Product details
Overview
MAX6793TPYD4+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual-output, high-voltage linear regulator with integrated supervisory functions, designed for automotive systems requiring robust 5V–72V input operation, ultra-low 68μA quiescent current, and dual 150mA outputs (OUT1 adjustable/fixed, OUT2 fixed 5V). It delivers precise reset supervision with 200ms capacitor-adjustable timeout and supports watchdog monitoring with disable capability.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6793TPYD4+T datasheet, MAX6793TPYD4+T pinout, MAX6793TPYD4+T application, or MAX6793TPYD4+T equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functionality, confirmed automotive-grade thermal performance (−40°C to +125°C), and real-world selection guidance against functionally comparable alternatives.
Technical Context
The MAX6793TPYD4+T implements two independent LDO regulators: OUT1 supports preset (1.8V/2.5V/3.3V/5V) or adjustable (1.8V–11V) output via SET1 feedback, while OUT2 provides a fixed 5V output. Both outputs are rated for up to 150mA under full temperature range.
Its supervisory architecture includes an active-low open-drain RESET output triggered at 87.5% of OUT1 nominal voltage (e.g., 4.375V for 5V mode), with timeout set to 200ms via CSRT capacitor; a watchdog input (WDI) with fixed 280ms timeout (CSWT = OUT1) or adjustable period; and dedicated WD-DIS pin for hardware disable.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 5V to 72V - withstands automotive load-dump transients without external protection |
| Quiescent Current | 68μA typical - enables always-on ECU modules with <100μA standby draw |
| Output Current (per channel) | 150mA max per OUT1/OUT2 - sufficient for MCU core + peripheral rail in body control units |
| Dropout Voltage | 840mV typ @ 100mA (dual mode) - maintains regulation down to VIN = VOUT + 0.84V |
| Reset Timeout Period | 200ms (D4 option) - ensures reliable microcontroller initialization after brownout recovery |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - AEC-Q100–compatible junction rating for under-hood deployment |
| Package Thermal Dissipation | 2.7W max (5mm × 5mm TQFN-EP) - sustains continuous 150mA output at +105°C ambient |
Pinout & Package
MAX6793TPYD4+T uses a 20-pin thermally enhanced TQFN-EP package (5mm × 5mm, 0.5mm pitch) with exposed pad (EP) connected internally to GND for optimal heat transfer.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1,2 | OUT1 | Dual-mode regulator output: preset (1.8V/2.5V/3.3V/5V) or adjustable (1.8V–11V) via SET1 |
| 3 | SET1 | Feedback node for OUT1 - GND for preset voltage; resistive divider for adjustable mode |
| 4 | PFO | Open-drain power-fail output - asserts low when PFI < 1.231V (e.g., battery sag detection) |
| 5 | CSWT | Watchdog timeout adjust - tied to OUT1 for fixed 280ms timeout; capacitor to GND for adjustment |
| 6 | CSRT | Reset timeout adjust - tied to OUT1 for fixed 200ms (D4); capacitor sets custom delay |
| 7 | GND | Power and signal reference ground - connects to EP for thermal path |
| 8 | RESET | Active-low open-drain reset - asserts during OUT1 undervoltage or watchdog fault |
| 9,10 | WDS1, WDS0 | Windowed watchdog ratio select - not used on MAX6793 (replaced by WD-DIS) |
| 11 | WDI | Watchdog input - rising/falling edge must occur within timeout to prevent RESET assertion |
| 12 | HOLD | Active-low hold enable - keeps OUT1 ON even if ENABLE1 goes low (self-holding circuit) |
| 13,14 | OUT2 | Fixed 5V output - independent of OUT1; requires 10μF min output capacitance |
| 15 | ENABLE2 | Active-high enable for OUT2 - internal 0.5μA pulldown allows direct MCU GPIO control |
| 16 | PFI | Power-fail comparator input - resistor divider sets threshold (e.g., 12V battery low warning) |
| 17,18 | IN | Main regulator input - bypassed with 1μF ceramic cap to GND for stability |
| 19 | GATEP | pFET gate driver - controls external PMOS for reverse-battery protection (no diode loss) |
| 20 | ENABLE1 | Active-high enable for OUT1 - internal 0.5μA pulldown enables simple ON/OFF control |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Internally connected to GND - must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal compliance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent regulators | OUT1 (adjustable/fixed) + OUT2 (fixed 5V) - powers mixed-voltage subsystems from single IC |
| Hardware watchdog disable | WD-DIS pin - enables deterministic shutdown of supervision logic without firmware dependency |
| Self-holding circuit support | HOLD input - eliminates need for external latch components in ignition-controlled power sequencing |
| Reverse-battery protection drive | GATEP output - directly drives p-channel MOSFET to replace lossy series diode (≈0.3V drop saved) |
| Automotive thermal robustness | 2.7W dissipation in 5mm × 5mm TQFN - sustains 150mA per rail at +105°C ambient without derating |
Applications
| Body Control Module (BCM) | Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) Camera Power |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-output automotive regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6794TPYD4+T | Dual-output like MAX6793TPYD4+T but includes windowed watchdog (WDS0/WDS1 pins) instead of WD-DIS | Required where min/max watchdog windowing is needed for safety-critical firmware validation | Select MAX6794TPYD4+T only if windowed watchdog behavior is mandated; otherwise MAX6793TPYD4+T offers simpler disable control |
| TLV70733PDQNR | Single 3.3V LDO (200mA), no supervision, 2.5V–5.5V input, SOT-23-5 package | Lacks reset/watchdog/GATEP - suitable only for non-safety secondary rails with narrow input range | Use TLV70733PDQNR only for cost-sensitive, non-automotive auxiliary rails; cannot replace MAX6793TPYD4+T's 5V–72V capability or dual supervision |
Compared with MAX6794TPYD4+T, the MAX6793TPYD4+T trades windowed watchdog flexibility for simplified watchdog disable via WD-DIS; compared with TLV70733PDQNR, it delivers full automotive-grade supervision, reverse-battery protection, and 72V tolerance - making it irreplaceable for primary ECU power rails.

FAQ
What output voltage options does the MAX6793TPYD4+T support?
The MAX6793TPYD4+T supports preset output voltages of 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, or 5.0V on OUT1 (selected by grounding SET1), and a fixed 5.0V on OUT2. OUT1 can also be adjusted from 1.8V to 11V using an external resistive divider connected to SET1 - enabling flexible rail generation for mixed-voltage automotive subsystems. The MAX6793TPYD4+T does not support programmable output via digital interface.
How is the 200ms reset timeout configured on the MAX6793TPYD4+T?
The MAX6793TPYD4+T uses the "D4" suffix to indicate a factory-configured 200ms reset timeout period. This is implemented by connecting the CSRT pin to OUT1 internally (or externally), selecting the fixed 200ms option from the internal timeout table. No external capacitor is required - the timing is trimmed during production. The MAX6793TPYD4+T datasheet confirms D4 corresponds to 140ms (min) / 200ms (typ) / 260ms (max) timeout.
Does the MAX6793TPYD4+T include reverse-battery protection?
Yes, the MAX6793TPYD4+T integrates 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 power loss and board space of a series Schottky diode. When reverse polarity is applied, GATEP pulls low to turn off the MOSFET, achieving near-zero leakage. The MAX6793TPYD4+T's absolute maximum rating supports −12V on GATEP relative to IN, ensuring robustness.
Can the watchdog function on the MAX6793TPYD4+T be disabled?
Yes, the MAX6793TPYD4+T includes a dedicated WD-DIS pin that disables the watchdog timer when driven low. Unlike parts requiring configuration via WDS0/WDS1 pins, WD-DIS provides hardware-level disable - critical for firmware update modes or diagnostic states where watchdog timeouts would interfere. When WD-DIS is high or connected to OUT1, the watchdog operates normally with 280ms fixed timeout (CSWT = OUT1).
What is the thermal performance of the MAX6793TPYD4+T in its TQFN package?
The MAX6793TPYD4+T's 5mm × 5mm TQFN-EP package dissipates up to 2.7W with proper PCB layout (exposed pad soldered to thermal ground plane). At +70°C ambient, its 2667mW continuous power dissipation rating allows full 150mA per output at 5V (1.5W total) with margin. Derating is 33.3mW/°C above +70°C, supporting sustained operation at +105°C ambient in automotive under-hood environments - confirmed by thermal characterization in the MAX6793TPYD4+T datasheet.
