Product details
Overview
MAX6752KA29+T from Analog Devices is a window watchdog supervisory IC for microprocessor systems, featuring factory-trimmed 2.925V VCC reset threshold (±2%), capacitor-adjustable reset timeout (5.7–9.5ms), and dual-window watchdog with fast/slow fault detection (tWD1 = 11.4–152ms, tWD2 = 729–1214ms). It operates from 1.2V to 5.5V supply and delivers 3.7µA quiescent current, targeting automotive and medical power-up/brownout monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6752KA29+T datasheet, MAX6752KA29+T pinout, MAX6752KA29+T application, or MAX6752KA29+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100 qualification, SOT23-8 package, push-pull RESET output, windowed watchdog timing ratios (8×/16×/64×), and dual-voltage monitoring capability via external resistor divider on RESET IN.
Technical Context
The MAX6752KA29+T implements a min/max (window) watchdog architecture that asserts RESET when WDI falling edges occur either faster than tWD1 (fast fault) or slower than tWD2 (slow fault), with tWD1 selectable via SET0/SET1 pin strapping (8×, 16×, or 64× ratio relative to tWD2). Its reset function monitors VCC against a fixed 2.925V threshold and supports optional external voltage monitoring via RESET IN input with 1.235V internal reference.
Reset timeout (tRP) and slow watchdog period (tWD2) are independently set using external capacitors on SRT and SWT pins (tRP = 4.94×10⁶ × CSRT; tWD2 = 0.65×10⁹ × CSWT), enabling precise adaptation to processor boot time and software execution windows. The device guarantees valid RESET assertion down to VCC ≥ 1V and exhibits immunity to transients ≤ 50µs at 100mV overdrive.

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: RESET IN | Adjustable voltage monitor input | High-impedance node for external resistor-divider; sets secondary reset threshold (1.235V ref) |
| 2: SET0 | Watchdog window ratio control | Logic input selecting tWD1/tWD2 ratio: low/low = 8×, low/high = 16×, high/high = 64× |
| 3: SWT | Slow watchdog timing capacitor | Connects to GND via CSWT to set tWD2 (729–1214ms typical); open disables watchdog |
| 4: SRT | Reset timeout timing capacitor | Connects to GND via CSRT to set tRP (5.7–9.5ms typical); open disables reset timeout |
| 5: GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal circuits and external timing capacitors |
| 6: SET1 | Watchdog window ratio control | Logic input paired with SET0; high/low disables watchdog timer |
| 7: RESET | Push-pull active-low reset output | Drives µP reset pin directly; guaranteed valid for VCC ≥ 1V; no external pullup required |
| 8: VCC | Power supply input | Supplies internal circuitry and serves as primary monitored voltage (2.925V threshold) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6753KA29+T | Open-drain RESET output; identical timing, thresholds, and watchdog functionality | Requires external pullup for µP interface; better suited for level-shifting or wired-OR reset buses | Select when interfacing to mixed-voltage systems or sharing RESET line across multiple supervisors |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Fixed 3.3V reset threshold; standard (non-window) watchdog; 1.8µA ICC; SOT23-6 package | Lacks slow/fast fault discrimination; smaller footprint but no RESET IN pin for dual-rail monitoring | Choose for cost-sensitive, single-rail applications where window watchdog is unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6752KA29+T, MAX6753KA29+T offers identical supervision logic but requires external pullup due to open-drain output, while TPS3808G33DBVR reduces solution size and power but sacrifices windowed watchdog capability and dual-voltage monitoring-making MAX6752KA29+T optimal for safety-critical dual-rail automotive and medical designs.

FAQ
What is the factory-set reset threshold voltage for MAX6752KA29+T?
The MAX6752KA29+T has a factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold of 2.925V with ±2% tolerance over −40°C to +125°C. This value corresponds to the "29" suffix in the part number and is verified per Table 2 in the datasheet. The device does not support adjustable VCC threshold-only RESET IN can be configured externally using a resistor divider referenced to its 1.235V internal comparator.
How do I configure the window watchdog timing on MAX6752KA29+T?
Configure the window watchdog on MAX6752KA29+T by connecting a capacitor (CSWT) between pin 3 (SWT) and GND to set the slow watchdog period (tWD2), then strapping pins 2 (SET0) and 6 (SET1) to VCC or GND to select the tWD1/tWD2 ratio (8×, 16×, or 64×). For example, tying both SET0 and SET1 low yields tWD1 = tWD2/8. No external components are needed for ratio selection-only logic levels.
Does MAX6752KA29+T support dual-voltage monitoring?
Yes, MAX6752KA29+T supports dual-voltage monitoring: it monitors VCC against its fixed 2.925V threshold and simultaneously monitors an external voltage via the RESET IN pin using a 1.235V internal reference. Connect an external resistor divider to RESET IN to set a second threshold (e.g., for a 5V or 3.3V auxiliary rail), enabling independent fault detection on two power domains.
What is the maximum supply voltage rating for MAX6752KA29+T?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for MAX6752KA29+T is +6.0V applied between VCC and GND, per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. However, the recommended operating range is 1.2V to 5.5V. Operating above 5.5V risks permanent damage, and functionality is not guaranteed outside the specified 1.2–5.5V range-even if below the 6.0V absolute limit.
Is MAX6752KA29+T pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX6746–MAX6753 family?
MAX6752KA29+T shares the same 8-pin SOT23 package and pinout as MAX6753KA29+T and MAX6750/MAX6751 variants, but differs from MAX6746–MAX6749 which use MR instead of SET0/SET1. Pin compatibility exists only within the MAX6752/MAX6753 subgroup (SET0/SET1 interface) and does not extend to manual-reset or standard-watchdog variants-PCB layout must match the specific functional pin assignment.
