Product details
Overview
MAX6725KAZWD3+T from Maxim Integrated is a triple-voltage microprocessor supervisory circuit in an 8-pin SOT23 package, monitoring VCC1 (1.62V threshold), VCC2 (2.313V threshold), and RSTIN (626.5mV reference) with 210ms reset timeout, watchdog timer, manual reset input, and power-fail detection - used to ensure reliable boot and brownout recovery in multivoltage embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6725KAZWD3+T datasheet, MAX6725KAZWD3+T pinout, MAX6725KAZWD3+T application, or MAX6725KAZWD3+T equivalent, key selection criteria include dual open-drain reset outputs (RST/RST2), 14µA typical supply current at 3.6V, guaranteed reset validity down to VCC1 or VCC2 = 0.8V, and compatibility with 0.62V–3.3V auxiliary voltage monitoring via RSTIN.
Technical Context
The MAX6725KAZWD3+T implements independent dual-voltage monitoring with factory-trimmed thresholds for VCC1 and VCC2, plus an externally adjustable third channel via high-impedance RSTIN referenced to a 626.5mV internal bandgap. It integrates a dual-mode watchdog timer (35s startup / 1.12s normal mode) and active-low manual reset with 50kΩ internal pullup.
Its reset logic asserts both RST (push-pull, referenced to VCC1) and RST2 (push-pull, referenced to VCC2) low upon any fault condition - including VCC1/VCC2 undervoltage, RSTIN drop below threshold, MR assertion, or watchdog timeout - and holds for a guaranteed minimum 210ms after all monitored voltages recover.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Reset Threshold | 1.620V (typ), factory-trimmed Z-suffix; ensures reliable reset assertion when primary supply drops below nominal 1.8V rail |
| VCC2 Reset Threshold | 2.313V (typ), factory-trimmed Z-suffix; monitors secondary 2.5V or 3.3V domain with ±0.5% hysteresis |
| RSTIN Threshold | 626.5mV (typ), internal reference; enables precise external resistor-divider setup for third-supply monitoring down to 0.62V |
| Reset Timeout Period | 210ms (min), D3-suffix; provides 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 |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.12s (min) normal mode; detects software hangs within sub-second window after system boot completes |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial-grade embedded applications with no derating required |
Pinout & Package
MAX6725KAZWD3+T is housed in an 8-pin SOT23-8 package (2.0mm × 2.1mm × 1.25mm), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts while supporting dual push-pull reset outputs and full triple-supply supervision functionality.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RST | Active-low push-pull reset output referenced to VCC1; asserts during any fault and holds for 210ms timeout |
| 2 | GND | System ground reference for all internal comparators, timers, and output drivers |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input with 50kΩ internal pullup to VCC1; forces reset when pulled low |
| 4 | PFO | Active-low power-fail output (push-pull, VCC1-referenced); asserts independently of reset when PFI < 626.5mV |
| 5 | VCC2 | Secondary supply input (0.9V–3.3V range); powers internal circuitry and sets VCC2 reset threshold |
| 6 | VCC1 | Primary supply input (1.8V–5.0V range); powers device core and defines RST output reference |
| 7 | PFI | Power-fail comparator input; high-impedance node for setting external trip point using resistor divider |
| 8 | RST2 | Active-low push-pull reset output referenced to VCC2; provides independent reset signaling for secondary domain |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual push-pull reset outputs | RST (VCC1-referenced) and RST2 (VCC2-referenced) eliminate need for external pullups and support independent domain reset signaling |
| Triple-supply monitoring | Simultaneous supervision of VCC1, VCC2, and RSTIN/PFI enables robust power sequencing in SoC/FPGA systems with >2 rails |
| Dual-mode watchdog timer | 35s initial timeout allows full system boot; 1.12s normal timeout detects runtime lockups without false triggers |
| Guaranteed reset validity to 0.8V | Ensures correct reset state even during deep brownout conditions where VCC1 or VCC2 dips near 0.8V |
| Low 14µA supply current | Minimizes quiescent load on battery-backed or energy-harvested supplies without sacrificing response speed |
Applications
| Industrial PLC Controllers | Network Router Power Management |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple-voltage supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6726KAZWD3+T | Single push-pull RST output (no RST2); identical thresholds, timeout, and feature set otherwise | Lacks independent VCC2-referenced reset signal; unsuitable for systems requiring domain-isolated reset assertion | Select MAX6726KAZWD3+T only if RST2 is unused and board layout prioritizes pin count reduction over dual-domain control |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Dual-voltage monitor only (VDD1/VDD2); no RSTIN, PFI, or watchdog; 300ms timeout; SOT23-6 package | Cannot supervise third rail or provide power-fail warning; lacks manual reset and watchdog safety features | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR for cost-sensitive dual-rail applications where auxiliary monitoring and watchdog are unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6726KAZWD3+T and TPS3808G33DBVR, the MAX6725KAZWD3+T uniquely delivers dual push-pull reset outputs, RSTIN-adjustable third-rail supervision, and integrated watchdog - making it the only option among the three that fully supports triple-rail, domain-isolated, and safety-critical embedded designs.

FAQ
What is the exact reset timeout period of the MAX6725KAZWD3+T?
The MAX6725KAZWD3+T has a guaranteed minimum reset timeout period of 210ms, corresponding to the D3 suffix in its part number. This value is specified across the full -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range and ensures sufficient hold time for processor initialization and peripheral stabilization before release.
Does the MAX6725KAZWD3+T support monitoring a 1.2V supply as VCC2?
Yes, the MAX6725KAZWD3+T supports VCC2 monitoring from 0.9V to 3.3V. Its factory-trimmed Z-suffix VCC2 threshold of 2.313V is compatible with 1.2V supplies when used with appropriate external resistor scaling on RSTIN - but direct VCC2 = 1.2V operation requires verifying that the actual VCC2 voltage remains above the 0.8V minimum for guaranteed reset validity.
How does the watchdog timer behave during system startup on the MAX6725KAZWD3+T?
The MAX6725KAZWD3+T implements a dual-mode watchdog: after any reset event (power-up, brownout, MR, or watchdog timeout), it enters a 35s minimum startup mode to allow full system boot. Once the first valid WDI transition occurs, it switches to 1.12s minimum normal mode - preventing premature timeouts during initialization while ensuring rapid hang detection thereafter.
Can the MAX6725KAZWD3+T generate a power-fail interrupt without asserting system reset?
Yes, the MAX6725KAZWD3+T provides independent PFO (power-fail output) functionality. When PFI falls below 626.5mV, PFO asserts low immediately - with only 2µs propagation delay - without triggering the reset timeout or affecting RST/RST2 states, enabling software-initiated graceful shutdown before critical power loss.
What is the function of Pin 8 (RST2) on the MAX6725KAZWD3+T?
Pin 8 (RST2) is an active-low push-pull reset output referenced to VCC2. It asserts simultaneously with RST during any fault condition (VCC1/VCC2 undervoltage, MR, RSTIN, or watchdog timeout) but maintains its logic level relative to the secondary supply - enabling safe reset signaling in systems where VCC2 powers isolated domains such as analog sensors or communication interfaces.
