Product details
Overview
MAX6448UK31L+T from Maxim Integrated is a single-supply, fixed-threshold microprocessor reset supervisor IC with one extended-setup manual reset input (MR1) and one immediate-assertion manual reset input (MR2), 3.075V VCC reset threshold, 6.72s MR1 setup period, push-pull active-low RESET output, and guaranteed operation from -40°C to +85°C. It prevents nuisance resets in consumer electronics power management systems where front-panel buttons must be held for extended durations to trigger hard reset.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6448UK31L+T datasheet, MAX6448UK31L+T pinout, MAX6448UK31L+T application, or MAX6448UK31L+T equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-mode manual reset logic (extended vs. immediate), 3.075V precision reset threshold, 6.72s validated MR1 hold time, push-pull RESET drive capability down to VCC = 1.0V, and SOT23-5 package compatibility with space-constrained embedded designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6448UK31L+T implements a dual-input reset control architecture: MR1 requires a sustained low state for 6.72s (L-suffix) before asserting RESET, while MR2 triggers an immediate one-shot RESET pulse on rising edge-debounced for 210ms to suppress false assertions during card insertion/removal events. Its internal 50kΩ pullup on MR1 enables direct switch connection without external components.
It monitors only VCC (not RSTIN), uses a factory-trimmed 3.075V reset threshold with ±0.075V tolerance and 60ppm/°C tempco, and guarantees valid RESET assertion down to VCC = 1.0V. The push-pull RESET output sinks up to 1.2mA at VCC ≥ 2.55V and maintains logic integrity across the full -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range.
Key Specifications

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6448UK31L+T?
The MAX6448UK31L+T has a factory-set VCC reset threshold of 3.075V, with a guaranteed tolerance of ±0.075V over temperature. This value is defined by the "31" suffix per Table 1 in the datasheet and is optimized for reliable supervision of standard 3.3V power rails in consumer and industrial equipment.
How does the MR2 input on the MAX6448UK31L+T function differently from MR1?
The MR2 input on the MAX6448UK31L+T responds to a rising edge with immediate one-shot RESET assertion, debounced for 210ms to reject contact bounce. In contrast, MR1 requires a sustained low state for 6.72 seconds (L-suffix) before triggering RESET-enabling distinct use cases such as smart-card detect (MR2) and deliberate system reset (MR1).
Is the RESET output of the MAX6448UK31L+T push-pull or open-drain?
The MAX6448UK31L+T features a push-pull RESET output, confirmed by its "U" prefix in the ordering code (MAX6448UK31L+T) and the functional diagram in the datasheet. This eliminates the need for an external pullup resistor and provides stronger drive capability than open-drain alternatives like the MAX6447UK31L+T.
What package type and pin count does the MAX6448UK31L+T use?
The MAX6448UK31L+T is packaged in a 5-pin SOT23 (package code U5+1), with pin 1 = GND, pin 2 = VCC, pin 3 = MR1, pin 4 = RESET, and pin 5 = MR2. Its land pattern matches standard SOT23-5 footprints (Maxim land pattern 90-0174), enabling drop-in compatibility with existing layouts.
Does the MAX6448UK31L+T support operation below 1.8V VCC?
Yes-the MAX6448UK31L+T is fully specified down to VCC = 1.0V, with guaranteed RESET assertion integrity and 6µA typical supply current at that level. This enables reliable brownout detection in low-voltage systems where other supervisors may fail to assert reset correctly.
