Product details
Overview
MAX6801UR31D3+T from Maxim Integrated is a 3-pin SOT23 push/pull active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit with factory-trimmed 3.08V reset threshold, 100ms minimum reset timeout, and guaranteed operation down to 0.7V VCC. It monitors power supplies in 2.85V–5.0V digital systems, asserts RESET during brownout/power-down, and holds it for ≥100ms after VCC recovers - used in portable battery-powered equipment requiring reliable power-on reset.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6801UR31D3+T datasheet, MAX6801UR31D3+T pinout, MAX6801UR31D3+T application, or MAX6801UR31D3+T equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy (±1.8% at +25°C), ultra-low 4µA supply current, transient-immune reset comparator, and compatibility with bidirectional µP reset pins via push/pull drive strength.
Technical Context
The MAX6801UR31D3+T implements a precision bandgap-based reset comparator with factory-trimmed 3.08V threshold (±3% over –40°C to +125°C) and built-in hysteresis to prevent chatter during slow VCC transitions. Its push/pull output delivers 1.2mA sink capability at VCC ≥ 2.5V with VOL ≤ 0.3V, enabling direct interface to CMOS inputs without external pull-up resistors.
Reset assertion is triggered by VCC falling below 3.08V and remains active for a guaranteed minimum 100ms after VCC rises above threshold, independent of temperature (normalized timeout variation < ±5% across –40°C to +125°C). The device operates continuously from 0.7V to 5.5V VCC and rejects transients ≤30µs at 100mV overdrive.

Use Value: 0.7V minimum operating voltage allows reset assertion even during capacitor discharge tail; 100ms timeout ensures complete state save before power loss. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD3+T | Same 3-pin SOT23, 3.08V threshold, but 240ms min timeout; higher 10µA ICC | Longer reset pulse may delay system startup in time-critical µP boot paths | Select MAX809TRD3+T only if extended reset hold time is required for complex FPGA configuration |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V threshold (not 3.08V); 200ms min timeout; 1.1µA ICC; requires external capacitor for timeout adjustment | Fixed 3.3V threshold unsuitable for 3.0V–3.3V margin-sensitive designs; capacitor dependency adds BOM cost | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR only when lowest possible quiescent current is primary requirement and 3.3V threshold aligns with system rail |
Compared with MAX809TRD3+T and TPS3808G33DBVR, the MAX6801UR31D3+T offers optimal balance of precise 3.08V threshold, 100ms deterministic timeout, and ultra-low 4µA supply current - making it ideal for battery-powered and brownout-prone 3.3V embedded systems where timing predictability and power efficiency are critical.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6801UR31D3+T and how tightly is it specified?
The MAX6801UR31D3+T has a factory-trimmed nominal reset threshold of 3.08V, with ±1.8% tolerance at +25°C and ±3% over the full –40°C to +125°C operating range. This precision eliminates need for external resistor dividers and ensures consistent brownout detection across temperature and unit-to-unit variation in 3.3V systems.
Does MAX6801UR31D3+T require any external components to function as a reset supervisor?
No, the MAX6801UR31D3+T requires zero external components - its reset threshold, timeout period, and output drive are fully integrated and factory-configured. Unlike RC-based supervisors, it needs only VCC, GND, and connection to the µP RESET pin, reducing BOM count, PCB area, and qualification effort for the MAX6801UR31D3+T.
How does the 100ms reset timeout of MAX6801UR31D3+T compare to other standard options in the family?
The "D3" suffix in MAX6801UR31D3+T specifies a 100ms minimum reset timeout - distinct from D1 (1ms) and D2 (20ms) variants. This duration is optimized for modern microcontrollers with longer boot sequences, ensuring RESET remains asserted long enough for flash initialization, PLL lock, and peripheral configuration before release.
Can MAX6801UR31D3+T operate reliably during severe power supply brownout conditions?
Yes, the MAX6801UR31D3+T is guaranteed to maintain correct reset state down to VCC = 0.7V, and its push/pull output remains functional (VOL ≤ 0.3V at 1.2mA sink) even as supply collapses. This ensures deterministic µP reset assertion during deep brownout - a key reliability feature not offered by many competing supervisors.
Is MAX6801UR31D3+T pin-compatible with industry-standard alternatives like the MAX809 series?
Yes, the MAX6801UR31D3+T is explicitly pin-compatible with MAX809/MAX810, MAX6326/MAX6327/MAX6328, and MAX6346/MAX6347/MAX6348 per the datasheet. All share identical 3-pin SOT23 pinout (GND, RESET, VCC), enabling drop-in replacement without PCB layout changes - confirmed for the MAX6801UR31D3+T.
