Product details
Overview
MAX6793TPTD4+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual-output, ultra-low-quiescent-current linear regulator with integrated supervisory functions for automotive systems. It delivers up to 150mA per output (OUT1/OUT2), operates from 5V to 72V input, features fixed 5V OUT2 and adjustable/fixed OUT1 (e.g., 5V or 3.3V), and includes RESET, watchdog, HOLD, and power-fail comparator functions. Used in engine control units and body electronics where load-dump resilience and micropower operation are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6793TPTD4+T datasheet, MAX6793TPTD4+T pinout, MAX6793TPTD4+T application, or MAX6793TPTD4+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual 150mA outputs, 68μA quiescent current, 20-pin TQFN-EP package, 200ms reset timeout (D4 variant), and AEC-Q100-compatibility context - all validated for -40°C to +125°C automotive environments.
Technical Context
The MAX6793TPTD4+T implements two independent LDO regulators: OUT1 supports fixed (5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V) or adjustable (1.8V–11V) output via SET1 feedback; OUT2 is fixed at 5V. Its supervisory block integrates a push-pull/open-drain RESET output with 92.5% (L/M) or 87.5% (T/S/Z/Y/W/V) threshold tracking relative to OUT1, and a capacitor-adjustable or internally fixed 200ms reset timeout (D4).
It features a programmable watchdog timer with fixed 280ms minimum timeout (CSWT = OUT1), disable capability via WD-DIS, and dual enable inputs (ENABLE1/ENABLE2) plus HOLD for self-holding circuit implementation. Thermal shutdown triggers at +165°C with 20°C hysteresis, and reverse-battery protection is enabled via GATEP-driven pFET.

Pinout & Package
MAX6793TPTD4+T is housed in a 20-pin, 5mm × 5mm thermally enhanced TQFN-EP package with exposed pad (EP) connected internally to GND. The EP must be soldered to the PCB ground plane for optimal thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1,2 | OUT1 | Main regulator output (fixed or adjustable); supplies up to 150mA; requires ≥10μF ceramic output capacitor. |
| 3 | SET1 | Feedback node for OUT1 voltage setting; grounded for preset outputs; connected to resistive divider for adjustable mode. |
| 4 | PFO | Active-low open-drain power-fail output; asserts when PFI falls below 1.231V threshold. |
| 5 | CSWT | Watchdog timeout adjust input; tied to OUT1 for fixed 280ms timeout (as used in MAX6793TPTD4+T). |
| 6 | CSRT | Reset timeout adjust input; tied to OUT1 for fixed 200ms timeout (D4 variant). |
| 7 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference; connects to EP for thermal conduction. |
| 8 | RESET | Active-low reset output (push-pull); tracks OUT1 voltage and holds low for 200ms after recovery. |
| 9,10 | WDS1, WDS0 | Watchdog window ratio select inputs; unused in MAX6793 (not windowed watchdog variant). |
| 11 | WDI | Watchdog input; requires edge transition within timeout period to prevent RESET assertion. |
| 12 | HOLD | Active-low hold input; sustains OUT1/OUT2 ON even after ENABLE1/ENABLE2 goes low. |
| 13,14 | OUT2 | Fixed 5V secondary output; supplies up to 150mA; requires ≥10μF output capacitor. |
| 15 | ENABLE2 | Active-high enable for OUT2; internally pulled down; controls secondary regulator independently. |
| 16 | PFI | Power-fail comparator input; sets custom brownout threshold via external resistor divider referenced to 1.231V. |
| 17,18 | IN | Main input supply pins; bypassed with ≥1μF capacitor to GND for stability. |
| 19 | GATEP | pFET gate drive output; enables reverse-battery protection without external diodes. |
| 20 | ENABLE1 | Active-high enable for OUT1; internally pulled down; primary ON/OFF control for main regulator. |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Internally connected to GND; mandatory thermal connection to PCB ground plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual 150mA LDOs | Independent regulation of two rails (e.g., 5V MCU core + 3.3V I/O) with shared 5V–72V input tolerance. |
| 68μA Quiescent Current | Enables >10-year battery standby in always-on automotive modules (e.g., telematics, alarm systems). |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6794TPTD4+T | Dual-output variant with identical pinout, specs, and D4 reset timeout; differs only in watchdog architecture (non-windowed, like MAX6793). | Same functional scope; suitable for identical designs requiring dual 150mA outputs and 200ms reset. | Select MAX6794TPTD4+T if board layout re-use is required and no windowed watchdog is needed. |
| TPS7B8750QKVURQ1 | Single-output 500mA LDO (vs. dual 150mA); 60μA IQ; 3V–40V input; no integrated watchdog or HOLD function. | Lacks supervisory features - requires external reset IC and latch circuit for equivalent functionality. | Choose only if higher current per rail is critical and external supervision can be accommodated. |
Compared with MAX6794TPTD4+T, the MAX6793TPTD4+T offers identical dual-LDO performance and pin compatibility but targets distinct internal revision control; versus TPS7B8750QKVURQ1, it trades raw current capacity for integrated supervision and dual-rail flexibility - reducing BOM count by up to three discrete components.

FAQ
What output voltage options does the MAX6793TPTD4+T support?
The MAX6793TPTD4+T supports fixed OUT2 at 5V and configurable OUT1 at 5V, 3.3V, 2.5V, or 1.8V (selected by grounding SET1), or adjustable from 1.8V to 11V using an external resistor divider. The "D4" suffix confirms 200ms reset timeout, not output voltage - output configuration is determined by the third character in the part number (e.g., "T" = 3.3V, "L" = 5V). MAX6793TPTD4+T is a 5V/5V dual-output variant.
Does the MAX6793TPTD4+T include reverse-battery protection?
Yes, the MAX6793TPTD4+T includes integrated reverse-battery protection via its GATEP pin, which drives the gate of an external p-channel MOSFET to block reverse current flow. This eliminates the need for a series Schottky diode, reducing voltage drop and power loss. The GATEP output is designed to operate with standard automotive pFETs and is validated for -14V reverse input conditions.
How is the 200ms reset timeout implemented in the MAX6793TPTD4+T?
The 200ms reset timeout (D4) in the MAX6793TPTD4+T is internally fixed and activated by connecting the CSRT pin to OUT1. No external capacitor is required. This timeout defines the duration RESET remains low after OUT1 recovers above its threshold (e.g., 4.625V for 5V output), ensuring reliable microprocessor initialization. The D4 option is factory-configured and cannot be altered in-circuit.
Can the watchdog timer in the MAX6793TPTD4+T be disabled?
Yes, the watchdog timer in the MAX6793TPTD4+T can be disabled using the WD-DIS input: driving WD-DIS low disables the watchdog function entirely, preventing RESET assertion due to WDI timeout. When WD-DIS is high or connected to OUT1, the watchdog remains active. This allows runtime control - for example, disabling during firmware update or debug sessions while retaining full supervision during normal operation. MAX6793TPTD4+T does not use WDS0/WDS1 for watchdog control (those pins are NC).
Is the MAX6793TPTD4+T qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the MAX6793TPTD4+T is AEC-Q100 qualified and specified for operation from -40°C to +125°C. While the base MAX6793TPTD4+T part number does not carry the "/V" suffix (which denotes formal AEC-Q100 certification per specific test reports), its electrical specifications, packaging, and characterization align with automotive requirements - and it is widely deployed in production automotive modules. For formal AEC-Q100 documentation, the MAX6793TPLD2/V+ variant is available.
