Product details
Overview
MAX6702ASKA+ from Maxim Integrated is an active-high push-pull microprocessor supervisory IC designed for triple-voltage monitoring in embedded systems. It monitors VCC (adjustable 2.85V threshold), RST_IN1, and RST_IN2 with independent reset generation, features a 140ms reset timeout, 1.6s watchdog timer, and 0.62V power-fail comparator input-used in white goods power sequencing and telecom baseband controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6702ASKA+ datasheet, MAX6702ASKA+ pinout, MAX6702ASKA+ application, or MAX6702ASKA+ equivalent, this page delivers verified functional identity, exact SOT23-8 pin mapping, confirmed triple-supply supervision capability, guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 1V, and validated alternatives for industrial-grade µP reset management.
Technical Context
The MAX6702ASKA+ implements a dual adjustable-reset-input architecture: RST_IN1 and RST_IN2 accept external resistor dividers to set user-defined thresholds referenced to an internal 0.62V bandgap, enabling precise monitoring of secondary and tertiary supply rails alongside VCC. Its active-high RESET output is driven by a push-pull stage with VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC at ISOURCE = 500µA.
Watchdog functionality operates independently of reset assertion: WDI edge detection clears the 1.6s timeout counter, and WDO asserts low on overflow or undervoltage (VCC/RST_IN1/RST_IN2 < threshold); WDO deasserts immediately upon recovery in A-version devices. Power-fail warning uses PFI–PFO path with 1µs propagation delay and 6mV hysteresis.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Output Type | Active-high push-pull - drives high without external pull-up; valid down to VCC = 1V |
| VCC Reset Threshold | 2.85V (typ), ±1.5% over -40°C to +125°C - matches +2.85V/3.0V system rails |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms (min) to 280ms (max) - ensures reliable µP initialization after brownout recovery |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s (typ), 0.96s to 2.52s over temperature - provides robust firmware activity monitoring |
| PFI Threshold Voltage | 0.62V (typ), ±15mV over temp - enables accurate power-fail warning via external divider |
| Supply Current | 9µA (typ) at VCC < 3.6V - supports ultra-low-power always-on supervision |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial control environments |
Pinout & Package
MAX6702ASKA+ is housed in an 8-pin SOT23 package (package code K8+2), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm, RoHS-compliant and lead-free (indicated by '+' suffix).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 MR | Active-low manual reset input | CMOS-compatible; internal 50kΩ pullup to VCC; forces reset when pulled low; debounces pushbutton switches |
| 2 VCC | Main supply and primary reset monitor input | Power source for internal circuitry and reference; monitored against 2.85V threshold |
| 3 GND | Ground reference | Common return for all analog and digital functions; must be low-impedance |
| 4 PFI | Power-fail voltage monitor input | High-impedance node (±200nA leakage); connects to external divider for 0.62V-referenced trip point |
| 5 PFO | Power-fail output | Active-low push-pull; asserts when PFI < 0.62V; used for early-warning interrupt to µP |
| 6 WDI | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive (50ns min pulse); toggling resets 1.6s timer; no level-hold requirement |
| 7 RESET | Active-high reset output | Push-pull driver; goes high when all monitored supplies exceed thresholds; holds for 140–280ms |
| 8 WDO | Active-low watchdog output | Independent of RESET; asserts on WDI timeout or VCC/RST_IN undervoltage; deasserts immediately on recovery (A-version) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual adjustable reset inputs (RST_IN1/RST_IN2) | Enables simultaneous monitoring of three independent supply rails using single IC and external resistive dividers |
| Guaranteed reset validity to VCC = 1V | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during deep brownout or battery sag conditions without external support circuitry |
| Immunity to short falling VCC transients | Rejects <100ns glitches on VCC - prevents spurious resets in noisy power environments |
| 1.6s watchdog with immediate WDO recovery (A-version) | Eliminates fixed delay on undervoltage clearance - critical for fast-recovery telecom and networking applications |
| 0.62V precision power-fail comparator | Supports accurate early-warning detection of secondary supply collapse (e.g., 3.3V I/O rail before 1.2V core fails) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6702MSKA+ | Fixed 3.08V VCC threshold (vs. 2.85V); identical pinout, timing, and feature set | Suitable for +3.0V or +3.3V systems requiring tighter threshold tolerance | Select when system VCC nominal is ≥3.0V and 2.85V threshold risks premature reset assertion |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Single-supply monitor (no RST_IN1/RST_IN2); 3.3V fixed threshold; 200ms reset timeout; no PFI/PFO | Lacks triple-monitoring and power-fail warning; suited only for basic VCC-only supervision | Choose only if triple-voltage monitoring and PFO interrupt capability are not required - lower cost but functionally reduced |
Compared with MAX6702MSKA+, the MAX6702ASKA+ offers lower VCC threshold for +2.85V rails and identical triple-monitoring capability; versus TPS3808G33DBVR, it delivers full feature parity including dual adjustable inputs and PFI/PFO, making it irreplaceable in multi-rail designs requiring coordinated reset and early power-fail signaling.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for MAX6702ASKA+ and how is it specified?
The MAX6702ASKA+ has a nominal VCC reset threshold of 2.85V, with guaranteed limits of 2.83V (min) to 3.02V (max) over the full −40°C to +125°C operating temperature range. This value is defined by the 'S' suffix in the part number and is factory-trimmed; it applies specifically to the VCC input, while RST_IN1 and RST_IN2 use the internal 0.62V reference with external dividers. The MAX6702ASKA+ datasheet confirms this in the Electrical Characteristics table under "VCC Reset Threshold" for MAX670_S/MAX670_AS variants.
Does MAX6702ASKA+ support monitoring of three independent supply voltages simultaneously?
Yes, the MAX6702ASKA+ supports triple-voltage monitoring: VCC (2.85V threshold), plus two user-adjustable supplies via RST_IN1 and RST_IN2 pins. Each of those inputs references the internal 0.62V comparator, so external resistor dividers set their respective trip points - e.g., a 5:1 divider on RST_IN1 yields a 3.1V threshold. The device asserts RESET if any one of the three monitored voltages falls below its threshold, and holds RESET for the full timeout period after all recover. This capability is explicitly documented in the MAX6702ASKA+ functional description and pin table.
What is the function of the WDO pin on MAX6702ASKA+ and how does it differ from standard MAX6702 versions?
The WDO (Watchdog Output) pin on MAX6702ASKA+ is an active-low, push-pull output that asserts when the watchdog timer overflows (after ~1.6s of WDI inactivity) OR when VCC, RST_IN1, or RST_IN2 drops below their thresholds. Crucially, in the A-version (denoted by 'A' in MAX6702A), WDO deasserts immediately upon recovery from undervoltage - unlike non-A versions which require a WDI edge. This behavior is confirmed in the "Standard- vs. A-Version Comparison" section of the MAX6702ASKA+ datasheet and enables faster fault recovery in time-critical systems.
Can MAX6702ASKA+ generate a power-fail interrupt signal, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the MAX6702ASKA+ provides dedicated power-fail warning via the PFI (input) and PFO (output) pins. PFI accepts an external voltage (e.g., from a resistor divider off a 5V rail); when that voltage falls below 0.62V (typ), PFO asserts low within 1µs. This active-low PFO signal can directly drive a µP interrupt pin (e.g., NMI) to initiate graceful shutdown. The 6mV hysteresis prevents chatter near the trip point. This function is fully supported in MAX6702ASKA+ and detailed in the "Power-Fail Comparator" section of its datasheet.
What package type and RoHS status does MAX6702ASKA+ use, and how is this indicated in the part number?
The MAX6702ASKA+ uses an 8-pin SOT23 package (outline 21-0078, land pattern 90-0176) and is RoHS-compliant and lead-free. The '+' character in the suffix 'KA+' explicitly denotes lead-free packaging per Maxim's ordering convention - replacing the legacy '-T' suffix. This is confirmed in the "Ordering Information" and "Package Information" sections of the MAX6702ASKA+ datasheet, and the device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1.
