Product details
Overview
MAX6807US26 from Maxim Integrated is a precision voltage detector IC designed for power-supply monitoring in microprocessor-based systems. It features a factory-preset 2.6V ±2% reset threshold, active-high push-pull RESET output, and guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1.2V - enabling reliable brownout detection in battery-powered instrumentation and portable controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6807US26 datasheet, MAX6807US26 pinout, MAX6807US26 application, or MAX6807US26 equivalent, this device serves as a low-quiescent-current (35µA), hysteresis-equipped supervisory circuit for critical µP power sequencing, embedded controller reset assertion, and portable equipment supply integrity verification.
Technical Context
The MAX6807US26 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference with internal hysteresis (VHYST = 0.02–0.03 × VTH−) to prevent output chatter near the 2.6V threshold. Its active-high push-pull RESET output drives logic-high when VCC ≥ 2.6V and asserts logic-low during undervoltage conditions.
It operates across −40°C to +85°C, supports VCC from 1.2V to 5.5V, and includes no external components - relying on internal 80kΩ MR pulldown (SOT143 package only) and fixed threshold accuracy without trimming.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.60V ±2% (VCC falling); ensures reset assertion before system ICs drop below minimum operating voltage |
| Supply Current | 35µA typical at VCC = 3.6V; enables multi-year battery life in portable equipment |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2V to 5.5V; supports operation through deep brownout and full 3.3V/5V rail monitoring |
| RESET Output Type | Active-high push-pull; eliminates need for external pullup and directly interfaces CMOS inputs |
| Hysteresis | 0.02–0.03 × VTH−; prevents oscillation during slow-rising/falling supply transitions |
| Power-Up Delay | 30µs typical; provides clean, glitch-free reset assertion after VCC stabilization |
| Tempco | 30ppm/°C; maintains threshold stability over industrial temperature range |
Pinout & Package
The MAX6807US26 is packaged in a 4-pin SOT143 surface-mount package with exposed pad (land pattern 90-0183). Pin 1 is RESET (active-high push-pull), Pin 2 is GND, Pin 3 is VCC, and Pin 4 is MR (manual reset input, internally pulled down by 80kΩ).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-high push-pull output; asserts logic high when VCC ≥ 2.6V, low otherwise |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for internal comparator and output stage |
| 3 | VCC | Supply input; powers internal circuitry and defines reset threshold reference |
| 4 | MR | Active-high manual reset input; overrides automatic reset when driven high |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision 2.6V threshold | ±2% accuracy over −40°C to +85°C ensures compliance with 2.5V ±10% system supply specs |
| Active-high push-pull output | Directly drives CMOS inputs without external pullup; reduces BOM count and layout area |
| Manual reset input (MR) | Integrated 80kΩ pulldown allows momentary switch interface without external resistor |
| Low 35µA supply current | Enables use in always-on battery-backed systems with minimal standby drain |
| Immunity to VCC transients | Rejects negative-going transients ≤100µs (at 100mV overdrive), improving noise robustness |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage detector applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6806US26 | Active-low push-pull RESET output; identical threshold, hysteresis, and supply current | Requires inverted logic handling in µP reset input; unsuitable for direct replacement where active-high is mandated | Select when target µP accepts active-low reset and board-level inversion is unavailable |
| TPS3808G26DBVR | 2.63V threshold (±0.5%), 1.8–6.0V VCC range, 1.6µA quiescent current, no MR pin | Lacks manual reset; optimized for ultra-low-power applications but requires external RC for delay tuning | Choose for battery-critical designs needing sub-2µA standby; avoid if MR functionality is required |
Compared with MAX6806US26 and TPS3808G26DBVR, the MAX6807US26 uniquely combines active-high push-pull output, integrated MR input, and industrial-grade ±2% threshold accuracy - making it optimal for portable controllers requiring both manual intervention and deterministic reset polarity.

FAQ
What is the reset threshold voltage of the MAX6807US26?
The MAX6807US26 has a factory-preset reset threshold of 2.60V ±2% (i.e., 2.548V to 2.652V at +25°C), specified for VCC falling conditions. This threshold is laser-trimmed during production and remains stable across −40°C to +85°C with a tempco of 30ppm/°C. The MAX6807US26 uses this precise point to assert its active-high RESET output when VCC drops below the threshold.
Does the MAX6807US26 support manual reset functionality?
Yes, the MAX6807US26 supports manual reset via Pin 4 (MR), which is an active-high input with an internal 80kΩ pulldown resistor. Driving MR high forces RESET low regardless of VCC level, enabling operator-initiated or test-system-triggered resets. This feature is exclusive to the SOT143 package variant - the MAX6807US26 - and is not present in SC70 or SOT23 versions of the MAX6807.
What is the minimum VCC required for guaranteed RESET output operation in the MAX6807US26?
The MAX6807US26 guarantees correct RESET output behavior down to VCC = 1.2V. Below this voltage, RESET may become indeterminate. This specification ensures reliable reset assertion during gradual brownout conditions common in battery-powered systems. The MAX6807US26 achieves this via optimized internal biasing and push-pull output stage design - distinct from the MAX6806/MAX6808, which guarantee down to 1.0V.
How does the MAX6807US26 handle power-supply transients?
The MAX6807US26 is immune to short-duration negative-going VCC transients up to 100µs (at 100mV overdrive), as characterized in Figure 3 of its datasheet. This immunity stems from internal filtering and comparator hysteresis, preventing spurious resets during switching noise or load-dump events. For enhanced robustness, a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor placed close to the VCC pin is recommended - a practice validated in the MAX6807US26's application notes.
What packages are available for the MAX6807US26?
MAX6807US26 is exclusively offered in the 4-pin SOT143 package (package code U4-1, land pattern 90-0183), which includes the MR input pin. Unlike other MAX6807 variants (e.g., MAX6807UR26-T in SOT23 or MAX6807UA26 in µMAX), the "US" suffix denotes the SOT143 configuration. This package supports tape-and-reel delivery with a minimum order quantity of 2500 units and features RoHS-compliant lead finish.
