | Active-low; internally pulled up to VCC (20kΩ); asserts reset for full timeout after release |
| 5 - SRT | Reset timeout capacitor connection | 240nA precision current source node; requires low-leakage ceramic capacitor to ground |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-voltage monitoring | Simultaneously supervises VCC (2.188V fixed) and a second rail (e.g., 1.2V/1.8V) via RESET IN - eliminates need for two discrete supervisors |
| Capacitor-adjustable timeout | External SRT capacitor sets reset hold time from 275µs to >100ms - enables precise alignment with µP boot sequence timing |
| Low-power operation | 1.7µA typical ICC allows continuous monitoring in energy-constrained applications such as portable medical devices and remote sensors |
| Robust reset assertion | Guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = 1V and immunity to <50µs transients at 100mV overdrive - prevents spurious resets in noisy environments |
| Integrated manual reset | MR pin with 20kΩ internal pullup and 1µs minimum pulse width support - simplifies front-panel reset implementation without external components |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-threshold reset supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6419UK22-T | Identical dual-threshold architecture and pinout, but active-high push-pull RESET output | Requires µP with active-high reset input; incompatible with active-low-only designs without level translation | Select when host µP demands active-high reset assertion and board layout cannot accommodate inversion |
| TPS3808G18DBVR | Single-threshold (1.8V) supervisor with fixed 200ms timeout; no adjustable RESET IN or manual reset | Lacks dual-rail monitoring and user-programmable timeout; suitable only for single-rail applications | Choose only for cost-sensitive, single-supply systems where secondary rail supervision is unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6419UK22-T, MAX6418UK22 offers active-low reset polarity essential for legacy µPs, while TPS3808G18DBVR trades flexibility for lower unit cost and simpler design - making MAX6418UK22 the optimal choice for dual-rail, low-power, automotive-grade supervision where timing and polarity are critical.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC reset threshold voltage for MAX6418UK22?
The MAX6418UK22 has a factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold of 2.188V typical (2.133V min / 2.243V max), corresponding to suffix "22" per Maxim's Reset Voltages Suffix Table. This value is guaranteed over the full -40°C to +125°C operating range with ±2.5% accuracy, making it suitable for supervising 2.2V nominal supply rails in automotive and industrial applications.
How do I calculate the SRT capacitor value for a 50ms reset timeout with MAX6418UK22?
Use the formula CSRT = (tRP − 275µs) / 2.71×10⁶, where tRP is in seconds. For 50ms (0.05s): CSRT = (0.05 − 0.000275) / 2,710,000 ≈ 18.3nF. A standard 18nF X7R ceramic capacitor with <10nA leakage is recommended. Verify timing with oscilloscope measurement, as layout parasitics and capacitor tolerance affect final accuracy.
Can MAX6418UK22 monitor a 1.2V supply using the RESET IN pin?
Yes. The RESET IN pin has a fixed 1.255V threshold, so to monitor a 1.2V rail, use a resistor divider (e.g., R1 = 1MΩ, R2 = 12.5MΩ) to scale the 1.2V rail up to ~1.255V at RESET IN. The MAX6418UK22 datasheet provides the exact formula: VMON_TH = 1.26 × (R1 + R2)/R2. This enables precise supervision of sub-1.8V supplies without external comparators.
Does MAX6418UK22 require external components for basic operation?
Only the SRT capacitor is required for programmable timeout; all other functions operate with zero external parts. The MR pin has an internal 20kΩ pullup, RESET IN uses internal biasing, and the push-pull RESET output drives µP inputs directly. A 100kΩ pulldown on RESET is optional only if valid logic down to VCC = 0V is needed - not required for standard operation.
Is MAX6418UK22 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes - the MAX6418UK22 is fully specified from -40°C to +125°C and manufactured in Maxim's AEC-Q100–qualified process. While the base part number does not carry the "/V" automotive suffix, its datasheet explicitly lists Automotive as a target application, and its electrical specs (e.g., transient immunity, wide VCC range, guaranteed 1V operation) meet automotive subsystem requirements. For ASIL-B systems, verify compliance with your Tier 1's qualification protocol.
