Product details
Overview
MAX6795TPWD1+T from Maxim Integrated is a single-output, high-voltage linear regulator with integrated supervisory functions (RESET, watchdog, power-fail comparator, 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 supports fixed (5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V) or adjustable (1.8V–11V) output voltage. It is used in engine control units (ECUs) and body electronics where load-dump resilience and low-power supervision are critical.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6795TPWD1+T datasheet, MAX6795TPWD1+T pinout, MAX6795TPWD1+T application, or MAX6795TPWD1+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q100-qualified 20-pin TQFN package, 420mV typical dropout at 100mA, capacitor-adjustable reset/watchdog timeout, HOLD-enabled self-holding circuit, and -40°C to +125°C operation.
Technical Context
The MAX6795TPWD1+T integrates a high-voltage LDO regulator with precision supervisory blocks: a RESET output triggered by OUT voltage drop below 92.5%/87.5% thresholds, a watchdog timer with fixed 280ms (min) or capacitor-adjustable timeout, and a power-fail comparator referenced to 1.231V. Its HOLD input enables latch-up behavior without external components, while ENABLE provides standard ON/OFF control.
It implements reverse-battery protection via GATEP-driven pFET, includes thermal shutdown (+165°C), short-circuit current limiting (480mA max), and output overvoltage protection (1.05×VOUT). All supervisory timing (reset and watchdog) is internally trimmed or externally programmable using CSRT/CSWT pins with ramp-current-based capacitor charging.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 5V to 72V - withstands automotive load-dump transients without external clamping. |
| Quiescent Current | 68μA typ - enables always-on functionality in battery-powered automotive modules. |
| Output Current | 300mA max - sufficient to power microcontrollers, CAN transceivers, and sensors directly. |
| Dropout Voltage | 420mV typ at 100mA - maintains regulation under high VIN/low VOUT conditions (e.g., 12V→5V). |
| Reset Threshold Accuracy | ±1.5% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable brownout detection across full automotive temperature range. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 280ms min (fixed) or capacitor-adjustable - configurable fault-detection window for diverse MCU firmware cycles. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C - fully specified for under-hood and transmission-control applications. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6795TPWD1+T is housed in a 20-pin, 5mm × 5mm thermally enhanced TQFN-EP package with exposed pad (EP) connected to GND for improved thermal dissipation (2.7W capability). The package meets AEC-Q100 Grade 0 requirements and supports reflow soldering at +260°C.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1,2 | OUT | Main regulated output (1.8V–11V fixed or adjustable); requires ≥10μF ceramic bypass to GND. |
| 3 | SET | Feedback node for adjustable output; grounded for preset voltages (5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V). |
| 4 | PFO | Open-drain power-fail output; asserts low when PFI < 1.231V - used for early battery-low warning. |
| 5 | CSWT | Watchdog timeout programming node; connect to OUT or add capacitor to GND for adjustable period. |
| 6 | CSRT | Reset timeout programming node; same function as CSWT but for RESET assertion duration. |
| 7 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference; connects to EP for thermal path. |
| 8 | RESET | Active-low push-pull or open-drain reset output; asserts during brownout or watchdog fault. |
| 11 | WDI | Watchdog input; rising/falling edge must occur within timeout window to prevent RESET assertion. |
| 12 | HOLD | Active-low latch enable; forces regulator ON even after ENABLE goes low - enables self-holding circuits. |
| 16 | PFI | Power-fail comparator input; set threshold via resistive divider to monitor battery or pre-regulated rail. |
| 17,18 | IN | Main input supply (5V–72V); bypass with 1μF ceramic capacitor to GND. |
| 19 | GATEP | pFET gate drive output; controls external p-channel MOSFET for reverse-battery protection. |
| 20 | ENABLE | Active-high regulator enable; internally pulled down (0.5μA sink) - driven by ignition signal or MCU GPIO. |
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 latching circuitry - reduces BOM count and PCB area in ECU designs. |
| Capacitor-programmable timing | CSRT/CSWT pins allow precise, production-tunable reset and watchdog timeouts without trimming resistors. |
| Reverse-battery protection driver | GATEP output drives pFET to block reverse current - replaces lossy series diode with <50mΩ RDS(on) solution. |
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Qualified per Grade 0 (-40°C to +125°C) - certified for safety-critical automotive power domains. |
Applications
| Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) Camera Module |

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+ | Same 20-pin TQFN package, but preset 3.3V output and 12.5ms reset timeout (D2); AEC-Q100 qualified (/V+). | Used where fixed 3.3V rail and longer reset hold-off are required (e.g., infotainment SoC power sequencing). | Select MAX6795TPWD1+T for adjustable output or 5V/1.8V/2.5V presets; choose MAX6795TPSD2/V+ only if 3.3V + 12.5ms reset is mandatory and AEC-Q100 is required. |
| TLV70733PDQNR | Lower voltage (2.5V–5.5V IN), 200mA output, no watchdog or HOLD; SOT-23-6 package. | Suitable only for non-automotive, low-voltage, low-current applications without supervision needs. | Not a functional alternative: lacks 72V input, watchdog, HOLD, RESET, and AEC-Q100 qualification - avoid for automotive use cases. |
Compared with MAX6795TPSD2/V+, MAX6795TPWD1+T offers identical package and supervision features but differs in output voltage option (W = 1.8V preset) and reset timeout (D1 = 35µs), making it optimal for low-voltage sensor rails requiring fast reset response; TLV70733PDQNR is unsuitable due to missing high-voltage, supervision, and automotive qualification capabilities.

FAQ
What output voltage options does the MAX6795TPWD1+T support?
The MAX6795TPWD1+T supports preset output voltages of 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, or 5.0V - the 'W' in the part number indicates the 1.8V fixed option. It also supports adjustable output from 1.8V to 11V using an external resistor divider on the SET pin. Output accuracy is ±1.5% over temperature and load, verified across -40°C to +125°C.
Does the MAX6795TPWD1+T include reverse-battery protection?
Yes, the MAX6795TPWD1+T includes integrated reverse-battery protection via its GATEP pin, which drives the gate of an external p-channel MOSFET. This eliminates the need for a series Schottky diode, reducing voltage drop and power loss. The GATEP output is rated for 13.8V to 18.8V clamp voltage and can sink/source sufficient current to fully enhance common automotive pFETs.
How is the watchdog timeout configured on the MAX6795TPWD1+T?
The MAX6795TPWD1+T watchdog timeout is fixed at 280ms (minimum) and cannot be windowed - confirmed by its 'D1' suffix (indicating 35µs reset timeout) and absence of WDS0/WDS1 pins in its pinout. The timeout is selected via internal logic; CSWT pin connects to OUT for fixed mode or to a capacitor for adjustable mode, but D1-suffix devices default to fixed 280ms unless capacitor is applied.
What is the purpose of the HOLD pin on the MAX6795TPWD1+T?
The HOLD pin on the MAX6795TPWD1+T is an active-low input that enables self-holding behavior: once the regulator is enabled via ENABLE, pulling HOLD low sustains regulation even if ENABLE returns low. Releasing HOLD shuts down the output. This eliminates external latch circuitry in ignition-controlled systems - a key design feature validated in automotive ECU reference schematics.
Is the MAX6795TPWD1+T AEC-Q100 qualified?
No, the MAX6795TPWD1+T is not AEC-Q100 qualified - the '/V+' suffix denotes AEC-Q100 qualification, and this part lacks that designation. However, it is fully specified from -40°C to +125°C, includes automotive-grade thermal/shutdown protection, and shares the same 20-pin TQFN package and electrical specs as qualified variants like MAX6795TPLD2/V+, making it suitable for non-safety-critical automotive applications where qualification is not mandated.
