Product details
Overview
MAX6824SUK+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-voltage microprocessor supervisory IC in SOT23-5 package, combining voltage monitoring (3.08V threshold), 1.6s watchdog timer, and dual push-pull reset outputs (active-low RESET and active-high RESET). It ensures reliable µP reset during power-up, brownout, and software fault conditions in battery-powered and embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6824SUK+T datasheet, MAX6824SUK+T pinout, MAX6824SUK+T application, or MAX6824SUK+T equivalent, this device supports critical reset sequencing, watchdog supervision, and dual-reset signaling without external components - key for portable instrumentation, set-top boxes, and industrial controllers requiring guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = +1.0V.
Technical Context
The MAX6824SUK+T implements a precision bandgap-based voltage monitor with ±1.5% threshold accuracy over –40°C to +125°C and 60ppm/°C temperature coefficient. Its internal 1.6s watchdog timer clears on any WDI edge and triggers reset if no transition occurs within timeout.
It features two independent push-pull reset outputs: RESET asserts low when VCC drops below 3.08V, MR is pulled low, or watchdog times out; RESET asserts high under identical conditions. Both outputs remain active for ≥140ms after recovery, with guaranteed logic state integrity down to VCC = +1.0V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.08V ±1.5% - precisely monitors +3.3V supply rails with brownout detection at defined margin |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms (min) - ensures µP completes full initialization before release from reset |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s (nominal) - detects firmware hangs exceeding typical task cycle time in embedded controllers |
| Supply Voltage Range | +1.2V to +5.5V - supports operation across wide input range including low-power battery modes |
| Reset Output Drive | Push-pull RESET (low) and RESET (high) - eliminates need for external pull resistors in most µP interfaces |
| Guaranteed Reset Validity | VCC ≥ +1.0V - maintains correct reset state during deep brownout or ultra-low-power wake-up sequences |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive-grade and industrial ambient environments |
Pinout & Package
MAX6824SUK+T uses a 5-pin SOT23-5 package (U5-1 outline, land pattern 91-0174), surface-mount compatible with standard reflow profiles and RoHS-compliant (+T suffix).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output - directly drives µP reset pin without pull-up; asserts low on fault |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference - common return path for all internal circuits and reset outputs |
| 3 | WDI | Watchdog input - toggling within 1.6s prevents reset; unconnected disables watchdog |
| 4 | RESET | Active-high push-pull reset output - complements RESET for systems requiring high-asserted reset signal |
| 5 | VCC | Supply and monitored voltage input - powers device and provides reference for 3.08V threshold detection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual push-pull reset outputs | Eliminates external pull resistors and enables direct interface to both active-low and active-high µP reset pins |
| 1.6s watchdog timer with edge-triggered clear | Prevents false timeouts from static WDI states; robust against noise-induced glitches on watchdog line |
| No external components required | Reduces BOM count and PCB area - full supervision functionality in single 5-pin SOT23 |
| Reset valid down to VCC = +1.0V | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during ultra-low-voltage wake-up or battery depletion scenarios |
| Immunity to short negative VCC transients | Withstands ≤20µs, 100mV VCC glitches without spurious reset - improves system resilience in noisy power environments |
Applications
| Set-Top Boxes | Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6822SUK+T | Open-drain RESET output instead of push-pull RESET; same 3.08V threshold and 1.6s watchdog | Requires external pull-up for µP reset; suited for bidirectional reset pins (e.g., MC68HC11) | Select when interfacing to µPs with open-drain-compatible reset inputs or shared reset buses |
| MAX6315US31D3+T | Single active-low push-pull reset; no watchdog or manual reset; 3.08V threshold; 200ms timeout | Lacks supervision features beyond voltage monitoring - simpler, lower-cost option for basic reset-only needs | Select when watchdog and dual-reset functionality are unnecessary and board space allows larger SOT23-3 package |
Compared with MAX6824SUK+T, MAX6822SUK+T offers open-drain flexibility at the cost of external biasing, while MAX6315US31D3+T reduces feature count and package size but removes critical watchdog and dual-output capabilities essential for fault-tolerant designs.

FAQ
What is the reset threshold voltage for MAX6824SUK+T?
The MAX6824SUK+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 3.08V ±1.5%, optimized for monitoring +3.3V supply rails. This value is fixed by the 'T' suffix in the part number and is guaranteed over –40°C to +125°C with 60ppm/°C temperature coefficient. The threshold remains stable even as VCC drops to +1.0V, ensuring accurate brownout detection across operating conditions.
Does MAX6824SUK+T include a manual reset input?
No, MAX6824SUK+T does not include a manual reset (MR) input. Unlike MAX6821/MAX6822/MAX6823/MAX6825, the MAX6824 variant omits MR to dedicate Pin 3 exclusively to the watchdog input (WDI). This configuration prioritizes autonomous supervision over operator-initiated reset, making MAX6824SUK+T ideal for sealed or inaccessible systems where physical reset access is impractical.
How does the dual reset output architecture of MAX6824SUK+T work?
MAX6824SUK+T provides two independent push-pull reset outputs: active-low RESET (Pin 1) and active-high RESET (Pin 4). When VCC falls below 3.08V, WDI times out, or during power-up, RESET goes low and RESET goes high simultaneously. Both remain asserted for ≥140ms after VCC recovers. This eliminates external inverters or level shifters needed to drive µPs with differing reset polarity requirements.
What is the watchdog timeout period for MAX6824SUK+T, and how is it cleared?
The MAX6824SUK+T features a nominal 1.6s watchdog timeout period, with min/max values of 0.80s and 2.60s over –40°C to +125°C. The internal timer clears on any rising or falling edge at the WDI pin (Pin 3), or when RESET is asserted. If WDI is left unconnected, the internal driver automatically services the timer every ~1.4s, effectively disabling watchdog supervision without external circuitry.
Can MAX6824SUK+T operate reliably at very low supply voltages?
Yes, MAX6824SUK+T guarantees correct reset output states down to VCC = +1.0V - critical for battery-powered systems nearing end-of-life or operating in ultra-low-power wake-up modes. Its internal circuitry remains functional and deterministic at this level, unlike many supervisors that lose reset validity below +1.8V. This ensures safe, predictable behavior during deep brownout recovery sequences.
