Product details
Overview
The MAX6793TPTD0+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 with 35μs delay - ideal for engine control units under load-dump conditions.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6793TPTD0+T datasheet, MAX6793TPTD0+T pinout, MAX6793TPTD0+T application, or MAX6793TPTD0+T equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual-enable architecture (ENABLE1/ENABLE2), HOLD input for self-holding circuits, capacitor-adjustable reset timeout (CSRT), watchdog disable capability (WD-DIS), and AEC-Q100-qualified thermal performance up to +125°C.
Technical Context
The MAX6793TPTD0+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 reset circuit triggered when OUT1 drops below 92.5% of nominal voltage and a watchdog timer with fixed 280ms timeout (CSWT = OUT1) or capacitor-adjustable period.
It supports reverse-battery protection via GATEP-driven pFET, integrates thermal/short-circuit/output overvoltage protection, and uses internal 2µA pull-up on HOLD and 0.5µA pulldown on ENABLE1/ENABLE2 - enabling robust ignition-controlled power sequencing without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 5V to 72V - withstands automotive load-dump transients without shutdown |
| Quiescent Current | 68μA typical - enables always-on functionality in battery-sensitive systems |
| Output Current | 150mA per output (OUT1 & OUT2) - sufficient for MCU core + peripheral rail in ECUs |
| Dropout Voltage | 840mV typ at 100mA (dual) - maintains regulation during cold-crank (6V battery) |
| Reset Threshold | 92.5% of OUT1 nominal - ensures deterministic µP reset before brownout |
| Reset Timeout | 35μs fixed (D0 option) - fast recovery after transient dips without software delay |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +125°C - fully specified for under-hood automotive environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-pin TQFN-EP (5mm × 5mm, exposed pad), thermally enhanced for 2.7W dissipation at +70°C ambient.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1,2 | OUT1 | Main adjustable/fixed regulator output (150mA); requires ≥10μF ceramic bypass |
| 3 | SET1 | Feedback node for OUT1 - GND for preset voltages; resistive divider for 1.8V–11V adjustment |
| 4 | PFO | Open-drain power-fail output - asserts low when PFI < 1.231V (configurable threshold) |
| 5 | CSWT | Watchdog timeout adjust - connect to OUT1 for fixed 280ms timeout or capacitor to GND for scaling |
| 6 | CSRT | Reset timeout adjust - tied to OUT1 for D0 (35μs) in MAX6793TPTD0+T |
| 7 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference; connects to exposed pad for thermal conduction |
| 8 | RESET | Active-low open-drain reset - drives µP reset pin; held low for full timeout after fault clears |
| 11 | WDI | Watchdog input - rising/falling edge must occur within timeout window to prevent reset assertion |
| 12 | HOLD | Active-low hold enable - forces OUT1 ON even if ENABLE1 goes low; internal 2µA pull-up to OUT1 |
| 13,14 | OUT2 | Fixed 5V auxiliary output (150mA); independent of OUT1 regulation status |
| 15 | ENABLE2 | Active-high enable for OUT2 - internal 0.5µA pulldown allows direct microcontroller GPIO control |
| 16 | PFI | Power-fail comparator input - set threshold via resistor divider to monitor battery or pre-regulated rail |
| 17,18 | IN | Main input supply pins - bypass with 1μF ceramic to GND near package |
| 19 | GATEP | pFET gate driver - controls external high-side p-channel MOSFET for reverse-battery protection |
| 20 | ENABLE1 | Active-high enable for OUT1 - internal 0.5µA pulldown enables simple ignition-switch interface |
| - | WD-DIS | Watchdog disable input - drive low to disable watchdog function entirely (pin 10 on MAX6793) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent enable inputs | ENABLE1 controls OUT1; ENABLE2 controls OUT2 - enables flexible power sequencing in multi-rail systems |
| Self-holding circuit support | HOLD input latches OUT1 ON after initial enable - eliminates need for external latch or microcontroller polling |
| Capacitor-adjustable timing | CSRT and CSWT accept external capacitors to scale reset/watchdog timeouts across 5 decades (35μs–260ms) |
| Reverse-battery protection driver | GATEP provides controlled gate drive for external pFET - replaces lossy series diode with <100mΩ RDS(on) solution |
| Integrated power-fail detection | PFI/PFO pair enables early warning of battery sag or supply collapse - supports graceful firmware shutdown |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6794TPTD0+T | Dual-output like MAX6793TPTD0+T but includes windowed watchdog (WDS0/WDS1) instead of WD-DIS | Suitable where min/max watchdog fault detection is required (e.g., ASIL-B diagnostics), not for simple disable use cases | Select MAX6794TPTD0+T only if windowed watchdog logic is needed; MAX6793TPTD0+T is preferred when watchdog disable simplicity is critical |
| TPS7B8750QKVURQ1 | Single-output 500mA LDO with 35μA IQ, no dual rail or WD-DIS; reset threshold fixed at 92% of VOUT | Lacks OUT2 and HOLD functionality - requires external circuitry for self-holding or auxiliary rail generation | Choose TPS7B8750QKVURQ1 only for cost-sensitive single-rail designs where dual output and HOLD are unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6794TPTD0+T and TPS7B8750QKVURQ1, the MAX6793TPTD0+T uniquely combines dual independent outputs, WD-DIS for unconditional watchdog disable, and HOLD-based latching - making it optimal for ignition-controlled modules requiring minimal external components and deterministic reset behavior.

FAQ
What output voltage options does the MAX6793TPTD0+T support?
The MAX6793TPTD0+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. OUT2 is fixed at 5.0V. The "D0" suffix in MAX6793TPTD0+T indicates the reset timeout is factory-set to 35μs, not a voltage option.
How does the HOLD function work in the MAX6793TPTD0+T?
In the MAX6793TPTD0+T, driving HOLD low after ENABLE1 is asserted latches OUT1 ON permanently - even if ENABLE1 later goes low. Releasing HOLD (letting it float or pulling high) shuts down OUT1. This enables self-holding power control without external latches or microcontroller intervention, critical for ignition-switched automotive modules.
Can the watchdog timer be completely disabled on the MAX6793TPTD0+T?
Yes - the MAX6793TPTD0+T includes a dedicated WD-DIS pin (Pin 10). Driving WD-DIS low disables the watchdog timer entirely, preventing any WDI-related reset assertions. This differs from MAX6791/MAX6792 which require WDS0/WDS1 logic combinations for disable, making MAX6793TPTD0+T simpler for applications needing unconditional watchdog disable.
What is the purpose of the GATEP pin on the MAX6793TPTD0+T?
The GATEP pin on the MAX6793TPTD0+T drives the gate of an external p-channel MOSFET to implement reverse-battery protection. When battery polarity is reversed, GATEP turns off the pFET, blocking current flow and protecting downstream circuitry - eliminating the power loss and heat associated with traditional series diodes.
Is the MAX6793TPTD0+T qualified for automotive use?
Yes - the MAX6793TPTD0+T is manufactured in an AEC-Q100-qualified process and specified for -40°C to +125°C operation. While the base part number does not carry "/V", its datasheet confirms full automotive qualification including thermal, ESD, and reliability testing per AEC-Q100 Rev H, making it suitable for under-hood and safety-critical applications.
