Product details
Overview
MAX6839XSD0-T from Maxim Integrated is a push-pull, active-high voltage supervisor IC designed for ultra-low-voltage microprocessor reset monitoring in portable and battery-powered systems. It features a factory-set 1.050V reset threshold (suffix F), 1.5ms reset timeout (suffix D1), RESET-IN adjustable threshold input (444mV typical), ±3.0% threshold accuracy over -40°C to +85°C, and 7.5µA typical supply current at 1.2V - enabling reliable power-on reset assertion in low-power embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6839XSD0-T datasheet, MAX6839XSD0-T pinout, MAX6839XSD0-T application, or MAX6839XSD0-T equivalent, this device serves as a precision, low-quiescent-current supervisory solution for systems requiring externally adjustable reset thresholds and guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = 0.75V with active-high output logic.
Technical Context
The MAX6839XSD0-T uses an internal 444mV reference comparator to monitor voltage applied to its RESET-IN pin, asserting RESET when that input falls below threshold - decoupling monitored supply voltage from VCC. Its push-pull active-high output drives high during reset and releases low afterward, eliminating external pullup requirements.
VCC must be ≥1.1V to guarantee RESET-IN threshold accuracy; the device operates across VCC = 0.75V to 3.6V and supports manual reset override only via RESET-IN control (no MR pin). Reset timeout is fixed at 1.5ms (D1 suffix) and immune to transients ≤100ns on RESET-IN.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 1.050V (F-suffix), ±3.0% over temperature - sets trip point for external resistive divider on RESET-IN |
| Reset Timeout Period | 1.5ms (D1 suffix) - ensures µP remains held in reset long enough for stable power rail recovery |
| RESET-IN Reference Voltage | 444mV typical - high-impedance input reference enabling low-power divider networks |
| Supply Current | 7.5µA typical at 1.2V - minimizes battery drain in always-on supervision circuits |
| VCC Operating Range | 0.75V to 3.6V - supports operation during deep brownout while maintaining RESET output drive |
| RESET Output Type | Push-pull active-high - eliminates need for external pullup resistor and simplifies interface to µP reset inputs |
| Reset Validity Limit | VCC ≥ 0.75V - guarantees valid HIGH/LOW logic levels on RESET output across full operating range |
Pinout & Package
MAX6839XSD0-T is housed in a 4-pin SC70-4 package (2.0mm × 2.1mm, 0.65mm pitch), optimized for space-constrained portable designs. Pin functions are validated per Maxim's official pin description for MAX6838/MAX6839/MAX6840.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET-IN | High-impedance input referenced to 444mV comparator - connects to external resistive divider to set custom reset threshold |
| 2 | VCC | Power supply input (0.75V–3.6V) and bias source - must be ≥1.1V for guaranteed RESET-IN accuracy |
| 3 | GND | Analog and digital ground reference - requires low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| 4 | RESET | Push-pull active-high output - drives HIGH during reset assertion; sinks current when deasserted (LOW) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6836XSD0-T | Same SC70-4 package and D1 timeout, but fixed 1.050V threshold applied to VCC (not RESET-IN); no adjustable input | Requires direct VCC monitoring - unsuitable when VCC is not the monitored rail or when sub-1.1V accuracy is needed | Select MAX6836XSD0-T only if reset threshold must track VCC directly and external divider is unnecessary |
| MAX6316HUT46+T | Active-high push-pull output, 4.63V fixed threshold, 140ms timeout, SOT-23-5 package - no RESET-IN capability | Designed for higher-voltage systems (>3V); incompatible with ultra-low-voltage monitoring below 1.2V | Choose MAX6316HUT46+T only for legacy 5V/3.3V systems where adjustable threshold and sub-1V operation are irrelevant |
Compared with MAX6836XSD0-T and MAX6316HUT46+T, the MAX6839XSD0-T uniquely supports externally adjustable reset thresholds via RESET-IN while maintaining ultra-low supply current and guaranteed operation down to VCC = 0.75V - making it the only option among the three for precision low-voltage supervision with design flexibility.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MAX6839XSD0-T?
The MAX6839XSD0-T has a factory-coded reset threshold suffix 'F', corresponding to a nominal 1.050V threshold applied to the RESET-IN pin. This value is referenced to the internal 444mV comparator, and the actual trip point is set by an external resistive divider connected to RESET-IN. Accuracy is ±3.0% over the full -40°C to +85°C temperature range.
Does MAX6839XSD0-T monitor VCC directly or use an external input?
The MAX6839XSD0-T does not monitor VCC directly for reset assertion. Instead, it uses the RESET-IN pin as its primary sense input - requiring an external resistive divider to scale the target supply voltage down to the internal 444mV reference. VCC serves only as the device's power supply and bias source, with minimum requirement of 0.75V for operation and 1.1V for guaranteed RESET-IN accuracy.
What is the reset timeout period for MAX6839XSD0-T and how is it selected?
The MAX6839XSD0-T has a fixed 1.5ms reset timeout period, indicated by the 'D1' suffix in the part number. This duration is internally programmed and non-adjustable. It defines the minimum time RESET remains asserted after the RESET-IN voltage rises above threshold, ensuring sufficient hold time for microprocessor initialization before release.
Can MAX6839XSD0-T operate with VCC below 1.1V?
Yes, MAX6839XSD0-T operates with VCC as low as 0.75V and guarantees active-high RESET output functionality down to that level. However, RESET-IN threshold accuracy is only specified for VCC ≥ 1.1V. Below 1.1V, the device continues to assert reset when RESET-IN falls below 444mV, but the absolute trip voltage tolerance may exceed ±3.0%.
Is MAX6839XSD0-T pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX6832–MAX6840 family?
MAX6839XSD0-T shares the same 4-pin SC70-4 package and pinout (RESET-IN, VCC, GND, RESET) with MAX6838XSD0-T and MAX6840XSD0-T. It is not pin-compatible with 3-pin variants (e.g., MAX6832–MAX6837) or with parts having MR or open-drain outputs - pin function mapping is unique to the RESET-IN subgroup.
