Product details
Overview
MAX6730UTRD3-T from Maxim Integrated is a single-voltage microprocessor supervisory IC with factory-set reset threshold (+2.625V), 210ms reset timeout, active-low open-drain reset output, and independent watchdog timer. It monitors VCC1 supply voltage, asserts reset on undervoltage or manual trigger, and supports system reliability in battery-powered embedded controllers requiring guaranteed reset validity down to +0.8V.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6730UTRD3-T datasheet, MAX6730UTRD3-T pinout, MAX6730UTRD3-T application, or MAX6730UTRD3-T equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, exact pin functions, real-world use cases, and two validated alternative parts - all confirmed for the precise MAX6730UTRD3-T variant, including its SOT23-6 package, R=+2.625V VCC1 threshold, D3=140–280ms timeout, and open-drain RST/WDO outputs.
Technical Context
The MAX6730UTRD3-T implements a dual-mode watchdog timer: a 35s minimum startup delay after reset enables full system initialization, followed by a 1.12s minimum normal-mode timeout for rapid fault detection. Its reset circuitry guarantees valid RST assertion down to VCC1 = +0.8V, with 0.5% threshold hysteresis and immunity to sub-100ns VCC transients.
This variant monitors only VCC1 (no VCC2 or RSTIN inputs), uses an internal 50kΩ MR pullup, and features open-drain RST and WDO outputs requiring external pullups. It draws just 14µA typical supply current at +3.6V and operates across –40°C to +85°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Reset Threshold | +2.625V (factory-set falling threshold; ±75mV tolerance over temp) |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140–280ms (D3 suffix; ensures sufficient hold time for µP boot sequence) |
| Supply Current | 14µA typ at +3.6V (enables multi-year operation in coin-cell-powered systems) |
| Watchdog Startup Delay | 35s min after reset (allows complex firmware initialization before watchdog monitoring begins) |
| Watchdog Normal Timeout | 1.12s min (detects software lockup within tight timing margins) |
| RST Output Type | Active-low open-drain (requires external pullup; compatible with bidirectional µP reset pins) |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C (fully specified for industrial-grade embedded deployment) |
Pinout & Package
MAX6730UTRD3-T is housed in a 6-pin SOT23-6 package (U6-1 outline), footprint-compatible with industry-standard 0.95mm pitch land pattern 90-0175. The compact 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm body supports high-density PCB layouts.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RST | Active-low open-drain reset output; asserts when VCC1 < +2.625V or MR pulled low; requires external pullup resistor |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal comparators and logic; must be low-impedance connection |
| 3 | WDO | Active-low open-drain watchdog output; asserts if no WDI edge occurs within 1.12s (normal mode) or 35s (startup mode) |
| 4 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC1 (50kΩ); drives RST low when asserted |
| 5 | WDI | Watchdog input; rising or falling edge clears watchdog timer; unconnected = watchdog remains active |
| 6 | VCC1 | Primary supply input; powers device and feeds VCC1 monitor; valid operating range +0.8V to +5.5V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-Set VCC1 Threshold | +2.625V (R-suffix) eliminates external resistor network; reduces BOM count and layout area |
| Dual-Mode Watchdog Timer | 35s startup + 1.12s normal timeout enables safe boot and responsive runtime fault detection |
| Guaranteed Reset Validity | RST remains functional down to VCC1 = +0.8V - critical for brownout recovery in low-VDD systems |
| Immunity to Short VCC Transients | Rejects <100ns glitches (per Typical Operating Characteristics), preventing spurious resets |
| Low Supply Current | 14µA typical at +3.6V supports >10-year battery life in always-on monitoring applications |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |
|---|---|
|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: VCC1 supervisor for +3.3V logic rail; asserts RST on brownout and enables watchdog recovery without host processor intervention. Use Value: Maintains deterministic I/O state during line disturbances using 0.5% hysteresis and transient-immune reset detection. |
| Smart Energy Meters | Point-of-Sale Terminals |
|
Use Scenario: ANSI C12.22-compliant electricity meter with dual-power sources (battery backup + mains-derived +3.3V), needing fail-safe reset coordination. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary supply monitor for main +3.3V rail; triggers reset and watchdog action when mains dropout causes VCC1 sag below +2.625V. Use Value: Ensures meter firmware restarts cleanly after power interruption, preserving billing integrity and communication session state. |
Use Scenario: EMV-compliant payment terminal with ARM-based SoC, where secure boot and runtime integrity are enforced by hardware watchdog. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Standalone watchdog supervisor tied to SoC's WDI pin; provides 1.12s timeout to catch stalled cryptographic operations or card-reader stalls. Use Value: Enforces PCI PTS compliance by guaranteeing automatic recovery from frozen states without user intervention or external reset circuitry. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6730UTSD3-T | VCC1 threshold = +2.925V (S-suffix); otherwise identical pinout, timing, and features | Suitable where system VCC1 nominal is +3.0V instead of +2.7V; same SOT23-6 package and D3 timeout | Select when design uses +3.0V rail and requires tighter margin above +2.925V threshold |
| TLV803EC26DBZR | Single-supply supervisor with +2.63V threshold, 200ms timeout, push-pull RST, no watchdog output | Lacks independent watchdog timer and WDO pin; suitable only for basic reset-only applications | Choose only if watchdog functionality is omitted from system architecture and push-pull RST is preferred |
Compared with MAX6730UTRD3-T, MAX6730UTSD3-T offers a higher reset threshold for +3.0V systems but identical watchdog capability, while TLV803EC26DBZR sacrifices watchdog supervision entirely for lower cost and simpler integration in non-critical reset-only roles.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC1 reset threshold voltage for MAX6730UTRD3-T?
The MAX6730UTRD3-T has a factory-set VCC1 reset threshold of +2.625V (R-suffix), with guaranteed tolerance of +2.550V to +2.700V over –40°C to +85°C. This value is fixed and cannot be adjusted externally, making it ideal for systems with a nominal +2.7V supply rail where precise undervoltage detection is required.
Does MAX6730UTRD3-T support dual-voltage monitoring?
No, MAX6730UTRD3-T monitors only VCC1. It belongs to the MAX6730/MAX6731 single-voltage subgroup and lacks VCC2 and RSTIN pins. Dual-voltage supervision requires MAX6732–MAX6733 (two fixed thresholds) or MAX6734–MAX6735 (two fixed + one adjustable), which use different pinouts and packages.
What is the function of the WDO pin on MAX6730UTRD3-T?
The WDO pin on MAX6730UTRD3-T is an active-low open-drain watchdog output that asserts low if no edge is detected on WDI within the watchdog timeout period (1.12s normal mode or 35s startup mode). It operates independently of the RST output and can be used to trigger secondary system actions - such as disabling power stages or logging faults - without resetting the entire µP.
Can MAX6730UTRD3-T operate with VCC1 below 1.0V?
Yes, MAX6730UTRD3-T guarantees valid reset assertion down to VCC1 = +0.8V, per Electrical Characteristics table. However, the device ceases functional operation below +0.8V, and RST output behavior is not specified below this voltage. For operation near 0V, a 100kΩ pulldown resistor is recommended - though this does not apply to open-drain RST outputs like MAX6730UTRD3-T.
Is MAX6730UTRD3-T pin-compatible with other MAX6730 variants?
Yes, all MAX6730 variants (e.g., MAX6730UTLD3-T, MAX6730UTSD3-T) share the same SOT23-6 package and identical pinout. Differences are limited to factory-set VCC1 threshold (L=+4.625V, S=+2.925V, R=+2.625V) and reset timeout (D1–D6), with no changes to pin function, electrical interface, or thermal characteristics.
