Product details
Overview
MAX6740XKZWD3+ from Maxim Integrated is a triple-voltage microprocessor supervisor IC with two factory-trimmed reset thresholds (VTH1 = 2.313V, VTH2 = 1.665V) and one adjustable RSTIN input (488mV threshold), open-drain RESET output, manual reset detect function, and 150ms minimum reset timeout period. It operates from -40°C to +85°C in a 5-pin SC70 package and is used in multivoltage portable systems to ensure reliable power-on reset and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6740XKZWD3+ datasheet, MAX6740XKZWD3+ pinout, MAX6740XKZWD3+ application, or MAX6740XKZWD3+ equivalent, key selection considerations include its triple-supply monitoring capability, 6µA supply current, SC70 footprint, RSTIN-adjustable threshold down to 0.488V, and manual-reset-detect timing behavior with internal 50kΩ pullup.
Technical Context
The MAX6740XKZWD3+ implements a triple-supply supervisory architecture monitoring VCC1 (2.313V threshold), VCC2 (1.665V threshold), and RSTIN (488mV reference). Reset assertion occurs when any monitored voltage falls below its threshold, and reset remains active for ≥150ms after all voltages recover.
It features an open-drain RESET output with integrated 50kΩ pullup to VCC1 enabling manual reset detection via external pushbutton, plus independent MR input handling with 150ms timeout and 100ns glitch rejection - all within a single 5-pin SC70 package operating at 1.2V–5.5V supply range.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple-voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6743XKZWD3+ | Push-pull RESET output (vs. open-drain); no internal RESET pullup; identical thresholds and timing | Requires external pullup for manual reset; better suited for bidirectional µP reset pins needing driven high | Select when interfacing to processors with weak internal pullups or requiring active-high reset signaling via external inverter |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Dual-supply only (no RSTIN); 3.3V fixed VDD1 threshold; 1.2V adjustable VDD2 via resistor; 200ms timeout | Lacks third-monitoring channel; requires external resistor network for second threshold; higher 12µA supply current | Choose for cost-sensitive dual-rail designs where RSTIN functionality is unnecessary and SC70 size is acceptable |
Compared with MAX6743XKZWD3+, the MAX6740XKZWD3+ provides integrated manual reset detection without external components, while TPS3808G33DBVR offers lower cost but sacrifices triple-supply capability and doubles quiescent current - making MAX6740XKZWD3+ optimal for space-constrained, battery-sensitive triple-rail systems.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for VCC1 on the MAX6740XKZWD3+?
The MAX6740XKZWD3+ has a factory-trimmed VCC1 reset threshold of 2.313V, with ±75mV tolerance over the full -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range. This value is defined by the "ZW" suffix in the part number and is verified per Table 1 of the official Maxim datasheet. The threshold remains stable across supply voltage variations from 1.2V to 5.5V.
Does the MAX6740XKZWD3+ support manual reset functionality, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the MAX6740XKZWD3+ supports manual reset via its open-drain RESET pin, which includes an internal 50kΩ pullup resistor to VCC1. When a momentary switch connects RESET to GND, the device detects the low state and asserts RESET for the full 150ms timeout period after release. No external pullup is required, simplifying design and reducing component count compared to traditional MR-input-only supervisors.
Can the MAX6740XKZWD3+ monitor a 1.2V supply, and what is the lowest voltage it can supervise?
Yes, the MAX6740XKZWD3+ can monitor a 1.2V supply using its RSTIN pin with an external resistor divider. The internal RSTIN reference is 0.488V ±19mV, enabling supervision of voltages as low as 0.5V. For a 1.2V rail, a standard 1MΩ/511kΩ divider yields ~0.488V at RSTIN - allowing precise, low-current monitoring without loading the supply.
What is the supply current consumption of the MAX6740XKZWD3+, and how does it vary with temperature?
The MAX6740XKZWD3+ draws 6µA typical supply current at +25°C, with maximum of 10µA over -40°C to +85°C. Graphs in the datasheet (toc01–toc03) confirm current remains stable across temperature - e.g., 6.2µA at -40°C and 6.8µA at +85°C when VCC1 = 3.3V/VCC2 = 2.5V. This ultra-low, temperature-stable current enables multi-year operation on CR2032 batteries.
Is the MAX6740XKZWD3+ pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX6736–MAX6745 family?
No - the MAX6740XKZWD3+ uses a specific pinout (RESET/GND/VCC2/RSTIN/VCC1) that differs from MAX6736/MAX6737 (RESET/GND/MR/VCC2/VCC1) and MAX6742/MAX6745 (RESET/GND/PFI/PFO/VCC1). While all share the 5-pin SC70 package, pin functions are not interchangeable. Layout must match the MAX6740-specific configuration shown in Figure 15 of the datasheet.
