Product details
Overview
MAX6795TPLD4+ from Maxim Integrated is a single-output, high-voltage linear regulator with integrated supervisory functions, designed for automotive power management. It delivers up to 300mA at 5V (L option), operates from 5V to 72V input, consumes only 68μA quiescent current, and features a capacitor-adjustable 200ms reset timeout (D4) and fixed 280ms watchdog timeout - ideal for engine control units under load-dump conditions.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6795TPLD4+ datasheet, MAX6795TPLD4+ pinout, MAX6795TPLD4+ application, or MAX6795TPLD4+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100-qualified 20-pin TQFN package, HOLD/ENABLE logic for ignition-controlled self-holding, adjustable output (1.8V–11V), and dual-supervision capability with independent reset and watchdog timing.
Technical Context
The MAX6795TPLD4+ implements a single L-option (5V preset) linear regulator with dropout voltage of 420mV (typ) at 100mA and thermal shutdown at +165°C. Its supervisory block integrates a fixed 92.5% reset threshold relative to VOUT and a 200ms reset timeout set via CSRT capacitor (D4 code), alongside a fixed 280ms watchdog timeout (CSWT = OUT).
It uses an internal 1.231V reference for both PFI comparator and SET feedback, supports reverse-battery protection via GATEP-driven pFET, and provides push-pull or open-drain RESET output with 0.4V VOL at 3.2mA sink - all specified across –40°C to +125°C ambient.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 5V to 72V - withstands automotive load-dump transients without external clamping. |
| Output Current | 300mA continuous - sufficient to power microcontrollers, CAN transceivers, and sensor interfaces in ECU modules. |
| Quiescent Current | 68μA - enables always-on functionality in battery-sensitive automotive applications (e.g., body control modules). |
| Reset Timeout | 200ms (D4 code) - capacitor-adjustable via CSRT pin; ensures reliable µP reset after brownout recovery. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 280ms (fixed, CSWT = OUT) - provides fail-safe monitoring of host MCU activity without external timing components. |
| Dropout Voltage | 420mV (typ) at 100mA - maintains regulation down to VIN = 5.42V when VOUT = 5V, critical for cold-crank operation. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - fully qualified for under-hood automotive environments per AEC-Q100. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6795TPLD4+ is housed in a 20-pin, 5mm × 5mm thermally enhanced TQFN-EP package (exposed pad connected to GND), rated for 2.7W dissipation and optimized for high-ambient automotive PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1,2 | OUT | Regulator output (5V preset); requires ≥10μF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability and transient response. |
| 3 | SET | Feedback input; grounded for 5V preset, or connected to resistive divider for adjustable output (1.8V–11V). |
| 4 | PFO | Open-drain power-fail output; asserts low when PFI < 1.231V - used for early battery-low warning or graceful shutdown. |
| 5 | CSWT | Watchdog timeout adjust; tied to OUT for fixed 280ms timeout (as in MAX6795TPLD4+). |
| 6 | CSRT | Reset timeout adjust; tied to OUT for D4-coded 200ms timeout - sets duration RESET stays low post-recovery. |
| 7 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference; must be connected to low-impedance PCB ground plane. |
| 8 | RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output; drives µP reset pin directly with 0.4V max VOL at 3.2mA sink. |
| 11 | WDI | Watchdog input; requires edge transition every ≤280ms to prevent reset assertion - monitors host MCU liveness. |
| 12 | HOLD | Active-low hold enable; forces regulator ON even after ENABLE goes low - enables ignition-key self-holding circuits. |
| 16 | PFI | Power-fail comparator input; configured with external resistor divider to set custom undervoltage detection threshold. |
| 17,18 | IN | Main regulator input; bypassed with 1μF capacitor to GND to suppress high-frequency noise and load-dump spikes. |
| 19 | GATEP | pFET gate driver; controls external p-channel MOSFET for reverse-battery protection - eliminates series diode loss. |
| 20 | ENABLE | Active-high enable; internally pulled down (0.5μA), driven by ignition signal to initiate power-up sequencing. |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Thermal pad tied to GND; mandatory connection to PCB ground plane for thermal performance and EMI reduction. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 68μA enables >10-year battery standby in always-on automotive modules without parasitic drain. |
| Integrated reverse-battery protection | GATEP output drives external pFET - eliminates 0.3–0.7V diode drop and associated heat, improving efficiency. |
| Self-holding circuit support | HOLD + ENABLE logic allows ignition-switched startup with sustained output after key-off - no external latch required. |
| Dual independent supervision | Separate reset timeout (CSRT) and watchdog timeout (CSWT) allow precise coordination of power-up sequencing and runtime fault detection. |
| AEC-Q100 qualification | Qualified for automotive Grade 0 (–40°C to +125°C), including stress testing for temperature cycling, HTOL, and ESD. |
Applications
| Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Body Control Module (BCM) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage supervisory regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6795TPSD2/V+ | Same 5V output, but D2-coded 12.5ms reset timeout and S-option 3.3V output variant - not functionally identical to L/D4 configuration. | Targeted at systems needing faster reset recovery (e.g., infotainment boot), not extended brownout hold. | Select only if 12.5ms reset suffices and 3.3V output is required; MAX6795TPLD4+ is preferred for ECU-level 200ms reset coordination. |
| TLV70733PDPWR | Lower voltage (up to 5.5V IN), no watchdog/reset supervision, 200mA output, SOT-23-5 package - lacks automotive qualification and high-voltage capability. | Suitable for non-automotive 3.3V point-of-load, not load-dump or AEC-Q100 applications. | Not a drop-in replacement; use only in cost-sensitive, low-voltage consumer designs where supervision is handled externally. |
Compared with MAX6795TPSD2/V+ and TLV70733PDPWR, the MAX6795TPLD4+ uniquely combines 72V tolerance, AEC-Q100 qualification, integrated 200ms reset, and 280ms watchdog in a single automotive-grade device - eliminating need for discrete supervisors and enabling compact, robust ECU power architecture.

FAQ
What output voltage does the MAX6795TPLD4+ deliver?
The MAX6795TPLD4+ delivers a fixed 5V output (L option), verified by electrical characteristics tables showing VOUT = 4.850V to 5.150V at 300mA load and VIN = 8V. The "L" in the part number explicitly denotes the 5V preset configuration, and SET is internally grounded - no external resistor divider is needed for nominal operation.
Is the MAX6795TPLD4+ AEC-Q100 qualified?
Yes, the MAX6795TPLD4+ is AEC-Q100 qualified, as confirmed by the ordering information table listing MAX6795TPLD2/V+ and MAX6795TPSD2/V+ with "/V" suffix denoting automotive qualification, and by the device's –40°C to +125°C operating range, thermal shutdown at +165°C, and qualification test references in the datasheet.
How is the 200ms reset timeout implemented in the MAX6795TPLD4+?
The MAX6795TPLD4+ implements a 200ms reset timeout using the D4 code, which configures the CSRT pin for a fixed 200ms period (140–260ms min/max). This is achieved by tying CSRT to the OUT pin - no external capacitor is required. The timeout begins when VOUT rises above the 92.5% reset threshold and holds RESET low for the full duration.
Can the MAX6795TPLD4+ be used with an adjustable output voltage?
Yes, the MAX6795TPLD4+ supports adjustable output from 1.8V to 11V by disconnecting SET from GND and connecting it to an external resistive divider between OUT and GND. However, doing so disables the factory-trimmed 5V preset - the D4 reset timeout remains functional, but output accuracy depends on resistor tolerance and temperature drift.
What is the purpose of the HOLD pin on the MAX6795TPLD4+?
The HOLD pin on the MAX6795TPLD4+ enables self-holding operation: when pulled low after initial enable, it keeps the regulator ON even if ENABLE returns low - essential for ignition-switched automotive systems. HOLD is internally pulled up to OUT with 2µA, so leaving it unconnected makes ENABLE function as a standard ON/OFF switch.
