Product details
Overview
MAX6795TPMD4+ 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 includes a capacitor-adjustable 200ms reset timeout (D4 option) and fixed 280ms watchdog timeout. It is used in engine control units (ECUs) and ADAS domain controllers where load-dump resilience and microprocessor supervision are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6795TPMD4+ datasheet, MAX6795TPMD4+ pinout, MAX6795TPMD4+ application, or MAX6795TPMD4+ equivalent, key selection considerations include its AEC-Q100-qualified TQFN-20 package, 5mm × 5mm thermally enhanced footprint, adjustable or preset output voltage (1.8V–11V or fixed 5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V), HOLD/ENABLE control logic for ignition hold circuits, and dual-mode watchdog with disable capability.
Technical Context
The MAX6795TPMD4+ integrates a single high-side linear regulator with thermal, short-circuit, and overvoltage protection, plus a precision reset supervisor with 92.5% (L/M) or 87.5% (T/S/Z/W/V) reset threshold relative to VOUT. Its RESET output is push-pull or open-drain configurable, and the D4 suffix denotes a factory-set 200ms reset timeout period (140–260ms range).
It implements a fixed 280ms (min) watchdog timeout (CSWT = OUT), supports watchdog disable via WD-DIS pin, and uses SET pin for output voltage programming (GND = preset, resistive divider = adjustable). The HOLD input enables self-holding behavior without external components, critical for automotive ignition sequencing.
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 for powering MCU cores, CAN transceivers, and sensor interfaces |
| Quiescent Current | 68μA typical - enables always-on functionality in battery-sensitive automotive modules |
| Reset Timeout (D4) | 200ms (140–260ms) - ensures reliable microprocessor initialization after brownout recovery |
| Dropout Voltage | 420mV typ at 100mA - maintains regulation down to VIN = VOUT + 0.42V, improving efficiency at low VIN |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - fully specified for under-hood automotive environments |
| Output Voltage Options | Fixed 5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V or adjustable 1.8V–11V - supports diverse SoC and peripheral rail requirements |
Pinout & Package
MAX6795TPMD4+ is housed in a 20-pin, 5mm × 5mm thermally enhanced TQFN-EP package with exposed pad (EP) connected internally to GND. The package dissipates up to 2.7W and supports operation at high ambient temperatures and elevated battery voltages.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 | OUT | Regulator output - delivers up to 300mA; requires ≥10μF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability |
| 3 | SET | Feedback input - connect to GND for preset voltage; use resistive divider for adjustable output (1.8V–11V) |
| 4 | PFO | Active-low open-drain power-fail output - asserts when PFI falls below 1.231V threshold |
| 5 | CSWT | Watchdog timeout adjust - tied to OUT for fixed 280ms timeout; capacitor to GND enables adjustment |
| 6 | CSRT | Reset timeout adjust - tied to OUT for factory-set D4 (200ms); capacitor enables user-defined timeout |
| 7 | GND | Ground reference - connects to EP for optimal thermal performance |
| 8 | RESET | Active-low reset output - push-pull or open-drain; asserts during VOUT undervoltage or watchdog fault |
| 11 | WDI | Watchdog input - requires edge transition within timeout window to prevent RESET assertion |
| 12 | HOLD | Active-low hold enable - forces regulator ON even after ENABLE goes low; enables ignition hold circuits |
| 16 | PFI | Power-fail comparator input - set threshold via resistor divider; triggers PFO at 1.231V reference |
| 17, 18 | IN | Main regulator input - bypass with 1μF capacitor to GND; rated for −0.3V to +80V absolute max |
| 19 | GATEP | pFET gate drive - controls external p-channel MOSFET for reverse-battery protection |
| 20 | ENABLE | Active-high enable - internal 0.5μA pulldown; drives high to activate regulator output |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Thermal and electrical GND - must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal dissipation and noise immunity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 68μA at no load - extends battery life in always-on automotive modules such as telematics and body controllers |
| Integrated HOLD function | Enables self-holding circuit without external latching components - simplifies ignition-switched power architecture |
| Dual supervisory timers | Independent reset (D4 = 200ms) and watchdog (280ms fixed) with disable pin - eliminates need for discrete supervisors |
| Reverse-battery protection driver | GATEP output drives external pFET - replaces lossy series diode, reducing voltage drop and heat generation |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Qualified per AEC-Q100 Rev H Grade 0 (−40°C to +125°C) - meets automotive reliability and stress-test requirements |

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 family, but D2 reset timeout (12.5ms) and S output (3.3V fixed); /V+ denotes AEC-Q100 qualification | Targeted at fast-reset applications like real-time safety monitors requiring sub-20ms recovery | Select when faster reset response is needed and 3.3V fixed output suffices; identical pinout and thermal performance |
| TLV70733PDPWR | Lower input range (2.5V–5.5V), 200mA output, no watchdog or HOLD; SOT-23-5 package | Consumer-grade portable electronics only - lacks automotive temp range, supervision, or high-VIN capability | Not suitable for automotive use; consider only for non-automotive, low-cost, low-power 3.3V point-of-load applications |
Compared with MAX6795TPMD4+, the MAX6795TPSD2/V+ offers identical automotive qualification and package but trades 200ms reset robustness for faster 12.5ms response, while TLV70733PDPWR lacks supervision, high-VIN support, and temperature rating - making it incompatible for automotive deployment.

FAQ
What output voltage options does the MAX6795TPMD4+ support?
The MAX6795TPMD4+ supports fixed output voltages of 5V, 3.3V, 2.5V, or 1.8V, selected by factory configuration indicated in the part number suffix (e.g., 'M' = 3.3V). It also supports adjustable output from 1.8V to 11V using an external resistive divider connected to the SET pin. The MAX6795TPMD4+ specifically uses the 'M' option, delivering a nominal 3.3V output with ±2.5% tolerance over temperature and load.
How is the 200ms reset timeout implemented in the MAX6795TPMD4+?
The MAX6795TPMD4+ implements its 200ms reset timeout (D4 option) using an internal capacitor ramp circuit referenced to the CSRT pin. When CSRT is tied to OUT (as in the D4 variant), the device uses a factory-trimmed internal capacitor and current source to generate a precise 200ms (140–260ms) delay after VOUT rises above the reset threshold. No external capacitor is required, ensuring consistent timing without layout sensitivity.
Can the watchdog function be disabled on the MAX6795TPMD4+?
Yes, the watchdog function on the MAX6795TPMD4+ can be disabled using the WD-DIS pin. Driving WD-DIS low disables the watchdog timer entirely, preventing RESET assertion due to WDI timeout. This allows the MAX6795TPMD4+ to operate as a pure regulator + reset supervisor without watchdog supervision - useful in systems where firmware cannot guarantee timely WDI toggling.
What is the role of the HOLD pin in the MAX6795TPMD4+?
The HOLD pin on the MAX6795TPMD4+ enables self-holding behavior: once ENABLE is asserted and the regulator turns on, pulling HOLD low locks the output ON even if ENABLE subsequently returns low. Releasing HOLD (letting it float or pulling high) shuts down the regulator. This eliminates external latch components in ignition-switched automotive power architectures, directly supporting start-stop and key-off memory functions.
Is the MAX6795TPMD4+ qualified for automotive use?
Yes, the MAX6795TPMD4+ is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 0, −40°C to +125°C) and manufactured in an automotive-grade flow. Its design includes thermal shutdown, short-circuit protection, output overvoltage clamp, and robust ESD tolerance - all validated per automotive stress test standards. The '+' suffix confirms lead-free packaging, and the device is rated for continuous operation under 72V load-dump conditions.
