Product details
Overview
The MAX6440UTEHRD3-T from Maxim Integrated is a single-output, ultra-low-power battery monitor with integrated microprocessor supervisor and push-pull active-low RESET output. It monitors VBATT (1.2V–5.5V) and VCC (1.2V–5.5V), provides factory-trimmed 2.925V/3.000V low-battery thresholds with 150ms timeout hysteresis, draws only 2.5µA typical supply current at 3.6V, and operates across –40°C to +85°C - enabling reliable power management in compact Li+ or alkaline/NiMH portable systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6440UTEHRD3-T datasheet, MAX6440UTEHRD3-T pinout, MAX6440UTEHRD3-T application, or MAX6440UTEHRD3-T equivalent, this device delivers verified dual-threshold battery state signaling, independent VCC reset supervision with 150ms timeout, manual reset capability, and SOT23-6 compatibility for space-constrained embedded designs requiring stable low-voltage monitoring and deterministic system reset behavior.
Technical Context
The MAX6440UTEHRD3-T integrates a precision 1.23V reference, dual comparators, timing logic, and push-pull RESET driver to deliver coordinated battery health assessment and µP supervision. Its LBO output asserts when VBATT falls below the factory-set LTH (2.925V) and deasserts only after VBATT rises above HTH (3.000V) for ≥150ms, eliminating chatter during voltage transients.
VCC supervision uses a separate comparator with fixed 2.925V reset threshold (±75mV tolerance) and 150ms minimum timeout (D3 suffix). The MR input features internal 1.5kΩ pullup, 150ms rising-edge debounce, and 1µs minimum pulse width support - enabling robust push-button reset without external RC networks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBATT Threshold (LTH) | 2.925V (factory-trimmed lower trip point for single-cell Li+ or multi-cell alkaline/NiMH) |
| VBATT Threshold (HTH) | 3.000V (factory-trimmed upper trip point; provides 75mV hysteresis to prevent output oscillation) |
| VCC Reset Threshold | 2.925V ±75mV (ensures deterministic µP reset initiation at defined supply rail collapse point) |
| Supply Current | 2.5µA typical at 3.6V VBATT/3.3V VCC (enables >1-year battery life in always-on monitoring) |
| LBO Timeout Period | 150ms minimum (guarantees stable voltage recovery before deassertion; prevents premature system wake-up) |
| RESET Output Type | Push-pull active-low (drives high to 0.8×VCC when deasserted; eliminates need for external pullup) |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C (fully specified for industrial-grade portable equipment deployment) |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-6 package (6-pin, 2.8mm × 2.9mm × 1.3mm body, lead pitch 0.95mm), JEDEC MO-178 compliant, with exposed pad not connected internally.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VBATT | Battery voltage input and primary power source | Monitors battery health directly; powers device if VBATT > VCC; supports 1.2V–5.5V range |
| 2 - MR | Active-low manual reset input | Internal 1.5kΩ pullup to VCC; debounced rising edge; triggers one-shot RESET pulse for 150ms |
| 3 - LBO | Active-low open-drain low-battery output | Asserts when VBATT < 2.925V; deasserts after VBATT > 3.000V for ≥150ms; compatible with 5.5V logic |
| 4 - RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output | Asserts when VCC < 2.925V; remains low for 150ms after VCC recovery; no external pullup required |
| 5 - GND | Analog/digital ground reference | Common return path for VBATT, VCC, LBO, RESET, and MR; requires low-impedance PCB connection |
| 6 - VCC | System supply voltage input and reset monitor source | Supplies device if VCC > VBATT; monitored for µP reset; supports 1.2V–5.5V operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar battery monitor and µP supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6439UTEHRD3-T | Open-drain RESET output instead of push-pull; identical VBATT/VCC thresholds and timing | Requires external pullup resistor on RESET line; suitable where board layout allows added component | Select when legacy design uses open-drain reset signaling or level-shifting is needed |
| TPS3808G12DBVR | Single VDD supervisor only (no VBATT monitoring); 1.2V reset threshold; 200ms timeout; 1.6µA quiescent current | No battery state awareness; only monitors system rail; lacks LBO functionality entirely | Select when only VCC supervision is required and battery monitoring is handled elsewhere |
Compared with MAX6440UTEHRD3-T, MAX6439UTEHRD3-T adds external pullup overhead but retains identical battery monitoring accuracy, while TPS3808G12DBVR reduces current draw by 0.9µA but removes all battery-level intelligence - making MAX6440UTEHRD3-T uniquely suited for dual-rail autonomous power management.

FAQ
What is the exact low-battery threshold configuration of the MAX6440UTEHRD3-T?
The MAX6440UTEHRD3-T has factory-trimmed VBATT thresholds of 2.925V (LTH) and 3.000V (HTH), with 75mV hysteresis. These values are encoded in the "UTE" (2.925V VCC reset) and "HR" (2.925V/3.000V battery thresholds) suffixes per Maxim's ordering guide. The D3 suffix confirms 150ms timeout for both LBO and RESET assertion/deassertion.
Does the MAX6440UTEHRD3-T require external components for basic operation?
No - the MAX6440UTEHRD3-T requires zero external components for core functionality. Its factory-trimmed thresholds, integrated 1.23V reference, push-pull RESET driver, and internal MR pullup eliminate the need for resistors, capacitors, or diodes in standard implementations, reducing BOM cost and PCB area.
How does the MR input behave during switch bounce on the MAX6440UTEHRD3-T?
The MAX6440UTEHRD3-T implements 150ms rising-edge debounce on the MR pin (tDEB), ignoring subsequent low pulses within that window after initial assertion. This prevents multiple RESET pulses from mechanical switch bounce, ensuring a single, clean one-shot reset event regardless of contact chatter duration.
Can the MAX6440UTEHRD3-T monitor batteries while powering from a different supply rail?
Yes - the MAX6440UTEHRD3-T autonomously selects its power source: it operates from whichever voltage is higher between VBATT and VCC. This allows direct battery voltage monitoring (e.g., 3.6V Li+) while interfacing with a lower 3.3V system rail, with LBO output compatible up to 5.5V logic levels.
What is the maximum allowable transient duration the MAX6440UTEHRD3-T tolerates on VBATT without false LBO assertion?
At 75mV overdrive (i.e., VBATT = LTH + 75mV = 3.000V), the MAX6440UTEHRD3-T tolerates transients up to ~120µs before asserting LBO, as confirmed by Figure TOC04 in the datasheet. This immunity ensures robust operation during brief load-switching spikes or charger-insertion surges.
