Product details
Overview
MAX6715AUTZWD3+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual-supply ultra-low-voltage microprocessor supervisory circuit in SOT23-6 package, monitoring VCC1 (1.8V–5.0V) and VCC2 (0.9V–3.3V) with factory-trimmed reset thresholds, 140ms minimum reset timeout, and push-pull active-low RST output. It ensures reliable system reset during brownout conditions in multivoltage embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6715AUTZWD3+T datasheet, MAX6715AUTZWD3+T pinout, MAX6715AUTZWD3+T application, or MAX6715AUTZWD3+T equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-rail voltage monitoring capability, guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 0.8V, watchdog disable support via unconnected WDI, and compatibility with industrial temperature range (−40°C to +125°C) designs.
Technical Context
The MAX6715AUTZWD3+T integrates two independent voltage comparators for primary (VCC1) and secondary (VCC2) supply rails, each with factory-trimmed thresholds - VTH1 = 4.625V (typ) and VTH2 = 3.075V (typ) - and 0.5% hysteresis. Its reset logic asserts RST low when either supply falls below threshold and holds for a fixed 140ms timeout after recovery.
This device features a push-pull RST output referenced to VCC1, manual-reset input (MR) with internal 50kΩ pullup, and watchdog disable functionality (WDI left unconnected). It operates without external components for basic supervision, while supporting optional RSTIN/PFI inputs for triple-voltage or power-fail monitoring in extended configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | VCC1 = 0.8V to 5.5V; VCC2 = 0.8V to 5.5V - enables operation across wide battery and regulated rail voltages including sub-1V core supplies. |
| Reset Thresholds | VTH1 = 4.625V (typ), VTH2 = 3.075V (typ) - factory-trimmed for precise detection of 5V and 3.3V rail failures without calibration. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms (min) - ensures sufficient hold time for processor initialization and peripheral stabilization after power recovery. |
| Supply Current | 14µA (typ) at 3.6V - ultra-low quiescent current extends battery life in portable equipment. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial control, and telecom infrastructure applications. |
| Reset Output Type | Push-pull active-low RST - eliminates need for external pullup resistor and provides robust drive into heavy capacitive loads. |
| Reset Validity Limit | Guaranteed valid down to VCC1 or VCC2 = 0.8V - ensures deterministic reset assertion even during deep brownout conditions. |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-6 package (package code U6+1), 1.6mm × 2.9mm footprint, 0.95mm height, thermal resistance θJA = 115°C/W on multilayer board.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RST/RST1 | Active-low reset output | Push-pull driver referenced to VCC1; asserts low on VCC1/VCC2 undervoltage, MR low, or watchdog timeout; remains low for 140ms after recovery. |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal comparators, timers, and output drivers; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 3 - MR | Manual-reset input | Active-low CMOS-compatible input with internal 50kΩ pullup to VCC1; pulse ≥1µs forces reset; immune to <100ns glitches. |
| 4 - VCC2 | Secondary supply input | Powers internal circuitry when VCC2 > VCC1; input to VCC2 comparator with 3.075V (typ) threshold; supports 0.9V–3.3V monitoring range. |
| 5 - VCC1 | Primary supply input | Main power source and reference for RST output; input to VCC1 comparator with 4.625V (typ) threshold; powers internal logic when VCC1 > VCC2. |
| 6 - WDI | Watchdog input | Unconnected state disables watchdog; rising/falling edge resets 1.12s (min) normal timeout; long startup period (35s min) accommodates boot sequences. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage monitoring | Simultaneous supervision of VCC1 (e.g., 5V I/O rail) and VCC2 (e.g., 3.3V core rail) with separate thresholds and hysteresis - eliminates need for two discrete supervisors. |
| 140ms fixed reset timeout | Guaranteed minimum duration ensures reliable processor reset hold time across temperature and voltage variations - no external RC timing components required. |
| Push-pull RST output | Drives high/low actively without external pullup - simplifies PCB layout, improves noise immunity, and supports direct interface to bidirectional μP reset pins via series resistor. |
| Watchdog disable by open-circuit WDI | Internal 200nA current source detects floating WDI - allows full watchdog functionality or complete disable with zero component count change. |
| 0.8V minimum operating voltage | Valid reset assertion and output logic guaranteed even as VCC1 or VCC2 drops to 0.8V - critical for fail-safe behavior in deep brownout scenarios. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-supply supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6716AUTZWD3+T | Identical pinout and package, but open-drain RST output instead of push-pull - requires external pullup resistor. | Suitable where level-shifting or wired-OR reset bus is needed; less suitable for direct μP reset pin drive without series resistor. | Select MAX6716AUTZWD3+T only if open-drain topology is explicitly required for system-level reset arbitration. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Single-supply supervisor (monitors only VCC); 3.3V fixed threshold; 200ms timeout; SOT23-6 package. | Lacks VCC2 monitoring capability - cannot replace dual-rail supervision without adding second IC or redesigning power architecture. | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR only for cost-sensitive single-rail applications where secondary supply monitoring is unnecessary. |
Compared with MAX6715AUTZWD3+T, MAX6716AUTZWD3+T offers identical supervision functionality but demands external pullup for RST, while TPS3808G33DBVR reduces BOM count only in single-rail systems - neither provides drop-in replacement for dual-supply monitoring with push-pull drive.

FAQ
What is the reset timeout period of the MAX6715AUTZWD3+T?
The MAX6715AUTZWD3+T has a fixed minimum reset timeout period of 140ms. This duration is guaranteed over the full operating temperature range (−40°C to +125°C) and supply voltage range (VCC1/VCC2 ≥ 0.8V). The timeout begins when the monitored supply recovers above its threshold and ends with deassertion of the push-pull RST output. No external components are required to set this timing.
Does the MAX6715AUTZWD3+T support watchdog functionality?
The MAX6715AUTZWD3+T includes a watchdog input (WDI) pin, but it is disabled by default when left unconnected. To enable watchdog monitoring, connect WDI to a microprocessor I/O pin that toggles within 1.12s (min) during normal operation. The device features a 35s (min) startup window after reset, allowing time for system boot before watchdog enforcement begins.
Can the MAX6715AUTZWD3+T monitor a third voltage rail?
No - the MAX6715AUTZWD3+T is configured exclusively for dual-rail monitoring (VCC1 and VCC2). It does not include the RSTIN or PFI pins required for auxiliary voltage supervision. For triple-voltage monitoring, select variants such as MAX6719AUTZWD3+T (with RSTIN) or MAX6728AUTZWD3+T (with PFI), which share the same SOT23-6 package and timeout suffix but add dedicated input terminals.
What is the function of the MR pin on the MAX6715AUTZWD3+T?
The MR (manual-reset) pin on the MAX6715AUTZWD3+T is an active-low input with internal 50kΩ pullup to VCC1. Pulling MR low for ≥1µs forces immediate assertion of the RST output for the full 140ms timeout period, regardless of VCC1/VCC2 status. This enables hardware-initiated resets via pushbutton switches or system-level control signals without software involvement.
Is the MAX6715AUTZWD3+T compatible with AEC-Q100 automotive qualification?
The MAX6715AUTZWD3+T itself is not AEC-Q100 qualified; however, the closely related MAX6719AUTTWD1/V+T variant in the same family is explicitly AEC-Q100 Grade 2 qualified (−40°C to +105°C). For automotive applications requiring formal qualification, engineers should specify the MAX6719AUTTWD1/V+T or consult Maxim's automotive-grade product matrix rather than relying on MAX6715AUTZWD3+T.
