Product details
Overview
The MAX6756UKZD3 from Maxim Integrated is a low-power, single-voltage window detector IC that monitors 2.5V system supplies for undervoltage and overvoltage conditions with ±15% factory-trimmed thresholds, 100ms minimum reset timeout, and active-low open-drain RESET output. It features manual reset input, operates from 1.0V to 6.0V supply, consumes only 13µA typical current, and is rated for -40°C to +125°C industrial/automotive environments.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6756UKZD3 datasheet, MAX6756UKZD3 pinout, MAX6756UKZD3 application, or MAX6756UKZD3 equivalent, key selection considerations include its SOT23-5 package, fixed 2.5V nominal monitoring point (Z suffix), ±15% window set via SET pin biasing, 100ms D3 timeout option, and compatibility with microprocessor power-rail supervision in space-constrained embedded systems.
Technical Context
The MAX6756UKZD3 implements dual internal comparators referenced to a precision bandgap, comparing VCC against UVTH = 2.125V (−15%) and OVTH = 2.875V (+15%) at 25°C. Its SET pin accepts three bias states-GND (±5%), VCC (±10%), or VCC/2 (±15%)-to configure hysteresis without external components.
It integrates a 100ms minimum timeout monostable circuit triggered on UV/OV assertion, with propagation delay of 20µs (typ) and guaranteed correct output state down to VCC = 1.0V. The open-drain RESET output supports wired-OR configurations and level-shifting across voltage domains.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
MAX6756UKZD3 is housed in a 5-pin SOT23-5 package with exposed pad (not electrically connected), optimized for high-density PCB layouts and thermal performance in compact power management subsystems.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6755UKZD3 | Same 2.5V threshold and ±15% window, but features active-high push-pull RESET output instead of open-drain | Requires direct connection to processor reset pin without external pullup; incompatible with wired-OR reset buses | Select when system reset logic expects active-high assertion and no shared reset bus exists |
| TLV809K25DBZR | Fixed 2.5V undervoltage detector only (no overvoltage detection); 3.5% threshold accuracy vs. ±15% window; no SET pin or manual reset | Provides basic brownout protection only; cannot detect overvoltage faults or support user-initiated reset | Select only if overvoltage monitoring and MR functionality are not required and tighter UV threshold tolerance is preferred |
Compared with MAX6755UKZD3 and TLV809K25DBZR, the MAX6756UKZD3 uniquely delivers combined UV/OV window detection with configurable hysteresis, manual reset capability, and open-drain flexibility-making it the only choice for systems requiring comprehensive 2.5V rail integrity assurance with interface adaptability.

FAQ
What is the exact undervoltage and overvoltage threshold for MAX6756UKZD3 at 25°C?
The MAX6756UKZD3 has a nominal 2.5V VCC threshold with ±15% window: UVTH = 2.125V (−15%) and OVTH = 2.875V (+15%) at 25°C. These values are factory-trimmed and specified over −40°C to +125°C with ±0.7% hysteresis. The Z suffix confirms 2.5V nominal, and D3 indicates 100ms minimum timeout.
How is the ±15% window configured on MAX6756UKZD3?
The ±15% window on MAX6756UKZD3 is set by biasing the SET pin to VCC/2 using a resistor divider. Connecting SET directly to GND selects ±5%, to VCC selects ±10%, and to VCC/2 selects ±15%. No external capacitors or trimming components are required-the internal reference handles all calibration.
Does MAX6756UKZD3 support operation below 1.4V VCC?
Yes-MAX6756UKZD3 guarantees correct RESET output logic state for VCC ≥ 1.0V, though voltage monitoring functionality requires VCC ≥ 1.4V per datasheet Note 2. This allows safe reset assertion during deep brownout conditions where VCC drops below 1.4V but remains above 1.0V.
What is the function of the MR pin on MAX6756UKZD3?
The MR pin on MAX6756UKZD3 is an active-low manual reset input with internal 26kΩ pullup to VCC. Driving MR low asserts the open-drain RESET output immediately. After MR returns high, RESET remains asserted for the full 100ms timeout period (D3 option), ensuring deterministic system reset timing independent of supply behavior.
Can MAX6756UKZD3 be used in automotive applications?
Yes-MAX6756UKZD3 is specified for −40°C to +125°C operation and offered in lead-free SOT23-5 packaging. While not AEC-Q200 certified out-of-box, its extended temperature rating, 100ms timeout, and 1.0V operational floor make it suitable for non-safety-critical automotive subsystems such as infotainment power supervision and body control module auxiliary rails.
