Product details
Overview
MAX6793TPMD3+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual-output, ultra-low-quiescent-current linear regulator for automotive systems, featuring 5V to 72V input range, 150mA per output, 68μA quiescent current, and integrated reset/watchdog supervision. It delivers fixed 5V on OUT2 and adjustable or preset (3.3V/2.5V/1.8V/5V) output on OUT1, with thermal/short-circuit protection and AEC-Q100-compliant operation from –40°C to +125°C.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6793TPMD3+T datasheet, MAX6793TPMD3+T pinout, MAX6793TPMD3+T application, or MAX6793TPMD3+T equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-rail voltage sequencing, capacitor-adjustable 50ms reset timeout (D3), 87.5% reset threshold for OUT1, watchdog disable capability via WD-DIS, and TQFN-20EP package compatibility with high-temperature under-hood environments.
Technical Context
The MAX6793TPMD3+T implements two independent LDO regulators: OUT1 (adjustable or preset) and fixed 5V OUT2, each with dedicated enable (ENABLE1/ENABLE2) and shared HOLD for self-holding control. Its supervisory block includes a push-pull or open-drain RESET output triggered by OUT1 voltage drop below 87.5% of nominal, plus a watchdog timer with fixed 280ms timeout or capacitor-adjustable period.
It integrates reverse-battery protection via GATEP-driven pFET, power-fail detection (PFI/PFO) with 1.231V internal reference, and thermal shutdown at +165°C with 20°C hysteresis. All functions operate across –40°C to +125°C and support AEC-Q100 stress testing per automotive qualification requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

Pinout & Package
MAX6793TPMD3+T is housed in a 20-pin thermally enhanced TQFN package (5mm × 5mm, exposed pad). The EP pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for optimal thermal performance and electrical stability.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OUT1 (Pins 1,2) | Primary regulator output | Delivers preset (3.3V/2.5V/1.8V/5V) or adjustable (1.8V–11V) voltage; requires ≥10μF output capacitor |
| SET1 (Pin 3) | Feedback input | Grounded for preset output; connected to resistive divider for adjustable VOUT1 |
| PFO (Pin 4) | Power-fail comparator output | Open-drain active-low signal asserting when PFI < 1.231V; used for early battery low warning |
| CSWT (Pin 5) | Watchdog timeout adjust | Connected to OUT1 for fixed 280ms timeout; capacitor-to-GND enables adjustable period |
| CSRT (Pin 6) | Reset timeout adjust | Connected to OUT1 for fixed 50ms (D3) timeout; capacitor-to-GND enables other durations |
| GND (Pin 7) | Ground reference | Common return for all analog/digital circuits; tied to EP pad for thermal conduction |
| RESET (Pin 8) | Supervisory reset output | Push-pull or open-drain active-low signal synchronized to OUT1 undervoltage or watchdog fault |
| WDI (Pin 11) | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive input requiring toggle within timeout window to prevent RESET assertion |
| HOLD (Pin 12) | Regulator hold control | Active-low input enabling self-holding circuit: forces OUT1 ON even after ENABLE1 goes low |
| OUT2 (Pins 13,14) | Secondary regulator output | Fixed 5V output; independent of OUT1; requires ≥10μF output capacitor |
| ENABLE2 (Pin 15) | OUT2 enable input | Active-high logic input controlling only OUT2; internally pulled down (0.5μA sink) |
| PFI (Pin 16) | Power-fail comparator input | Non-inverting input referenced to 1.231V; used with resistor divider to set custom brownout threshold |
| IN (Pins 17,18) | Main supply input | Accepts 5V–72V; bypassed with ≥1μF capacitor to GND for stability |
| GATEP (Pin 19) | pFET gate driver | Drives external p-channel MOSFET for reverse-battery protection; eliminates series diode loss |
| ENABLE1 (Pin 20) | OUT1 enable input | Active-high logic input controlling only OUT1; internally pulled down (0.5μA sink) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output automotive regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6794TPMD3+T | Dual-output like MAX6793TPMD3+T but includes windowed watchdog (min/max timeout) instead of standard watchdog | Required where watchdog fault classification (fast vs. slow timeout violation) is needed for diagnostic logging | Select MAX6794TPMD3+T only if windowed watchdog behavior is explicitly required; otherwise MAX6793TPMD3+T offers simpler implementation |
| TLV70733PDQNR | Single-output 3.3V LDO (200mA), no supervision, 5.5V max input, no AEC-Q100 rating | Limited to low-voltage, non-automotive applications without reset/watchdog or high-voltage tolerance | Not suitable as direct alternative; only consider for cost-sensitive, non-automotive designs with VIN < 5.5V and no supervision needs |
Compared with MAX6794TPMD3+T, the MAX6793TPMD3+T omits windowed watchdog logic-reducing complexity and BOM count-while retaining identical dual-rail regulation, 50ms reset timeout, and AEC-Q100 qualification. TLV70733PDQNR lacks high-voltage capability, supervision, and automotive qualification, making it unsuitable for replacement in automotive contexts.

FAQ
What output voltage options does the MAX6793TPMD3+T support?
The MAX6793TPMD3+T supports preset output voltages of 5V, 3.3V, 2.5V, or 1.8V on OUT1, and a fixed 5V on OUT2. OUT1 can also be adjusted from 1.8V to 11V using an external resistive divider connected to SET1. The "M" in MAX6793TPMD3+T denotes a 3.3V preset for OUT1, confirmed by Maxim's ordering guide and electrical characteristics tables.
How is the 50ms reset timeout implemented in the MAX6793TPMD3+T?
The MAX6793TPMD3+T achieves its 50ms reset timeout (D3 option) by connecting CSRT to OUT1, selecting the internally fixed duration. This is verified in the Electrical Characteristics table (tRP = 35/50/65ms for D0/D3/D4), and confirmed in the Pin Description where CSRT is defined as the reset timeout adjust input with OUT1 connection enabling fixed timing.
Does the MAX6793TPMD3+T include reverse-battery protection?
Yes, the MAX6793TPMD3+T includes reverse-battery protection via the GATEP pin, which drives the gate of an external p-channel MOSFET to block reverse current. This eliminates the need for series Schottky diodes, reducing voltage drop and power loss-critical for 12V/24V automotive systems where efficiency and thermal management are essential.
What is the function of the WD-DIS pin on the MAX6793TPMD3+T?
The WD-DIS pin on the MAX6793TPMD3+T provides hardware-level watchdog disable: driving WD-DIS low disables the watchdog timer entirely, preventing RESET assertion regardless of WDI state. This enables safe debug modes or fail-safe states without firmware intervention, and is distinct from the WDS0/WDS1 configuration used in MAX6791/MAX6792 windowed variants.
Is the MAX6793TPMD3+T AEC-Q100 qualified?
Yes, the MAX6793TPMD3+T is AEC-Q100 qualified, as confirmed by Maxim's ordering information listing "/V" suffix variants (e.g., MAX6795TPLD2/V+) and explicit mention in the Benefits and Features section. While MAX6793TPMD3+T itself carries the "+" (lead-free) and "T" (tape-and-reel) suffixes, its underlying die and package meet AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements for automotive use from –40°C to +125°C.
