Product details
Overview
The MAX6795TPSD4+T from Maxim Integrated is a single-output, high-voltage linear regulator with integrated supervisory functions-including reset, watchdog timer, power-fail detection, and hold control-designed for automotive systems. It operates from 5V to 72V input, delivers up to 300mA output current, features 68μA quiescent current, and provides a preset 3.3V output with 87.5% reset threshold and 200ms reset timeout. It is used in engine control units (ECUs) and body control modules where load-dump resilience and low-power supervision are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6795TPSD4+T datasheet, MAX6795TPSD4+T pinout, MAX6795TPSD4+T application, or MAX6795TPSD4+T equivalent, key selection considerations include its AEC-Q100-qualified 20-pin TQFN package, fixed 3.3V output with 87.5% reset threshold, capacitor-adjustable watchdog timeout, HOLD/ENABLE logic for self-holding ignition circuits, and thermal/short-circuit protection across –40°C to +125°C.
Technical Context
The MAX6795TPSD4+T implements a single high-side pFET linear regulator with dropout voltage as low as 1200mV at 300mA (VIN = 8V), paired with an independent supervisory block featuring dual-mode watchdog (fast/slow fault detection disabled in this variant), open-drain RESET output, and PFI/PFO comparator for battery monitoring. Its HOLD input enables latch-up behavior without external components by sourcing 2µA internally to OUT.
Unlike dual-output variants (e.g., MAX6791–MAX6794), the MAX6795TPSD4+T omits ENABLE2 and OUT2 pins, consolidating control to ENABLE and HOLD while retaining full CSRT/CSWT capacitor-adjustable timing, SET feedback for optional adjustment, and GATEP-driven reverse-battery protection via external p-MOSFET.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

| Input Voltage Range | 5V to 72V - withstands automotive load-dump transients without external clamping |
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±2.5% - factory-trimmed; no external resistor required |
| Max Output Current | 300mA continuous - supports microcontroller core + peripheral rail in compact ECUs |
| Quiescent Current | 68μA typical - enables always-on functionality in vehicle sleep modes |
| Reset Threshold | 87.5% of VOUT (2.888V min at 3.3V) - ensures reliable brownout detection before MCU malfunction |
| Reset Timeout | 200ms (D4 option) - holds MCU in reset long enough for stable power recovery after transient |

Pinout & Package
MAX6795TPSD4+T is housed in a thermally enhanced 20-pin TQFN-EP (5mm × 5mm, 0.5mm pitch) with exposed pad (EP) connected internally to GND. The package dissipates up to 2.7W and supports operation at high ambient temperatures with minimal heatsinking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1,2 | OUT | Regulator output (3.3V); requires ≥10μF ceramic capacitor to GND for stability |
| 3 | SET | Feedback node; tied to GND for fixed 3.3V mode; connects to resistive divider for adjustable output |
| 4 | PFO | Open-drain power-fail output; asserts low when PFI < 1.231V (e.g., battery sag) |
| 5 | CSWT | Watchdog timeout adjust; connected to OUT for fixed 280ms timeout (as in MAX6795TPSD4+T) |
| 6 | CSRT | Reset timeout adjust; connected to OUT for fixed 200ms timeout (D4 code) |
| 7 | GND | Power and signal ground; EP must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal performance |
| 8 | RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output; drives MCU reset pin; pulled up externally |
| 11 | WDI | Watchdog input; requires periodic edge transition (e.g., from MCU GPIO) to prevent reset assertion |
| 12 | HOLD | Active-low hold enable; latches regulator ON even after ENABLE goes low; internally pulled to OUT |
| 16 | PFI | Power-fail comparator input; sets custom brownout threshold via resistive divider to IN/GND |
| 17,18 | IN | Main input (5V–72V); bypassed with 1μF ceramic capacitor to GND near pins |
| 19 | GATEP | p-MOSFET gate driver; enables reverse-battery protection without series diode loss |
| 20 | ENABLE | Active-high enable; internal 0.5μA pulldown allows direct connection to ignition-switched 12V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 68μA enables >10-year battery standby life in always-on automotive modules |
| Integrated HOLD function | Eliminates need for external latch circuitry in ignition-controlled ECU power sequencing |
| Reverse-battery protection drive | GATEP output controls external p-FET to block –14V reverse polarity without 0.3V diode drop |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Qualified to Grade 0 (–40°C to +125°C) for under-hood automotive applications |
| Thermal & short-circuit protection | Auto-shutdown at +165°C with 20°C hysteresis; 480mA short-circuit current limit prevents damage |
| Capacitor-adjustable timing | CSRT/CSWT pins support precise tuning of reset/watchdog timeouts without trimming resistors |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6795TPLD2/V+ | Same 3.3V output but 12.5ms reset timeout (D2) and AEC-Q100 automotive qualification (/V+) | Suitable for systems requiring faster reset release (e.g., infotainment boot sequencing) | Select when shorter reset hold time is needed and AEC-Q100 compliance is mandatory |
| TLV70733PDQNR | Lower IQ (25μA), 5.5V max input, no watchdog/reset supervision, SOT-23-5 package | Limited to low-voltage, non-automotive applications without supervision needs | Choose only for cost-sensitive, non-automotive 3.3V point-of-load use with <6V supply |
Compared with MAX6795TPLD2/V+, the MAX6795TPSD4+T offers longer reset assertion for robust brownout recovery but lacks formal AEC-Q100 marking; versus TLV70733PDQNR, it delivers 72V resilience, integrated supervision, and automotive-grade thermal performance-making it irreplaceable in under-hood ECU designs.

FAQ
What output voltage does the MAX6795TPSD4+T deliver?
The MAX6795TPSD4+T delivers a factory-trimmed fixed 3.3V output with ±2.5% tolerance over temperature and load. This is confirmed by the "T" prefix in the part number (per Maxim's ordering guide: T = 3.3V), and electrical characteristics show VOUT = 3.201V to 3.399V at 300mA and –40°C to +125°C. No external resistors are needed for this configuration.
How is the reset timeout period configured on the MAX6795TPSD4+T?
The MAX6795TPSD4+T uses the "D4" suffix to indicate a 200ms reset timeout period. Internally, this is implemented by connecting the CSRT pin to the OUT pin (as shown in the functional diagram), enabling the fixed timeout option. The datasheet specifies D4 corresponds to 140ms (min) / 200ms (typ) / 260ms (max), verified across –40°C to +125°C.
Does the MAX6795TPSD4+T support adjustable output voltage?
Yes, the MAX6795TPSD4+T supports adjustable output from 1.8V to 11V via the SET pin. Though shipped with fixed 3.3V output (T-code), the device retains full adjustability: disconnecting SET from GND and connecting it to an external resistor divider between OUT and GND reconfigures the output. This flexibility is documented in the Electrical Characteristics table and Typical Application Circuit.
What is the purpose of the HOLD pin on the MAX6795TPSD4+T?
The HOLD pin on the MAX6795TPSD4+T enables self-holding behavior: when driven low after initial power-up, it keeps the regulator enabled even if ENABLE is subsequently pulled low-ideal for ignition-switched automotive systems. HOLD is internally pulled up to OUT with 2µA, so leaving it unconnected or tying it to OUT makes ENABLE function as a standard ON/OFF switch.
Is the MAX6795TPSD4+T AEC-Q100 qualified?
The MAX6795TPSD4+T is not explicitly marked with /V+ in its part number and is not listed in Maxim's AEC-Q100-qualified variants (e.g., MAX6795TPSD2/V+). However, it shares identical die, 20-pin TQFN package, and –40°C to +125°C operating range with AEC-Q100 parts, and all electrical parameters are fully specified across that range. For formal compliance, MAX6795TPSD2/V+ is the certified alternative.
