Product details
Overview
MAX6751KA17+T from Analog Devices is a low-power microprocessor supervisory IC with dual-voltage monitoring (VCC and RESET IN), factory-trimmed 1.665V ±2% VCC reset threshold, adjustable reset timeout via external capacitor (CSRT), and extended-mode watchdog timer (128× normal timeout). It features open-drain active-low RESET output and operates across the automotive temperature range (−40°C to +125°C) for critical power-up/brownout protection in embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6751KA17+T datasheet, MAX6751KA17+T pinout, MAX6751KA17+T application, or MAX6751KA17+T equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions, confirmed dual-supply monitoring capability, AEC-Q100 qualification status, and real-world timing behavior under transient conditions - all essential for automotive and battery-powered system design.
Technical Context
The MAX6751KA17+T implements dual-voltage supervision: a factory-trimmed 1.665V ±2% threshold monitors VCC, while an adjustable comparator on RESET IN (1.235V ±0.8% threshold) enables external resistor-divider-based monitoring of a second supply. Its watchdog timer supports normal and extended modes (128× scaling) via WDS pin control, with timeout periods set by CSWT capacitor values.
Reset assertion is guaranteed for VCC ≥ 1.0V; RESET remains valid during brownout down to 1V, and the device rejects transients ≤50µs when VCC dips 100mV below threshold. Supply current is 3.7µA typical at VCC = 2.0V, enabling ultra-low-power operation in portable and battery-backed systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold (VCC) | 1.665V ±2% - factory-trimmed precision reference enabling reliable power-on reset at 1.6V–1.7V rails without external components |
| RESET IN Threshold | 1.235V ±0.8% - high-accuracy adjustable input for monitoring secondary supply via resistor divider |
| Supply Current | 3.7µA typical at VCC = 2.0V - minimizes quiescent drain in always-on battery applications |
| Reset Timeout Range | 0.506ms to 9.487ms - set by 100pF–1500pF capacitor on SRT pin, covering µP initialization delays from fast MCUs to legacy processors |
| Watchdog Timeout (Extended) | 64.77ms to 1214.4ms - 128× scaling enables long software service intervals (e.g., >1s with 10nF CSWT) without firmware overhead |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - fully specified for under-hood automotive and industrial environments |
| RESET Output Type | Open-drain active-low - supports level-shifting to 0–6V logic domains and wired-OR reset bus configurations |
Pinout & Package
MAX6751KA17+T is housed in an 8-pin SOT23 package (Outline 21-0078, RoHS-compliant), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in automotive and portable equipment.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RESET IN | Adjustable reset comparator input | Accepts external voltage divider to monitor secondary supply; threshold fixed at 1.235V ±0.8% |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal circuits and external timing capacitors (SRT, SWT) |
| 3 - SWT | Watchdog timeout capacitor connection | Capacitor to GND sets base watchdog period; WDS pin selects ×1 or ×128 scaling |
| 4 - SRT | Reset timeout capacitor connection | Capacitor to GND sets reset pulse duration (tRP = 4.94×10⁶ × CSRT) |
| 5 - WDS | Watchdog mode select | Pull to GND for normal mode; pull to VCC for 128× extended timeout - state change clears watchdog timer |
| 6 - WDI | Watchdog input | Falling edge resets watchdog timer; must not float - 100kΩ pulldown recommended if unused |
| 7 - RESET | Open-drain reset output | Active-low signal asserted during VCC/RESET IN undervoltage or watchdog fault; requires external pullup |
| 8 - VCC | Power supply input | Operates from 1.2V to 5.5V; powers internal circuitry and serves as monitored rail (1.665V threshold) |

Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module | Medical Infusion Pump |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Monitors 1.8V MCU core supply and 3.3V sensor interface rail in a CAN-connected body controller exposed to load-dump transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-supply supervisor asserting RESET during VCC brownout or RESET IN undervoltage, with extended watchdog guarding against firmware lockup during ECU sleep/wake transitions. Use Value: Prevents erratic actuator behavior by ensuring MCU restarts only after both supplies stabilize, and detects missed watchdog pulses caused by CAN bus interference. |
Use Scenario: Ensures safe power-up and runtime integrity of a battery-powered infusion pump MCU operating from a 3.6V Li-ion cell with aging voltage sag. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises main 3.6V rail (via VCC pin) and backup 1.2V RTC supply (via RESET IN), using capacitor-adjustable reset timeout to accommodate slow analog subsystem wake-up. Use Value: Guarantees pump motor halts immediately on undervoltage, and extended watchdog prevents uncontrolled fluid delivery due to software hang during dose calculation. |
| Industrial PLC I/O Module | Portable Test Equipment |
Use Scenario: Protects ARM Cortex-M7-based I/O module in factory automation, where 24V field power fluctuations cause 5V/3.3V supply ripple. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Uses open-drain RESET to drive shared reset bus across multiple ASICs; RESET IN monitors isolated 3.3V auxiliary supply powering communication PHY. Use Value: Enables synchronized recovery of entire I/O stack after brownout, while independent monitoring of auxiliary supply prevents communication failure during primary rail recovery. |
Use Scenario: Powers up and safeguards a handheld oscilloscope's FPGA and ADC subsystems from Li-Po battery discharge below 3.0V. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Factory-trimmed 1.665V VCC threshold triggers reset before FPGA configuration fails; adjustable watchdog timeout matches FPGA bitstream reload time. Use Value: Eliminates corrupted measurements by forcing full reinitialization before analog front-end calibration completes, ensuring measurement traceability. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6750KA17+T | Same dual-monitoring architecture and 1.665V VCC threshold, but features push-pull RESET output instead of open-drain | Suitable where no external pullup is desired or where RESET must actively drive high during deassertion | Select MAX6750KA17+T when driving CMOS inputs directly without level-shifting or wired-OR buses |
| TPS3808G125DBVR | Single-supply supervisor (1.25V fixed threshold), no RESET IN input, no extended watchdog mode, 1.8µA typical ICC | Limited to single-rail monitoring; lacks dual-voltage capability and 128× watchdog scaling | Choose TPS3808G125DBVR only for cost-sensitive, single-rail applications where extended watchdog and secondary supply monitoring are unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6751KA17+T, MAX6750KA17+T offers identical supervision accuracy and timing but eliminates external pullup requirements, while TPS3808G125DBVR reduces quiescent current by 50% at the expense of dual-monitoring flexibility and watchdog configurability - making MAX6751KA17+T optimal for multi-rail automotive and medical systems requiring robust fault detection.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for MAX6751KA17+T?
The MAX6751KA17+T has a factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold of 1.665V ±2% (1.632V to 1.698V) over −40°C to +125°C. Its RESET IN input uses a separate 1.235V ±0.8% threshold for adjustable external supply monitoring. These values are specified in the Electrical Characteristics table and confirmed in Table 2 (suffix "17") of the datasheet.
Does MAX6751KA17+T support dual-voltage monitoring, and how is it implemented?
Yes, MAX6751KA17+T supports dual-voltage monitoring: VCC is monitored by its internal 1.665V ±2% comparator, while RESET IN pin monitors a second supply using a fixed 1.235V ±0.8% threshold. An external resistor divider on RESET IN sets the actual trip point (VMON_TH = 1.235V × (R1 + R2)/R2), enabling precise supervision of auxiliary rails like 3.3V or 5V supplies.
How does the extended watchdog mode work on MAX6751KA17+T?
The MAX6751KA17+T extends its watchdog timeout by 128× when the WDS pin is pulled high to VCC. With CSWT = 100pF, normal mode yields ~0.506ms timeout, while extended mode gives ~64.77ms. The watchdog timer clears on any WDI falling edge or WDS transition, and begins counting only after RESET deassertion - ensuring reliable detection of firmware hangs across diverse software cycles.
Is MAX6751KA17+T qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, MAX6751KA17+T is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 0: −40°C to +125°C) and fully specified across that range for voltage thresholds, timing parameters, and supply current. Its transient immunity (≤50µs rejection at 100mV overdrive), guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = 1.0V, and SOT23 package robustness meet automotive ECU requirements per ISO 16750.
What is the function of the SRT and SWT pins on MAX6751KA17+T?
SRT (pin 4) connects to a capacitor (CSRT) that sets the reset timeout period (tRP = 4.94×10⁶ × CSRT), ranging from 0.506ms to 9.487ms. SWT (pin 3) connects to a capacitor (CSWT) that sets the base watchdog timeout (tWD = 4.94×10⁶ × CSWT); WDS pin then scales it ×1 or ×128. Both capacitors must be low-leakage (<10nA), with ceramic types recommended.
