Product details
Overview
MAX6803US46D1-T from Maxim Integrated is a push/pull, active-high microprocessor supervisory circuit designed for precise 4.63V power-supply monitoring in embedded systems. It asserts RESET when VCC falls below 4.63V or MR is pulled low, holds reset for ≥1ms after recovery, and operates down to 0.7V supply-enabling reliable brownout detection in battery-powered controllers and automotive ECUs.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6803US46D1-T datasheet, MAX6803US46D1-T pinout, MAX6803US46D1-T application, or MAX6803US46D1-T equivalent, key selection criteria include its factory-trimmed 4.63V threshold, 1ms minimum reset timeout, active-high push/pull output, guaranteed operation to 0.7V, and SOT143 package compatibility with MAX811/MAX6314 families.
Technical Context
This device implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with ±1.8% threshold accuracy at +25°C and ±3% over –40°C to +125°C, paired with a temperature-stable RC timeout generator. Its internal 20kΩ MR pullup eliminates external components for manual reset functionality.
The push/pull RESET output delivers VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC (at ISOURCE = 1µA) and VOL ≤ 0.4V (at ISINK = 3.2mA, VCC ≥ 5.0V), ensuring robust logic-level drive into high-impedance µP reset inputs without external pullups-critical for deterministic reset assertion during deep brownout conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.63V ±3% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures accurate 5V system brownout detection before µP malfunction |
| Reset Timeout Period | ≥1ms - meets minimum processor power-on reset hold time for ARM Cortex-M0 and PIC16F devices |
| Supply Voltage Range | 0.7V to 5.5V - enables valid RESET assertion even during severe undervoltage events |
| Supply Current | 5µA typical at +5V - supports >10-year battery life in always-on portable instrumentation |
| MR Input Glitch Immunity | 50ns - rejects ESD-induced noise on manual reset lines without external filtering |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial motor control environments |
Pinout & Package
MAX6803US46D1-T is housed in a 4-pin SOT143 surface-mount package (2.9mm × 1.5mm × 1.1mm), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in handheld and automotive modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for all internal comparators and output stage; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 2 | RESET | Active-high push/pull output - drives µP reset pin directly; no external pullup required |
| 3 | MR | Manual reset input with internal 20kΩ pullup - connect momentary switch to GND for operator-initiated reset |
| 4 | VCC | Primary supply input - monitors this rail for brownout; powers internal circuitry down to 0.7V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed 4.63V threshold | Eliminates calibration resistors and reduces BOM count in 5V industrial controllers |
| 1ms minimum reset timeout | Guarantees sufficient hold time for flash memory initialization in STM32L0x microcontrollers |
| 0.7V operating supply limit | Ensures RESET remains asserted until VCC recovers fully-prevents partial execution during power collapse |
| Debounced MR input | Removes need for external RC filter or firmware debounce in medical diagnostic handhelds |
| Push/pull active-high RESET | Directly interfaces with µPs requiring high-true reset (e.g., TI MSP430FRxx, NXP LPC800) |
Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Module | Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX811TEUS46D3-T | Same 4.63V threshold, 1ms timeout, but active-low open-drain RESET output | Requires external pullup resistor; incompatible with µPs needing active-high reset assertion | Select only if interfacing with bidirectional reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11) or legacy designs using open-drain topology |
| MAX6314US46D1-T | Identical 4.63V threshold and 1ms timeout, but features watchdog timer in addition to reset supervision | Provides fail-safe recovery from firmware hangs-adds complexity where only power monitoring is required | Choose when system requires both power-on reset and runtime watchdog capability; otherwise, MAX6803US46D1-T offers lower cost and simpler layout |
Compared with MAX811TEUS46D3-T and MAX6314US46D1-T, the MAX6803US46D1-T delivers optimal simplicity and cost efficiency for dedicated active-high reset supervision in space-constrained, low-power applications-without unnecessary watchdog overhead or open-drain interface constraints.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6803US46D1-T?
The MAX6803US46D1-T 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, making it suitable for precise supervision of nominal 5V rails in automotive and industrial applications.
Does MAX6803US46D1-T require an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin?
No, MAX6803US46D1-T does not require an external pullup resistor because it features a push/pull active-high RESET output. The internal driver actively sources current to assert HIGH and sinks current to deassert LOW-enabling direct connection to µP reset inputs such as those found on STM32G0x or Renesas RL78 devices without additional components.
What is the minimum supply voltage at which MAX6803US46D1-T guarantees valid RESET output?
MAX6803US46D1-T guarantees valid RESET output down to VCC = 0.7V, as explicitly stated in the datasheet's General Description and Electrical Characteristics sections. This allows the device to maintain correct reset assertion during severe brownout conditions where other supervisors may release reset prematurely.
Can MAX6803US46D1-T be used in place of MAX811TEUS46D3-T?
No-MAX6803US46D1-T cannot serve as a direct replacement for MAX811TEUS46D3-T due to fundamental interface differences: MAX6803US46D1-T provides active-high push/pull RESET, while MAX811TEUS46D3-T provides active-low open-drain RESET. Swapping them would invert reset logic and likely cause system failure unless board-level changes are made.
What is the reset timeout period for MAX6803US46D1-T?
The MAX6803US46D1-T has a nominal reset timeout period of 1ms, with a minimum guaranteed value of 1ms under all operating conditions. This is encoded in the "D1" portion of the part number and verified in the Electrical Characteristics table under parameter tRP for MAX680_US_ _D1-T entries.
