Product details
Overview
MAX6422XS29+T from Analog Devices is a low-power, active-high push-pull microprocessor reset supervisor IC designed for precise VCC monitoring in space-constrained systems. It asserts a high-level RESET signal when supply voltage falls below 2.925V (min), holds it for a capacitor-adjustable timeout (e.g., 4.375ms with 1500pF), and guarantees valid output down to VCC = 1V. Used in battery-powered controllers and portable equipment requiring reliable power-on reset sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6422XS29+T datasheet, MAX6422XS29+T pinout, MAX6422XS29+T application, or MAX6422XS29+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.925V–2.998V factory-trimmed reset threshold, 1.6µA typical quiescent current, SC70-4 package footprint, and active-high push-pull output compatible with 1.6V–5.5V VCC rails.
Technical Context
The MAX6422XS29+T implements a precision voltage detector with laser-trimmed internal resistors to set its nominal 2.925V reset threshold, with ±1.5% accuracy at +25°C and ±2.5% over –40°C to +125°C. Its SRT pin sources a stable 240nA ramp current to charge an external capacitor, generating a reset timeout period defined by tRP = 2.73×10⁶ × CSRT + 275µs.
Unlike open-drain variants, the MAX6422XS29+T features a push-pull output capable of sourcing 200µA at 0.8×VCC (VCC ≥ 1.8V) and sinking 500µA while maintaining VOL ≤ 0.3V - eliminating need for external pull-up components and enabling direct interface with CMOS µP reset inputs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.925V (min) to 2.998V (max); factory-laser-trimmed for stable brownout detection at ~2.925V nominal |
| Quiescent Current | 1.6µA (typ) at VCC ≤ 2.0V; enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered systems |
| Reset Timeout Range | 275µs (CSRT = 0) to >6ms (CSRT = 2.2nF); adjustable via external capacitor on SRT pin |
| Output Type | Active-high push-pull; drives RESET high without external components, compatible with standard µP reset inputs |
| Operating Voltage | 1.0V to 5.5V VCC; ensures valid RESET assertion even during deep brownout down to 1V supply |
| Temperature Range | –40°C to +125°C; qualified for automotive and industrial environments without derating |
| VCC to Reset Delay | 80µs (typ); fast response to supply droop prevents premature µP execution during power-up |
Pinout & Package
MAX6422XS29+T is housed in a 4-pin SC70-4 package (package code X4+1), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm, optimized for ultra-compact PCB layouts in portable and wearable electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - GND | Ground reference | Return path for internal circuitry and SRT ramp current; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 2 - VCC | Supply and threshold monitor input | Primary power rail input; voltage monitored against internal reference to trigger reset assertion |
| 3 - SRT | Set Reset Timeout input | Connects to external timing capacitor; 240nA constant-current source charges CSRT to generate programmable delay |
| 4 - RESET | Active-high push-pull reset output | Drives high to reset µP upon VCC drop; sinks current to deassert; no external pull-up required |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Capacitor-adjustable reset timeout | Enables precise tailoring of reset hold time (275µs–6ms+) to match µP requirements without firmware changes |
| Guaranteed RESET validity to VCC = 1V | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during deep brownout, preventing undefined µP state before full power recovery |
| Immunity to short VCC transients | Rejects glitches ≤50µs duration when VCC dips 100mV below threshold, avoiding spurious resets in noisy environments |
| Low-leakage SRT pin design | Minimizes timing error from board leakage; requires short trace routing and avoidance of adjacent high-speed signals |
| Factory-trimmed reset threshold | 2.925V nominal with ±1.5% initial accuracy eliminates need for external calibration or trimming components |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6421XS29+T | Identical SC70-4 package and 2.925V threshold, but features active-low push-pull RESET output | Requires µP with active-low reset input; incompatible with active-high-only designs without logic inversion | Select when system architecture mandates active-low reset signaling and no level translation is desired |
| MAX6424UK29+T | Same 2.925V threshold and active-high push-pull output, but in 5-pin SOT23-5 package with N.C. pin | Larger footprint and different pinout; not drop-in replaceable due to extra pin and layout mismatch | Choose when SOT23-5 is preferred for assembly compatibility or thermal performance, accepting PCB redesign |
Compared with MAX6421XS29+T and MAX6424UK29+T, the MAX6422XS29+T uniquely combines active-high push-pull drive, SC70-4 compactness, and 2.925V threshold in a single optimized package-making it the only choice for space-constrained designs requiring direct active-high µP reset assertion without layout or logic adaptation.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage range for MAX6422XS29+T?
The MAX6422XS29+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold range of 2.925V (minimum) to 2.998V (maximum) at +25°C, with ±2.5% tolerance over the full –40°C to +125°C operating temperature range. This corresponds to the "29" suffix per Table 1 in the datasheet, and is laser-trimmed for precision without external components.
Does MAX6422XS29+T require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
No, MAX6422XS29+T does not require an external pull-up resistor because it features an active-high push-pull RESET output. The internal driver actively sources current to pull RESET high and sinks current to pull it low, enabling direct connection to standard CMOS µP reset inputs without additional passive components.
How is the reset timeout period set for MAX6422XS29+T?
The reset timeout period for MAX6422XS29+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 is in farads. A 1500pF capacitor yields a typical timeout of 4.375ms.
What package type and dimensions does MAX6422XS29+T use?
MAX6422XS29+T uses the SC70-4 package (package code X4+1), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm with a 0.65mm pitch. It is lead(Pb)-free ("+T" suffix), RoHS-compliant, and supplied in tape-and-reel format for automated assembly.
Can MAX6422XS29+T operate reliably below 1.6V supply voltage?
Yes, MAX6422XS29+T is specified to operate down to VCC = 1.0V and guarantees valid RESET output down to VCC = 1.0V. Its internal circuitry remains functional and the push-pull output maintains specified VOL and VOH levels even at 1.0V, supporting ultra-low-voltage brownout detection.
