Product details
Overview
The MAX6734KASYD3 from Maxim Integrated is a triple-voltage microprocessor supervisor IC with independent watchdog output, monitoring +2.925V (VCC1), +2.188V (VCC2), and an adjustable input down to +0.626V (RSTIN), featuring 210ms reset timeout, open-drain RST/WDO outputs, and manual reset input - used in multivoltage telecom and industrial systems for reliable power-on reset and lockup recovery.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6734KASYD3 datasheet, MAX6734KASYD3 pinout, MAX6734KASYD3 application, or MAX6734KASYD3 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual fixed-threshold voltage monitoring (+2.925V/+2.188V), adjustable third-channel threshold (626mV), 210ms reset timeout, -40°C to +85°C operation, and SOT23-8 open-drain output compatibility with µP reset interfaces.
Technical Context
The MAX6734KASYD3 implements three independent voltage monitors: two factory-set comparators (VCC1 = +2.925V, VCC2 = +2.188V) and one high-impedance adjustable comparator (RSTIN = 626mV reference) enabling external resistor-divider configuration for third-supply monitoring. All three inputs feed into a shared reset logic block that asserts active-low RST on any undervoltage condition.
Its watchdog circuit operates in dual-mode: 35s minimum startup delay after reset for system initialization, then transitions to 1.12s minimum normal timeout upon first WDI edge detection; WDO is open-drain and asserted low on watchdog timeout or VCC/RSTIN undervoltage, with MR input capable of forcing reset and clearing the watchdog timer.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Threshold | +2.925V nominal (S suffix), ±1.5% over temp - sets primary supply monitor for +3.3V rail validation |
| VCC2 Threshold | +2.188V nominal (Y suffix), ±1.5% over temp - sets secondary supply monitor for +2.5V or +2.2V rail validation |
| RSTIN Threshold | +626mV internal reference, ±2.5mV - enables precise third-rail monitoring via external divider |
| Reset Timeout | 140ms–280ms (D3 suffix), typ. 210ms - ensures sufficient hold time for slow-starting µPs and peripherals |
| Supply Current | 14µA typical at +3.6V - supports battery-backed and low-power always-on supervision |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and telecom equipment environments |
| Output Type | Open-drain RST and WDO - allows wired-OR reset bus sharing and flexible pullup voltage selection |
Pinout & Package
MAX6734KASYD3 is housed in an 8-pin SOT23-8 package (3.00mm × 1.75mm × 1.30mm body, 0.65mm pitch), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in portable and dense telecom modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RST | Active-low reset output | Open-drain output asserted low during VCC1/VCC2/RSTIN undervoltage or MR assertion; requires external pullup |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal comparators, watchdog, and I/O; must be low-impedance |
| 3 - VCC2 | Secondary supply input | Power source and monitored voltage for +2.188V threshold; powers internal circuitry when > VCC1 |
| 4 - WDO | Active-low watchdog output | Open-drain output asserted low on watchdog timeout or VCC/RSTIN undervoltage; shares reset bus capability |
| 5 - VCC1 | Primary supply input | Power source and monitored voltage for +2.925V threshold; powers internal circuitry when > VCC2 |
| 6 - WDI | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive input; rising/falling edges reset watchdog timer; floating state does not disable function |
| 7 - RSTIN | Adjustable reset comparator input | High-impedance (±25nA) input referenced to 626mV; accepts divided-down voltages up to VCC1 |
| 8 - MR | Active-low manual reset input | Drives reset when pulled low; includes 50kΩ internal pullup to VCC1; debounced by 100ns glitch rejection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple-voltage monitoring | Simultaneously supervises +2.925V, +2.188V, and adjustable third rail - eliminates need for three discrete supervisors |
| Dual-mode watchdog timer | 35s startup delay + 1.12s normal timeout - accommodates boot sequences while ensuring rapid lockup detection |
| Guaranteed reset validity | Valid RST output down to VCC1/VCC2 = +0.8V - maintains system integrity during brownout conditions |
| Immunity to VCC transients | Rejects falling glitches <45µs at 100mV overdrive - prevents spurious resets in noisy power environments |
| Low quiescent current | 14µA typical at +3.6V - extends battery life in portable applications without sacrificing supervision accuracy |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6734KASVD3-T | VCC2 threshold = +1.575V (V suffix) instead of +2.188V (Y suffix); same D3 timeout, SOT23-8, open-drain outputs | Optimized for +1.8V/1.5V dual-rail systems rather than +3.3V/2.5V; requires revalidation of VCC2 margin | Select when supervising lower secondary rails; verify RSTIN divider ratio remains valid under new VCC2 operating point |
| MAX6735KASYD3-T | Identical thresholds and timeout, but push-pull RST/WDO outputs instead of open-drain; same pinout and footprint | Eliminates need for external pullups but incompatible with wired-OR reset buses; higher drive strength for heavy capacitive loads | Choose for single-load reset distribution or where board-level pullup resistors are undesirable; confirm µP reset pin tolerates push-pull drive |
Compared with MAX6734KASYD3-T, MAX6734KASVD3-T shifts VCC2 monitoring to +1.575V for low-voltage SoC rails, while MAX6735KASYD3-T replaces open-drain outputs with push-pull - offering stronger drive but requiring redesign of reset bus topology.

FAQ
What are the exact factory-set reset thresholds for MAX6734KASYD3?
The MAX6734KASYD3 features VCC1 threshold of +2.925V (S suffix) and VCC2 threshold of +2.188V (Y suffix), both with ±1.5% tolerance over -40°C to +85°C. Its RSTIN input uses a precise +626mV internal reference for adjustable third-rail monitoring via external resistor divider.
Does MAX6734KASYD3 support manual reset functionality?
Yes, MAX6734KASYD3 includes an active-low manual reset input (MR) with 50kΩ internal pullup to VCC1. Driving MR low forces immediate RST assertion and clears the watchdog timer; reset remains active for the full 210ms timeout after MR release.
What is the watchdog timeout behavior of MAX6734KASYD3?
MAX6734KASYD3 employs dual-mode watchdog timing: a 35s minimum startup delay after reset for system initialization, followed by 1.12s minimum normal timeout after first WDI edge detection. WDO asserts low on timeout or VCC/RSTIN undervoltage.
Can MAX6734KASYD3 monitor a +5V supply using the RSTIN pin?
Yes, MAX6734KASYD3 can monitor +5V via RSTIN using a resistor divider. With its +626mV internal reference, a 7.02:1 divider (e.g., 6.02kΩ top, 1kΩ bottom) scales +5V to 626mV at RSTIN, enabling accurate undervoltage detection for higher rails.
What package type and footprint does MAX6734KASYD3 use?
MAX6734KASYD3 is packaged in an 8-pin SOT23-8 (3.00mm × 1.75mm × 1.30mm) with 0.65mm lead pitch. It shares footprint compatibility with other MAX6734/MAX6735 variants and requires standard SOT23-8 reflow profiles per JEDEC MO-178 BA.
