Product details
Overview
The MAX6725KAZGD3 from Maxim Integrated is a dual-voltage microprocessor supervisory circuit in 6-pin SOT23 package, monitoring VCC1 (primary supply) and VCC2 (secondary supply) with factory-trimmed reset thresholds of 4.625V and 3.075V respectively, 210ms minimum reset timeout, and integrated manual-reset input (MR). It ensures reliable system boot and brownout protection in battery-powered and industrial embedded systems requiring stable dual-rail voltage supervision.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6725KAZGD3 datasheet, MAX6725KAZGD3 pinout, MAX6725KAZGD3 application, or MAX6725KAZGD3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed reset validity down to VCC1/VCC2 = 0.8V, 14µA typical supply current at 3.6V, push-pull active-low RST output referenced to VCC1, and compatibility with manual-reset and watchdog-free operation.
Technical Context
The MAX6725KAZGD3 implements dual independent voltage comparators with hysteresis (0.5% of threshold), internal 20ppm/°C tempco, and synchronized reset assertion logic that triggers when either VCC1 or VCC2 falls below its respective factory-trimmed threshold. Its reset timeout timer is monolithic and non-adjustable, set to 210ms (min) per suffix D3.
It features an internal 50kΩ pullup on MR, supports CMOS-level manual reset with 1µs minimum pulse width and 100ns glitch rejection, and guarantees correct reset state during power ramp-down - no external capacitor required for basic operation. The device operates across -40°C to +125°C and draws only 14µA (typ) at 3.6V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Threshold | 4.625V (factory-trimmed falling threshold; enables reliable supervision of 5V rails with margin) |
| VCC2 Threshold | 3.075V (factory-trimmed falling threshold; matches common 3.3V I/O supply tolerance) |
| Reset Timeout | 210ms (min); ensures µP completes power-on initialization before release) |
| Supply Current | 14µA (typ at 3.6V); enables multi-year battery life in portable equipment) |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +125°C; qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control environments) |
| Reset Valid Down To | VCC1 or VCC2 ≥ 0.8V; guarantees clean reset assertion during deep brownout conditions) |
| MR Input Logic | Active-low with 50kΩ internal pullup to VCC1; eliminates need for external resistor in most designs) |
Pinout & Package
MAX6725KAZGD3 is housed in a RoHS-compliant 6-pin SOT23 package (2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm), with gull-wing leads and thermal pad not present. Pin 1 is marked by dot; pin numbering follows standard SOT23 convention (counterclockwise from mark).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (RST) | Active-Low Reset Output | Push-pull output referenced to VCC1; asserts low on fault and holds for 210ms min after recovery |
| 2 (GND) | Ground Reference | Common return for all internal comparators, timers, and outputs; must be low-impedance |
| 3 (MR) | Manual-Reset Input | Active-low input with internal 50kΩ pullup to VCC1; 1µs pulse width sufficient to trigger reset |
| 4 (VCC2) | Secondary Supply Input | Powers internal circuitry when VCC2 > VCC1; monitored for 3.075V threshold violation |
| 5 (VCC1) | Primary Supply Input | Main power rail input; powers device and monitored for 4.625V threshold violation |
| 6 (NC) | No Connect | Internally unused; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage monitoring | Simultaneous supervision of primary (VCC1) and secondary (VCC2) rails without shared reference error |
| Factory-trimmed precision thresholds | ±1.5% initial accuracy on both VTH1 and VTH2 eliminates calibration overhead in production |
| Guaranteed reset validity to 0.8V | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during severe brownout - no external undervoltage lockout needed |
| Low quiescent current | 14µA typical draw extends battery life in always-on IoT sensors and portable medical devices |
| Integrated MR pullup | Removes external BOM item and PCB footprint; simplifies schematic and reduces assembly cost |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-voltage supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Single-supply supervisor (3.3V only); no VCC2 input; 200ms timeout; 1.6µA IQ | Cannot monitor dual rails simultaneously; requires separate IC for second supply | Select only if system has single regulated rail and ultra-low IQ is critical |
| ADM6705ARJZ-REEL7 | Fixed 3.08V VCC1 threshold; no VCC2 monitoring; 200ms timeout; open-drain RST | Lacks secondary supply supervision; requires external pullup; lower temp grade (–40°C to +105°C) | Use where cost sensitivity outweighs dual-rail capability and extended temperature need |
Compared with TPS3808G33DBVR and ADM6705ARJZ-REEL7, the MAX6725KAZGD3 uniquely delivers factory-matched dual-threshold supervision in one 6-pin SOT23, enabling smaller BOM, reduced layout area, and guaranteed coordination between two supply domains - essential for complex embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the reset timeout period of the MAX6725KAZGD3?
The MAX6725KAZGD3 has a fixed minimum reset timeout period of 210ms, as indicated by the "D3" suffix in its part number. This value is factory-programmed and non-adjustable. The timeout begins when the last monitored supply (VCC1 or VCC2) rises above its respective threshold and ends with deassertion of the active-low RST output. It is guaranteed over the full –40°C to +125°C operating temperature range.
Does the MAX6725KAZGD3 support monitoring a third voltage rail?
No, the MAX6725KAZGD3 does not support a third voltage rail. It is a dual-supply supervisor with dedicated VCC1 and VCC2 inputs only. Models such as MAX6723A or MAX6727A include the RSTIN pin for adjustable auxiliary voltage monitoring, but MAX6725KAZGD3 omits this pin and functionality - confirmed by its 6-pin SOT23 pinout and absence of RSTIN in the pin description table.
Is the MR input of the MAX6725KAZGD3 internally pulled up?
Yes, the MR input of the MAX6725KAZGD3 features an internal 50kΩ pullup resistor to VCC1, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table and Pin Description. This eliminates the need for an external pullup in most designs. The MR pin accepts CMOS-compatible logic levels and requires only a 1µs minimum low pulse width to initiate a reset, with built-in 100ns glitch rejection.
What is the supply voltage range over which the MAX6725KAZGD3 guarantees valid reset operation?
The MAX6725KAZGD3 guarantees correct reset output logic state as long as either VCC1 or VCC2 remains greater than 0.8V - explicitly stated in the General Description and Absolute Maximum Ratings sections. This ensures deterministic reset assertion even during deep brownout conditions, unlike many supervisors that fail unpredictably below 1.0V.
Does the MAX6725KAZGD3 include a watchdog timer function?
No, the MAX6725KAZGD3 does not include a watchdog timer. Its part number suffix and functional description confirm it belongs to the non-watchdog variant group (MAX6725A series). Watchdog capability is present only in MAX6721A–MAX6729A/MAX6797A parts with WDI pin - absent in MAX6725KAZGD3's 6-pin configuration and pin function table.
