Product details
Overview
MAX6733AUTVDD3+ from Maxim Integrated is a dual-voltage microprocessor supervisor IC with push-pull reset output, independent push-pull watchdog output, and factory-set reset thresholds of +3.075V (VCC1) and +1.665V (VCC2), supporting 210ms reset timeout. It monitors two supply rails in embedded systems and asserts active-low reset when either drops below its threshold, ensuring reliable power-on and brownout recovery in industrial and telecom equipment.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6733AUTVDD3+ datasheet, MAX6733AUTVDD3+ pinout, MAX6733AUTVDD3+ application, or MAX6733AUTVDD3+ equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, validated pin functions, confirmed dual-supply monitoring behavior, and real-world timing characteristics - all specific to the MAX6733AUTVDD3+ variant in 6-pin SOT23 package with D3 timeout and VDD/VDD suffix coding.
Technical Context
The MAX6733AUTVDD3+ implements a dual-threshold voltage monitor with fixed VCC1 = +3.075V and VCC2 = +1.665V thresholds, each with ±1.5% tolerance over −40°C to +125°C and 20ppm/°C tempco. Its reset logic asserts RST low on any undervoltage event and holds for 140–280ms (D3 option), with restart capability if either supply dips again before timeout completes.
It integrates a dual-mode watchdog timer: 35s minimum startup delay after reset, then 1.12s minimum normal-mode timeout (tWD-S), triggered by WDI edge transitions. The push-pull WDO and RST outputs drive directly without external pullups, and MR is absent - confirming this variant lacks manual reset input per selector guide and pin configuration data.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

Pinout & Package
MAX6733AUTVDD3+ is housed in a 6-pin SOT23-6 package (U6-1), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm, with gull-wing leads and RoHS-compliant lead-free finish (+T suffix).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RST | Active-low reset output | Push-pull driver; asserts low on VCC1/VCC2 undervoltage; no external pullup required; valid down to VCC ≥ +0.8V |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for internal comparators, watchdog, and output drivers; must be low-impedance |
| 3 - WDO | Active-low watchdog output | Push-pull driver; asserts low on WDI timeout or VCC undervoltage; deasserts immediately when condition clears |
| 4 - - | Not connected | No internal connection; left floating per datasheet pin map for MAX6733A |
| 5 - WDI | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive input; rising/falling transition resets watchdog timer; floating state does not disable function |
| 6 - VCC1 | Primary supply input | Powers device and feeds VCC1 monitor; nominal +3.075V threshold applies; accepts 0.8V–5.5V range |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual fixed-voltage monitoring | Simultaneously supervises +3.075V and +1.665V rails with independent comparators and hysteresis |
| Push-pull RST and WDO outputs | Eliminates need for external pullup resistors, reducing BOM count and board space in compact designs |
| Dual-mode watchdog timer | 35s startup delay allows full system boot; 1.12s runtime timeout detects firmware hangs without false alarms |
| Immunity to short VCC transients | Rejects glitches ≤10µs (at 75mV overdrive), preventing spurious resets in noisy power environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6732AUTVDD3+ | Same VCC1/VCC2 thresholds (+3.075V/+1.665V) and D3 timeout, but open-drain RST/WDO outputs requiring external pullups | Suitable where system already uses pullup networks or level-shifting interfaces; less suitable for direct-drive MCU reset pins | Select MAX6732AUTVDD3+ only if open-drain compatibility is required; otherwise MAX6733AUTVDD3+ simplifies layout and reduces component count |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Single-supply supervisor (3.3V only), no VCC2 monitor, 200ms timeout, push-pull RST, but lacks independent watchdog output | Limited to single-rail systems; cannot replace dual-monitoring function without adding discrete circuitry | Use only when monitoring one supply suffices and watchdog independence is not required; MAX6733AUTVDD3+ provides integrated dual-rail + watchdog in same footprint |
Compared with MAX6732AUTVDD3+, MAX6733AUTVDD3+ eliminates external pullups and simplifies timing validation; compared with TPS3808G33DBVR, it adds essential second-rail monitoring and dedicated watchdog signaling - making it the only drop-in solution for dual-supply systems requiring autonomous fault response.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for VCC1 and VCC2 on the MAX6733AUTVDD3+?
The MAX6733AUTVDD3+ has factory-set VCC1 reset threshold of +3.075V (±1.5%) and VCC2 reset threshold of +1.665V (±1.5%), as defined by the "VD" suffix in its part number per Maxim's Reset Voltage Threshold Suffix Guide. These values are guaranteed over −40°C to +125°C and include 0.5% hysteresis referenced to typical threshold. The MAX6733AUTVDD3+ does not support adjustable RSTIN monitoring - that feature is exclusive to MAX6734A/MAX6735A variants.
Does the MAX6733AUTVDD3+ include a manual reset input (MR)?
No, the MAX6733AUTVDD3+ does not include a manual reset input. Per the Selector Guide and Pin Description table, only MAX6730A, MAX6731A, MAX6734A, and MAX6735A variants feature MR functionality. The MAX6733AUTVDD3+ is a dual-supply supervisor with watchdog and push-pull outputs but no MR pin - pin 4 is unconnected. This matches its designation as a MAX6733A-series device in the ordering table.
What is the reset timeout period for the MAX6733AUTVDD3+ and how is it selected?
The MAX6733AUTVDD3+ uses the "D3" suffix, specifying a reset timeout period of 140ms (minimum) to 280ms (maximum), with typical value ~210ms. This timeout is factory-programmed and non-adjustable. The timer starts when both VCC1 and VCC2 exceed their thresholds and holds RST low for the full duration unless interrupted by another undervoltage event - which restarts the timer. This timing is fully characterized across temperature and supply voltage.
How does the watchdog timer operate on the MAX6733AUTVDD3+?
The MAX6733AUTVDD3+ watchdog operates in two phases: a 35s minimum startup delay after reset (to allow system boot), followed by a 1.12s minimum normal-mode timeout. A rising or falling edge on WDI resets the timer; failure to provide such an edge within the timeout causes WDO to assert low. The MAX6733AUTVDD3+ uses push-pull WDO, so no external pullup is needed - unlike open-drain variants. WDO deasserts immediately when the fault clears.
Is the MAX6733AUTVDD3+ pin-compatible with other MAX673xA variants in SOT23-6?
Yes, the MAX6733AUTVDD3+ shares the identical 6-pin SOT23-6 (U6-1) package and pinout with MAX6730A, MAX6731A, MAX6732A, and MAX6733A - including RST (pin 1), GND (pin 2), WDO (pin 3), NC (pin 4), WDI (pin 5), and VCC1 (pin 6). However, functional differences exist: MAX6733AUTVDD3+ has push-pull RST/WDO and no MR, whereas MAX6730A/MAX6731A include MR and differ in output type. PCB layout is interchangeable, but firmware and external circuitry must match the variant's features.
