Product details
Overview
MAX6793TPSD1+T 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, watchdog timer, and HOLD functionality - deployed in engine control units and body electronics requiring robust brownout recovery.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6793TPSD1+T datasheet, MAX6793TPSD1+T pinout, MAX6793TPSD1+T application, or MAX6793TPSD1+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual 150mA outputs, 5V/adjustable OUT1 + fixed 5V OUT2 configuration, -40°C to +125°C AEC-Q100–compatible operation, and integrated reset/watchdog timing with capacitor-adjustable timeout periods.
Technical Context
The MAX6793TPSD1+T implements two independent LDO regulators: OUT1 is adjustable (1.8V–11V) or preset (5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V) via SET1, while OUT2 is fixed at 5V. Its supervisory block includes a windowed watchdog timer (with WDS0/WDS1 select), RESET assertion triggered by OUT1 drop below 92.5% of nominal, and capacitor-adjustable reset timeout via CSRT.
It integrates reverse-battery protection via GATEP-driven pFET, thermal shutdown (+165°C), short-circuit current limiting (200–240mA), and power-fail detection using PFI/PFO with 1.231V internal reference. ENABLE1 and ENABLE2 provide independent regulation control, and HOLD enables self-holding latch behavior without external components.
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 systems with ultra-low standby power draw |
| Output Current | 150mA per output (OUT1 & OUT2) - supports dual-rail microcontroller peripherals |
| Dropout Voltage | 840mV typ at 100mA (dual mode) - maintains regulation under high VIN–VOUT differential |
| Reset Threshold | 92.5% of OUT1 nominal voltage - ensures reliable μP reset before functional undervoltage |
| Watchdog Timeout | 280ms min fixed or capacitor-adjustable - configurable fault-detection window for safety-critical firmware |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +125°C - fully specified for under-hood automotive environments |
Pinout & Package
MAX6793TPSD1+T is housed in a thermally enhanced 20-pin TQFN-EP package (5mm × 5mm, exposed pad), rated for up to 2.7W continuous dissipation and compatible with AEC-Q100 automotive qualification requirements.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| OUT1 | Regulator 1 Output | Adjustable (1.8V–11V) or preset (5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V); max 150mA; requires ≥10μF output capacitance |
| SET1 | Feedback Input | Grounded for preset voltage; connected to resistive divider for adjustable output |
| PFO | Power-Fail Comparator Output | Active-low open-drain signal asserting when PFI falls below 1.231V threshold |
| CSWT | Watchdog Timeout Adjust | Connected to OUT1 for fixed 280ms timeout; capacitor-to-GND enables user-defined period |
| CSRT | Reset Timeout Adjust | Connected to OUT1 for fixed timeout (35μs/3.125ms/12.5ms/50ms/200ms); capacitor enables scaling |
| RESET | Supervisory Reset Output | Active-low open-drain; asserts during OUT1 undervoltage or watchdog fault; holds low for full timeout |
| WDI | Watchdog Input | Edge-sensitive input - transition required within timeout window to prevent reset assertion |
| HOLD | Regulator Hold Control | Active-low; latches regulator ON after enable, enabling ignition-key–driven self-hold circuits |
| ENABLE1 / ENABLE2 | Independent Enable Inputs | Active-high; ENABLE1 controls OUT1, ENABLE2 controls fixed 5V OUT2 - each internally pulled down |
| GATEP | pFET Gate Driver | Drives external p-channel MOSFET for reverse-battery protection without series diode loss |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent regulators | OUT1 (adjustable/preset) + fixed 5V OUT2 - eliminates need for second discrete LDO in dual-rail systems |
| Capacitor-adjustable timing | CSRT and CSWT pins support precise, board-level tuning of reset and watchdog timeouts without firmware changes |
| Integrated reverse-battery protection | GATEP output drives external pFET - removes 0.3–0.7V diode drop, improving efficiency and thermal performance |
| Self-holding latch function | HOLD input enables ignition-switch–initiated power sequencing without external latch IC or discrete logic |
| AEC-Q100 qualified operation | Specified across -40°C to +125°C ambient - validated for direct integration into ECU, ADAS, and body control modules |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output automotive LDO applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6794TPSD1+T | Same pinout, identical dual-output architecture, but includes windowed watchdog (WDS0/WDS1) - MAX6793 uses WD-DIS instead | Supports min/max watchdog fault detection; MAX6793 offers simpler watchdog disable via WD-DIS pin | Select MAX6794TPSD1+T if windowed watchdog is required; MAX6793TPSD1+T preferred for cost-sensitive designs needing basic watchdog disable |
| TLE42744G V33 | Single 3.3V output (300mA), no dual output or adjustable OUT1; lacks CSRT/CSWT timing adjust; different pinout and enable logic | Targeted at single-rail MCU supply; no PFI, no HOLD, no reverse-battery driver; lower integration level | Choose TLE42744G V33 only for legacy 3.3V-only systems lacking supervision complexity; not drop-in or functionally equivalent |
Compared with MAX6794TPSD1+T and TLE42744G V33, MAX6793TPSD1+T uniquely balances dual-rail flexibility, capacitor-adjustable supervision timing, and reverse-battery protection in one AEC-Q100–qualified package - making it optimal for new automotive designs requiring compact, feature-rich power management.

FAQ
What output voltage options does the MAX6793TPSD1+T support?
The MAX6793TPSD1+T supports preset OUT1 voltages of 5.0V, 3.3V, 2.5V, or 1.8V (selected by grounding SET1), and an adjustable range from 1.8V to 11V using an external resistive divider. Its OUT2 output is fixed at 5.0V. These configurations are confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table and Pin Description section of the MAX6793TPSD1+T datasheet.
Does the MAX6793TPSD1+T include reverse-battery protection?
Yes, the MAX6793TPSD1+T includes integrated reverse-battery protection via its GATEP pin, which drives the gate of an external p-channel MOSFET. This eliminates the need for a series Schottky diode, reducing voltage drop and power loss. The GATEP clamp voltage is specified at 13.8V–18.8V, and drive capability is validated across the full -40°C to +125°C operating range.
How is the reset timeout period configured on the MAX6793TPSD1+T?
The MAX6793TPSD1+T reset timeout period is configured using the CSRT pin: connecting CSRT to OUT1 selects one of five factory-fixed values (35μs, 3.125ms, 12.5ms, 50ms, or 200ms), while connecting a capacitor from CSRT to GND scales the timeout linearly - e.g., 0.1μF yields ~50ms, 1μF yields ~500ms. This behavior is verified in the Electrical Characteristics and Typical Operating Characteristics sections.
Is the MAX6793TPSD1+T AEC-Q100 qualified?
Yes, the MAX6793TPSD1+T is AEC-Q100 qualified - explicitly stated in the Benefits and Features section and reinforced by its -40°C to +125°C operating temperature specification, thermal shutdown at +165°C, and qualification testing across automotive stress conditions. The /V+ suffix in related variants (e.g., MAX6795TPSD2/V+) confirms automotive qualification, and MAX6793TPSD1+T shares the same package, process, and test flow.
What is the function of the HOLD pin on the MAX6793TPSD1+T?
The HOLD pin on the MAX6793TPSD1+T is an active-low input that enables self-holding behavior: once ENABLE1 turns on OUT1, pulling HOLD low latches the regulator ON even if ENABLE1 is later deasserted. Releasing HOLD (high or floating) shuts down OUT1. This allows ignition-key–initiated power sequencing without external latch circuitry - a design feature confirmed in the Detailed Description and Functional Diagram sections.
