Product details
Overview
MAX6726KAZWD3+ 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 an externally adjustable RSTIN input (626.5mV reference) with 210ms reset timeout, watchdog timer, manual reset, and push-pull active-high RST output - used in multivoltage telecom and industrial power management systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6726KAZWD3+ datasheet, MAX6726KAZWD3+ pinout, MAX6726KAZWD3+ application, or MAX6726KAZWD3+ equivalent, key selection factors include its triple-supply monitoring capability, guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 0.8V, 14µA typical supply current at 3.6V, and integrated watchdog with 35s startup/1.12s normal timeout periods.
Technical Context
The MAX6726KAZWD3+ implements dual independent voltage comparators for VCC1 and VCC2 plus a high-impedance RSTIN comparator referenced to a 626.5mV internal bandgap, enabling precise third-supply monitoring via external resistor divider. Its reset logic asserts RST high when any monitored voltage falls below its factory-trimmed threshold and holds for 210ms after recovery.
This device integrates a dual-mode watchdog timer: a 35s minimum initial timeout after reset enables full system boot, followed by a 1.12s minimum normal timeout requiring periodic WDI transitions. It features push-pull RST output referenced to VCC1, manual reset input with 50kΩ internal pullup, and operates across -40°C to +85°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Reset Threshold | 1.620V (factory-trimmed, ±3% over temp; ensures reliable reset assertion for 1.8V core supplies) |
| VCC2 Reset Threshold | 2.313V (factory-trimmed, ±3% over temp; monitors 2.5V I/O rails with margin) |
| RSTIN Reference Voltage | 626.5mV (internal precision bandgap; enables monitoring of auxiliary supplies ≥0.62V via resistor divider) |
| Reset Timeout Period | 210ms (minimum; guarantees µP reset hold time sufficient for full firmware initialization) |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.12s (normal mode minimum; detects processor lockup within sub-second latency) |
| Supply Current | 14µA (typical at 3.6V; enables battery-backed operation for >10 years in low-power systems) |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C (industrial-grade range; supports deployment in uncontrolled environments) |
Pinout & Package
MAX6726KAZWD3+ is housed in an 8-pin SOT23-8 package (2.0mm × 2.1mm × 1.25mm), thermally optimized for high-density PCB layouts and compatible with standard reflow profiles.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RST | Active-high push-pull reset output referenced to VCC1; drives high during fault and holds for 210ms after recovery |
| 2 | GND | System ground reference for all internal comparators and logic; must be low-impedance connection |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input with 50kΩ internal pullup to VCC1; pulse low ≥1µs to force reset |
| 4 | PFO | Active-low power-fail output (push-pull); asserts when PFI < 626.5mV, deasserts immediately without timeout |
| 5 | VCC2 | Secondary supply input (0.9V–3.3V range); powers internal VCC2 comparator and sets RST2 reference |
| 6 | VCC1 | Primary supply input (1.8V–5.0V range); powers device core, sets RST reference, and enables reset validity down to 0.8V |
| 7 | PFI | Power-fail monitor input; high-impedance node (±25nA) for resistor-divider-based threshold setting at 626.5mV |
| 8 | WDI | Watchdog input; requires rising/falling edge every ≤1.12s in normal mode to prevent reset assertion |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple-supply monitoring | Simultaneous VCC1/VCC2/RSTIN supervision enables single-chip protection for complex multirail systems (e.g., CPU core + I/O + analog) |
| Guaranteed reset validity | Operates correctly with VCC1 or VCC2 ≥ 0.8V - critical for brownout detection before complete power collapse |
| Dual-mode watchdog timer | 35s startup window accommodates full boot sequence; 1.12s runtime timeout catches software hangs without false triggers |
| Low quiescent current | 14µA typical at 3.6V reduces battery drain in always-on monitoring applications (e.g., remote sensors, backup controllers) |
| Push-pull RST output | Eliminates need for external pullup resistor; provides rail-to-rail drive strength for direct µP reset pin interface |
Applications
| Telecom Power Sequencing | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple-voltage supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6725KAZWD3+ | Provides dual open-drain RST outputs (RST1/RST2) instead of single push-pull RST; same thresholds, timeout, and feature set | Requires external pullup resistors; better suited for bidirectional µP reset pins or wired-OR reset bus architectures | Select when interfacing with processors requiring open-drain reset signaling or multi-drop reset distribution |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Dual-supply monitor only (VDD/VDD2); no RSTIN/PFI/WDI; 3.3V fixed VDD threshold; 200ms timeout; 1.1µA IQ | Lacks third-supply monitoring and watchdog; optimized for ultra-low-power dual-rail systems without auxiliary monitoring needs | Select when only two rails require supervision and nanowatt standby current is prioritized over feature completeness |
Compared with MAX6726KAZWD3+, MAX6725KAZWD3+ offers identical supervision accuracy and timing but requires external pullups due to open-drain outputs, while TPS3808G33DBVR trades triple-monitoring and watchdog capability for significantly lower quiescent current in simpler dual-rail applications.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for VCC1 on the MAX6726KAZWD3+?
The MAX6726KAZWD3+ has a factory-trimmed VCC1 reset threshold of 1.620V (typical), with ±3% tolerance over temperature. This value is encoded in the "Z" suffix per Maxim's Reset Voltage Threshold Suffix Guide and is validated across the full -40°C to +85°C operating range. The threshold remains stable with 20ppm/°C tempco, ensuring consistent behavior in varying thermal environments.
Does the MAX6726KAZWD3+ support monitoring a third voltage, and how is it configured?
Yes, the MAX6726KAZWD3+ supports third-voltage monitoring via its RSTIN pin, which compares the applied voltage against a precise 626.5mV internal reference. To monitor an auxiliary supply (e.g., 1.2V), connect a resistor divider from that rail to RSTIN and GND, sized so the divided voltage equals 626.5mV at the trip point. The high-impedance input (±25nA) minimizes loading.
What are the watchdog timer characteristics of the MAX6726KAZWD3+?
The MAX6726KAZWD3+ features a dual-mode watchdog: a 35s minimum initial timeout after any reset event (power-up, MR, or watchdog timeout) allows full system boot, followed by a 1.12s minimum normal timeout requiring WDI transitions. The timer clears on any rising or falling edge at WDI and asserts RST if no edge occurs within the timeout window.
How does the MAX6726KAZWD3+ ensure valid reset operation during deep brownout conditions?
The MAX6726KAZWD3+ guarantees correct reset output logic state even when VCC1 or VCC2 drops to 0.8V - well below typical reset thresholds. This is achieved through internal biasing and rail-aware output drivers. For applications requiring reset assertion down to 0V, a pullup resistor from RST to VCC1 is recommended, as the device's push-pull output remains functional through the entire 0.8V–5.5V supply range.
What package type and pin count does the MAX6726KAZWD3+ use?
The MAX6726KAZWD3+ uses an 8-pin SOT23-8 package (2.0mm × 2.1mm footprint, 1.25mm height), confirmed by Maxim's Ordering Information table and Pin Configurations section. This compact, surface-mount package supports high-density layouts and is compatible with standard automated assembly processes and IPC-7351B land patterns.
