Product details
Overview
MAX6747KA45+T from Analog Devices is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with factory-trimmed 4.5V reset threshold, manual-reset input (MR), push-pull active-low RESET output, and capacitor-adjustable reset timeout (tRP) and watchdog timeout (tWD). It monitors VCC supply voltage (1.2V–5.5V), asserts reset on undervoltage or MR activation, and provides ±2% threshold accuracy over –40°C to +125°C for automotive-grade embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6747KA45+T datasheet, MAX6747KA45+T pinout, MAX6747KA45+T application, or MAX6747KA45+T equivalent, this device delivers configurable reset/watchdog timing, transient-immune operation down to VCC ≥ 1V, AEC-Q100 qualification, and dual-mode watchdog (normal/extended) in an 8-pin SOT23 package - critical for battery-powered medical instruments and automotive ECUs requiring deterministic power-on reset behavior.
Technical Context
The MAX6747KA45+T implements a fixed 4.5V VCC reset comparator with ±2% tolerance and 0.8% hysteresis, paired with a manual-reset input (MR) internally pulled up to VCC and rejecting <100ns glitches. Its reset timeout period (tRP) and watchdog timeout (tWD) are set independently via external capacitors CSRT and CSWT using t = 4.94×10⁶ × C (seconds/Farads).
It supports normal watchdog mode only (no windowed watchdog or SET0/SET1 pins), with WDS pin enabling 128× extended timeout when pulled high. The push-pull RESET output guarantees valid logic state for VCC ≥ 1V, sinks 50µA at VOL ≤ 0.3V, and sources 200µA at VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC, eliminating need for external pull-up resistors.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.5V ±2% (factory-trimmed); ensures precise brownout detection for 5V systems without external resistor divider |
| Supply Current | 3.7µA typical at VCC ≤ 2.0V; enables multi-year battery life in portable medical sensors |
| Reset Timeout Range | 0.506ms to 9.487ms (CSRT = 100pF to 1500pF); covers µP power-up delays from fast MCUs to legacy processors |
| Watchdog Timeout Range | 0.506ms–9.487ms (normal mode), 64.77ms–1214.4ms (extended mode); supports both firmware service intervals and long idle periods |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C; fully specified for under-hood automotive applications and industrial control environments |
| VCC Range | 1.2V to 5.5V; compatible with 1.8V, 3.3V, and 5V logic domains without level-shifting |
| Reset Output Type | Push-pull active-low; eliminates external pull-up, reduces BOM count, and ensures clean logic transitions |
Pinout & Package
MAX6747KA45+T is housed in an 8-pin SOT23 package (package code K8+5A, outline 21-0078), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm, with RoHS-compliant lead finish and thermal resistance θJA = 196°C/W on four-layer board.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - MR | Manual-Reset Input | Internally pulled up to VCC; assert low ≥1µs to trigger reset; rejects <100ns noise pulses |
| 2 - WDS | Watchdog Select Input | Pull low for normal watchdog timeout; pull high to extend timeout by 128×; clears watchdog timer on transition |
| 3 - SWT | Watchdog Timeout Input | Connect capacitor to GND; sets tWD = 4.94×10⁶ × C; connect to GND to disable watchdog |
| 4 - SRT | Reset Timeout Input | Connect capacitor to GND; sets tRP = 4.94×10⁶ × C; determines minimum reset pulse width |
| 5 - GND | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal circuits and external timing capacitors |
| 6 - WDI | Watchdog Input | Falling edge resets watchdog timer; must not float; 100kΩ pull-down recommended if unused |
| 7 - RESET | Active-Low Reset Output | Push-pull driver; asserts low during reset conditions; guaranteed valid for VCC ≥ 1V |
| 8 - VCC | Supply Voltage Input | Power source and monitored rail; accepts 1.2V–5.5V; powers internal comparators and logic |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the factory-trimmed reset threshold voltage of the MAX6747KA45+T?
The MAX6747KA45+T features a factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold of 4.5V with ±2% tolerance over –40°C to +125°C, as confirmed by Table 2 (suffix "45") and Electrical Characteristics section. This value is laser-trimmed during production and requires no external components to achieve precise 4.5V brownout detection - critical for 5V system integrity in automotive applications.
Does the MAX6747KA45+T support windowed watchdog functionality?
No, the MAX6747KA45+T does not support windowed watchdog functionality. Per the Selector Guide and Pin Configurations, it belongs to the MAX6746–MAX6751 group, which implements only standard (non-windowed) watchdog with normal/extended modes via WDS. Windowed watchdog (tWD1/tWD2) is exclusive to MAX6752/MAX6753 variants with SET0/SET1 pins - not present on MAX6747KA45+T.
How is the reset timeout period adjusted on the MAX6747KA45+T?
The reset timeout period (tRP) on MAX6747KA45+T is adjusted by connecting a capacitor (CSRT) between the SRT pin (Pin 4) and GND. The relationship is tRP = 4.94 × 10⁶ × CSRT (seconds/Farads), yielding 0.506ms at 100pF and 9.487ms at 1500pF. Ceramic capacitors with leakage <10nA are required; values are validated in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Reset Timeout Period".
What is the function of the WDS pin on the MAX6747KA45+T?
The WDS (Watchdog Select) pin on MAX6747KA45+T selects watchdog timeout mode: pulled low for normal timeout (tWD), pulled high to extend timeout by 128×. A state change on WDS clears the watchdog timer. This pin is absent on MAX6752/MAX6753 (replaced by SET0/SET1) and confirms MAX6747KA45+T's membership in the MAX6746–MAX6751 series per Pin Descriptions and Selector Guide.
Is the MAX6747KA45+T AEC-Q100 qualified?
Yes, the MAX6747KA45+T is AEC-Q100 qualified, as explicitly stated in the "Benefits and Features" section ("AEC-Q100 Qualified") and supported by full specification over –40°C to +125°C (automotive temperature range). This qualification applies to the entire MAX6746–MAX6753 family, including all suffix variants like KA45+T, and is verified per AEC-Q100 Rev H stress testing protocols.
