Product details
Overview
The MAX6740XKSHD3+ from Maxim Integrated is a triple-voltage microprocessor supervisor IC with two factory-trimmed reset thresholds (VTH1 = 2.925V, VTH2 = 2.188V) and one adjustable RSTIN input (488mV threshold), open-drain RESET output, manual reset detect function, and 150ms minimum reset timeout - designed for multivoltage portable systems requiring precise power sequencing and fault detection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6740XKSHD3+ datasheet, MAX6740XKSHD3+ pinout, MAX6740XKSHD3+ application, or MAX6740XKSHD3+ equivalent, this device serves as a low-power (6µA), SC70-5 packaged supervisory solution for validating dual-core/I/O supply integrity, enabling pushbutton-initiated system resets with internal debouncing, and supporting voltage-margining via external resistor dividers on RSTIN.
Technical Context
The MAX6740XKSHD3+ monitors three independent supply rails: primary VCC1 (2.925V threshold), secondary VCC2 (2.188V threshold), and user-adjustable RSTIN (488mV reference). It asserts an active-low open-drain RESET when any monitored voltage falls below its threshold and holds reset for ≥150ms after all supplies recover.
Its manual reset detect function uses the RESET pin itself - internally pulled up to VCC1 via 50kΩ - enabling direct connection to a momentary switch without external components; debounce is built-in (37.5–75ms), and MR timeout matches the VCC reset period (150ms).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC1 Threshold | 2.925V ±2.5% - factory-trimmed for reliable I/O supply monitoring at 3.0V nominal rails |
| VCC2 Threshold | 2.188V ±2.5% - factory-trimmed for core supply supervision at 2.2V nominal rails |
| RSTIN Threshold | 0.488V ±1.5% - precision internal reference enabling adjustable monitoring down to 0.5V via resistor divider |
| Reset Timeout | 150ms min - ensures µP reset duration meets boot-loader initialization requirements |
| Supply Current | 6µA typical - enables battery life extension in always-on portable equipment |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and extended-temperature embedded applications |
| Package | 5-pin SC70 - 2.0mm × 1.25mm footprint ideal for space-constrained PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
MAX6740XKSHD3+ is housed in a 5-pin SC70-5 package (2.0mm × 1.25mm, 0.65mm pitch), optimized for high-density portable designs. Pin 1 is RESET (open-drain active-low), Pin 2 is GND, Pin 3 is RSTIN (adjustable threshold input), Pin 4 is VCC2 (secondary supply input), and Pin 5 is VCC1 (primary supply input).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RESET | Open-drain active-low reset output | Internally pulled up to VCC1 via 50kΩ; supports manual reset detect and bidirectional µP interface without contention |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return for all internal comparators, timers, and output drivers; must be low-impedance |
| 3 - RSTIN | Adjustable reset threshold input | Monitors external voltage via resistor divider; asserts RESET when input falls below 0.488V |
| 4 - VCC2 | Secondary supply input | Monitored at 2.188V threshold; used for core voltage supervision in dual-rail systems |
| 5 - VCC1 | Primary supply input | Monitored at 2.925V threshold; powers internal circuitry and provides pullup for RESET and MR functions |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple-supply monitoring | Simultaneous supervision of VCC1 (2.925V), VCC2 (2.188V), and RSTIN (0.488V) eliminates need for multiple discrete supervisors |
| Manual reset detect on RESET pin | Integrated 50kΩ pullup and 37.5–75ms debounce allow direct pushbutton connection - no external RC or logic required |
| Low 6µA quiescent current | Enables >10-year battery life in coin-cell-powered IoT sensors and wearables with periodic wake-up cycles |
| Factory-trimmed thresholds | ±2.5% accuracy over -40°C to +85°C avoids calibration overhead in production test and field operation |
| SC70-5 package | 2.0mm × 1.25mm footprint reduces board area by >60% vs. SOT23-5, critical for ultra-thin handhelds |
Applications
| Portable Medical Sensors | Industrial PLC I/O Modules |
|---|---|

Use Scenario: Bluetooth-enabled wristband using coin cell and buck-boost regulator generating 3.0V and 1.8V rails for RF SoC and motion sensor. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: VCC1 (3.0V) and VCC2 (1.8V) thresholds verify regulator outputs; RSTIN monitors battery voltage via divider to trigger graceful shutdown at 2.4V. Use Value: Extends usable battery capacity by 12% through accurate low-VBAT detection and prevents unexpected reboots during voltage sag. |
Use Scenario: Head unit with separate 5V USB host, 3.3V processor, and 1.2V DDR memory rails - requiring strict power-up order and fail-safe shutdown. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Uses VCC1 (5V) and VCC2 (3.3V) to enforce I/O-before-core sequencing; RSTIN monitors 12V input via divider to initiate controlled power-down on ignition-off transition. Use Value: Meets ISO 16750-2 transient immunity requirements and avoids EEPROM corruption during vehicle battery disconnect. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple-voltage supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6743XKSHD3+ | Push-pull RESET output (vs. open-drain); identical VTH1/VTH2/RSTIN thresholds and timing | Requires no external pullup; better suited for systems with unidirectional reset lines or noise-sensitive environments | Select when µP reset pin is not bidirectional and board layout lacks space for pullup resistor |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Dual-supply only (3.3V/1.8V fixed), no RSTIN; 300ms timeout; 1.6µA supply current | Lacks third adjustable monitor channel; optimized for ultra-low-power applications where only two rails require supervision | Choose when system has only two critical supplies and sub-2µA quiescent current is mandatory |
Compared with MAX6740XKSHD3+, MAX6743XKSHD3+ offers push-pull drive for simpler interfacing but forfeits manual reset detect capability, while TPS3808G33DBVR reduces current draw by 73% but removes the flexible RSTIN channel needed for custom voltage monitoring.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for VCC1 on the MAX6740XKSHD3+?
The MAX6740XKSHD3+ has a factory-trimmed VCC1 reset threshold of 2.925V, with ±2.5% tolerance over the full -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range. This value is confirmed by the "SH" suffix in the part number per Table 1 of the datasheet and applies specifically to the MAX6740 variant with D3 (150ms) timeout.
Does the MAX6740XKSHD3+ support manual reset functionality, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the MAX6740XKSHD3+ supports manual reset via its open-drain RESET pin, which includes an internal 50kΩ pullup to VCC1 and built-in debounce (37.5–75ms). Pressing a momentary switch between RESET and GND forces the output low; the device holds reset for the full 150ms timeout after release - no external components are required.
Can the MAX6740XKSHD3+ monitor a third voltage beyond VCC1 and VCC2?
Yes, the MAX6740XKSHD3+ includes an RSTIN pin with a precise 0.488V internal reference, allowing monitoring of a third voltage (e.g., battery, LDO enable, or auxiliary rail) using an external resistor divider. The threshold is set by VEXT_TH = 0.488V × ((R1 + R2)/R2), enabling flexible customization without additional ICs.
What is the supply current consumption of the MAX6740XKSHD3+ under typical operating conditions?
The MAX6740XKSHD3+ draws 6µA typical supply current when both VCC1 and VCC2 are above their thresholds and reset is not asserted. This ultra-low quiescent current is measured at TA = +25°C with VCC1 = 3.3V and VCC2 = 2.5V, making it ideal for battery-critical applications like wearables and remote sensors.
Is the MAX6740XKSHD3+ pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX6736–MAX6745 family?
No - the MAX6740XKSHD3+ uses a unique pin configuration among the family: Pin 3 is RSTIN and Pin 4 is VCC2. In contrast, MAX6736/MAX6737 place MR on Pin 3 and VCC2 on Pin 4, while MAX6742/MAX6745 assign PFI/PFO to Pins 3 and 4. PCB layout must be specific to the MAX6740 variant.
