Product details
Overview
The MAX6802UR46D3+ from Maxim Integrated is an open-drain, active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit designed to monitor 4.63V power supplies in embedded systems. It asserts reset during power-up, brownout, and power-down events with a guaranteed 100ms minimum timeout, operates down to VCC = 1.0V, draws only 5µA typical supply current, and is housed in a 3-pin SOT23 package for space-constrained applications such as portable instrumentation and automotive control modules.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6802UR46D3+ datasheet, MAX6802UR46D3+ pinout, MAX6802UR46D3+ application, or MAX6802UR46D3+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its factory-trimmed 4.63V reset threshold, open-drain output architecture enabling bidirectional reset pin interfacing (e.g., Motorola 68HC11), immunity to sub-30µs VCC transients at 100mV overdrive, and guaranteed reset validity across -40°C to +125°C.
Technical Context
This device implements a precision bandgap-based reset comparator with factory-trimmed threshold accuracy of ±3% over temperature, coupled to a temperature-stable internal timer that guarantees ≥100ms reset pulse width after VCC rises above 4.63V. Its open-drain RESET output requires an external pullup resistor and supports wired-OR configurations.
The IC's BiCMOS process enables ultra-low 5µA supply current at 5V while maintaining robust transient immunity-rejecting negative VCC glitches up to 30µs when overdriven by 100mV-and ensures valid reset assertion down to VCC = 1.0V, distinguishing it from the 0.7V minimum of push/pull variants.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | Factory-trimmed 4.63V (±3% over -40°C to +125°C); ensures reliable detection of 4.63V supply brownout without external calibration. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 100ms minimum after VCC rises above threshold; meets JEDEC JESD78 latch-up immunity timing requirements for µP initialization. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V; guarantees correct reset state down to 1.0V VCC, enabling operation during deep brownout conditions where push/pull variants fail. |
| Supply Current | 5µA typical at 5V/25°C; reduces quiescent power in battery-backed systems by >95% versus discrete reset solutions. |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low RESET; allows direct interface with bidirectional µP reset pins (e.g., 68HC11) using a single pullup resistor. |
| VOL (RESET Low) | 0.4V max at 1.2mA sink and VCC ≥ 4.25V; ensures solid logic-low assertion even under high-noise industrial supply conditions. |
| Transient Immunity | Rejects VCC glitches ≤30µs duration at 100mV overdrive; prevents false resets from switching noise or ESD-induced supply dips. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6802UR46D3+ is packaged in a RoHS-compliant 3-pin SOT23 (U3-1) package with 0.95mm pitch, footprint-compatible with industry-standard 3-pin supervisory circuits and optimized for high-density PCB layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for reset comparator and output stage; must be connected directly to system ground plane to maintain noise immunity. |
| 2 | RESET | Open-drain active-low reset output; requires external pullup resistor (typically 10–100kΩ) to VCC or another logic rail for proper level translation. |
| 3 | VCC | Power supply input; monitors this voltage for reset assertion; decoupling capacitor (0.1µF ceramic) required within 5mm of pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Open-drain output architecture | Enables wired-OR reset bus sharing and seamless interfacing with µPs having bidirectional reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11), eliminating level-shifter components. |
| Factory-trimmed 4.63V threshold | Eliminates need for external resistive divider or trimming potentiometer, reducing BOM count and improving long-term voltage-monitoring stability. |
| 100ms minimum reset timeout | Guarantees sufficient hold time for slow-starting µPs and peripherals, satisfying boot-sequence timing requirements without external RC networks. |
| 1.0V minimum operating VCC | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during severe brownout-critical for automotive and industrial systems where supply collapse below 1.2V occurs. |
| 4.0µA typical supply current | Extends battery life in portable equipment; enables use in always-on monitoring nodes without compromising runtime. |
Applications
| Automotive Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Portable Medical Instrumentation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6346TUT46+T | Push/pull active-low RESET output; same 4.63V threshold and 100ms timeout; operates down to 0.7V VCC. | Requires no external pullup; unsuitable for wired-OR or bidirectional µP reset pin interfaces. | Select when board layout prohibits external pullup or when interfacing with unidirectional reset inputs only. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Adjustable threshold via external resistor divider; 3.3V fixed option available; 200ms timeout; 1.4µA supply current. | Lacks factory-trimmed precision; requires two external resistors; not qualified for automotive temperature range. | Select when threshold flexibility outweighs accuracy needs and automotive qualification is unnecessary. |
Compared with MAX6802UR46D3+, MAX6346TUT46+T offers simpler drive but loses bidirectional compatibility, while TPS3808G33DBVR trades precision and qualification for ultra-low current and adjustability-making MAX6802UR46D3+ optimal for space-constrained, automotive-grade, open-drain–dependent designs.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6802UR46D3+?
The MAX6802UR46D3+ has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 4.63V, with tolerance of ±3% over the full operating temperature range (-40°C to +125°C). This value is confirmed in Table 1 of the official datasheet and applies specifically to the "46" suffix variant. The MAX6802UR46D3+ does not require external calibration or resistor dividers to achieve this accuracy.
Does the MAX6802UR46D3+ support operation during deep brownout conditions?
Yes, the MAX6802UR46D3+ guarantees correct reset-state behavior down to VCC = 1.0V, unlike the MAX6800/MAX6801 variants which are rated to 0.7V. This ensures deterministic reset assertion and release even as the supply collapses toward end-of-life battery voltage or during severe automotive cold-crank events-critical for fail-safe system behavior.
Why does the MAX6802UR46D3+ use an open-drain output instead of push/pull?
The MAX6802UR46D3+ uses an open-drain output to enable direct interfacing with microprocessors featuring bidirectional reset pins-such as the Motorola 68HC11-by allowing external pullup to any compatible voltage rail. This architecture supports wired-OR reset buses and avoids contention when multiple devices share a common reset line, a capability not available with push/pull outputs like those in the MAX6800/MAX6801 series.
What is the minimum reset timeout period specified for the MAX6802UR46D3+?
The MAX6802UR46D3+ provides a guaranteed minimum reset timeout period of 100ms after VCC rises above the 4.63V threshold. This value is factory-programmed and confirmed in the Ordering Information table and Electrical Characteristics section. The actual timeout may extend up to 200ms at temperature extremes, ensuring robust compliance with µP boot-sequence timing requirements.
Is the MAX6802UR46D3+ suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the MAX6802UR46D3+ is rated for operation from -40°C to +125°C and is available in automotive-qualified versions (denoted by "/V" suffix). While the base MAX6802UR46D3+ is lead-free and RoHS-compliant, its electrical specifications-including 1.0V minimum VCC operation, 30µs transient immunity, and 4.63V threshold stability-are fully validated across the extended temperature range required for under-hood automotive electronics.
