Product details
Overview
MAX6804US46D3+T from Maxim Integrated is a 4-pin SOT143 push/pull active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit designed for precise power supply monitoring in embedded systems. It asserts reset when VCC drops below 4.63V (±3% over temperature), guarantees valid RESET output down to VCC = 0.7V, and provides a 100ms minimum reset timeout period. Used in critical µP power monitoring for industrial controllers and portable equipment.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6804US46D3+T datasheet, MAX6804US46D3+T pinout, MAX6804US46D3+T application, or MAX6804US46D3+T equivalent, key selection criteria include factory-trimmed 4.63V threshold accuracy, 100ms timeout stability over -40°C to +125°C, ultra-low 4µA supply current at 3V, and guaranteed push/pull RESET validity during brownout recovery.
Technical Context
The MAX6804US46D3+T implements a precision bandgap-based reset comparator with ±3% threshold tolerance over full temperature range and 30µs propagation delay on VCC fall. Its internal 20kΩ MR pullup eliminates external components, and reset assertion remains active for ≥100ms after VCC rises above 4.63V or MR deassertion.
This device operates from 0.7V to 5.5V supply, maintains push/pull RESET logic state integrity down to VCC = 0.7V, and rejects transients ≤50ns on MR and ≤30µs on VCC (at 100mV overdrive). It requires no external capacitors or resistors for basic operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.63V ±3% over -40°C to +125°C - ensures reliable brownout detection for 5V systems with margin |
| Reset Timeout Period | 100ms minimum - meets JEDEC JESD78 requirement for processor initialization hold time |
| Supply Current | 4µA typical at VCC = 3.0V - enables multi-year battery life in portable equipment |
| Operating Voltage Range | 0.7V to 5.5V - supports valid reset assertion during deep brownout and post-power-up ramp |
| MR Input Glitch Immunity | 50ns - prevents false resets from ESD or noise coupling on manual-reset line |
| RESET Output Low Voltage | 0.4V max at ISINK = 50µA, VCC ≥ 1.0V - ensures TTL/CMOS-compatible low-state drive into µP reset pin |
| VCC Propagation Delay | 30µs at 10V/ms slew rate - fast response to rapid supply collapse without overshoot |
Pinout & Package
MAX6804US46D3+T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 4-pin SOT143 package (outline 21-0052), footprint-compatible with industry-standard 4-pin supervisory IC layouts. The compact 1.3mm × 2.1mm body height supports space-constrained PCB designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - GND | Ground reference | Return path for all internal circuitry; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 2 - RESET | Active-low push/pull reset output | Drives µP reset pin low during fault; actively pulls high when deasserted - no external pullup required |
| 3 - MR | Manual-reset input | Logic-low assertion triggers reset; internal 20kΩ pullup allows direct switch-to-GND connection without external components |
| 4 - VCC | Supply voltage input | Monitored power rail; device functions correctly down to 0.7V, enabling reset assertion during deep undervoltage |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed 4.63V threshold | Eliminates need for external resistor divider; reduces BOM count and calibration labor in production |
| 100ms minimum reset timeout | Ensures sufficient hold time for slow-ramping 5V supplies and complex µP boot sequences |
| 4µA supply current at 3V | Enables integration into always-on battery-backed subsystems without measurable drain impact |
| Debounced MR input with 20kΩ pullup | Supports direct SPST switch interface; removes need for RC filters or Schmitt-trigger buffers |

Applications
| Industrial PLC Controllers | Portable Medical Monitors |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Power sequencing and brownout protection in DIN-rail mounted programmable logic controllers operating across wide ambient temperatures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervisory circuit asserting active-low RESET to ARM Cortex-M7 µP during 24V DC supply sag or EMI-induced ripple. Use Value: Guarantees 100ms reset pulse width even at -40°C, preventing corrupted firmware execution during cold-start voltage ramp. |
Use Scenario: Battery-powered ECG and SpO₂ monitors requiring fail-safe restart after Li-ion cell voltage drop below 3.2V. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitoring main 3.3V LDO output and asserting RESET before µC enters undefined state during discharge. Use Value: 4µA quiescent current extends single-charge runtime by >12 months; 4.63V threshold aligns with battery protection cutoff. |
| Automotive Body Control Modules | Smart Energy Meters |
Use Scenario: Reset supervision for CAN-enabled microcontrollers in 12V automotive subsystems exposed to load-dump and cold-crank conditions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Detecting VCC collapse during cranking (down to 6V) and holding RESET asserted until stable 5V rail reestablished. Use Value: Valid operation down to 0.7V ensures reset assertion continuity through worst-case cold-crank transients. |
Use Scenario: Tamper-resistant metering ICs requiring deterministic reset behavior during AC mains interruption or capacitor backup discharge. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitoring 3.3V backup rail derived from supercapacitor; asserting RESET before voltage falls below µC operational minimum. Use Value: Factory-trimmed 4.63V threshold provides precise margin above 3.3V rail while rejecting normal ripple. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6315US46D3+T | Same 4.63V threshold and 100ms timeout, but uses BiCMOS process with 1.5µA lower ICC at 3V | Identical pinout and function; optimized for ultra-low-power battery applications where every nanoamp matters | Select MAX6315US46D3+T only if sub-3µA supply current is mandatory; otherwise MAX6804US46D3+T offers broader temp validation |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V fixed threshold (not adjustable), 200ms timeout, 1.1µA ICC, SOT-23-5 package | Requires PCB redesign due to 5-pin layout and lacks MR input; suited for cost-sensitive, fixed-threshold designs | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR only for new designs targeting 3.3V rails with no manual reset need; not drop-in compatible |
Compared with MAX6315US46D3+T, MAX6804US46D3+T trades 1.5µA lower ICC for superior -40°C to +125°C characterization confidence; versus TPS3808G33DBVR, it provides field-configurable threshold and MR support at the cost of higher quiescent current and legacy SOT143 footprint.

FAQ
What is the factory-trimmed reset threshold voltage for MAX6804US46D3+T?
The MAX6804US46D3+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 4.63V, specified with ±1.8% tolerance at +25°C and ±3% over the full -40°C to +125°C operating range. This value is confirmed in Table 1 of the official datasheet and corresponds to the "46" suffix in the part number. The threshold is laser-trimmed during production to ensure accuracy without external calibration.
Does MAX6804US46D3+T require an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin?
No, MAX6804US46D3+T does not require an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin because it features a push/pull output stage. The internal driver actively pulls RESET high when deasserted, ensuring clean CMOS/TTL-compatible logic levels without external components. This simplifies layout and improves noise immunity compared to open-drain alternatives like the MAX6805 series.
What is the minimum supply voltage at which MAX6804US46D3+T guarantees valid RESET output?
MAX6804US46D3+T guarantees valid RESET output down to VCC = 0.7V across the full -40°C to +125°C temperature range. This ensures reliable reset assertion during deep brownout events, such as automotive cold-crank or battery depletion, where supply voltage may collapse well below nominal levels before recovery.
How long is the reset timeout period for MAX6804US46D3+T, and is it adjustable?
The MAX6804US46D3+T has a fixed 100ms minimum reset timeout period, indicated by the "D3" suffix in the part number. This timeout is factory-programmed and non-adjustable; it begins after VCC rises above 4.63V or after MR is deasserted, and ensures sufficient hold time for complex microprocessor initialization sequences per JEDEC JESD78 standards.
Can MAX6804US46D3+T interface directly with a microcontroller that has a bidirectional reset pin?
MAX6804US46D3+T is not recommended for direct interface with bidirectional reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11) because its push/pull output cannot tolerate external voltage sources on RESET. For such applications, the open-drain MAX6805US46D3+T is preferred - it allows safe wired-OR configuration with µP-driven reset signals using a single external pullup resistor.
