Product details
Overview
The MAX6422XS26+T from Analog Devices is a low-power, active-high push-pull microprocessor supervisor IC that monitors VCC supply voltage (2.559V to 2.691V threshold) and asserts a reset signal during brownout, power-up, or power-down events. It features capacitor-adjustable reset timeout (3.0–5.75ms with 1500pF), 1.6µA typical quiescent current, and guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1V. It is used in battery-powered controllers and portable medical instruments requiring precise, low-power reset control.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6422XS26+T datasheet, MAX6422XS26+T pinout, MAX6422XS26+T application, or MAX6422XS26+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its active-high push-pull output, SC70-4 package, ±2.5% reset threshold accuracy over –40°C to +125°C, and immunity to sub-50µs VCC transients at 100mV overdrive.
Technical Context
The MAX6422XS26+T implements a precision voltage detector with laser-trimmed internal resistors defining a nominal 2.625V reset threshold (suffix "26"), with hysteresis of 4×VTH (≈10.5mV). Its SRT pin sources a stable 240nA ramp current to charge an external capacitor, generating a reset timeout period governed by tRP = 2.73×10⁶ × CSRT + 275µs.
Unlike open-drain variants, the MAX6422XS26+T drives RESET high actively (VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC at ISOURCE = 200µA) and low actively (VOL ≤ 0.4V at ISINK = 3.2mA), eliminating need for external pull-ups. It operates across full industrial temperature range (–40°C to +125°C) with supply voltage range 1.0V to 5.5V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.625V nominal (2.559V–2.691V), enabling reliable detection of 2.6V system rail brownout |
| Quiescent Current | 1.6µA typical at VCC ≤ 2.0V, supporting multi-year battery life in portable devices |
| Reset Timeout Range | 0.275ms (CSRT = 0) to 5.75ms (CSRT = 1500pF), configurable for µP startup timing compliance |

Pinout & Package
The MAX6422XS26+T is housed in a 4-pin SC70-4 package (package code X4+1, outline 21-0098), measuring 1.25mm × 0.85mm × 0.55mm, suitable for space-constrained portable PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VCC) | Supply and threshold monitor input | Primary power rail connection; internal voltage divider references this node for reset decision |
| 2 (GND) | Ground reference | Analog and digital ground return path; must be low-impedance for accurate threshold sensing |
| 3 (RESET) | Active-high push-pull reset output | Drives µP reset pin high during normal operation; pulls low only during reset assertion |
| 4 (SRT) | Reset timeout capacitor input | Sources 240nA current to external capacitor; determines reset deassertion delay timing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Laser-trimmed reset threshold | ±1.5% accuracy at +25°C, ±2.5% over full temperature range, reducing calibration overhead |
| Capacitor-adjustable timeout | Enables precise matching to µP's required reset hold time without firmware changes |
| Ultra-low ICC | 1.6µA typical at 2.0V ensures minimal impact on battery runtime in always-on monitoring |
| Push-pull RESET output | Eliminates external pull-up resistor, simplifying BOM and layout for single-supply systems |
| VCC = 1V operation guarantee | Ensures predictable reset state even during severe brownout, preventing runaway µP execution |
Applications
| Portable Medical Monitors | Battery-Powered Industrial Controllers |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Continuous ECG or glucose meter operation powered by coin-cell batteries. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 3.3V system rail and triggers controlled µP reset upon voltage sag below 2.625V. Use Value: 1.6µA quiescent current extends battery life beyond 5 years; active-high output directly interfaces with µP reset pin without level-shifting. | Use Scenario: Remote sensor node in oil-field telemetry, operating unattended for months. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors Li-ion battery output (2.8V–4.2V) and asserts reset if voltage drops below 2.625V during cold start. Use Value: –40°C to +125°C rating ensures reliability in extreme ambient; 50µs transient immunity prevents false resets from motor switching noise. |
| Automotive Body Control Modules | Handheld Test Equipment |
Use Scenario: Dashboard cluster module subjected to load-dump and cold-crank conditions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides fail-safe reset supervision for ARM-based MCU during 12V battery dips to 6V. Use Value: Valid operation down to VCC = 1V ensures reset assertion remains active until supply recovers sufficiently for safe MCU boot. | Use Scenario: Portable oscilloscope with FPGA-based acquisition engine and rechargeable battery pack. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Guarantees clean FPGA configuration after power-on by holding reset for ≥4ms via 1500pF SRT capacitor. Use Value: Adjustable timeout eliminates need for custom firmware delays; SC70-4 footprint saves board area in compact handheld enclosure. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6421XS26+T | Active-low push-pull RESET output; identical threshold, timing, and package | Requires inverted logic interface on µP reset pin; no external pull-up needed | Select when target µP accepts active-low reset and board layout already accommodates polarity |
| TLV803EB26DBZR | Fixed 2.63V threshold, 200ms min timeout (non-adjustable), SOT-23-3 package, 0.5µA ICC | Lacks capacitor-adjustable delay; smaller footprint but no timing flexibility | Choose for ultra-low-power, cost-sensitive designs where fixed long timeout suffices |
Compared with MAX6421XS26+T, the MAX6422XS26+T avoids logic inversion requirements; compared with TLV803EB26DBZR, it offers precise timeout tuning and higher drive strength, at the cost of one extra pin and slightly higher ICC.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6422XS26+T?
The MAX6422XS26+T has a factory-laser-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 2.625V, with guaranteed limits of 2.559V (min) and 2.691V (max) at +25°C. Over the full –40°C to +125°C operating range, the threshold varies within ±2.5% of nominal, maintaining robust brownout detection for 2.6V rails. This value is confirmed in Table 1 of the official Analog Devices datasheet (Rev 11, 9/24).
Does the MAX6422XS26+T require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
No, the MAX6422XS26+T does not require an external pull-up resistor because it features an active-high push-pull RESET output. The device actively drives the RESET pin high during normal operation and pulls it low during reset assertion. This eliminates external components, reduces BOM count, and ensures fast, rail-to-rail logic transitions - a key differentiator from open-drain variants like the MAX6423XS26+T.
How is the reset timeout period set for the MAX6422XS26+T?
The reset timeout period for the MAX6422XS26+T is set by connecting an external capacitor (CSRT) between the SRT pin and GND. The relationship is tRP = 2.73×10⁶ × CSRT + 275µs, where tRP is in seconds and CSRT in farads. For example, a 1500pF capacitor yields 3.0–5.75ms timeout. Ceramic capacitors with leakage <10nA are recommended to maintain accuracy, as specified in the Analog Devices datasheet.
What package type and dimensions does the MAX6422XS26+T use?
The MAX6422XS26+T uses a 4-pin SC70-4 package (Analog Devices package code X4+1, outline 21-0098), measuring 1.25mm × 0.85mm × 0.55mm. It is RoHS-compliant and supplied in tape-and-reel format. This ultra-small footprint enables high-density placement in portable and wearable electronics where board space is at a premium - a critical advantage over larger SOT-23 alternatives.
Is the MAX6422XS26+T suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the MAX6422XS26+T is rated for operation from –40°C to +125°C and is designed for automotive subsystems such as body control modules and infotainment power management. While the specific variant MAX6422XS26+T is not individually AEC-Q100 certified, it shares architecture and process (BiCMOS) with AEC-Q100-qualified members of the same family (e.g., MAX6340UK31/V+T), and its electrical specifications meet automotive environmental stress requirements per the datasheet.
