Product details
Overview
MAX6822VUK-T from Maxim Integrated is a low-voltage microprocessor supervisory circuit in 5-pin SOT23 package, featuring open-drain active-low RESET output, 1.58V reset threshold (V suffix), 140ms minimum reset timeout, and 1.6s watchdog timer. It monitors VCC supply integrity, asserts reset during brownout or power-up, and supports manual reset initiation - used in portable/battery-powered equipment requiring reliable µP supervision under low-VCC conditions.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6822VUK-T datasheet, MAX6822VUK-T pinout, MAX6822VUK-T application, or MAX6822VUK-T equivalent, key selection factors include its guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = +1.0V, immunity to short negative VCC transients, no external components requirement, and compatibility with bidirectional µP reset pins via open-drain topology.
Technical Context
The MAX6822VUK-T implements a voltage-monitoring comparator with 60ppm/°C temperature coefficient and 2×VTH hysteresis, paired with a monolithic 1.6s watchdog timer that clears on WDI edge transitions. Its reset generator enforces a minimum 140ms timeout after VCC recovery, MR de-bounce, and internal 50kΩ MR pullup.
RESET output is open-drain with <0.3V VOL at ISINK = 50µA (VCC ≥ 1.0V), enabling wired-OR configurations and direct interface to bidirectional µP reset I/O like Motorola 68HC11. Watchdog input accepts 50ns minimum pulse width and tolerates up to 10µA leakage when unconnected.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 1.58V ±30mV (V suffix); precise brownout detection for 1.8V systems operating near minimum supply |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms min; ensures µP remains held in reset long enough for stable clock and supply settling |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s nominal (–40°C to +85°C); provides robust software execution monitoring without excessive timeout latency |
| VCC Operating Range | +1.2V to +5.5V (–40°C to +125°C); supports ultra-low-voltage operation while maintaining reset validity down to +1.0V |

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for MAX6822VUK-T?
The MAX6822VUK-T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 1.58V, with ±30mV tolerance over –40°C to +125°C. This value is specified in the Threshold Suffix Guide (V = 1.58V) and confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under VTH for MAX682_V. The device asserts reset when VCC falls below this threshold and holds it for ≥140ms after VCC rises above it.
Does MAX6822VUK-T include a watchdog timer, and what is its timeout period?
Yes, MAX6822VUK-T includes a watchdog timer with a nominal timeout period of 1.6s at +25°C, ranging from 1.12s to 2.40s over –40°C to +85°C. The timer resets on any rising or falling edge at the WDI pin and remains cleared while RESET is asserted. It is fully functional and documented in the Electrical Characteristics section under "Watchdog Timeout Period".
Can MAX6822VUK-T operate reliably at VCC = +1.0V?
Yes, MAX6822VUK-T guarantees correct RESET output state down to VCC = +1.0V, as explicitly stated in the General Description and Electrical Characteristics. This includes valid reset assertion and release behavior, enabling operation during deep battery discharge or severe brownout conditions where other supervisors fail.
What is the function of Pin 1 (RESET) on MAX6822VUK-T, and how should it be connected?
Pin 1 of MAX6822VUK-T is an open-drain active-low RESET output. It must be pulled up externally (typically 10kΩ to VCC) to generate a logic-high idle state. When asserted, it sinks current to ground. This configuration enables wired-OR reset buses and direct interface to µPs with bidirectional reset pins, such as the Motorola 68HC11, without level-shifting circuitry.
Is manual reset supported on MAX6822VUK-T, and what are the interface requirements?
Yes, MAX6822VUK-T supports manual reset via Pin 3 (MR), an active-low input with internal 50kΩ pullup to VCC. A logic-low pulse ≥1µs on MR forces reset assertion for ≥140ms after the pulse ends. No external components are needed - a normally-open switch between MR and GND suffices. MR accepts CMOS-level inputs and rejects <100ns glitches.
