Product details
Overview
MAX6711SEXS+T from Maxim Integrated is a precision microprocessor supervisory circuit with push-pull active-low RESET output, designed to monitor +2.93V supply rails in embedded digital systems. It provides 140ms minimum reset timeout, 12µA supply current at +25°C, and guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = +1V. Used in portable battery-powered equipment for reliable power-on/power-down reset assertion.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6711SEXS+T datasheet, MAX6711SEXS+T pinout, MAX6711SEXS+T application, or MAX6711SEXS+T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, SC70-4 package mapping, manual reset timing behavior, and validated alternative options for 2.93V-supply supervisory circuits.
Technical Context
The MAX6711SEXS+T implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with 30ppm/°C tempco to detect VCC falling below its 2.93V threshold (±1.5% over -40°C to +125°C). Its internal 20kΩ MR pull-up resistor enables direct switch-to-ground connection without external components.
Reset assertion is synchronized to both VCC decay (brownout) and MR low pulse, with 200ns MR-to-reset delay and 20µs immunity to VCC transients ≥100mV overdrive. The push-pull output drives CMOS/TTL loads directly, sinking 1.2mA at 0.3V VOL while VCC > 1V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.93V ±1.5% (typical), enabling precise brownout detection for +3.0V nominal supplies |
| Reset Timeout | 140ms min after VCC rise or MR release - ensures full µP initialization before release |
| Supply Current | 12µA (typ) at VCC = +3.3V, TA = -40°C to +85°C - supports ultra-low-power portable designs |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2V to 5.5V (over -40°C to +105°C) - allows operation during deep brownout recovery |
| RESET Output Type | Active-low push-pull - eliminates need for external pull-up and interfaces directly with µP reset pins |
| MR Input Threshold | VIL = 0.3×VCC, VIH = 0.7×VCC - compatible with standard CMOS/TTL logic families |
| Reset Validity Limit | Guaranteed down to VCC = +1V - maintains defined logic state through severe undervoltage conditions |
Pinout & Package
MAX6711SEXS+T is housed in a 4-pin SC70 package (outline X4-1, land pattern 90-0187), measuring 1.25mm × 0.85mm × 0.55mm. This RoHS-compliant, lead-free surface-mount package supports high-density PCB layouts and reflow soldering.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 GND | Ground reference | Return path for all internal circuitry; must be connected to system ground plane for stable reset threshold |
| 2 RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output | Drives low during reset assertion; sinks 1.2mA at 0.3V; no external pull-up required |
| 3 MR | Manual reset input (active-low) | Internal 20kΩ pull-up enables momentary switch-to-ground interface; 1µs minimum pulse width |
| 4 VCC | Supply voltage input | Accepts +1.2V to +5.5V; powers internal comparator and output stage; bypass capacitor recommended |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external components required | Integrated 20kΩ MR pull-up and precision voltage reference eliminate discrete resistors and capacitors |
| 140ms minimum reset timeout | Ensures µP completes internal power-on self-test and clock stabilization before release |
| 2.93V reset threshold | Optimized for +3.0V systems - asserts reset before critical logic voltage margin is violated |
| 12µA supply current | Enables multi-year battery life in coin-cell–powered instrumentation and IoT edge sensors |
| VCC transient immunity | Rejects 20µs negative glitches ≥100mV below threshold - prevents spurious resets in noisy environments |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6711TES+T | 3.08V reset threshold (vs. 2.93V); identical SC70-4 package and push-pull output | Targeted at +3.3V systems with tighter 3.08V brownout margin; not suitable for 3.0V nominal rails requiring earlier assertion | Select when system VCC nominal is +3.3V and brownout must occur closer to 3.08V rather than 2.93V |
| TPS3123E18DBVR | 1.8V fixed threshold; SOT-23-5 package; 1.2ms reset timeout; 1.5µA supply current | Designed for ultra-low-voltage microcontrollers (e.g., MSP430FRxx); incompatible pinout and shorter timeout | Choose only for sub-2.0V supply monitoring; requires PCB redesign due to 5-pin SOT-23 and different pin assignment |
Compared with MAX6711SEXS+T, MAX6711TES+T offers higher threshold for +3.3V systems but lacks compatibility for 3.0V rails, while TPS3123E18DBVR targets lower voltages with radically different timing and packaging - neither is pin-compatible, making MAX6711SEXS+T the optimal choice for 2.93V-supervised 3.0V embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6711SEXS+T and how is it specified over temperature?
The MAX6711SEXS+T has a nominal reset threshold of 2.93V, with ±1.5% tolerance over -40°C to +85°C and ±2.5% over -40°C to +105°C. At +25°C, the threshold is guaranteed between 2.89V and 2.96V. The device exhibits 30ppm/°C tempco, resulting in ≤±6mV drift across the full -40°C to +125°C range - critical for consistent brownout response in wide-temperature deployments.
Does MAX6711SEXS+T require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
No, MAX6711SEXS+T does not require an external pull-up resistor because it features a push-pull RESET output. The internal driver actively pulls the RESET pin low during assertion and high during deassertion, eliminating dependency on external components. This distinguishes it from the open-drain MAX6713 variants and simplifies design for systems using active-low reset inputs.
How long does the RESET signal remain asserted after VCC rises above the threshold in MAX6711SEXS+T?
In MAX6711SEXS+T, the RESET signal remains asserted for a minimum of 140ms after VCC rises above the 2.93V threshold. This timeout is guaranteed over -40°C to +85°C and extends up to 460ms at elevated temperatures (+85°C to +125°C). The fixed delay ensures µPs complete internal initialization, PLL locking, and memory self-test before release.
Can MAX6711SEXS+T operate with supply voltages below 2.93V, and what happens to RESET output below 1V?
Yes, MAX6711SEXS+T operates with VCC as low as 1.2V over -40°C to +105°C and down to 1.0V at 0°C to +70°C. Below VCC = +1V, the RESET output ceases sinking current and becomes high-impedance. For applications requiring defined logic state down to 0V, a 100kΩ pull-down resistor on RESET is recommended to prevent floating inputs on connected µP reset pins.
What is the function of the MR pin on MAX6711SEXS+T, and does it require external circuitry?
The MR pin on MAX6711SEXS+T is an active-low manual reset input with an internal 20kΩ pull-up resistor. It requires no external components: connecting a normally open switch from MR to GND generates a valid reset pulse. The input accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels and tolerates 100ns glitches. MR assertion holds RESET low immediately, and RESET remains active for ≥140ms after MR returns high - enabling robust front-panel or test-point reset capability.
