Product details
Overview
MAX6793TPYD3+ 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 OUT2), supports 5V to 72V input range, features 68μA quiescent current, and includes active-low RESET with 50ms fixed timeout (D3). It operates in -40°C to +125°C and is used in engine control units and body electronics where load-dump resilience and low-power supervision are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6793TPYD3+ datasheet, MAX6793TPYD3+ pinout, MAX6793TPYD3+ application, or MAX6793TPYD3+ equivalent, key selection considerations include its dual 5V/5V fixed output configuration, HOLD-enabled self-holding circuitry, watchdog disable capability via WD-DIS, and AEC-Q100-compliant thermal robustness in the 20-pin TQFN package.
Technical Context
The MAX6793TPYD3+ implements two independent LDO regulators: OUT1 is adjustable (1.8V–11V) or preset (5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V), while OUT2 is fixed at 5V. Its supervisory block integrates a reset generator with 92.5% reset threshold relative to OUT1 and a capacitor-adjustable or fixed 50ms reset timeout (CSRT = D3).
It features a standard watchdog timer (not windowed) with 280ms minimum timeout, disableable via WD-DIS pin, and includes reverse-battery protection drive (GATEP), power-fail comparator (PFI/PFO), and HOLD-based latching control - all operating across the full -40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
The MAX6793TPYD3+ is housed in a 20-pin, 5mm × 5mm thermally enhanced TQFN package with exposed pad (EP) connected to GND for optimal heat transfer. Pin count and layout match the MAX6791–MAX6796 family; no lead-free or RoHS exemptions apply.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 - OUT1 | Regulator 1 Output | Fixed 5V or adjustable (1.8V–11V); supplies up to 150mA; requires ≥10μF output capacitor |
| 3 - SET1 | Feedback Input | Grounded for preset output; connected to resistor divider for adjustable VOUT1 |
| 4 - PFO | Power-Fail Output | Open-drain, active-low signal asserting when PFI < 1.231V - enables early shutdown warning |
| 5 - CSWT | Watchdog Timeout Adjust | Connected to OUT1 for fixed 280ms timeout; capacitor-to-GND enables adjustment |
| 6 - CSRT | Reset Timeout Adjust | Connected to OUT1 for fixed 50ms (D3) timeout; capacitor-to-GND enables other durations |
| 7 - GND | Ground Reference | Primary analog/digital return; EP must be soldered to PCB ground plane |
| 8 - RESET | Supervisory Reset Output | Active-low, push-pull or open-drain; asserts during OUT1 undervoltage or watchdog fault |
| 9 - WDS1 | Watchdog Logic Select | Unused in MAX6793 (not windowed); tied high or low per design - no functional impact |

| 13, 14 - OUT2 | Regulator 2 Output | Fixed 5V output; supplies up to 150mA; requires ≥10μF output capacitor |
| 15 - ENABLE2 | Enable Input 2 | Active-high; controls OUT2 independently; internally pulled down (0.5μA) |
| 16 - PFI | Power-Fail Input | Non-inverting comparator input; threshold set by external resistor divider referenced to 1.231V |
| 17, 18 - IN | Main Input Supply | 5V–72V input; bypassed with ≥1μF capacitor to GND for stability |
| 19 - GATEP | pFET Gate Driver | Drives external p-channel MOSFET for reverse-battery protection - eliminates series diode loss |
| 20 - ENABLE1 | Enable Input 1 | Active-high; controls OUT1; internally pulled down (0.5μA); works with HOLD for ignition sequencing |
| - WD-DIS | Watchdog Disable | Active-low pin; drives low to disable watchdog - simplifies debug and safe boot modes |
Key Features

Use Value: WD-DIS pin allows temporary watchdog disable during firmware update - preventing spurious resets during critical flash operations. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6794TPYD3+ | Same pinout, identical electrical specs, but includes windowed watchdog (WDS0/WDS1 pins active) | Required only if windowed watchdog timing (min/max fault detection) is needed for functional safety monitoring | Select MAX6794TPYD3+ only when ISO 26262 ASIL-C/D diagnostics mandate windowed watchdog behavior |
| TLV70733PDQNR | Single 3.3V output, 200mA, 5.5V max input, no supervision - lacks RESET, watchdog, HOLD, or high-voltage capability | Suitable only for low-voltage, non-automotive, non-safety-critical applications with simple enable control | Not a functional substitute; only consider for cost-sensitive consumer designs with VIN < 6V and no supervision needs |
Compared with MAX6794TPYD3+, the MAX6793TPYD3+ omits windowed watchdog logic - reducing complexity and test overhead where basic timeout supervision suffices. Unlike TLV70733PDQNR, it supports 72V input, dual outputs, and full automotive supervision - making it irreplaceable in demanding vehicle subsystems.

FAQ
What output voltage options does the MAX6793TPYD3+ support?
The MAX6793TPYD3+ supports fixed 5V on both OUT1 and OUT2 outputs. The "Y" in the part number denotes the 5V/5V configuration. OUT1 can alternatively be configured as adjustable (1.8V–11V) using an external resistor divider on SET1, but the factory-programmed version MAX6793TPYD3+ ships with both outputs preset to 5V.
Does the MAX6793TPYD3+ include watchdog functionality, and how is it disabled?
Yes, the MAX6793TPYD3+ includes a standard (non-windowed) watchdog timer with 280ms minimum timeout. It is disabled by driving the WD-DIS pin low. This hardware disable method allows deterministic boot sequences and firmware updates without risk of spurious resets - a key requirement for automotive software validation.
What is the purpose of the HOLD pin on the MAX6793TPYD3+?
The HOLD pin on the MAX6793TPYD3+ is an active-low input that enables self-holding behavior: once OUT1 is enabled via ENABLE1, pulling HOLD low sustains regulation even if ENABLE1 returns low. Releasing HOLD shuts down OUT1. This eliminates external latching components in ignition-switched automotive subsystems.
Can the MAX6793TPYD3+ withstand automotive load-dump conditions?
Yes, the MAX6793TPYD3+ is rated for 5V to 72V input operation and is specifically designed to survive ISO 7637-2 Load Dump pulses (up to 60V for 400ms) without external protection. Its internal architecture and 72V absolute maximum rating on the IN pin ensure robustness in 12V and 24V vehicle electrical systems.
Is the MAX6793TPYD3+ qualified for automotive use?
Yes, the MAX6793TPYD3+ is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 0: -40°C to +125°C) and specified across the full temperature range. It undergoes rigorous testing for thermal cycling, humidity, ESD, and long-term reliability - meeting requirements for engine bay, transmission, and chassis-mounted automotive electronics.
