Product details
Overview
The MAX6468XS26D3+ from Maxim Integrated is a push-pull output microprocessor supervisory reset circuit in SC70-4 package, monitoring +2.625V supply with ±1.5% threshold accuracy at +25°C, 150ms minimum reset timeout, and guaranteed operation down to VCC = +1V. It provides edge-triggered manual reset with 150ms debounce and is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6468XS26D3+ datasheet, MAX6468XS26D3+ pinout, MAX6468XS26D3+ application, or MAX6468XS26D3+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its factory-trimmed 2.625V reset threshold, push-pull active-low RESET output, -40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range, and immunity to short voltage transients.
Technical Context
The MAX6468XS26D3+ implements a precision bandgap-based voltage monitor with internal hysteresis and a digital one-shot timer for both power-fail and manual reset events. Its reset assertion logic combines analog threshold detection with edge-sensitive digital timing control to ensure deterministic reset pulse width regardless of MR input duration.
It features an internal 1.5kΩ pullup resistor on MR, supports TTL/CMOS-level inputs, and guarantees valid RESET output down to VCC = +1V. The push-pull output drives high (0.8×VCC) and low (≤0.3V at 1.2mA sink) without requiring external pullup components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | +2.625V (factory-trimmed, ±1.5% at +25°C; ±3% over -40°C to +125°C) |
| Reset Timeout Period | 150ms min (D3 suffix), fixed one-shot duration independent of VCC rise time |
| Supply Voltage Range | +1.0V to +5.5V - enables use with 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5.0V systems |
| Supply Current | 3µA at VCC = +1.8V - ultra-low quiescent current for battery-powered equipment |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - AEC-Q100 qualified for under-hood automotive environments |
| Output Type | Active-low push-pull - eliminates need for external pullup resistor; sinks 1.2mA at VCC ≥ +2.5V |
| MR Input Behavior | Edge-triggered with 150ms rising-edge debounce - rejects switch bounce and ensures single reset per press |
Pinout & Package
MAX6468XS26D3+ is housed in a 4-pin SC70-4 package (2.0mm × 2.1mm, 0.65mm pitch), optimized for space-constrained portable and automotive electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for internal circuitry and RESET output; requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 2 RESET | Active-low reset output | Push-pull driver asserts low during VCC brownout or MR falling edge; holds low for full 150ms timeout even if MR remains low |
| 3 MR | Manual reset input | Edge-triggered input with internal 1.5kΩ pullup; falling edge initiates one-shot reset; ignores subsequent edges within 150ms debounce window |
| 4 VCC | Power and monitored supply | Supplies device and serves as monitored rail; bypass with 0.1µF capacitor to GND for noise immunity and transient rejection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision factory-set threshold | +2.625V threshold trimmed at wafer level - eliminates calibration and external resistors in +2.5V/2.6V supply monitoring |
| Edge-triggered manual reset | One-shot pulsed RESET output on MR falling edge - prevents latch-up or repeated resets from sustained button press |
| Glitch-immune voltage monitoring | Rejects transients ≤100ns at 100mV overdrive - avoids false resets during digital switching noise or ESD events |
| Low-voltage operation | Valid RESET output down to VCC = +1V - ensures reliable reset assertion during deep brownout conditions before system collapse |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 0 compliant (-40°C to +125°C) - validated for engine control, ADAS, and infotainment modules |
Applications
| Automotive Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Industrial PLC I/O Module |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Monitors 2.5V microcontroller supply in engine management system exposed to wide temperature swings and load dump transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervisory reset circuit asserting active-low RESET to MCU during brownout or manual service reset. Use Value: Factory-trimmed +2.625V threshold matches nominal 2.5V rail tolerance; 150ms timeout satisfies ISO 16750-2 cold-crank reset requirements. |
Use Scenario: Ensures deterministic restart of programmable logic controller after power interruption or field maintenance. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: System-level reset supervisor coordinating power sequencing and firmware recovery across multiple I/O ASICs. Use Value: Push-pull output drives RESET bus directly without pullup; -40°C to +125°C rating supports uncooled industrial enclosures. |
| Medical Infusion Pump Controller | DSL Modem Power Management |
Use Scenario: Guarantees safe shutdown and restart of safety-critical pump motor controller during battery voltage sag. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fail-safe reset generator interfacing with ARM Cortex-M4 MCU and isolated power rails. Use Value: 3µA supply current extends battery life; RESET validity to VCC = +1V prevents premature release during undervoltage recovery. |
Use Scenario: Manages reset timing for DSL PHY and baseband processor during AC power cycling and line surge events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-role supervisor handling both VCC brownout and front-panel reset button input. Use Value: Edge-triggered MR with 150ms debounce eliminates false triggers from EMI on long front-panel cables; SC70 package saves board area. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6384US26D3+ | Same SC70-4 package, identical +2.625V threshold and D3 timeout, but open-drain output (requires external pullup) | Suitable where system already uses pullup on shared RESET bus; not drop-in for push-pull designs | Select MAX6384US26D3+ only if open-drain compatibility is required and pullup resistor is available |
| TLV809E26DBZR | TI part in SOT-23-3; +2.63V threshold, 140ms timeout, 1.8–6V VCC range; no MR input | Lacks manual reset functionality; intended for simple power-on reset only | Choose TLV809E26DBZR only when manual reset is unnecessary and board layout allows SOT-23-3 footprint |
Compared with MAX6468XS26D3+, MAX6384US26D3+ offers identical threshold and timing but requires external pullup, while TLV809E26DBZR omits MR entirely - making MAX6468XS26D3+ the only option supporting both precise 2.625V monitoring and robust edge-triggered manual reset in SC70.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6468XS26D3+?
The MAX6468XS26D3+ has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of +2.625V, with ±1.5% accuracy at +25°C and ±3% over the full -40°C to +125°C operating range. This value is confirmed in the Reset Threshold table of the datasheet and corresponds to the "26" suffix in the part number.
Does the MAX6468XS26D3+ require an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin?
No, the MAX6468XS26D3+ features a push-pull RESET output and does not require an external pullup resistor. Unlike the open-drain MAX6467 variant, the MAX6468XS26D3+ actively drives both high (≥0.8×VCC) and low (≤0.3V at 1.2mA sink) states, simplifying system design and reducing BOM count.
What is the function of the MR pin on the MAX6468XS26D3+?
The MR pin on the MAX6468XS26D3+ is an edge-triggered manual reset input. A falling edge initiates a fixed 150ms one-shot RESET pulse, and the device includes 150ms rising-edge debounce to reject switch bounce. An internal 1.5kΩ pullup resistor allows MR to be left floating if unused.
Is the MAX6468XS26D3+ qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the MAX6468XS26D3+ is AEC-Q100 qualified and specified for operation from -40°C to +125°C. The "+" suffix indicates RoHS-compliant lead-free packaging, and the device meets automotive reliability and stress testing requirements for under-hood and cabin electronics.
How does the MAX6468XS26D3+ handle short voltage transients on VCC?
The MAX6468XS26D3+ is immune to short-duration VCC transients: it rejects glitches ≤100ns wide at 100mV overdrive, as shown in the Typical Operating Characteristics graph "Maximum Transient Duration vs. Reset Threshold Overdrive." A 0.1µF bypass capacitor further enhances immunity.
