Product details
Overview
MAX6862UK225+ from Maxim Integrated is a nanopower microprocessor supervisory circuit in 5-pin SOT23 package, featuring pin-selectable 10ms/150ms reset timeout, active-high push-pull RESET output, manual reset (MR) input, and guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = +1.1V. It monitors supply voltage with factory-trimmed 2.235V threshold and asserts reset during power-up, brownout, or MR assertion.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6862UK225+ datasheet, MAX6862UK225+ pinout, MAX6862UK225+ application, or MAX6862UK225+ equivalent, this device supports low-power portable systems requiring precise voltage monitoring, deterministic reset timing, and manual recovery without external components.
Technical Context
The MAX6862UK225+ implements a precision bandgap-based voltage monitor with ±2.5% threshold accuracy over temperature, coupled with a digital timeout generator triggered by VCC drop, MR assertion, or watchdog expiration (though MAX6862 lacks WDI). Its CT pin selects between two fixed minimum reset timeout periods-10ms (D1) or 150ms (D3)-with typical values of 15ms and 225ms respectively.
It uses BiCMOS process technology (2848 transistors) to achieve ultra-low 170nA typical supply current at 2.5V, enabling operation in battery-critical applications. The active-high push-pull RESET output drives high with VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC (at ISOURCE = 500µA), ensuring reliable µP reset signaling across its 1.2V–5.5V operating range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold Voltage | 2.235V (factory-trimmed, ±2.5% tolerance); ensures reliable detection of 2.2V nominal supply brownout |
| Supply Current (ICC) | 170nA typ at 2.5V; enables multi-year battery life in always-on medical or portable devices |
| Reset Timeout Options | Pin-selectable: 10ms min (CT = low) or 150ms min (CT = high); provides flexibility for fast-boot vs. slow-peripheral initialization |
| RESET Output Type | Active-high push-pull; eliminates need for external pullup and guarantees VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC into 500µA load |
| Minimum Valid VCC | +1.1V; guarantees RESET remains valid during deep brownout, supporting µP hold-up until safe shutdown |
| MR Input Logic | Active-low with 10kΩ internal pullup to VCC; accepts CMOS levels and requires no external biasing |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial and portable consumer environments |
Pinout & Package
MAX6862UK225+ is housed in a lead-free 5-pin SOT23-5 package (JEDEC MO-178AA), footprint-compatible with industry-standard supervisory ICs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-high push-pull reset output; drives high during reset assertion, referenced to VCC |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuitry and reset timing; must be connected to system ground plane |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC (10kΩ); initiates reset when pulled ≤0.3×VCC |
| 4 | CT | Reset timeout select input; logic low selects 10ms min timeout, logic high selects 150ms min timeout |
| 5 | VCC | Supply voltage input and monitored rail; operates from 1.2V to 5.5V; requires 0.1µF bypass capacitor to GND |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low supply current | 170nA typical at 2.5V enables >10-year coin-cell operation in glucose monitors |
| Pin-selectable reset delay | CT pin toggles between 10ms (fast recovery) and 150ms (slow peripheral settling) without firmware change |
| Guaranteed reset validity | RESET remains functional down to VCC = +1.1V, ensuring safe state retention during deep brownout |
| No external components required | Integrated MR pullup, precision threshold, and timeout generator eliminate BOM cost and layout area |
| Immunity to short VCC transients | Rejects ≤40µs transients at 100mV overdrive, preventing spurious resets in noisy power rails |
Applications
| Glucose Monitors | Patient Monitors |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Portable handheld glucose meters powered by CR2032 coin cell with intermittent sensor activation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervisory IC asserting active-high RESET to ARM Cortex-M0 during cold start and brownout, with 150ms timeout allowing ADC calibration.

| MP3 Players | PDAs |
Use Scenario: Flash-based MP3 player with Li-ion battery and USB charging, requiring clean boot after charge insertion. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Active-high RESET generator asserting reset on VCC ramp, with CT = low for 10ms timeout to enable rapid UI wake-up. Use Value: Push-pull output eliminates pullup resistor, saving PCB space and leakage; 5-pin SOT23 fits tight form factors. |
Use Scenario: Legacy PDA with aging battery and variable load causing 3.3V rail instability during wireless sync. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervisory circuit monitoring 3.3V supply and providing manual reset via front-panel button (MR input). Use Value: Internal 10kΩ MR pullup removes external bias component; 170nA ICC minimizes standby drain during idle periods. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3837K225DBVR | Fixed 2.25V threshold, 200ms reset timeout, open-drain RESET, 1.6µA ICC | Lacks pin-selectable timeout and MR input; requires external pullup; higher supply current limits battery life | Choose if open-drain interface to 5V logic is required and timeout flexibility is not needed |
| MAX6316LUK225+ | 2.25V threshold, 140ms timeout, active-low open-drain RESET, 1.2µA ICC, no MR or CT pin | No manual reset capability; incompatible RESET polarity; higher ICC reduces energy efficiency | Consider only for legacy designs where active-low open-drain is mandatory and MR is unused |
Compared with TPS3837K225DBVR and MAX6316LUK225+, the MAX6862UK225+ delivers 7× lower supply current, pin-selectable reset timing, integrated MR pullup, and active-high push-pull output-enabling longer battery life and simpler board design in portable medical and consumer electronics.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6862UK225+?
The MAX6862UK225+ has a factory-trimmed reset threshold voltage of 2.235V, with ±2.5% tolerance over temperature (-40°C to +85°C). This value is confirmed in Table 2 (Threshold Suffix Guide) of the datasheet, where suffix "225" corresponds to VTH = 2.235V (min 2.180V, typ 2.235V, max 2.290V). The MAX6862UK225+ maintains this accuracy without external calibration.
Does the MAX6862UK225+ include a watchdog timer function?
No, the MAX6862UK225+ does not include a watchdog timer. It belongs to the MAX6861/MAX6862/MAX6863 subgroup, which features pin-selectable reset timeout (via CT pin) and manual reset (MR), but omits the WDI input and watchdog circuitry found in MAX6864–MAX6869 variants. The MAX6862UK225+ relies solely on VCC monitoring and MR assertion for reset generation.
How is the reset timeout period selected on the MAX6862UK225+?
The reset timeout period on the MAX6862UK225+ is selected using the CT pin: connect CT to GND for 10ms minimum timeout (D1 option), or connect CT to VCC for 150ms minimum timeout (D3 option). Typical values are 15ms and 225ms respectively, as specified in Table 1 of the datasheet. This selection is static and takes effect immediately upon power-up or reset release.
What is the RESET output type and drive capability of the MAX6862UK225+?
The MAX6862UK225+ features an active-high push-pull RESET output. When asserted, it drives high with VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC (tested at ISOURCE = 500µA and VCC ≥ 2.38V). When deasserted, it pulls low to VOL ≤ 0.3V (at ISINK = 1.2mA and VCC ≥ 2.38V). This eliminates the need for an external pullup resistor and ensures robust interfacing with µP reset inputs.
Is the MAX6862UK225+ compatible with other SOT23-5 supervisory ICs?
Yes, the MAX6862UK225+ uses a standard 5-pin SOT23-5 package (JEDEC MO-178AA) with pinout matching the MAX6861/MAX6863 family: Pin 1 = RESET, Pin 2 = GND, Pin 3 = MR, Pin 4 = CT, Pin 5 = VCC. It is pin-compatible with TPS3836/TPS3837/TPS3838 per datasheet Feature list, enabling drop-in replacement where CT functionality and active-high RESET are acceptable.
