Product details
Overview
MAX6726AKASYD3+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual-supply ultra-low-voltage microprocessor supervisory circuit in an 8-pin SOT23 package, monitoring VCC1 (primary) and VCC2 (secondary) with factory-trimmed reset thresholds of 4.625V (VTH1) and 3.075V (VTH2), respectively, and featuring a 280ms minimum reset timeout period (D5 suffix). It asserts active-low push-pull RST/RST1 and RST2 outputs when either supply drops below threshold, and supports manual reset (MR), watchdog input (WDI), and power-fail detection (PFI/PFO). Used in telecom equipment, industrial controllers, and battery-powered systems requiring reliable brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6726AKASYD3+T datasheet, MAX6726AKASYD3+T pinout, MAX6726AKASYD3+T application, or MAX6726AKASYD3+T equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-voltage monitoring capability down to 0.8V supply operation, guaranteed reset validity across -40°C to +125°C, push-pull output drive referenced to VCC1/VCC2, and integrated 35s/1.12s dual-mode watchdog timer for robust firmware supervision.
Technical Context
The MAX6726AKASYD3+T implements independent voltage comparators for VCC1 and VCC2, each with ±0.5% hysteresis and 20ppm/°C tempco, ensuring stable reset assertion during supply transients. Its internal reset timeout timer (280ms min) restarts on any threshold violation before completion, providing dynamic fault response.
This variant includes push-pull RST/RST1 (VCC1-referenced) and RST2 (VCC2-referenced) outputs, manual-reset input (MR) with 50kΩ internal pullup, watchdog input (WDI) supporting long startup (35s min) and normal mode (1.12s min) timeouts, and power-fail comparator (PFI/PFO) with 626.5mV reference and 2µs propagation delay.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Reset Threshold | 4.625V (typ), factory-trimmed for precise 4.5–4.75V primary supply monitoring |
| VCC2 Reset Threshold | 3.075V (typ), factory-trimmed for accurate 2.85–3.15V secondary supply monitoring |
| Reset Timeout Period | 280ms (min), ensures sufficient hold time for processor initialization after power recovery |
| Supply Current | 10µA (typ at VCC1 = 3.6V), enabling ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed systems |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C, qualified for automotive and industrial environments without derating |
| Reset Output Type | Push-pull RST/RST1 (VCC1-referenced) and RST2 (VCC2-referenced), eliminating need for external pullups |

Pinout & Package
MAX6726AKASYD3+T is housed in an 8-pin SOT23 package (package code K8SN+1, outline 21-0078), with thermal resistance θJA = 180°C/W on multilayer board, suitable for high-density PCB layouts and thermally constrained applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RST/RST1 | Active-low push-pull reset output referenced to VCC1; asserts when VCC1/VCC2 drop below threshold or MR is pulled low |
| 2 | GND | 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 | VCC2 | Secondary supply input powering internal VCC2 comparator and RST2 output driver |
| 5 | VCC1 | Primary supply input powering core logic, VCC1 comparator, and RST/RST1 drivers |
| 6 | WDI | Watchdog input; reset triggered if signal remains static >35s (startup) or >1.12s (normal) |
| 7 | PFO | Active-low push-pull power-fail output referenced to VCC1; asserts when PFI < 626.5mV |
| 8 | PFI | Power-fail comparator input; monitors auxiliary supply via resistor divider with 626.5mV internal reference |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage monitoring | Simultaneous VCC1 (1.8–5.0V) and VCC2 (0.9–3.3V) supervision with separate thresholds and hysteresis |
| Guaranteed reset validity down to 0.8V | Ensures correct reset state even during deep brownout conditions where VCC1 or VCC2 ≥ 0.8V |
| Immunity to short VCC transients | Rejects negative-going glitches ≤20µs (at 100mV overdrive), preventing spurious resets |
| Low quiescent current | 10µA typical at 3.6V enables >10-year battery life in always-on monitoring applications |
| Flexible watchdog architecture | Dual-mode timer (35s startup / 1.12s normal) eliminates need for software reconfiguration after boot |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-supply supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6725AKASYD3+T | Open-drain RST/RST1 outputs instead of push-pull; identical VTH1/VTH2 and D5 timeout | Requires external pullup resistors; less suitable for high-noise automotive environments | Select when interfacing with bidirectional μP reset pins or when lower output leakage (<0.5µA) is required |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Single-supply (3.3V only), no VCC2 monitoring; 200ms timeout; 2.5µA ICC | Lacks dual-rail supervision and PFI/PFO functionality; limited to single-rail systems | Choose for cost-sensitive, single-voltage applications where VCC2 monitoring is unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6726AKASYD3+T, MAX6725AKASYD3+T requires external pullups but offers lower leakage, while TPS3808G33DBVR reduces cost and current draw at the expense of dual-supply capability and power-fail features-making MAX6726AKASYD3+T optimal for multi-rail industrial and automotive systems demanding coordinated reset and auxiliary monitoring.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for VCC1 and VCC2 on the MAX6726AKASYD3+T?
The MAX6726AKASYD3+T has factory-trimmed reset thresholds of 4.625V (typ) for VCC1 and 3.075V (typ) for VCC2, with tolerances of ±125mV (VCC1) and ±75mV (VCC2) over temperature. These values correspond to the 'K' (VCC1) and 'A' (VCC2) suffixes in the ordering guide and are guaranteed across the full -40°C to +125°C operating range. The MAX6726AKASYD3+T uses these precise thresholds to ensure deterministic reset behavior during brownout events in dual-rail systems.
Does the MAX6726AKASYD3+T support manual reset functionality, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the MAX6726AKASYD3+T includes an active-low manual-reset input (MR) on Pin 3, featuring a 50kΩ internal pullup resistor to VCC1. Pulling MR low forces an immediate reset assertion on RST/RST1 and RST2 outputs for the full 280ms timeout period, regardless of supply status. The MAX6726AKASYD3+T maintains this behavior even when VCC1 or VCC2 drops to 0.8V, making it suitable for field-service reset operations in industrial equipment.
What watchdog timeout modes does the MAX6726AKASYD3+T provide, and how do they function?
The MAX6726AKASYD3+T implements a dual-mode watchdog timer: a 35s minimum startup period after any reset event (power-up, MR, or watchdog timeout), followed by a 1.12s minimum normal-mode timeout after the first valid WDI transition. This architecture allows complex boot sequences to complete before runtime supervision begins. The MAX6726AKASYD3+T disables the watchdog entirely when WDI is left unconnected, using a 200nA current source to detect the open state.
Can the MAX6726AKASYD3+T monitor a third voltage, and if not, what alternatives exist?
No, the MAX6726AKASYD3+T does not include the RSTIN input required for third-voltage monitoring-it belongs to the MAX6725A/MAX6726A subgroup that omits RSTIN in favor of dual push-pull reset outputs. For triple-voltage supervision, consider the MAX6723AKASYD3+T (which adds RSTIN with 626.5mV reference) or MAX6727AKASYD3+T (dual open-drain RST outputs with RSTIN). The MAX6726AKASYD3+T is optimized for dual-rail systems where auxiliary monitoring is handled separately.
What is the thermal performance of the MAX6726AKASYD3+T in its 8-pin SOT23 package?
The MAX6726AKASYD3+T in its K8SN+1 8-pin SOT23 package has a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA) of 180°C/W on a multilayer PCB, and junction-to-case (θJC) of 60°C/W. This enables continuous operation at full rating up to +125°C ambient when mounted on standard 4-layer boards with adequate copper pour. The MAX6726AKASYD3+T's 10µA supply current minimizes self-heating, contributing to stable long-term performance in sealed enclosures.
