Product details
Overview
MAX6720UTYHD3+T from Maxim Integrated is a triple-voltage microprocessor supervisory circuit in SOT23-6 package, monitoring VCC1 (4.625V threshold), VCC2 (3.075V threshold), and an externally adjustable RSTIN input (626.5mV reference). It asserts active-low push-pull reset for ≥210ms after any supply drop, supports manual reset and watchdog timer, and operates from -40°C to +85°C in multivoltage embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6720UTYHD3+T datasheet, MAX6720UTYHD3+T pinout, MAX6720UTYHD3+T application, or MAX6720UTYHD3+T equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-supply monitoring with factory-trimmed thresholds, 210ms reset timeout, push-pull RST output referenced to VCC1, and guaranteed reset validity down to VCC1 or VCC2 = 0.8V.
Technical Context
The MAX6720UTYHD3+T implements independent voltage comparators for primary (VCC1) and secondary (VCC2) supplies plus a high-impedance RSTIN input with 626.5mV internal reference, enabling precise third-voltage monitoring via external resistor divider. Its reset logic combines OR-ed fault conditions - VCC1/VCC2 undervoltage, RSTIN undervoltage, or MR assertion - with a monolithic timeout counter.
It features a push-pull RST output referenced to VCC1, 14µA typical supply current at 3.6V, immunity to sub-20µs VCC transients, and guaranteed operation with VCC1 or VCC2 ≥ 0.8V - critical for brownout detection in battery-backed or low-voltage logic domains.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Threshold | 4.625V (factory-trimmed, ±125mV tolerance) - sets primary supply monitor trip point for 5V/3.3V system rails |
| VCC2 Threshold | 3.075V (factory-trimmed, ±75mV tolerance) - enables reliable monitoring of 3.3V I/O or auxiliary supplies |
| RSTIN Reference | 626.5mV (±15.5mV) - allows external resistor-divider to monitor third supply down to 0.62V with <25nA input bias |
| Reset Timeout | 210ms (min) - ensures sufficient hold time for processor initialization and peripheral stabilization |
| Supply Current | 14µA (typ at 3.6V) - enables long battery life in portable equipment without compromising supervision accuracy |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and telecom environments with no derating required |
| Reset Output Type | Push-pull active-low - eliminates need for external pullup and drives directly into µP reset pin |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-6 package (2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm), lead-free, RoHS-compliant, thermal pad optional.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RST | Active-low push-pull reset output referenced to VCC1; asserts when any monitored supply falls below threshold or MR is pulled low |
| 2 | GND | System ground reference for all internal comparators and output drivers |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input with 50kΩ internal pullup to VCC1; forces reset on logic-low pulse ≥1µs |
| 4 | VCC2 | Secondary supply input (0.9V–3.3V range); powers internal VCC2 comparator and sets RST2 reference if present |
| 5 | VCC1 | Primary supply input (1.8V–5.0V range); powers core logic, sets RST output reference, and enables reset validity down to 0.8V |
| 6 | RSTIN | High-impedance adjustable reset input; monitors third voltage via external divider; threshold = 626.5mV ±15.5mV |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual factory-trimmed voltage monitors | VCC1 = 4.625V ±125mV and VCC2 = 3.075V ±75mV - eliminates external resistor networks and calibration for standard rail supervision |
| Externally adjustable third-voltage monitor | RSTIN with 626.5mV reference and <25nA input current - supports precision monitoring of 0.62V–5.5V supplies using two resistors |
| Guaranteed reset validity at low VCC | Functional reset assertion with VCC1 or VCC2 ≥ 0.8V - ensures reliable brownout detection during power ramp-down |
| Push-pull RST output | Drives µP reset pin directly without external pullup; VOL ≤ 0.4V at 3.2mA sink - reduces BOM count and layout complexity |
| Immunity to short VCC transients | No false reset for negative-going glitches <20µs (at 100mV overdrive) - prevents spurious resets in noisy power 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6720UTYHD5+T | Same package and thresholds, but 420ms (min) reset timeout vs. 210ms | Better suited for systems requiring longer reset hold time for complex FPGA configuration or multi-stage bootloaders | Select when extended reset duration is needed; otherwise MAX6720UTYHD3+T provides optimal timing for standard µP initialization. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Single-supply monitor (3.3V only), no RSTIN or VCC2 input; 200ms timeout; SOT23-6 | Lacks triple-monitor capability and adjustable third-input; suitable only for single-rail systems | Choose only if monitoring only one supply; MAX6720UTYHD3+T is required for dual/third-voltage supervision. |
Compared with MAX6720UTYHD5+T and TPS3808G33DBVR, the MAX6720UTYHD3+T uniquely delivers factory-trimmed dual-threshold supervision plus RSTIN-based third-voltage monitoring in a single SOT23-6 package, with 210ms timeout optimized for general-purpose µP boot sequences without over-provisioning delay.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for VCC1 on the MAX6720UTYHD3+T?
The MAX6720UTYHD3+T has a factory-trimmed VCC1 reset threshold of 4.625V, with a guaranteed tolerance of ±125mV (4.500V to 4.750V) across temperature and supply variations. This value is encoded in the 'YH' suffix per Maxim's Reset Voltage Threshold Suffix Guide and is measured under falling VCC1 conditions.
Does the MAX6720UTYHD3+T support monitoring a third supply voltage, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the MAX6720UTYHD3+T supports third-supply monitoring via its RSTIN pin, which uses an internal 626.5mV reference voltage. A resistor divider connected between the target supply and ground sets the trip point using the formula VEXT_TH = 626.5mV × ((R1 + R2)/R2). The MAX6720UTYHD3+T guarantees RSTIN input current < ±25nA, enabling high-impedance, low-power monitoring.
What is the reset timeout period for the MAX6720UTYHD3+T, and is it adjustable?
The MAX6720UTYHD3+T has a fixed minimum reset timeout period of 210ms, indicated by the 'D3' suffix in its part number. This timeout is internally generated and not user-adjustable; it begins when reset is asserted and ensures the reset signal remains active for at least 210ms after all monitored supplies exceed their thresholds.
Is the reset output of the MAX6720UTYHD3+T open-drain or push-pull, and what are its drive capabilities?
The MAX6720UTYHD3+T features a push-pull active-low reset output (RST) referenced to VCC1. It can sink up to 3.2mA while maintaining VOL ≤ 0.4V at VCC1 ≥ 4.5V, and source up to 800µA while maintaining VOH ≥ 0.8 × VCC1 - eliminating the need for an external pullup resistor and enabling direct connection to most µP reset inputs.
How does the MAX6720UTYHD3+T ensure valid reset operation during low-supply conditions?
The MAX6720UTYHD3+T guarantees correct reset output logic state even when VCC1 or VCC2 drops to 0.8V - significantly lower than typical supervisor ICs. This is achieved through proprietary biasing and comparator design, ensuring reliable brownout detection and preventing premature release of reset during power decay in battery-operated or automotive systems.
