Product details
Overview
MAX6829SVUT-T from Maxim Integrated is a dual ultra-low-voltage microprocessor supervisory IC in 6-pin SOT23 package, monitoring primary supply (VCC) at 2.93V and secondary supply (VCC2) at 1.575V with ±0.025V accuracy over -40°C to +125°C, featuring active-low push-pull RESET output, manual reset input (MR), watchdog timer (1.6s nominal timeout), and guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = +1.0V - used in battery-powered embedded controllers for reliable power-up/brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6829SVUT-T datasheet, MAX6829SVUT-T pinout, MAX6829SVUT-T application, or MAX6829SVUT-T equivalent, key selection considerations include its factory-trimmed dual-threshold architecture (VCC = 2.93V, VCC2 = 1.575V), push-pull RESET output drive capability (3.2mA sink at 4.25V), 140ms minimum reset timeout, immunity to sub-20µs negative VCC transients, and operation across industrial temperature range without external components.
Technical Context
The MAX6829SVUT-T implements a dual-comparator architecture: one precision bandgap-referenced comparator monitors VCC against a fixed 2.93V threshold (S-suffix), while a second comparator monitors VCC2 against a factory-trimmed 1.575V threshold (V-suffix), both with 60ppm/°C temperature coefficient and 2×VTH hysteresis. It integrates a 1.6s watchdog timer cleared by WDI edge transitions and a 140ms reset timeout delay generator.
Its push-pull RESET output asserts low when VCC < 2.93V, VCC2 < 1.575V, MR is pulled low, or watchdog times out; RESET remains low for ≥140ms after all conditions clear. The device draws only 7µA typical ICC at VCC = +3.6V and operates with no external components, supporting stable reset assertion even during VCC decay to +1.0V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Threshold | 2.93V (S-suffix), ±0.025V over -40°C to +125°C - sets precise power-fail detection point for primary supply |
| VCC2 Threshold | 1.575V (V-suffix), ±0.025V over -40°C to +125°C - factory-trimmed secondary supply monitor for core voltage domains |
| Reset Timeout | 140ms minimum - ensures µP completes full initialization before release from reset state |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6827SVUT-T | Same VCC (2.93V) and VCC2 (1.575V) thresholds, but active-high push-pull RESET output | Requires µP with active-high reset input; incompatible with standard active-low reset pins without level translation | Select only when target µP mandates active-high reset assertion and board layout allows signal polarity change |
| MAX6831SVUT-T | Same thresholds and temperature range, but open-drain RESET output instead of push-pull | Needs external pullup resistor; supports wired-OR reset buses and bidirectional µP reset pins (e.g., MC68HC11) | Choose when system requires shared reset bus or µP has bidirectional reset I/O; adds BOM item and layout constraint |
Compared with MAX6829SVUT-T, MAX6827SVUT-T changes reset polarity (active-high), requiring µP interface redesign, while MAX6831SVUT-T replaces push-pull with open-drain output, adding external pullup and enabling multi-source reset arbitration - neither is pin-compatible, and both require PCB modifications for direct substitution.

FAQ
What is the exact VCC and VCC2 reset threshold voltage for MAX6829SVUT-T?
The MAX6829SVUT-T has a VCC reset threshold of 2.93V (S-suffix) and a VCC2 reset threshold of 1.575V (V-suffix), both specified over -40°C to +125°C with ±0.025V tolerance. These values are factory-trimmed and documented in the Electrical Characteristics table of the MAX6826–MAX6831 datasheet. The MAX6829SVUT-T does not support user-adjustable thresholds - VCC2 is fixed, unlike the adjustable RESET IN input found on MAX6826/MAX6827/MAX6828 variants.
Does MAX6829SVUT-T support manual reset and watchdog functionality?
Yes, MAX6829SVUT-T includes both manual reset (MR) and watchdog (WDI) inputs. MR is an active-low input with internal 50kΩ pullup; asserting it low forces reset for ≥140ms after release. WDI is edge-sensitive - any rising or falling transition clears the 1.6s watchdog timer; failure to toggle WDI within that period triggers reset. Both features operate independently of VCC and VCC2 monitoring and are fully functional across the full -40°C to +125°C temperature range.
What is the RESET output configuration of MAX6829SVUT-T, and what drive strength does it provide?
The MAX6829SVUT-T features an active-low push-pull RESET output. It can sink up to 3.2mA at VCC = +4.25V, 1.2mA at VCC = +2.55V, and 50µA at VCC = +1.2V, with VOL ≤ 0.3V under all conditions. Because it is push-pull, no external pullup resistor is required - simplifying design and reducing component count. This differs from MAX6828/MAX6831 (open-drain) and MAX6827 (active-high push-pull) variants.
Can MAX6829SVUT-T monitor voltages below 1.0V, such as 0.9V core supplies?
No, MAX6829SVUT-T cannot monitor voltages below its factory-trimmed VCC2 threshold of 1.575V. While the broader MAX6826–MAX6831 family includes versions with VCC2 thresholds as low as 0.833V (E-suffix) or 0.788V (D-suffix), the MAX6829SVUT-T specifically uses the V-suffix for VCC2 = 1.575V. For sub-1.0V monitoring, consider MAX6829EVUT-T (E-suffix, 0.833V) or MAX6829DVUT-T (D-suffix, 0.788V), which share identical pinout and functionality except for the VCC2 threshold value.
Is MAX6829SVUT-T compatible with lead-free soldering processes?
Yes, MAX6829SVUT-T is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020. Its SOT23 package supports peak reflow temperatures up to +260°C (per 10-second duration), and the "-T" suffix denotes standard lead-free packaging. For explicit lead-free ordering, replace "-T" with "+T" per Maxim's ordering convention (e.g., MAX6829SVUT+T), though both versions meet RoHS and JEDEC standards. The device also withstands leaded soldering profiles with 300°C maximum lead temperature for 10 seconds.
