Product details
Overview
MAX6463UR46+T from Maxim Integrated is an ultra-low-power voltage detector with active-low open-drain output, 4.6V lower trip threshold (VTH−), ±2.5% threshold accuracy over −40°C to +125°C, 17µs propagation delay, and 1.0µA supply current at 3.6V - used for precision battery monitoring and noise-immune µP reset in portable medical devices and cellular phones.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6463UR46+T datasheet, MAX6463UR46+T pinout, MAX6463UR46+T application, or MAX6463UR46+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its factory-set 4.6V detection threshold, SC70-3/SOT23-3 package compatibility, open-drain output requiring external pull-up, and immunity to short VCC transients up to 20µs at 100mV overdrive.
Technical Context
The MAX6463UR46+T implements a precision bandgap reference and comparator with internally trimmed resistor networks to set VTH− = 4.6V (min 4.485V, max 4.715V at −40°C to +125°C) and VTH+ = VTH− × 1.05, delivering 5% internal hysteresis to prevent chatter near threshold. It operates across 1.2V to 6.0V supply range and asserts output low when VCC falls below VTH−, holding low until VCC rises above VTH+.
No external components are required: the device integrates hysteresis, temperature-stable thresholding, and transient immunity without trimming or calibration. Its open-drain output supports logic-level translation by connecting the pull-up to any voltage rail from 0V to 6V, enabling interface with systems operating at different supply voltages than VCC.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VTH− Threshold | 4.600V (typ), 4.485V–4.715V (min/max over −40°C to +125°C); enables precise 4.6V brown-out detection for Li+ battery systems. |
| Supply Current | 1.0µA (typ at 3.6V, −40°C to +125°C); extends battery life in always-on monitoring applications. |
| Propagation Delay | 17µs (VCC falling at 10mV/µs); ensures fast response to supply collapse without false triggering on noise. |
| Threshold Hysteresis | 5% (VHYST = [(VTH+) − (VTH−)] / VTH− × 100%); eliminates output oscillation during slow-rising/falling VCC transitions. |
| Output Type | Active-low open-drain; requires external pull-up, allowing flexible logic-level interfacing up to 6V. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage detector applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV803EB46DBZR | 4.6V threshold, push-pull active-low output, 0.5µA ICC, SOT23-3 package. | No open-drain flexibility; fixed 3.0V–5.5V VCC range; lacks transient immunity specs. | Select when lowest possible ICC is critical and logic-level translation is unnecessary. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V threshold (not 4.6V), adjustable via external resistor, 2.5µA ICC, SOT23-6 package. | Requires external resistor network; larger footprint; not factory-trimmed for 4.6V. | Select only if threshold adjustment is needed and board space permits SOT23-6. |
Compared with TLV803EB46DBZR and TPS3808G33DBVR, the MAX6463UR46+T uniquely combines factory-set 4.6V detection, open-drain output for multi-rail interfacing, 1.0µA ICC, and documented 20µs transient immunity - making it optimal for space-constrained, battery-critical designs requiring precise brown-out response without external components.

FAQ
What is the exact voltage threshold of MAX6463UR46+T?
The MAX6463UR46+T has a factory-set lower trip threshold (VTH−) of 4.600V (typical), with guaranteed range of 4.485V to 4.715V over −40°C to +125°C. The upper threshold (VTH+) is VTH− × 1.05, resulting in 4.735V (typ), providing 5% hysteresis to prevent output oscillation. This specification is confirmed in Table 1a of the MAX6461–MAX6466 datasheet.
Does MAX6463UR46+T require external components to operate?
No, the MAX6463UR46+T requires no external components for basic voltage detection functionality. Its internal bandgap reference, comparator, trimmed resistor network, and 5% hysteresis are fully integrated. However, because it features an open-drain output, an external pull-up resistor is mandatory to establish a valid logic-high state on the OUT pin.
What package type does MAX6463UR46+T use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
The MAX6463UR46+T uses the SOT23-3 package (2.92mm × 1.3mm, 0.95mm height), specified for operation from −40°C to +125°C. It is supplied in lead-free (RoHS-compliant) packaging, indicated by the "+T" suffix per Maxim's ordering convention - replacing "-T" with "+T" denotes lead-free termination.
How does MAX6463UR46+T handle short voltage transients on VCC?
The MAX6463UR46+T is designed to ignore short VCC transients: the datasheet specifies immunity to glitches ≤20µs in duration when the overdrive ((VTH−) − VCC) is 100mV. This characteristic is validated in the "Maximum VCC Transient Duration vs. VTH− Threshold Overdrive" graph (toc04), ensuring reliable operation in noisy power environments like DC/DC converter outputs.
Can MAX6463UR46+T interface with a 1.8V microcontroller while monitoring a 4.2V Li+ battery?
Yes. The MAX6463UR46+T's open-drain OUT pin can be pulled up to 1.8V (or any voltage from 0V to 6V), independent of its VCC supply (which connects to the 4.2V battery). When VCC drops below 4.485V, OUT sinks current, pulling the 1.8V rail low - enabling direct, level-shifted reset signaling to the 1.8V MCU without additional circuitry.
