Product details
Overview
MAX6462XR44+T from Maxim Integrated is a precision ultra-low-power voltage detector IC designed for battery and power-supply monitoring in space-constrained portable systems. It features a 4.40V lower trip threshold (VTH−), 4.529V upper trip threshold (VTH+), ±2.5% threshold accuracy over −40°C to +125°C, 1.0µA supply current at 3.6V, and 17µs propagation delay. It is used in cellular phones and portable medical devices to ensure reliable power-on reset and brownout detection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6462XR44+T datasheet, MAX6462XR44+T pinout, MAX6462XR44+T application, or MAX6462XR44+T equivalent, key selection considerations include its SC70-3 package, active-high push-pull output, 4.4V threshold with 5% hysteresis, and guaranteed operation across automotive-grade temperature range without external components.
Technical Context
The MAX6462XR44+T implements a precision bandgap reference and comparator-based detection architecture with internally trimmed resistor networks. Its dual-threshold behavior (VTH− = 4.40V, VTH+ = 4.529V) enables stable reset assertion during falling VCC and clean release during rising VCC, eliminating chatter near threshold.
It uses a fixed 5% internal hysteresis (VHYST = [(VTH+) − (VTH−)] / VTH− × 100%) and is optimized for low-noise, transient-immune operation - rejecting short-duration VCC glitches up to ~15µs when overdriven by 100mV below VTH−, as confirmed in Typical Operating Characteristics.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.2V to 6.0V - supports direct monitoring of Li+ battery packs, 3.3V/5V rails, and intermediate logic supplies |
| Threshold Voltage (VTH−) | 4.40V (typ) at +25°C, 4.290V to 4.510V over −40°C to +125°C - precise brownout detection for 4.5V nominal systems |
| Threshold Hysteresis | 5% - prevents output oscillation during slow-rising/falling supply transitions near trip point |
| Supply Current | 1.0µA (typ) at 3.6V, ≤3.5µA up to +125°C - enables multi-year battery life in always-on monitoring applications |
| Propagation Delay | 17µs (typ) - ensures fast response to supply faults while maintaining noise immunity |
| Output Type | Push-pull, active-high - drives CMOS/TTL loads directly without pull-up resistors or level-shifting |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial, and extended-range portable use |
Pinout & Package
MAX6462XR44+T is housed in a 3-pin SC70-3 package (2.0mm × 2.1mm × 0.95mm), optimized for high-density PCB layouts in portable electronics. Pin 1 is OUT, Pin 2 is GND, and Pin 3 is VCC.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OUT (Pin 1) | Active-high push-pull output | Asserts high when VCC falls below 4.40V; remains high until VCC rises above 4.529V - directly interfaces with µP RESET# inputs requiring active-high assertion |
| GND (Pin 2) | Ground reference | Return path for internal bandgap reference and comparator; must be connected to system ground plane for accurate threshold tracking |
| VCC (Pin 3) | Supply and monitored input | Single pin serves as both power source and voltage sense node - eliminates need for external divider or sensing circuitry |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 1.0µA typical - extends battery runtime in always-monitoring modes (e.g., sleep-state supervision) |
| Factory-trimmed threshold | 4.40V ±2.5% over full temperature range - eliminates calibration overhead and production test adjustments |
| No external components required | Integrated reference, comparator, and hysteresis - reduces BOM count, board area, and design validation effort |
| Transient immunity | Rejects <15µs VCC glitches at 100mV overdrive - prevents false resets in noisy power environments (e.g., RF-enabled handsets) |
| SC70-3 footprint compatibility | 2.0mm × 2.1mm outline - enables drop-in replacement for other SC70 voltage monitors without layout revision |
Applications
| Cellular Phone Power Supervision | Portable Medical Device Battery Monitoring |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage detector applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV803EB44DBZR | 4.4V threshold, SOT23-3, 0.5µA ICC, but only ±3% accuracy over −40°C to +85°C and no guaranteed 125°C operation | Limited to commercial-temperature consumer gear; lacks automotive/industrial qualification | Choose TLV803EB44DBZR only if cost sensitivity outweighs extended temperature reliability and accuracy needs |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V fixed threshold, not 4.4V; adjustable versions require external resistor - no factory-trimmed 4.4V variant available | Requires redesign to accommodate different threshold; adds BOM and layout complexity | Select TPS3808G33DBVR only if system operates at 3.3V rail and threshold flexibility justifies added component count |
Compared with TLV803EB44DBZR and TPS3808G33DBVR, MAX6462XR44+T uniquely delivers 4.4V precision detection with ±2.5% accuracy across −40°C to +125°C and 1.0µA supply current in SC70-3 - making it the only drop-in solution for high-reliability 4.5V-system supervision without accuracy or temperature compromises.

FAQ
What is the exact voltage threshold of MAX6462XR44+T and how is it specified?
The MAX6462XR44+T has a nominal lower trip threshold (VTH−) of 4.40V at +25°C, with guaranteed range of 4.290V to 4.510V over −40°C to +125°C. Its upper trip threshold (VTH+) is 4.529V (typ), derived from VTH− × 1.05 due to internal 5% hysteresis. These values are factory-trimmed and documented in Tables 1a and 1b of the MAX6461–MAX6466 datasheet.
Does MAX6462XR44+T require external components to operate?
No, MAX6462XR44+T requires no external components. It integrates a precision bandgap reference, comparator, trimmed resistor network, and 5% hysteresis circuit. The single VCC pin serves as both power supply and monitored input, and the active-high push-pull output drives loads directly - eliminating pull-up resistors, dividers, or calibration circuitry.
What is the supply current consumption of MAX6462XR44+T across temperature?
MAX6462XR44+T draws 1.0µA typical at 3.6V and +25°C, ≤2.5µA at +85°C, and ≤3.5µA at +125°C (per Electrical Characteristics table). This ultra-low ICC enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries and makes it ideal for always-on supervision in portable equipment where power budget is constrained.
How does the hysteresis function in MAX6462XR44+T, and why is it important?
MAX6462XR44+T incorporates fixed 5% internal hysteresis: output asserts when VCC falls below VTH− (4.40V) and releases only when VCC rises above VTH+ (4.529V). This prevents output chatter during slow or noisy supply transitions near the threshold - a critical feature for reliable µP reset generation in real-world power environments.
Is MAX6462XR44+T compatible with lead-free assembly processes?
Yes, MAX6462XR44+T uses lead-free packaging, indicated by the "+T" suffix per Maxim's ordering convention. It is rated for reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020, with peak temperature tolerance up to +260°C and qualifies for RoHS-compliant manufacturing without requiring special process modifications.
