Product details
Overview
MAX6747KA23+T from Analog Devices is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with factory-trimmed 2.3V ±2% VCC reset threshold, manual-reset input (MR), push-pull active-low RESET output, and capacitor-adjustable reset timeout (tRP) and watchdog timeout (tWD). It monitors single supply voltage (1.2V–5.5V), asserts reset on VCC drop or MR pull-down, and provides transient-immune brownout protection for automotive embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6747KA23+T datasheet, MAX6747KA23+T pinout, MAX6747KA23+T application, or MAX6747KA23+T equivalent, this device delivers AEC-Q100-qualified, automotive-grade supervision with configurable timing, dual-voltage monitoring capability (via external resistor divider on RESET IN), and guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = 1V - critical for battery-powered safety-critical systems.
Technical Context
The MAX6747KA23+T implements a fixed-threshold VCC monitor with ±2% accuracy over −40°C to +125°C and integrates a manual-reset input (MR) with internal 12–28kΩ pullup, 1μs minimum pulse width, and 100ns glitch rejection. Its reset timeout (tRP) and watchdog timeout (tWD) are set independently via external capacitors CSRT and CSWT using linear scaling formulas (tRP = 4.94×10⁶ × CSRT).
This variant belongs to the MAX6746–MAX6753 family's "standard watchdog" subgroup (not windowed), supports normal-mode watchdog only (no WDS pin function), and features push-pull RESET output with VOL ≤ 0.3V at ISINK = 50µA and VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC at ISOURCE = 200µA - enabling direct interface to 1.8V/3.3V/5V µP reset inputs without level-shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold Voltage | 2.3V ±2% (factory-trimmed); ensures reliable reset assertion during 2.3V supply brownout across full automotive temperature range. |
| Supply Current | 3.7µA typical at VCC ≤ 2.0V; enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed or energy-constrained systems. |
| Reset Timeout Period | Adjustable from ~0.5ms to ~9.5ms via CSRT capacitor (e.g., 100pF → 0.506ms, 1500pF → 7.59ms); matches µP power-up sequencing requirements. |
| Watchdog Timeout Period | Adjustable from ~0.5ms to ~9.5ms (normal mode) via CSWT capacitor; provides software-execution timing guardrail without fixed-interval constraints. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C; fully specified for under-hood automotive, industrial control, and medical equipment environments. |
| RESET Output Type | Push-pull active-low; eliminates need for external pullup resistor and guarantees defined logic state across full VCC range ≥ 1V. |
| Manual Reset Input | MR pin with internal 12–28kΩ pullup to VCC; supports direct switch connection without debouncing network or external components. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6747KA23+T is housed in an 8-pin SOT23 package (outline 21-0078, land pattern 90-0176), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in automotive and portable applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | MR (Manual Reset) | Active-low input; internally pulled up to VCC; initiates reset when pulled low for ≥1μs; rejects <100ns glitches. |
| 2 | WDS (Watchdog Select) | No-connect (NC) for MAX6747; unused in this variant - watchdog operates in fixed normal mode only. |
| 3 | SWT (Watchdog Timeout) | Capacitor connection node; sets tWD via CSWT (tWD = 4.94×10⁶ × CSWT); connect to GND to disable watchdog. |
| 4 | SRT (Reset Timeout) | Capacitor connection node; sets tRP via CSRT (tRP = 4.94×10⁶ × CSRT); determines reset pulse width after fault clearance. |
| 5 | GND | Ground reference for all analog and digital functions; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 6 | WDI (Watchdog Input) | Falling-edge sensitive input; must be strobed within tWD to prevent reset; requires 100kΩ pull-down if unused. |
| 7 | RESET | Push-pull active-low output; drives µP reset pin directly; valid logic state guaranteed for VCC ≥ 1V. |
| 8 | VCC | Supply input (1.2V–5.5V); powers internal circuitry and serves as monitored voltage source for fixed-threshold reset. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed 2.3V reset threshold | ±2% accuracy over −40°C to +125°C eliminates calibration effort and improves system reliability vs. resistor-divider solutions. |
| Capacitor-adjustable reset & watchdog timeouts | Enables precise timing tuning (0.5–9.5ms range) without firmware changes or BOM revisions - ideal for diverse µP boot sequences. |
| Integrated manual-reset input with internal pullup | Reduces bill-of-materials by eliminating external pullup resistor and simplifies front-panel reset button implementation. |
| Power-supply transient immunity | Rejects VCC glitches ≤50µs at 100mV overdrive - prevents spurious resets in electrically noisy automotive environments. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Validated for automotive applications per stress test requirements, supporting functional safety design in ASIL-B/C systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6746KA23+T | Identical reset threshold (2.3V), same SOT23 package, but lacks MR pin - uses RESET IN instead for manual reset. | Requires external resistor divider on RESET IN to implement manual reset; unsuitable where direct MR switch interface is needed. | Select MAX6747KA23+T when board-level manual reset button integration is required without additional passives. |
| TLV803EB23DBZR | 2.32V fixed threshold, 0.9µA ICC, no watchdog or manual reset; SOT23-3 package (3 pins vs. 8). | Basic reset-only function; cannot support watchdog supervision or MR; limited to single-rail monitoring with no timing adjustability. | Choose TLV803EB23DBZR only for cost-sensitive, space-constrained designs requiring reset-only functionality without supervision features. |
Compared with MAX6746KA23+T and TLV803EB23DBZR, the MAX6747KA23+T uniquely combines factory-trimmed 2.3V reset, integrated MR input, adjustable watchdog, and push-pull RESET in one AEC-Q100-qualified SOT23 - delivering full supervision capability without design compromises.

FAQ
What is the factory-trimmed reset threshold voltage of the MAX6747KA23+T?
The MAX6747KA23+T has a factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold of 2.3V with ±2% accuracy over the full automotive temperature range (−40°C to +125°C), as confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table and Selector Guide. This value corresponds to suffix "23" in the part number and is not adjustable via external resistors - the device uses internal trimming for high-precision single-supply monitoring.
Does the MAX6747KA23+T support windowed watchdog functionality?
No, the MAX6747KA23+T does not support windowed watchdog functionality. Per the Selector Guide and Pin Descriptions, it belongs to the standard watchdog subgroup (MAX6746–MAX6751) and implements only normal-mode watchdog timing controlled by CSWT and WDI. Windowed watchdog (tWD1/tWD2) is exclusive to MAX6752/MAX6753 variants, which feature SET0/SET1 pins absent in MAX6747KA23+T.
Can the MAX6747KA23+T monitor two independent supply voltages simultaneously?
Yes, the MAX6747KA23+T can monitor two voltages: its primary VCC supply (1.2V–5.5V) and a secondary voltage via the RESET IN pin. Although MAX6747 is not listed in the dual-monitoring row of the Selector Guide, its RESET IN pin accepts an externally divided voltage (e.g., using R1/R2) to set a second threshold - confirmed in the "RESET IN Threshold" section and Figure 2 of the datasheet. This enables dual-rail supervision without requiring MAX6750/MAX6751.
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for the MAX6747KA23+T?
The MAX6747KA23+T has an absolute maximum VCC rating of +6.0V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. However, its operational supply range is 1.2V to 5.5V (with 1.0V minimum for RESET validity), and electrical characteristics are guaranteed only within that range. Operating continuously above 5.5V risks permanent damage and violates the device's specified functional limits.
Is the RESET output of the MAX6747KA23+T open-drain or push-pull?
The RESET output of the MAX6747KA23+T is push-pull active-low, as indicated by the "PUSH/PULL RESET" column in the Selector Guide and confirmed in the Pin Descriptions table. This eliminates the need for an external pullup resistor and ensures defined logic levels across the full operating VCC range ≥ 1V - unlike open-drain variants such as MAX6749KA23+T which require external pullup.
