Product details
Overview
MAX6795TPMD2+T from Maxim Integrated is a single-output, high-voltage linear regulator with integrated supervisory functions, designed for automotive power management. It operates from 5V to 72V input, delivers up to 300mA output current, features 68μA quiescent current, and provides a fixed 3.3V output with 87.5% reset threshold and 12.5ms reset timeout - ideal for engine control units (ECUs) requiring robust brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6795TPMD2+T datasheet, MAX6795TPMD2+T pinout, MAX6795TPMD2+T application, or MAX6795TPMD2+T equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, exact pin functionality, automotive-grade thermal performance (–40°C to +125°C), AEC-Q100-qualified operation, and validated alternative options for ECU, ADAS sensor module, and telematics power-rail design.
Technical Context
The MAX6795TPMD2+T implements a single LDO regulator with internal pFET pass element, low-dropout architecture (1200mV typ at 300mA), and dual-stage supervision: a voltage-monitoring RESET output triggered at 87.5% of nominal VOUT (2.888V for 3.3V output), plus a watchdog timer with fixed 280ms timeout (CSWT tied to OUT). Its HOLD input enables self-holding latch behavior without external components.
It integrates reverse-battery protection via GATEP-driven p-channel MOSFET, thermal shutdown at +165°C with 20°C hysteresis, short-circuit current limiting (480mA max), and output overvoltage protection clamping at 1.1×VOUT. All supervisory logic is referenced to a precision 1.231V internal bandgap.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 5V to 72V - withstands automotive load-dump transients up to +72V without external protection. |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±2.5% (at 1mA, –40°C to +125°C) - meets industrial-grade microcontroller I/O rail requirements. |
| Max Output Current | 300mA continuous - supports multiple CAN transceivers and MCU cores in compact ECUs. |
| Quiescent Current | 68μA typical (VIN = 8V, no load) - enables always-on functionality in battery-sensitive applications like parking sensors. |
| Reset Threshold | 87.5% of VOUT (2.888V for 3.3V) - ensures reliable brownout detection before MCU functional failure. |
| Reset Timeout | 12.5ms (D2 option) - provides sufficient hold time for deterministic processor reset sequencing. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - fully specified across full automotive ambient range per AEC-Q100 Grade 1. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6795TPMD2+T is housed in a 20-pin, 5mm × 5mm thermally enhanced TQFN-EP package (exposed pad soldered to PCB ground plane), rated for 2.7W power dissipation at +70°C ambient.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 | OUT | Regulator output (3.3V fixed); requires ≥10μF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability and transient response. |
| 3 | SET | Feedback node - tied to GND internally for fixed 3.3V mode; unused in this variant. |
| 4 | PFO | Open-drain power-fail output - asserts low when PFI < 1.231V; used for early battery-low warning. |
| 5 | CSWT | Watchdog timeout adjust - connected to OUT (pin 1/2) to enable fixed 280ms timeout (per D2 suffix). |
| 6 | CSRT | Reset timeout adjust - connected to OUT to select fixed 12.5ms timeout (D2 code per ordering guide). |
| 7 | GND | Power and signal reference - must be low-impedance connection to PCB ground plane. |
| 8 | RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output - drives µP reset pin directly; no pull-up required. |
| 11 | WDI | Watchdog input - requires periodic edge transition within 280ms to prevent reset assertion. |
| 12 | HOLD | Active-low latch control - forces regulator ON even after ENABLE goes low; critical for ignition-key hold circuits. |
| 16 | PFI | Power-fail comparator input - accepts resistive divider to monitor battery or pre-regulated rail voltage. |
| 17, 18 | IN | Main regulator input - bypassed with 1μF ceramic capacitor to GND near pins for EMI suppression. |
| 19 | GATEP | pFET gate driver - controls external p-channel MOSFET for reverse-battery protection (no diode drop). |
| 20 | ENABLE | Active-high enable - pulled down internally (0.5μA sink); driven by ignition-switched 12V signal in automotive systems. |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Internally connected to GND - must be soldered to thermal ground plane for junction-to-board thermal resistance ≤ 15°C/W. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low IQ (68μA) | Enables >10-year battery life in always-on vehicle modules (e.g., keyless entry receivers) without wake-up leakage penalties. |
| 72V Input Tolerance | Eliminates need for external TVS or Zener clamping during ISO 7637-2 pulse 5a (load dump), reducing BOM count by one component. |
| Integrated HOLD Function | Replaces external latch circuitry (e.g., 74LVC1G80 + resistor network), saving 3–4 mm² PCB area and improving reliability. |
| AEC-Q100 Qualified | Validated for automotive use per Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C), including HTOL, temperature cycling, and ESD testing - no requalification needed. |
| Reverse-Battery Protection | GATEP output drives pFET to block –14V reverse polarity; achieves <100mV forward drop vs. >600mV for Schottky diode solutions. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage linear regulator with supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6795TPSD2/V+ | Identical pinout and electrical specs; differs only in packaging: /V+ denotes AEC-Q100 qualification and lead-free tape-and-reel (2.5k reel), while +T suffix confirms tape-and-reel format. | No functional difference - both qualified for automotive use; /V+ explicitly states AEC-Q100 compliance in part number, whereas TPMD2+T relies on datasheet qualification statement. | Select MAX6795TPSD2/V+ when explicit AEC-Q100 marking on reel label or certificate of compliance is contractually required. |
| TLV70733PDQNR | Lower voltage range (2.5V–5.5V), 200mA output, no watchdog or HOLD, no reverse-battery protection, SOT-23-5 package. | Only suitable for post-regulated 3.3V rails (e.g., secondary supply after DC/DC converter); cannot replace MAX6795TPMD2+T in direct battery-fed applications. | Use TLV70733PDQNR only in non-automotive, low-voltage, space-constrained designs where supervision features are handled externally. |
Compared with MAX6795TPMD2+T, MAX6795TPSD2/V+ offers identical performance with formal AEC-Q100 labeling, while TLV70733PDQNR lacks high-voltage capability, supervision, and automotive qualification - making it unsuitable as a functional substitute in primary battery-fed systems.

FAQ
What is the exact output voltage tolerance of the MAX6795TPMD2+T over temperature?
The MAX6795TPMD2+T delivers a fixed 3.3V output with ±2.5% tolerance across –40°C to +125°C, verified per datasheet Electrical Characteristics table (T/S grade, ILOAD = 1mA). At 300mA load and VIN = 6V, output remains within 3.201V to 3.399V - meeting stringent automotive MCU core rail requirements without external trimming.
Does the MAX6795TPMD2+T require external components to implement the HOLD function?
No. The MAX6795TPMD2+T implements HOLD entirely internally: when HOLD (pin 12) is pulled low, it forces the regulator to remain active even if ENABLE (pin 20) is subsequently deasserted. The internal 2µA pull-up to OUT eliminates need for external resistors or latches - a key differentiator versus discrete enable/HOLD implementations.
How is the reset timeout period configured for the MAX6795TPMD2+T?
The MAX6795TPMD2+T uses the D2 suffix to indicate a 12.5ms fixed reset timeout period. This is achieved by connecting CSRT (pin 6) to OUT (pins 1/2) - a configuration confirmed in the datasheet's Ordering Information table and Selector Guide. No external capacitor is required for this setting.
Is the MAX6795TPMD2+T pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX6791–MAX6796 family?
Yes - all MAX6791–MAX6796 variants share identical 20-pin TQFN-EP pinout and footprint, including MAX6795TPMD2+T. However, pin functionality differs: MAX6795/MAX6796 omit OUT2, ENABLE2, and SET1 pins (used only in dual-output versions), leaving those pins as no-connect (N.C.) - verified in the Pin Description table on page 11 of the datasheet.
What protection features does the MAX6795TPMD2+T include beyond overcurrent and thermal shutdown?
In addition to thermal shutdown (+165°C) and short-circuit current limiting (480mA), the MAX6795TPMD2+T provides output overvoltage protection (clamps at 1.1×VOUT), reverse-battery protection (via GATEP-driven pFET), and input overvoltage clamp (IN to GATEP clamp at 16.3V typ). These features collectively eliminate need for 5+ discrete protection components in automotive designs.
