Product details
Overview
MAX6827RUT+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual ultra-low-voltage microprocessor supervisory IC in 6-pin SOT23 package, designed to monitor primary supply (VCC) at 2.85V nominal and secondary supply (VCC2) at 2.93V nominal, with push-pull active-high RESET output, manual reset input (MR), and 1.6s watchdog timeout - used in battery-powered embedded controllers requiring reliable brownout detection and system-level reset coordination.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6827RUT+T datasheet, MAX6827RUT+T pinout, MAX6827RUT+T application, or MAX6827RUT+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = +1.2V, 140ms minimum reset timeout, immunity to short negative VCC transients, and factory-trimmed dual-threshold monitoring without external components.
Technical Context
The MAX6827RUT+T integrates two independent voltage comparators: one for VCC (threshold = 2.85V ±3%, temperature-compensated) and one for VCC2 (threshold = 2.93V ±3%), both feeding an OR logic gate that triggers reset assertion when either falls below threshold. Its internal 1.6s watchdog timer clears on any WDI edge and asserts reset if no transition occurs within timeout.
Reset assertion is synchronized with a 140ms minimum timeout delay generator; the push-pull RESET output drives high during reset and returns low after timeout, with VOH ≥ 0.8 × VCC at ISOURCE = 200µA. MR features a 50kΩ internal pullup and supports CMOS-logic-level manual reset initiation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Threshold | 2.85V (min 2.83V, max 3.02V at -40°C to +125°C) - sets primary supply brownout detection point for 3.3V systems |
| VCC2 Threshold | 2.93V (min 2.83V, max 3.02V at -40°C to +125°C) - factory-trimmed secondary supply monitor for I/O rail supervision |
| Reset Timeout | 140ms minimum - ensures µP completes power stabilization before release from reset state |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s nominal (min 1.12s, max 2.4s at -40°C to +85°C) - provides software execution monitoring with glitch rejection |
| RESET Output Type | Push-pull active-high - eliminates need for external pullup and supports direct interface to µP reset inputs requiring high-active assertion |
| Operating Voltage Range | +1.2V to +5.5V (VCC) - guarantees functional reset assertion even during deep brownout conditions |
| Supply Current | 7µA typical at VCC = +3.6V, TA = -40°C to +85°C - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered portable equipment |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin SOT23 (U6+1 outline, land pattern 90-0175), RoHS-compliant lead-free construction.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-high push-pull reset output; drives high during reset assertion and low otherwise; compatible with µP reset inputs requiring high-active signaling |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal comparators, timers, and output drivers; must be connected to system ground plane |
| 3 | MR | Manual reset input, active-low; internally pulled up to VCC at 50kΩ; asserting low forces reset for full timeout period |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input; toggling within 1.6s prevents reset; unconnected or three-stated disables watchdog function |
| 5 | VCC2 | Secondary supply input; monitored against factory-trimmed 2.93V threshold; not adjustable |
| 6 | VCC | Primary supply input; monitored against 2.85V threshold; powers internal circuitry and defines reset timing behavior |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage monitoring | Simultaneous supervision of VCC (2.85V) and VCC2 (2.93V) enables multivoltage system reliability without external resistors |
| Guaranteed reset validity to VCC = +1.2V | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during severe brownout, critical for automotive and industrial power sequencing |
| 140ms minimum reset timeout | Prevents premature µP release before power rails stabilize, eliminating boot failures in low-noise embedded applications |
| 1.6s watchdog timer with edge-triggered clear | Monitors firmware liveness via WDI transitions; immune to stuck-at states due to hardware-level timeout enforcement |
| No external components required | Reduces BOM count and PCB area; eliminates resistor-divider tuning and associated temperature drift errors |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6827RUT-T | Same functionality and pinout, but leaded (SnPb) packaging instead of lead-free (+T suffix) | Used where RoHS exemption applies or legacy assembly processes require Pb-based solder | Select MAX6827RUT-T only if lead-free compliance is not required and SnPb reflow is specified in manufacturing flow |
| MAX6829RUT+T | Replaces VCC2 monitor with user-adjustable RESET IN input (0.63V threshold); no factory-trimmed VCC2 | Suitable when secondary rail voltage varies or requires custom threshold setting via resistor divider | Choose MAX6829RUT+T only if VCC2 monitoring is unnecessary and adjustable auxiliary reset is preferred over fixed dual-rail supervision |
Compared with MAX6827RUT+T, MAX6827RUT-T offers identical electrical performance but requires Pb-compatible reflow, while MAX6829RUT+T trades fixed VCC2 monitoring for flexible RESET IN adjustment - making MAX6827RUT+T optimal for systems needing guaranteed dual-rail brownout detection in lead-free production.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC reset threshold voltage for MAX6827RUT+T?
The MAX6827RUT+T has a nominal VCC reset threshold of 2.85V, with guaranteed range of 2.83V to 3.02V over -40°C to +125°C operating temperature. This threshold is factory-trimmed and temperature-compensated to ±3% accuracy, enabling precise brownout detection for 3.3V systems without calibration.
Does MAX6827RUT+T support monitoring of a secondary voltage lower than 2.93V?
No - the MAX6827RUT+T uses a factory-trimmed VCC2 input with fixed 2.93V threshold and does not support user-adjustable secondary monitoring. For sub-2.93V secondary rail supervision, consider MAX6826/MAX6827/MAX6828 variants with RESET IN pin (0.63V threshold) or MAX6829/MAX6830/MAX6831 with VCC2 trim down to 0.788V.
What is the function of the RESET pin on MAX6827RUT+T?
The RESET pin on MAX6827RUT+T is an active-high push-pull output that drives high during reset assertion (when VCC or VCC2 drops below threshold, MR is pulled low, or watchdog times out) and returns low after the 140ms timeout expires. It interfaces directly with µP reset inputs requiring high-active signaling without external pullup.
Can MAX6827RUT+T operate reliably at VCC = +1.2V?
Yes - the MAX6827RUT+T is guaranteed to assert valid reset output down to VCC = +1.2V across -40°C to +125°C, with full functionality including VCC/VCC2 monitoring, MR response, and watchdog timing. Below +1.2V, reset behavior is not characterized per datasheet Absolute Maximum Ratings.
How does the watchdog timer in MAX6827RUT+T respond to WDI signal edges?
The MAX6827RUT+T watchdog timer clears on any rising or falling edge at WDI and begins counting anew. If no edge occurs within 1.6s (nominal), it triggers reset assertion for the full 140ms timeout. The timer remains cleared while reset is asserted and resumes counting only after reset deasserts.
