Product details
Overview
The MAX6709IUB+T from Maxim Integrated is a quad voltage monitor IC for multivoltage systems, featuring four independent active-low open-drain outputs with 10µA internal pullup to VCC, factory-trimmed thresholds for 3.3V and 2.5V nominal supplies (±10% tolerance), and adjustable inputs supporting down-to-0.62V threshold detection. It consumes only 35µA typical supply current and operates from 2.0V to 5.5V, targeting power-good supervision in desktop computers and data storage equipment.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6709IUB+T datasheet, MAX6709IUB+T pinout, MAX6709IUB+T application, or MAX6709IUB+T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, µMAX package layout, real-world use scenarios in multivoltage monitoring, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and application differences.
Technical Context
The MAX6709IUB+T implements four precision comparators with an internal 0.62V bandgap reference and factory-laser-trimmed resistor-divider networks for fixed 3.3V and 2.5V monitoring. Two inputs are adjustable (IN1 and IN4), accepting external resistor dividers to scale higher voltages down to the 0.62V comparator threshold.
Hysteresis is built-in at 0.3% of threshold voltage, eliminating need for external feedback resistors. An undervoltage lockout circuit forces all PWRGD_ outputs low when VCC drops below 2.0V, and all outputs remain functional down to VCC = 1V over temperature (-40°C to +85°C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.0V to 5.5V - supports direct connection to monitored rails including 3.3V and 2.5V supplies without level-shifting. |
| Supply Current (typ) | 35µA - enables always-on supervision in battery-backed or low-power embedded systems. |
| Threshold Accuracy | ±2.0% - ensures reliable trip points across -40°C to +85°C for stable power-good assertion timing. |
| Adjustable Threshold | 0.62V (±2.0%) - serves as reference for external resistor dividers to monitor any voltage ≥0.62V. |
| Output Type | Four independent open-drain PWRGD_ outputs with 10µA internal pullup - allows wire-ORing into single system power-good signal. |
| Input Hysteresis | 0.3% of VTH - prevents chatter during slow-rising/falling supply transitions without external components. |

Pinout & Package
Package: 10-pin µMAX (3.0mm × 3.0mm, 0.6mm height, 0.5mm pitch), lead-free, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | IN1 | Adjustable input - connects to external resistor divider for custom voltage monitoring (e.g., >0.62V). |
| 2 | IN2 | Fixed 3.3V monitor input - factory-trimmed for ±10% tolerance (trip at 2.97V). |
| 3 | IN3 | Fixed 2.5V monitor input - factory-trimmed for ±10% tolerance (trip at 2.25V). |
| 4 | IN4 | Adjustable input - identical function to IN1; supports second custom voltage threshold. |
| 5 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - common return for all comparators and outputs. |
| 6 | PWRGD4 | Active-low open-drain output - asserts low when IN4 falls below its threshold; 10µA internal pullup to VCC. |
| 7 | PWRGD3 | Active-low open-drain output - asserts low when IN3 falls below 2.25V; 10µA internal pullup to VCC. |
| 8 | PWRGD2 | Active-low open-drain output - asserts low when IN2 falls below 2.97V; 10µA internal pullup to VCC. |
| 9 | PWRGD1 | Active-low open-drain output - asserts low when IN1 falls below its adjusted threshold; 10µA internal pullup to VCC. |
| 10 | VCC | Power-supply input - powers internal circuitry and sources internal pullups; UVLO activates below 2.0V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Quad independent monitoring | Four separate comparator channels enable simultaneous supervision of mixed-voltage rails (e.g., 3.3V, 2.5V, and two custom voltages) with no shared timing or dependency. |
| Factory-trimmed fixed thresholds | IN2 and IN3 are preconfigured for 3.3V and 2.5V nominal supplies at ±10% tolerance - eliminates calibration effort and external resistor networks for those rails. |
| Adjustable inputs (IN1, IN4) | Each accepts external resistor dividers to monitor any voltage ≥0.62V - supports flexible adaptation to nonstandard supply levels without redesign. |
| Low quiescent current | 35µA typical ICC enables integration into always-on supervisory paths without impacting system standby budget. |
| Integrated hysteresis | 0.3% of threshold voltage is built-in - prevents false triggering on noisy or slowly ramping supplies without external components. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad voltage monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6710IUB+T | Same pinout and package; differs only in supply tolerance - supports ±5% instead of ±10% for IN2/IN3 (3.3V/2.5V). | Used where tighter supply regulation is enforced (e.g., telecom line cards); requires validation of margin against actual rail ripple. | Select MAX6710IUB+T if system design guarantees ≤5% variation on 3.3V/2.5V rails and tighter trip point control is needed. |
| TPS3307-33DBVR | Triple supervisor (not quad); fixed 3.3V, 2.5V, and 1.25V thresholds; no adjustable inputs; 1.6µA IQ. | Lacks fourth channel and adjustability - suitable only when exactly three rails must be monitored and no custom voltages exist. | Choose TPS3307-33DBVR only for cost-sensitive, triple-rail designs where fourth rail supervision is handled separately. |
Compared with MAX6710IUB+T, the MAX6709IUB+T provides wider tolerance margins ideal for less-regulated consumer-grade supplies; versus TPS3307-33DBVR, it adds critical fourth-channel flexibility and adjustable inputs essential for heterogeneous multivoltage systems.

FAQ
What is the exact threshold voltage for IN2 and IN3 on the MAX6709IUB+T?
The MAX6709IUB+T has factory-trimmed thresholds: IN2 monitors 3.3V nominal at -10% tolerance (2.97V trip point), and IN3 monitors 2.5V nominal at -10% tolerance (2.25V trip point). These values are guaranteed across -40°C to +85°C with ±2.0% accuracy per the datasheet Electrical Characteristics table.
Can the MAX6709IUB+T monitor a 1.2V supply?
Yes - the MAX6709IUB+T can monitor a 1.2V supply using either IN1 or IN4. Connect a resistor divider (e.g., R1 = 100kΩ, R2 = 100kΩ) between the 1.2V rail and GND, feeding the junction to the adjustable input. The internal 0.62V reference yields VTH = 0.62V × (R1 + R2)/R2 = 1.24V, closely matching the target.
Does the MAX6709IUB+T require external pull-up resistors on its PWRGD outputs?
No - the MAX6709IUB+T integrates 10µA internal pullup current sources to VCC on all four PWRGD_ outputs. External pullups are optional and only needed when interfacing with logic operating at voltages other than VCC (e.g., 1.8V I/O driving a 3.3V PWRGD line).
What is the minimum VCC voltage at which the MAX6709IUB+T remains functional?
The MAX6709IUB+T operates down to VCC = 2.0V per specification. Below that, its undervoltage lockout circuit forces all PWRGD_ outputs low. However, the device continues to function - and outputs remain valid - down to VCC = 1.0V, as confirmed in Absolute Maximum Ratings and Typical Operating Characteristics.
How does hysteresis work on the MAX6709IUB+T, and is it configurable?
Hysteresis on the MAX6709IUB+T is fixed at 0.3% of the threshold voltage (e.g., 6.75mV for a 2.25V trip point) and is fully integrated - no external components or configuration is required. This built-in hysteresis prevents oscillation during slow supply ramps and eliminates the need for external positive-feedback networks.
