Product details
Overview
MAX6827SUT+T from Maxim Integrated is a dual ultra-low-voltage microprocessor supervisory IC in 6-pin SOT23 package, monitoring primary VCC (3.08V threshold) and secondary VCC2 (2.93V threshold), with push-pull active-high RESET output, manual reset input (MR), and 1.6s watchdog timer - used in portable battery-powered equipment for reliable power-up/brownout detection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6827SUT+T datasheet, MAX6827SUT+T pinout, MAX6827SUT+T application, or MAX6827SUT+T equivalent, this page delivers verified circuit role, exact reset thresholds, watchdog timing, supply current down to +1.2V, and validated alternatives for multivoltage µP monitoring systems.
Technical Context
The MAX6827SUT+T implements dual independent voltage monitoring: VCC monitored at factory-trimmed 3.08V (±3% over –40°C to +125°C), and VCC2 at 2.93V, both with 60ppm/°C temperature coefficient and hysteresis. It integrates a 1.6s watchdog timer cleared by WDI edge transitions and a manual reset input with internal 50kΩ pullup.
Its push-pull active-high RESET output drives high (≥0.8×VCC) when deasserted and low (≤0.3V) when asserted, guaranteed functional down to VCC = +1.2V. The device draws only 7–25µA ICC across temperature and operates with no external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Reset Threshold | 3.08V (min 2.97V, max 3.17V at –40°C to +125°C) - sets brownout detection point for primary supply |
| VCC2 Reset Threshold | 2.93V (min 2.83V, max 3.02V at –40°C to +125°C) - factory-trimmed secondary supply monitor |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms minimum - ensures µP remains held in reset long enough for stable power recovery |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s nominal (0.8–2.6s over temperature) - detects firmware hangs in embedded controllers |
| VCC Supply Current | 7µA typical at +3.6V, –40°C to +85°C - enables multi-year battery life in portable instruments |
| Operating Voltage Range | +1.2V to +5.5V - supports operation during deep brownout while maintaining valid RESET state |
| RESET Output Type | Push-pull active-high - eliminates need for external pullup and interfaces directly with µP reset inputs requiring high-true assertion |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-pin SOT23 (U6+1 outline, land pattern 90-0175), RoHS-compliant lead-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RESET | Active-high push-pull reset output | Drives high (≥0.8×VCC) when deasserted; sinks ≤0.3V when asserted - directly compatible with µP reset pins expecting high-true logic |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal comparators, timer, and output stage - must be low-impedance for noise immunity |
| 3 - MR | Manual reset input (active-low) | Internal 50kΩ pullup to VCC; asserts reset when pulled low - enables hardware reset button without external components |
| 4 - WDI | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive; clears 1.6s timer on rising/falling transition - detects µP activity failure within defined timeout window |
| 5 - VCC2 | Secondary supply monitor input | Factory-trimmed 2.93V threshold comparator input - monitors auxiliary rail (e.g., I/O or core voltage) independently of VCC |
| 6 - VCC | Primary supply input and bias source | Power source for internal circuitry and reference; also monitored at 3.08V - defines operating range and powers RESET IN divider network |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage monitoring | Simultaneously supervises VCC (3.08V) and VCC2 (2.93V) with separate comparators - enables robust multivoltage system reliability |
| Guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = +1.2V | Ensures correct reset assertion even during severe brownout - prevents spurious µP execution before supply stabilization |
| No external components required | Integrates pullup resistor on MR, precision references, and timeout delay - reduces BOM count and PCB area in space-constrained designs |
| Immunity to short negative VCC transients | Withstands ≤20µs glitches 100mV below threshold without false reset - improves noise resilience in electrically noisy environments |
| 1.6s watchdog timer with edge-triggered clear | Resets only on WDI transitions (not level), preventing stuck-loop masking - increases firmware fault detection fidelity |
Applications
| Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment | Embedded Controllers |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Handheld medical meters and IoT sensors powered by single Li-ion or coin-cell batteries. IC Role / Device Role: Dual-rail supervisor ensuring safe boot and brownout recovery for main processor and sensor interface rails. Use Value: 7µA quiescent current extends battery life; 3.08V/2.93V thresholds match common 3.3V/3.0V rail configurations. |
Use Scenario: Industrial PLC modules with isolated µP, communication ICs, and analog front-ends. IC Role / Device Role: Centralized power integrity monitor coordinating reset sequencing across multiple voltage domains. Use Value: Push-pull active-high RESET eliminates external pullup, simplifying layout; 1.6s watchdog enforces firmware liveness. |
| Intelligent Instruments | Critical µP Monitoring |
Use Scenario: Precision digital multimeters and oscilloscopes with FPGA-based signal processing and display subsystems. IC Role / Device Role: Supervisor for FPGA configuration voltage (VCC2) and µP core supply (VCC), ensuring synchronized reset release. Use Value: Factory-trimmed thresholds eliminate calibration overhead; 140ms timeout prevents premature code execution. |
Use Scenario: Automotive body control modules and safety-critical microcontroller units requiring ASIL-B–compatible supervision. IC Role / Device Role: Fail-safe reset generator asserting reset on any monitored rail collapse, MR activation, or watchdog timeout. Use Value: Valid operation down to +1.2V VCC ensures deterministic behavior during undervoltage faults; no external parts reduce field failure risk. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6827SUT-T | Same functionality and pinout, but leaded (SnPb) packaging instead of lead-free (+T) | Used where RoHS exemption applies or legacy assembly processes require Pb-based solder | Select MAX6827SUT-T only if lead-free compliance is not required and SnPb reflow is specified. |
| MAX6829SUT+T | Replaces VCC2 monitor with factory-trimmed 2.313V threshold (Z suffix); retains same VCC=3.08V and push-pull RESET | Targets systems with 2.5V secondary rail instead of 3.0V - e.g., mixed-signal SoCs with 2.5V I/O and 3.3V core | Choose MAX6829SUT+T when secondary supply is 2.5V and tighter VCC2 tolerance (±0.04V) is needed. |
Compared with MAX6827SUT+T, MAX6827SUT-T offers identical electrical performance in leaded packaging for legacy manufacturing, while MAX6829SUT+T shifts VCC2 monitoring to 2.313V for 2.5V-rail compatibility - neither is pin-compatible drop-in replacement for different threshold requirements.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC reset threshold voltage for MAX6827SUT+T?
The MAX6827SUT+T has a factory-trimmed VCC reset threshold of 3.08V, with guaranteed min/max values of 2.97V and 3.17V across the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +125°C). This threshold is fixed by the "S" suffix per the Threshold Suffix Guide and applies specifically to the MAX6827SUT+T variant.
Does MAX6827SUT+T support monitoring a secondary voltage lower than 2.93V?
No - the MAX6827SUT+T uses pin 5 (VCC2) for factory-trimmed secondary monitoring at 2.93V and does not support user-adjustable thresholds. For sub-2.93V secondary monitoring, the MAX6826/MAX6827/MAX6828 family requires the RESET IN pin (pin 5), but MAX6827SUT+T assigns pin 5 to VCC2 and lacks RESET IN functionality.
What is the watchdog timeout period of MAX6827SUT+T and how is it cleared?
The MAX6827SUT+T features a nominal 1.6s watchdog timeout period (0.8–2.6s over temperature), cleared only by rising or falling edges on the WDI pin (pin 4). Level-holding WDI high or low for longer than the timeout triggers reset - edge sensitivity prevents masking of firmware hangs in infinite loops.
Can MAX6827SUT+T operate with VCC below 1.8V?
Yes - the MAX6827SUT+T is fully specified down to VCC = +1.2V over temperature and guarantees valid RESET output behavior (push-pull high/low states) across that range. Its minimum operating voltage is +1.2V, enabling use in deep brownout scenarios where other supervisors fail.
Is MAX6827SUT+T pin-compatible with MAX6828SUT+T?
No - although both are 6-pin SOT23 devices, MAX6827SUT+T uses pin 5 as VCC2 (2.93V monitor) and provides push-pull active-high RESET, whereas MAX6828SUT+T uses pin 5 as RESET IN (0.63V adjustable threshold) and provides open-drain RESET. Pin functions differ, making them incompatible for direct substitution.
