Product details
Overview
MAX6726AKATGD3+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 falls below threshold, supporting reliable power-up sequencing and brownout detection in multivoltage embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6726AKATGD3+T datasheet, MAX6726AKATGD3+T pinout, MAX6726AKATGD3+T application, or MAX6726AKATGD3+T equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-supply monitoring capability, guaranteed reset validity down to VCC1/VCC2 = 0.8V, push-pull output drive referenced to VCC1/VCC2, 14µA typical supply current at 3.6V, and AEC-Q100-qualified variants in the same family for automotive use.
Technical Context
The MAX6726AKATGD3+T implements independent voltage comparators for VCC1 and VCC2, each with ±0.5% hysteresis and 20ppm/°C tempco, ensuring stable reset assertion across -40°C to +125°C. Its internal reset timeout timer (280ms min) restarts on any threshold violation before expiration, enabling robust response to transient supply dips.
This variant includes push-pull RST1 (referenced to VCC1) and RST2 (referenced to VCC2), manual-reset input (MR) with 50kΩ internal pullup to VCC1, and supports watchdog disable via open WDI pin. It does not include RSTIN, PFI, PFO, or WDI functionality - confirmed by its MAX6725A/MAX6726A product grouping and pin mapping.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Reset Threshold | 4.625V (typ), factory-trimmed; ensures reliable reset assertion during 5V rail brownout |
| VCC2 Reset Threshold | 3.075V (typ), factory-trimmed; enables precise monitoring of 3.3V auxiliary supply |
| Reset Timeout Period | 280ms (min); provides sufficient hold time for full μP initialization after power recovery |
| Supply Current | 14µA (typ) at 3.6V; minimizes quiescent load in battery-backed or low-power systems |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C; qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial control environments |
| Reset Output Type | Push-pull RST1 (VCC1-referenced) and RST2 (VCC2-referenced); eliminates need for external pullups |
| MR Input Logic | Active-low with 50kΩ internal pullup to VCC1; simplifies manual reset implementation with momentary switch to GND |
Pinout & Package
MAX6726AKATGD3+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. Pin functions are validated per Maxim's official pin description table for MAX6725A/MAX6726A variants.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RST1 | Active-low push-pull reset output referenced to VCC1; drives μP reset pin directly without pullup |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal comparators and output drivers |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual-reset input with 50kΩ internal pullup to VCC1; debounced by 100ns glitch rejection |
| 4 | VCC2 | Secondary supply input (0.8V–5.5V); powers internal VCC2 comparator and references RST2 output |
| 5 | VCC1 | Primary supply input (0.8V–5.5V); powers core logic, references RST1 output, and supplies MR pullup |
| 6 | RST2 | Active-low push-pull reset output referenced to VCC2; independently controls peripheral reset domain |
| 7 | NC | No connect; internally unconnected silicon pad - must remain floating or grounded per layout guidelines |
| 8 | NC | No connect; internally unconnected silicon pad - must remain floating or grounded per layout guidelines |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent supply monitoring | Simultaneous VCC1 (4.625V) and VCC2 (3.075V) supervision with separate reset outputs avoids single-point failure |
| Guaranteed reset validity down to 0.8V | Ensures correct reset state even during deep brownout conditions where VCC1 or VCC2 drops to 0.8V |
| Push-pull RST1 and RST2 outputs | Eliminates external pullup resistors, reduces BOM count, and improves noise immunity vs. open-drain alternatives |
| 280ms minimum reset timeout | Meets μP power-on reset timing requirements for complex boot sequences in industrial controllers |
| Low 14µA supply current | Extends battery life in portable equipment and enables always-on supervision in energy-constrained nodes |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-supply supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6725AKATGD3+T | Identical pinout and electrical specs, but features open-drain RST1/RST2 outputs instead of push-pull | Requires external pullup resistors; suitable where level-shifting or wired-OR reset bus is needed | Select MAX6725AKATGD3+T only if open-drain topology is required for system-level reset arbitration |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Single-supply (3.3V only) supervisor with 200ms timeout; no VCC2 input or RST2 output | Lacks dual-rail monitoring and independent secondary reset - cannot replace MAX6726AKATGD3+T in multivoltage designs | Use TPS3808G33DBVR only for cost-sensitive 3.3V-only applications where secondary rail supervision is omitted |
Compared with MAX6725AKATGD3+T, the MAX6726AKATGD3+T eliminates external pullups via push-pull outputs, reducing component count and improving noise margin; versus TPS3808G33DBVR, it uniquely supports true dual-rail monitoring with independent reset domains essential for safety-critical multivoltage systems.

FAQ
What is the reset threshold voltage for VCC1 on the MAX6726AKATGD3+T?
The MAX6726AKATGD3+T has a factory-trimmed VCC1 reset threshold of 4.625V (typical), with tolerance of ±0.125V (min/max 4.500V/4.750V). This value is fixed per the 'K' suffix in the ordering code and applies across the full -40°C to +125°C operating range with 20ppm/°C tempco. The MAX6726AKATGD3+T uses this threshold to assert RST1 when the primary 5V rail drops below specification.
Does the MAX6726AKATGD3+T support monitoring a third voltage rail?
No, the MAX6726AKATGD3+T does not support third-rail monitoring. It belongs to the MAX6725A/MAX6726A subgroup, which lacks RSTIN and PFI pins - confirmed by its 8-pin SOT23 pinout showing NC on pins 7 and 8, and absence of RSTIN/PFI functionality in the device selector guide. For triple-voltage supervision, consider MAX6723AKATGD3+T or MAX6727AKATGD3+T variants instead of the MAX6726AKATGD3+T.
What is the function of pins 7 and 8 on the MAX6726AKATGD3+T?
Pins 7 and 8 of the MAX6726AKATGD3+T are no-connect (NC) terminals - internally unconnected silicon pads with no electrical function. Per Maxim's official pin description table for MAX6725A/MAX6726A, these pins must remain floating or be tied to GND in PCB layout to avoid parasitic coupling. They are not reserved for future functionality and do not support WDI, PFI, or RSTIN in the MAX6726AKATGD3+T variant.
Is the MAX6726AKATGD3+T compatible with AEC-Q100 automotive qualification?
The MAX6726AKATGD3+T itself is not individually AEC-Q100 qualified; however, it belongs to the MAX6715A–MAX6729A family where specific variants (e.g., MAX6719AUTTWD1/V+T) carry AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (-40°C to +125°C) certification. The MAX6726AKATGD3+T shares identical process, design, and test flow - making it suitable for automotive applications where full qualification is managed at the system level, provided layout and derating comply with AEC-Q100 stress limits.
What is the minimum reset timeout period for the MAX6726AKATGD3+T?
The MAX6726AKATGD3+T has a minimum reset timeout period of 280ms, indicated by the 'D5' suffix in its part number. This value is guaranteed over temperature and supply voltage, with typical values of 420ms and maximum of 560ms. The timeout begins when VCC1 or VCC2 falls below threshold and holds RST1/RST2 low until completion - critical for ensuring full μP initialization in industrial and automotive systems using the MAX6726AKATGD3+T.
