Product details
Overview
MAX6750KA30+ from Analog Devices is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit with dual-voltage monitoring (VCC and external RESET IN), factory-trimmed 3.0V ±2% VCC reset threshold, and capacitor-adjustable reset/watchdog timeout periods. It features push-pull active-low RESET output, manual-reset input (MR), and standard watchdog timer with WDS-selectable extended mode (128×). Used in automotive engine control units to ensure reliable μP restart during brownout or software hang.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6750KA30+ datasheet, MAX6750KA30+ pinout, MAX6750KA30+ application, or MAX6750KA30+ equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, automotive-grade thermal performance (-40°C to +125°C), SOT23-8 package layout, and real-world timing behavior for reset timeout (5.7–9.5 ms with 1500 pF), watchdog timeout (5.7–9.5 ms normal / 729–1214 ms extended), and MR-to-RESET delay (200 ns).
Technical Context
The MAX6750KA30+ integrates two independent reset comparators: one monitors VCC against a factory-set 3.0V threshold (±2%, -40°C to +125°C), the other monitors an externally adjustable voltage via RESET IN pin with 1.235V ±0.019V threshold. Reset assertion is triggered by either comparator falling below its threshold or MR pull-down, with guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = 1.0V.
It implements a standard watchdog timer (not windowed) with capacitor-programmable timeout (tWD = 4.94 × 10⁶ × CSWT), selectable between normal and 128× extended mode via WDS pin. The watchdog clears on WDI falling edge, RESET assertion, or WDS transition - and restarts counting only after RESET deassertion.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold (VCC) | 3.000 V ±2% (factory-trimmed; ensures precise brownout detection at nominal 3.0V rail) |
| Reset Timeout Period | 5.69–9.49 ms (with 1500 pF on SRT; sets minimum processor hold time after power recovery) |
| Watchdog Timeout (Normal) | 5.69–9.49 ms (with 1500 pF on SWT; defines max software service interval before reset) |
| Watchdog Timeout (Extended) | 729–1214 ms (128× multiplier activated by WDS = VCC; supports long-loop firmware) |
| Supply Current | 3.7–10 µA (at VCC = 1.2–5.5 V; enables multi-year battery life in portable systems) |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C (AEC-Q100 qualified; validated for under-hood automotive use) |
| RESET Output Type | Push-pull active-low (drives μP reset pin directly without external pull-up; VOL ≤ 0.3 V @ 50 µA) |
Pinout & Package
MAX6750KA30+ is housed in an 8-pin SOT23 package (Outline 21-0078, Land Pattern 90-0176), optimized for space-constrained automotive and portable applications. Thermal resistance is 196°C/W (Junction-to-Ambient, 4-layer board).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - MR | Manual-Reset Input | Internally pulled up to VCC; assert reset by pulling low ≥1 µs; rejects 100 ns glitches |
| 2 - WDS | Watchdog Select Input | Ground = normal watchdog mode; VCC = 128× extended timeout; state change clears timer |
| 3 - SWT | Watchdog Timeout Input | Capacitor to GND sets tWD (normal/extended); connect to GND to disable watchdog |
| 4 - SRT | Reset Timeout Input | Capacitor to GND sets tRP (reset pulse width); formula: tRP = 4.94 × 10⁶ × CSRT |
| 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; 300 ns min pulse width accepted |
| 7 - RESET | Active-Low Reset Output | Push-pull driver; asserts low during fault; holds for full tRP after recovery |
| 8 - VCC | Supply Voltage Input | 1.0–5.5 V operation; powers device and feeds VCC monitor comparator |

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for MAX6750KA30+?
The MAX6750KA30+ has a factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold of 3.000 V with ±2% tolerance over -40°C to +125°C. This value is confirmed in Table 2 (suffix "30") and Electrical Characteristics section of the datasheet. The actual threshold falls between 2.940 V and 3.060 V at temperature extremes. MAX6750KA30+ does not use adjustable VCC threshold - only the RESET IN pin supports external resistor-divider configuration.
Does MAX6750KA30+ support dual-voltage monitoring, and how is it implemented?
Yes, MAX6750KA30+ supports dual-voltage monitoring: it monitors VCC against its fixed 3.0V threshold and simultaneously monitors an external voltage via the RESET IN pin using a 1.235V ±0.019V internal reference. To supervise a second rail (e.g., 5.0V), connect a resistor divider (R1/R2) between that rail and RESET IN, sized so the midpoint equals 1.235V at the desired trip point. This capability is explicitly listed in the Selector Guide for MAX6750/MAX6751.
What watchdog modes does MAX6750KA30+ support, and how is extended mode enabled?
MAX6750KA30+ supports normal and extended watchdog modes only - not windowed watchdog (which is exclusive to MAX6752/MAX6753). Extended mode (128× timeout multiplier) is enabled by connecting the WDS pin to VCC. When WDS = GND, the device operates in normal mode. A state change on WDS clears the watchdog timer, and the mode is latched until next reset or WDS transition.
What is the minimum recommended capacitor value for SRT and SWT on MAX6750KA30+?
The datasheet specifies valid operation with CSRT or CSWT = 100 pF, yielding ~0.506 ms reset or watchdog timeout. Ceramic capacitors with leakage <10 nA are required. For stable timing across temperature, X7R or C0G dielectrics are recommended. Values below 100 pF are not characterized and may cause timing inaccuracy or increased sensitivity to PCB stray capacitance.
Is MAX6750KA30+ pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX6746–MAX6753 family?
MAX6750KA30+ shares the identical 8-pin SOT23 pinout with MAX6746–MAX6751 (including MR, WDS, SWT, SRT, WDI, RESET, GND, VCC), as shown in the Pin Configurations diagram. However, pin functionality differs for MAX6752/MAX6753 (which replace WDS with SET0/SET1). Therefore, MAX6750KA30+ is pin-compatible with MAX6746–MAX6751 but not with MAX6752/MAX6753.
