Product details
Overview
MAX6827LUT+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual ultra-low-voltage microprocessor supervisory circuit in 6-pin SOT23 package, designed to monitor primary supply (VCC) and user-adjustable secondary input (RESET IN), assert active-high push-pull RESET, and provide manual reset and watchdog timer functions. It guarantees valid reset operation down to VCC = +1.2V over –40°C to +125°C, supports 3.08V VCC threshold (T-suffix), and delivers 140ms minimum reset timeout - used in portable equipment requiring robust brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6827LUT+T datasheet, MAX6827LUT+T pinout, MAX6827LUT+T application, or MAX6827LUT+T equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, exact pin functionality, real-world use scenarios for multivoltage embedded systems, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional differences.
Technical Context
The MAX6827LUT+T integrates dual-supply monitoring with independent comparators: one factory-trimmed for VCC (3.08V nominal, T-suffix), another high-impedance RESET IN input with 0.63V internal reference enabling user-defined thresholds down to +0.63V via external resistor divider. Its active-high push-pull RESET output drives logic-high during reset assertion and returns to high-impedance state post-timeout.
It features a 1.6s nominal watchdog timeout period cleared by WDI edge transitions, a 50kΩ internal MR pullup, and immunity to negative VCC transients ≤20µs at 100mV overdrive. Reset remains valid across full temperature range (–40°C to +125°C) and operates with VCC as low as +1.2V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Threshold | 3.08V (T-suffix), ±0.07V tolerance over –40°C to +125°C - sets precise power-fail detection point for 3.3V systems |
| RESET IN Threshold | 0.63V (typ), 0.61–0.65V range - enables monitoring of sub-1V rails (e.g., core voltages) using external resistor divider |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms (min), 200ms (typ), 280ms (max) - ensures µP completes full initialization before release |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s (nominal), 0.8–2.6s range over temperature - provides reliable software hang detection without excessive latency |
| Supply Current | 7–25µA over –40°C to +125°C at VCC = +3.6V - enables battery-powered operation for >10 years in low-duty-cycle systems |
| Operating Voltage Range | +1.2V to +5.5V (VCC), –40°C to +125°C - supports wide-input industrial and automotive applications |
| RESET Output Type | Active-high push-pull - eliminates need for external pullup and directly interfaces with µP reset inputs requiring active-high assertion |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin SOT23 (U6+1 outline, land pattern 90-0175), RoHS-compliant lead-free (+T suffix).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-high push-pull reset output - asserts logic-high during fault condition; sinks 100µA at VCC ≥1.2V, sources 200µA at VCC ≥1.8V |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal comparators and logic - must be connected to system ground plane for accurate threshold sensing |
| 3 | MR | Manual-reset input, active-low, 50kΩ internal pullup - pulling low forces reset; unconnected defaults to high, disabling manual reset |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input - toggling within 1.6s prevents reset; left floating disables watchdog (internal driver clears timer every ~1.4s) |
| 5 | RESET IN | User-adjustable monitor input - high-impedance node referenced to 0.63V; connects to resistor divider for custom voltage trip points |
| 6 | VCC | Main supply input - powers device and sets VCC threshold comparator; valid operation guaranteed down to +1.2V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent monitoring | Simultaneously tracks VCC (3.08V) and user-defined RESET IN voltage - enables coordinated reset for primary and auxiliary rails |
| Guaranteed reset validity | RESET output remains functional down to VCC = +1.2V across full temperature range - ensures fail-safe behavior during deep brownouts |
| No external components required | Internal 50kΩ MR pullup, 0.63V RESET IN reference, and precision voltage references eliminate discrete resistors and capacitors |
| Immunity to short VCC glitches | Rejects negative transients ≤20µs at 100mV below threshold - prevents spurious resets in noisy power environments |
| Low quiescent current | 7µA typical at +3.6V/25°C, ≤25µA max at +125°C - extends battery life in portable instrumentation and sensor nodes |
Applications
| Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment | Embedded Controllers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6826LUT+T | Active-low push-pull RESET output; identical VCC threshold (3.08V), same pinout and RESET IN capability | Requires inverted reset logic on µP side; not compatible with active-high reset inputs without level-shifting | Select when target µP accepts active-low reset assertion and board layout already accommodates push-pull drive |
| MAX6829LUT+T | Replaces RESET IN with factory-trimmed VCC2 monitor (2.313V); retains active-high RESET; same VCC threshold (3.08V) | Eliminates external resistor divider but fixes secondary threshold - unsuitable for variable-core-voltage designs | Choose when secondary supply is stable 2.5V rail and design prioritizes component count reduction over flexibility |
Compared with MAX6827LUT+T, MAX6826LUT+T requires µP-level inversion of reset logic, while MAX6829LUT+T trades adjustable secondary monitoring for fixed 2.313V VCC2 sensing - both share identical timing, temperature range, and supply current performance.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC reset threshold voltage for MAX6827LUT+T?
The MAX6827LUT+T has a factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold of 3.08V (nominal), with guaranteed range of 2.97V to 3.17V over –40°C to +125°C per the T-suffix specification. This value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "VCC Reset Threshold" for MAX68__T devices and applies specifically to the MAX6827LUT+T variant.
Does MAX6827LUT+T support monitoring a 1.2V supply rail?
Yes, the MAX6827LUT+T supports monitoring a 1.2V rail using its RESET IN pin. With an internal 0.63V reference, a resistor divider (e.g., R1 = 90.9kΩ, R2 = 100kΩ) scales 1.2V down to 0.63V at the pin. The device guarantees RESET IN threshold accuracy of 0.61–0.65V over temperature, enabling precise 1.2V supervision without external comparators.
What is the function of Pin 1 (RESET) on MAX6827LUT+T?
Pin 1 of the MAX6827LUT+T is the active-high push-pull RESET output. It drives logic-high during reset assertion (e.g., when VCC < 3.08V or RESET IN < 0.63V) and returns to high-impedance state after the 140ms timeout. Unlike open-drain variants, it does not require an external pullup resistor and directly interfaces with µPs expecting active-high reset signals.
Can the watchdog timer in MAX6827LUT+T be disabled?
Yes, the watchdog timer in MAX6827LUT+T is disabled by leaving the WDI pin (Pin 4) unconnected. In this state, the internal driver toggles WDI every ~1.4s, preventing timeout. Alternatively, connecting WDI to a three-stated buffer also disables the watchdog. No configuration register or external command is needed - it is hardware-controlled.
What is the minimum VCC voltage at which MAX6827LUT+T guarantees correct reset operation?
The MAX6827LUT+T guarantees correct reset operation down to VCC = +1.2V over the full temperature range (–40°C to +125°C). Below this, reset behavior is not specified. This is explicitly stated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables, distinguishing it from versions rated only to +1.0V at 0°C to +85°C.
