Product details
Overview
MAX6718UKVDD3 from Maxim Integrated is a dual-voltage microprocessor supervisory IC in 5-pin SOT23 package, monitoring VCC1 (primary supply) and VCC2 (secondary supply) with factory-trimmed reset thresholds of 3.075V (VTH1) and 1.665V (VTH2), 210ms minimum reset timeout, push-pull active-low RST output, and guaranteed reset validity down to VCC1 or VCC2 = 0.8V - used in portable battery-powered systems requiring reliable power-up sequencing and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6718UKVDD3 datasheet, MAX6718UKVDD3 pinout, MAX6718UKVDD3 application, or MAX6718UKVDD3 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-supply threshold accuracy, low 14µA typical supply current at 3.6V, immunity to sub-100ns VCC transients, push-pull RST drive capability referenced to VCC1, and operation across -40°C to +125°C industrial temperature range.
Technical Context
The MAX6718UKVDD3 integrates two independent voltage comparators with hysteresis (0.5% typical) and a precision internal reference (626.5mV for auxiliary monitoring), enabling simultaneous supervision of primary (1.8–5.0V) and secondary (0.9–3.3V) rails. Its reset logic asserts RST low when either VCC1 falls below 3.075V or VCC2 drops below 1.665V, holding reset for ≥210ms after both supplies recover.
It features a push-pull RST output referenced to VCC1 with VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC1 (at ISOURCE = 200µA) and VOL ≤ 0.4V (at ISINK = 3.2mA), eliminating need for external pullup. The device guarantees valid reset state even when VCC1 or VCC2 decays to 0.8V, supporting robust low-voltage system shutdown sequences.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Reset Threshold | 3.075V (factory-trimmed, ±1.5% over temp) - sets precise brownout detection point for main system rail |
| VCC2 Reset Threshold | 1.665V (factory-trimmed, ±1.5% over temp) - enables reliable core voltage monitoring in low-power SoC designs |
| Reset Timeout Period | 210ms (minimum) - ensures µP completes full initialization before release from reset |
| Supply Current | 14µA (typical at 3.6V) - minimizes quiescent drain in always-on battery backup circuits |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - supports automotive under-hood and industrial control applications |
| Reset Output Type | Push-pull active-low RST - drives directly into µP reset pin without external pullup resistor |
| VCC Validity Guarantee | Reset logic remains valid down to VCC1 or VCC2 = 0.8V - enables deterministic behavior during deep brownout |
Pinout & Package
MAX6718UKVDD3 is housed in a 5-pin SOT23 package (2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm), surface-mount, RoHS-compliant, with thermal pad not electrically connected.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RST | Active-low reset output | Push-pull driver referenced to VCC1; asserts low on fault and holds for 210ms post-recovery |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return for all internal comparators, reference, and output stage |
| 3 - MR | Active-low manual-reset input | Internal 50kΩ pullup to VCC1; forces reset when pulled low, with 200ns delay and 1µs minimum pulse width |
| 4 - VCC2 | Secondary supply input | Powers internal circuitry when VCC2 > VCC1; monitored for 1.665V threshold violation |
| 5 - VCC1 | Primary supply input | Main power source and reference for RST output; monitored for 3.075V threshold violation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-voltage supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6718UKTDD3 | Same dual-threshold (3.075V/1.665V) and 210ms timeout, but open-drain RST output requiring external pullup | Suitable where µP reset pin tolerates open-drain drive or where level-shifting is needed | Select MAX6718UKTDD3 only if system requires configurable reset polarity or interfacing to mixed-voltage logic |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Single-supply supervisor (3.3V threshold only), 200ms timeout, 1.6µA IQ, SOT23-5 package | Lacks VCC2 monitoring - cannot replace dual-rail supervision without adding second IC | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR only for cost-sensitive single-rail applications where secondary rail monitoring is omitted |
Compared with MAX6718UKVDD3, MAX6718UKTDD3 requires an external pullup for RST but offers identical thresholds and timing; TPS3808G33DBVR reduces quiescent current significantly but sacrifices dual-rail capability - making it unsuitable as direct functional replacement in multi-rail systems.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for VCC1 and VCC2 on the MAX6718UKVDD3?
The MAX6718UKVDD3 has factory-trimmed reset thresholds of 3.075V (VTH1) for VCC1 and 1.665V (VTH2) for VCC2, with ±1.5% tolerance over -40°C to +125°C. These values are encoded in the "VDD" suffix per Maxim's Reset Voltage Threshold Suffix Guide and confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the official datasheet.
Does the MAX6718UKVDD3 support manual reset functionality?
Yes, the MAX6718UKVDD3 includes an active-low manual-reset input (MR) on Pin 3, featuring an internal 50kΩ pullup to VCC1. Pulling MR low forces reset assertion for the full 210ms timeout period, with 200ns propagation delay and 1µs minimum pulse width - enabling pushbutton or logic-controlled system restart without external components.
What is the reset output configuration of the MAX6718UKVDD3?
The MAX6718UKVDD3 provides a push-pull active-low RST output on Pin 1, referenced to VCC1. It sources up to 200µA (VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC1) and sinks up to 3.2mA (VOL ≤ 0.4V), eliminating the need for an external pullup resistor - a key differentiator from open-drain variants like MAX6718UKTDD3.
Can the MAX6718UKVDD3 monitor a third voltage rail?
No, the MAX6718UKVDD3 is a dual-supply supervisor and does not include RSTIN or PFI inputs. It monitors only VCC1 and VCC2. For triple-voltage monitoring, consider MAX6719A/MAX6720A (with RSTIN) or MAX6728A/MAX6729A (with PFI/PFO), which are distinct part numbers in the same family.
What is the supply current consumption of the MAX6718UKVDD3 at 3.6V?
The MAX6718UKVDD3 draws 14µA typical supply current at 3.6V (ICC1), as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This value remains stable across temperature (-40°C to +125°C) and is measured with all I/O connections open and outputs not asserted - critical for battery lifetime estimation in portable designs.
