Product details
Overview
MAX6805US44D3+T from Maxim Integrated is an open-drain, active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit in SOT143 package, designed to monitor 4.38V power supplies with 100ms minimum reset timeout and guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1.0V. It features a debounced manual-reset input, factory-trimmed ±3% threshold accuracy over temperature, and 4.0µA supply current at 3.0V - enabling reliable brownout detection in battery-powered controllers and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6805US44D3+T datasheet, MAX6805US44D3+T pinout, MAX6805US44D3+T application, or MAX6805US44D3+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its open-drain RESET output for bidirectional µP interface compatibility (e.g., Motorola 68HC11), VCC operating range down to 1.0V, 4.38V reset threshold tolerance, and 100ms reset timeout period - all validated across –40°C to +125°C.
Technical Context
The MAX6805US44D3+T implements a precision voltage comparator with hysteresis-free threshold detection at 4.38V (±3% over –40°C to +125°C), coupled with a monostable timeout circuit that holds RESET asserted for ≥100ms after VCC rises above threshold or MR deasserts. Its open-drain output requires an external pullup resistor and supports wired-OR configurations with µP bidirectional reset pins.
Reset assertion is immune to transients ≤30µs at 10V/ms slew rate, and the internal 20kΩ MR pullup eliminates need for external components. The device operates without external capacitors or resistors, and its BiCMOS process ensures stable performance with <12µA typical supply current at 5.0V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.38V ±3% over –40°C to +125°C - ensures accurate brownout detection for 4.5V nominal rails |
| Reset Timeout Period | 100ms minimum - guarantees sufficient hold time for µP initialization sequences |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.0V to 5.5V - enables valid reset assertion during deep brownout conditions |
| Supply Current | 4µA at VCC = 3.0V - supports ultra-low-power operation in battery-backed systems |
| RESET Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - allows direct interface with bidirectional µP reset pins and wired-OR bus sharing |
| MR Input Logic | Active-low with 20kΩ internal pullup - enables momentary switch connection to GND without external components |
| VCC Transient Immunity | Rejects negative-going glitches ≤30µs at 10V/ms - prevents false resets during switching noise |
Pinout & Package
MAX6805US44D3+T is housed in a 4-pin SOT143 package (outline 21-0052, land pattern 90-0183), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm, with gull-wing leads and RoHS-compliant lead-free finish (+T suffix).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - GND | Ground reference | Return path for internal comparator and reset logic; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 2 - RESET | Open-drain active-low reset output | Sinks current when asserted; requires external pullup resistor (typically 10–100kΩ) to VCC or another logic rail |
| 3 - MR | Manual-reset input | Active-low input with internal 20kΩ pullup; asserts reset when pulled to GND; tolerant of 50ns glitches |
| 4 - VCC | Supply voltage input | Monitored power rail input; absolute max rating is +6V; supports operation down to 1.0V for valid reset state |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

Use Scenario: Handheld glucose meters using coin-cell batteries with declining voltage profiles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Detects 4.38V threshold crossing during battery discharge and triggers controlled shutdown sequence. Use Value: Enables deterministic low-battery reset before analog front-end or display driver fails due to undervoltage. |
| Automotive Body Control Modules | Smart Energy Meters |
|

Use Value: Guarantees meter retains calibrated state and prevents invalid energy accumulation during undervoltage events. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6804US44D3+T | Push/pull active-low RESET output; guaranteed valid down to VCC = 0.7V | Requires no external pullup; better suited for systems with high-impedance µP reset inputs | Select when board layout lacks space for pullup resistor or µP reset pin cannot tolerate floating state |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V fixed threshold; 200ms timeout; 2.5µA quiescent current; SOT-23-5 package | Higher integration (no MR pin); not pin-compatible; different footprint and threshold | Select when 3.3V rail monitoring is required and MR functionality is unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6805US44D3+T, the MAX6804US44D3+T offers push/pull drive eliminating external pullup needs but lacks open-drain flexibility, while TPS3808G33DBVR provides lower current and tighter threshold tolerance at the cost of losing manual reset and requiring PCB redesign.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6805US44D3+T and how tightly is it specified?
The MAX6805US44D3+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 4.38V, specified as ±1.8% at +25°C and ±3% over the full –40°C to +125°C operating temperature range. This tolerance ensures reliable detection of brownout on 4.5V nominal rails without requiring external calibration components, and is verified per Table 1 in the official datasheet.
Does MAX6805US44D3+T require an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin, and why?
Yes, MAX6805US44D3+T requires an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin because it features an open-drain output structure. Without this resistor, the RESET signal would float when deasserted, risking undefined logic states. A typical value is 10–100kΩ to VCC or another compatible rail, enabling wired-OR interfacing with bidirectional µP reset pins like those found on the Motorola 68HC11.
What is the minimum VCC voltage at which MAX6805US44D3+T guarantees correct reset assertion?
MAX6805US44D3+T guarantees correct reset assertion and output state validity down to VCC = 1.0V at –40°C to +125°C, and down to 1.2V across the full temperature range. This specification ensures reliable operation during deep brownout conditions where other supervisors may release reset prematurely, making it suitable for battery-powered equipment with steep discharge curves.
How does the manual-reset (MR) input of MAX6805US44D3+T behave, and what external components are needed?
The MR input of MAX6805US44D3+T is active-low with an internal 20kΩ pullup resistor, so it can be left unconnected if unused. To implement manual reset, connect a normally open momentary switch between MR and GND. No external debounce circuitry is required due to built-in glitch immunity (50ns) and internal debouncing - simplifying design and reducing component count.
What is the reset timeout period of MAX6805US44D3+T, and is it adjustable?
MAX6805US44D3+T has a fixed 100ms minimum reset timeout period, factory-programmed via the "D3" suffix in the part number. This timeout is non-adjustable and guaranteed over temperature (–40°C to +125°C). It ensures sufficient hold time for microcontroller initialization sequences, including flash memory setup and peripheral configuration, without requiring external timing capacitors.
