Product details
Overview
MAX6793TPSD0+ from Maxim Integrated is a dual-output, high-voltage linear regulator with integrated supervisory functions, designed for automotive power management. It delivers up to 150mA per output (OUT1 and fixed 5V OUT2), operates from 5V to 72V input, consumes only 68μA quiescent current, and features active-low open-drain RESET with 50ms fixed timeout - ideal for engine control units under load-dump conditions.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6793TPSD0+ datasheet, MAX6793TPSD0+ pinout, MAX6793TPSD0+ application, or MAX6793TPSD0+ equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-regulator architecture, 5V/3.3V preset output option (confirmed as 3.3V by "S" in suffix), HOLD-enabled self-holding circuitry, watchdog disable capability via WD-DIS, and AEC-Q100-compliant thermal performance up to +125°C.
Technical Context
The MAX6793TPSD0+ implements two independent LDO regulators: OUT1 is adjustable or preset (3.3V per "S" suffix), while OUT2 is fixed at 5V. Its supervisory block integrates a reset generator with 87.5% reset threshold (per "D0" suffix) and fixed 50ms timeout, plus a watchdog timer with externally adjustable timeout via CSWT and disable control via WD-DIS pin.
It supports reverse-battery protection via GATEP-driven pFET, includes PFI/PFO for programmable power-fail detection (1.231V internal reference), and uses dual enable logic (ENABLE1/ENABLE2) with HOLD for ignition-controlled latching - all specified across –40°C to +125°C with thermal shutdown at +165°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 5V to 72V - withstands automotive load-dump transients without external clamping |
| Quiescent Current | 68μA typical - enables always-on ECU modules with ultra-low standby power |
| Output Current | 150mA per output (OUT1 & OUT2) - sufficient for MCU core + peripheral rail in compact ECUs |
| Reset Threshold | 87.5% of OUT1 nominal (3.3V → 2.888V min) - ensures reliable brownout detection before MCU malfunction |
| Reset Timeout | 50ms fixed (D0 suffix) - provides adequate deassertion hold time for deterministic microcontroller boot |
| Dropout Voltage | 840mV typ at 100mA (dual mode) - maintains regulation down to VIN = 4.14V when VOUT1 = 3.3V |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - fully qualified for under-hood automotive environments |
Pinout & Package
MAX6793TPSD0+ is housed in a 20-pin, 5mm × 5mm thermally enhanced TQFN-EP package with exposed pad (EP) connected internally to GND for optimal heat dissipation (2.7W max).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1,2 | OUT1 | Main adjustable/preset regulator output (3.3V); requires ≥10μF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability |
| 3 | SET1 | Feedback node - tied to GND for 3.3V preset (S suffix), or used with resistor divider for adjustable output |
| 4 | PFO | Open-drain power-fail output - asserts low when PFI falls below 1.231V, enabling early shutdown signaling |
| 5 | CSWT | Watchdog timeout adjust - connect to OUT1 for fixed 280ms timeout or to capacitor for user-defined period |
| 6 | CSRT | Reset timeout adjust - connected to OUT1 for fixed 50ms timeout (D0 suffix) |
| 7 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference - must be low-impedance connection to PCB ground plane |
| 8 | RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output - drives µP reset pin; asserts during OUT1 undervoltage or watchdog fault |
| 9,10 | WDS1, WDS0 | Windowed watchdog select - unused on MAX6793 (not MAX6791/6792); leave unconnected or tie to defined logic level |
| 11 | WDI | Watchdog input - requires edge transition within timeout window; resets watchdog counter on valid toggle |
| 12 | HOLD | Active-low latch control - forces OUT1 ON even after ENABLE1 goes low, enabling ignition-key hold functionality |
| 13,14 | OUT2 | Fixed 5V secondary output - supplies CAN transceivers or sensors; requires ≥10μF capacitor to GND |
| 15 | ENABLE2 | Active-high enable for OUT2 - independently controls 5V rail; pulled down internally (0.5μA sink) |
| 16 | PFI | Power-fail comparator input - set threshold via resistor divider to monitor battery or pre-regulated supply |
| 17,18 | IN | Main input supply - bypass with 1μF ceramic capacitor to GND near pins for transient immunity |
| 19 | GATEP | pFET gate driver - drives external p-channel MOSFET for reverse-battery protection (no diode drop) |
| 20 | ENABLE1 | Active-high enable for OUT1 - controls main 3.3V rail; pulled down internally (0.5μA sink) |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Thermal & electrical GND - must be soldered to solid ground plane for thermal performance and noise reduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent regulators | 3.3V adjustable/preset OUT1 + fixed 5V OUT2 - powers mixed-voltage domains (MCU core + I/O) from single high-voltage source |
| HOLD-enabled self-holding | Eliminates need for external latch circuitry - simplifies ignition-controlled power sequencing in automotive body controllers |
| WD-DIS watchdog disable | Hardware-disable pin allows full watchdog bypass without firmware changes - critical for debug or safety-critical fail-safe modes |
| Reverse-battery protection via GATEP | Drives external pFET to block –12V/–24V faults - replaces lossy series diode, improving efficiency and thermal margin |
| AEC-Q100 qualified operation | Validated for automotive temperature range (–40°C to +125°C) and reliability - meets OEM requirements for under-hood deployment |
Applications
| Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) Camera Module |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output automotive LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6794TPSD0+ | Same pinout, identical electrical specs, but includes windowed watchdog (WDS0/WDS1 pins active) | Required where min/max watchdog windowing is mandated for ASIL-B/C diagnostics | Select MAX6794TPSD0+ only if windowed watchdog functionality is needed; MAX6793TPSD0+ is simpler and lower-cost for standard timeout use |
| TLV70733PDQNR | Single 3.3V output, 200mA, 5.5V max input, no watchdog or RESET - lacks high-voltage capability and supervisory features | Suitable only for low-voltage post-regulation (e.g., after DC-DC converter), not direct battery-fed applications | Use TLV70733PDQNR only in non-automotive, low-input-voltage designs where supervisory functions are handled elsewhere |
Compared with MAX6794TPSD0+, the MAX6793TPSD0+ omits windowed watchdog logic - reducing complexity and cost while retaining full reset, enable, HOLD, and reverse-protection functionality essential for most automotive ECU designs.

FAQ
What output voltage does MAX6793TPSD0+ deliver on OUT1?
The MAX6793TPSD0+ delivers a preset 3.3V on OUT1, confirmed by the "S" in its part number suffix per Maxim's ordering guide. SET1 must be tied to GND to activate this preset; connecting an external resistor divider enables adjustable output from 1.8V to 11V. OUT2 is fixed at 5V regardless of configuration.
Does MAX6793TPSD0+ support watchdog disable functionality?
Yes, MAX6793TPSD0+ supports hardware watchdog disable via the WD-DIS pin (Pin 9). Driving WD-DIS low disables the watchdog timer entirely, preventing unintended reset assertions - a critical feature for debug, safety validation, or firmware update modes where watchdog toggling is impractical.
What is the reset timeout period for MAX6793TPSD0+ and how is it set?
The MAX6793TPSD0+ has a fixed 50ms reset timeout period, indicated by the "D0" suffix. This is implemented by connecting CSRT (Pin 6) to OUT1 - no external capacitor is required. The timeout begins when OUT1 rises above its 87.5% reset threshold and holds RESET low for exactly 50ms before deassertion.
How does the HOLD function operate on MAX6793TPSD0+?
On MAX6793TPSD0+, the HOLD pin (Pin 12) is active-low. When driven low after ENABLE1 is asserted, it latches OUT1 ON - maintaining regulation even if ENABLE1 later goes low. Releasing HOLD (pulling high or disconnecting) shuts down OUT1. This enables ignition-key controlled self-holding without external components.
Is MAX6793TPSD0+ qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, MAX6793TPSD0+ is AEC-Q100 qualified and specified for –40°C to +125°C operation. Its 5V–72V input range, load-dump tolerance, thermal shutdown at +165°C, and robust supervisory features meet stringent automotive reliability and environmental requirements for under-hood and cabin-deployed ECUs.
