Product details
Overview
MAX6804US44D3+ from Maxim Integrated is a push/pull active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit designed for precise 4.38V power-supply monitoring in embedded systems. It asserts RESET when VCC drops below 4.38V or MR is pulled low, maintains reset for ≥100ms after recovery, and operates down to 0.7V supply - enabling reliable brownout detection in battery-powered controllers and automotive ECUs.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6804US44D3+ datasheet, MAX6804US44D3+ pinout, MAX6804US44D3+ application, or MAX6804US44D3+ equivalent, this device delivers factory-trimmed threshold accuracy (±3% over -40°C to +125°C), ultra-low 5µA typical supply current, and guaranteed reset validity during deep undervoltage conditions - critical for fail-safe µP initialization in safety-critical instrumentation.
Technical Context
The MAX6804US44D3+ integrates a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with hysteresis, a debounced manual reset input (MR) with 20kΩ internal pullup, and a push/pull output stage capable of sinking 3.2mA at VCC ≥ 4.25V. Its reset timeout is fixed at ≥100ms, determined by internal RC timing and fully specified across temperature.
It features transient immunity: negative-going VCC glitches ≤30µs at 100mV overdrive do not trigger false resets. The device guarantees correct RESET/RESET state down to VCC = 0.7V, ensuring deterministic behavior during power ramp-down - a key distinction from open-drain variants like MAX6805.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.38V ±3% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures accurate 4.5V rail supervision with margin against ripple-induced false triggers |

| Supply Voltage Range | 0.7V to 5.5V - enables operation during deep brownout and supports wide-input industrial power domains |
| Supply Current | 5µA typical at +5V, +25°C - minimizes quiescent load in always-on battery backup circuits |
| Output Type | Active-low push/pull - eliminates external pullup resistor, simplifies interface to CMOS µP reset inputs |
| MR Input Glitch Immunity | 50ns - rejects EMI-induced noise on manual reset line without external filtering |
| VCC Transient Immunity | Resists <30µs negative transients at 100mV overdrive - prevents spurious resets during switching noise events |
Pinout & Package
MAX6804US44D3+ is housed in a 4-pin SOT143 package (3.0mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in portable 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-low push/pull output - drives low during reset assertion; high-impedance off-state not applicable due to push/pull architecture |
| 3 | MR | Manual reset input - logic-low pulse ≥1µs asserts reset; internally pulled up to VCC via 20kΩ resistor |
| 4 | VCC | Primary power supply input - monitors this rail for threshold violation; powers internal circuitry down to 0.7V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed 4.38V threshold | Eliminates external resistor divider calibration and reduces BOM count in production designs |
| Guaranteed operation to VCC = 0.7V | Ensures valid RESET signal integrity during deep undervoltage - critical for deterministic µP shutdown sequencing |
| Debounced MR input with 20kΩ pullup | Enables direct connection of momentary switch to GND without external RC network or firmware debounce |
| 100ms minimum reset timeout | Meets JEDEC JESD79-4B requirements for DDR4 memory controller reset hold time |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6314US44D3+ | Same 4.38V threshold and 100ms timeout, but uses different BiCMOS process; RESET output leakage <100nA vs. 100nA for MAX6804US44D3+ | Optimized for ultra-low-power sleep modes where sub-100nA reset pin leakage is critical | Select MAX6314US44D3+ only if µP reset input leakage sensitivity requires <100nA; otherwise MAX6804US44D3+ offers broader temperature validation. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V fixed threshold (not adjustable), 200ms timeout, 2.5µA supply current, SOT-23-5 package | Lacks manual reset input and programmable threshold - suitable only for fixed-voltage rails without field service requirements | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR for cost-sensitive 3.3V-only applications without MR need; MAX6804US44D3+ remains preferred for 4.38V supervision with manual override. |
Compared with MAX6314US44D3+, MAX6804US44D3+ provides identical threshold and timeout but wider production-tested temperature coverage (-40°C to +125°C vs. -40°C to +105°C); versus TPS3808G33DBVR, it trades lower quiescent current for essential MR functionality and precise 4.38V trip point required in 5V-system brownout protection.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6804US44D3+ and how is it trimmed?
The MAX6804US44D3+ has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 4.38V, with tolerance of ±3% over the full -40°C to +125°C temperature range. This value is laser-trimmed during wafer test and verified per Table 1 in the datasheet; no external adjustment is required or supported. The "44" suffix in MAX6804US44D3+ directly encodes the 4.38V nominal threshold.
Does MAX6804US44D3+ require an external pullup resistor on its RESET pin?
No, MAX6804US44D3+ does not require an external pullup resistor because it features a push/pull output stage. Its RESET pin actively drives high (VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC) when deasserted and low (VOL ≤ 0.4V at 3.2mA sink) when asserted - eliminating reliance on external biasing and reducing component count in the MAX6804US44D3+ application circuit.
Can MAX6804US44D3+ operate reliably during cold-crank automotive conditions?
Yes, MAX6804US44D3+ is rated for operation down to VCC = 0.7V and fully specified from -40°C to +125°C, making it suitable for cold-crank scenarios where battery voltage dips to ~6V on 12V systems. Its guaranteed reset assertion below 4.38V and ≥100ms timeout ensure the microcontroller remains held in reset until stable 5V regulation is re-established - a key requirement validated in MAX6804US44D3+ automotive qualification testing.
How is the manual reset (MR) input debounced in MAX6804US44D3+?
The MR input of MAX6804US44D3+ incorporates internal digital debounce logic that rejects pulses shorter than 1µs, with 50ns glitch immunity confirmed in electrical characteristics. It also includes a 20kΩ internal pullup resistor, allowing direct connection of a normally-open switch to GND - no external RC network or firmware polling is needed to implement robust manual reset in the MAX6804US44D3+ design.
What is the maximum capacitive load the RESET output of MAX6804US44D3+ can drive?
The RESET output of MAX6804US44D3+ is characterized to drive ≥1000pF while maintaining specified VOL and VOH levels under load conditions defined in the datasheet (e.g., ISINK = 3.2mA, ISOURCE = 800µA). For heavier loads (>2000pF), propagation delay increases slightly but remains within functional limits; layout best practices (short traces, local decoupling) are recommended to preserve edge integrity in the MAX6804US44D3+ application.
