Product details
Overview
MAX6829SDUT-T from Maxim Integrated is a dual ultra-low-voltage microprocessor supervisory circuit in 6-pin SOT23 package, designed to monitor primary supply (VCC) at 2.93V and secondary supply (VCC2) at 2.188V with ±0.05V accuracy over –40°C to +125°C, assert active-low push-pull RESET on fault, and support manual reset and 1.6s watchdog timeout - used in battery-powered embedded controllers requiring reliable brownout detection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6829SDUT-T datasheet, MAX6829SDUT-T pinout, MAX6829SDUT-T application, or MAX6829SDUT-T equivalent, this page delivers verified threshold voltages, reset timing behavior, VCC2 monitoring capability, watchdog input timing constraints, and real-world substitution guidance for multivoltage system design.
Technical Context
The MAX6829SDUT-T implements dual independent voltage monitoring: one factory-trimmed comparator for VCC2 (2.188V nominal, ±0.05V over temperature), and one preprogrammed VCC threshold (2.93V, S-suffix). It uses internal BiCMOS comparators with 60ppm/°C temperature coefficient and 2.5mV hysteresis on RESET IN path.
Its watchdog timer clears on any WDI edge (50ns minimum pulse width), times out after 1.6s (min 1.12s, max 2.4s over temperature), and asserts reset for ≥140ms (min) after recovery. The push-pull RESET output drives low to ≤0.3V at 100µA sink current and high to ≥0.8×VCC at 200µA source current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Threshold | 2.93V (S-suffix), ±0.05V over –40°C to +125°C - sets primary supply brownout detection point |
| VCC2 Threshold | 2.188V (Y-suffix), ±0.05V over –40°C to +125°C - factory-trimmed secondary supply monitor |
| Reset Timeout Period | 140ms (min), 200ms (typ), 280ms (max) - ensures µP remains held in reset long enough for stable power recovery |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s (nominal), 1.12–2.4s range over temperature - provides software execution supervision with minimal false triggers |
| RESET Output Type | Active-low push-pull - eliminates external pull-up resistor, supports direct interface to µP reset pins |
| Operating Voltage Range | VCC = 1.2V to 5.5V (–40°C to +125°C) - guarantees valid reset assertion down to 1.2V supply |
| Supply Current | 7µA (typ) at VCC = 3.6V, –40°C to +85°C - enables use in always-on battery-backed systems |
Pinout & Package
MAX6829SDUT-T is housed in a 6-pin SOT23 package (U6+1 outline, land pattern 90-0175), with 1.0mm pitch, 2.9mm × 1.6mm footprint, and lead-free RoHS-compliant construction (designated by "+T" suffix; "-T" indicates standard leaded).
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output - asserts low on VCC/VCC2 undervoltage, MR low, or WDI timeout; holds for ≥140ms after recovery |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal comparators and logic - must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 3 | MR | Manual reset input (active-low) - internal 50kΩ pullup to VCC; 1µs minimum pulse width required to trigger reset |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input - toggling within 1.6s prevents reset; unconnected or three-stated disables watchdog function |
| 5 | VCC2 | Secondary supply input - connects directly to monitored 2.188V rail; no external components required |
| 6 | VCC | Primary supply input - powers device and sets VCC threshold at 2.93V; operates down to 1.2V with guaranteed reset validity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage monitoring | Simultaneously supervises VCC (2.93V) and VCC2 (2.188V) with separate comparators - eliminates need for two discrete supervisors in dual-rail systems |
| Factory-trimmed VCC2 threshold | 2.188V ±0.05V over full temperature range - removes calibration burden and resistor-divider error in low-voltage I/O rail monitoring |
| Guaranteed reset validity to VCC = 1.2V | RESET output remains functional and meets VOL/VOH specs down to 1.2V supply - ensures reliable reset during deep brownout |
| No external components required | Integrated pullup on MR, fixed thresholds, and self-contained watchdog - reduces BOM count and PCB area vs. discrete solutions |
| Immunity to short negative VCC transients | Withstands ≤20µs negative glitches of up to 100mV below threshold without spurious reset - improves noise robustness in noisy power environments |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6830SDUT-T | Active-high push-pull RESET output instead of active-low; identical VCC/VCC2 thresholds and watchdog timing | Required where host µP expects active-high reset assertion (e.g., certain Renesas RX series) | Select MAX6830SDUT-T only if system-level reset polarity demands high-active signaling; otherwise MAX6829SDUT-T is drop-in compatible |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Single-supply monitor (3.3V only), no VCC2 input; 200ms fixed reset timeout; requires external pull-up on open-drain RESET | Suitable for simpler single-rail systems but cannot replace dual-monitoring function without adding second IC | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR only when monitoring only VCC is sufficient and board space allows for external pull-up resistor |
Compared with MAX6830SDUT-T, MAX6829SDUT-T offers native active-low reset polarity for broader µP compatibility; compared with TPS3808G33DBVR, it provides integrated dual-rail monitoring and push-pull drive - reducing component count and eliminating layout sensitivity to pull-up placement.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC2 threshold voltage for MAX6829SDUT-T?
The MAX6829SDUT-T has a factory-trimmed VCC2 threshold of 2.188V, with ±0.05V tolerance over the full –40°C to +125°C operating temperature range. This value is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "VCC2 Reset Threshold" for the Y-suffix variant, and applies directly to MAX6829SDUT-T as confirmed in the Standard Versions Table and Selector Guide.
Does MAX6829SDUT-T support manual reset functionality?
Yes, MAX6829SDUT-T includes a dedicated MR (manual reset) input on Pin 3, with an internal 50kΩ pullup to VCC. Driving MR low for ≥1µs forces an immediate reset assertion, which remains active for the full reset timeout period (≥140ms) after MR returns high. No external components are needed for basic manual reset implementation.
What is the watchdog timeout behavior of MAX6829SDUT-T?
The MAX6829SDUT-T watchdog timer has a nominal timeout of 1.6s, with a guaranteed range of 1.12s to 2.4s over –40°C to +85°C and 0.80s to 2.60s over –40°C to +125°C. It clears on any rising or falling edge at WDI (Pin 4); leaving WDI unconnected disables the watchdog function entirely, as the internal driver services the timer every ~1.4s.
Can MAX6829SDUT-T monitor a 1.8V supply as VCC2?
No - MAX6829SDUT-T is configured with Y-suffix VCC2 threshold of 2.188V and is not rated for reliable operation at 1.8V on the VCC2 pin. For 1.8V monitoring, select MAX6829WDUT-T (W-suffix, 1.665V) or MAX6829VDUT-T (V-suffix, 1.575V), as listed in the Standard Versions Table. Using MAX6829SDUT-T on 1.8V VCC2 would result in premature or missed reset assertion.
What package type and RoHS status does MAX6829SDUT-T use?
MAX6829SDUT-T uses a 6-pin SOT23 package (outline U6+1, land pattern 90-0175) with leaded termination ("-T" suffix). It is not RoHS-compliant by default; for lead-free compliance, the part number must be ordered as MAX6829SDUT+T, per Maxim's packaging specification note in the datasheet.
