Product details
Overview
The MAX6864UK31D1S+ from Maxim Integrated is a nanopower microprocessor supervisory circuit in a 5-pin SOT23 package, combining voltage monitoring (reset threshold = +3.075V), manual reset input (MR), and watchdog timer (timeout = 3.3s typ) with ultra-low 170nA typical supply current. It asserts an active-low push-pull RESET output during VCC brownout, MR assertion, or watchdog timeout, ensuring reliable boot-up and runtime fault recovery in battery-constrained systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6864UK31D1S+ datasheet, MAX6864UK31D1S+ pinout, MAX6864UK31D1S+ application, or MAX6864UK31D1S+ equivalent, this device is selected for low-power embedded systems requiring guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = +1.1V, immunity to short VCC transients (<40µs at 100mV overdrive), and deterministic watchdog supervision of firmware execution flow.
Technical Context
The MAX6864UK31D1S+ integrates a precision voltage comparator with ±2.5% reset threshold accuracy, a monostable reset timeout generator (10ms min), and a digital watchdog timer that clears on any WDI edge and expires if WDI remains static beyond 3.3s (typ). Its internal 10kΩ MR pullup and glitch rejection (200ns) enable direct switch interfacing without external components.
Reset assertion is synchronized to VCC falling edge detection with 40µs propagation delay (tRD), while the watchdog monitors µP activity via WDI - a dedicated input tolerant to 0.3×VCC/0.7×VCC logic thresholds and capable of detecting 150ns pulses. The push-pull RESET output sinks ≥50µA at 0.3V (VCC ≥ 1.1V) and sources ≥200µA at 0.8×VCC (VCC ≥ 1.71V).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Current | 170nA typical at VCC = 1.8V; enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries. |
| Reset Threshold Voltage | +3.075V (suffix D1, Table 2); factory-trimmed ±2.5% accuracy ensures precise brownout detection for 3.3V systems. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 10ms minimum (suffix D1, Table 4); guarantees sufficient hold time for µP initialization after power stabilization. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 3.3s typical (suffix S, Table 3); provides robust firmware supervision without excessive timeout latency. |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2V to 5.5V; supports wide-input battery-powered designs including single-cell Li-ion and dual-cell alkaline. |
| Reset Validity Limit | Guaranteed down to VCC = +1.1V; ensures deterministic reset behavior during deep brownout conditions. |

Pinout & Package
Package: 5-pin SOT23-5, lead-free (RoHS-compliant), footprint compatible with industry-standard 5-pin SOT23 layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output; drives µP reset pin directly without external pullup; valid to VCC = +1.1V. |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuits; must be connected to system ground plane with low-impedance path. |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC (10kΩ); accepts CMOS logic levels; 1µs minimum pulse width. |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input; edge-sensitive (rising/falling); clears internal timer on transition; detects pulses ≥150ns. |
| 5 | VCC | Supply voltage input and monitored rail; requires 0.1µF bypass capacitor to GND for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low ICC | 170nA typical supply current extends battery life in portable medical and IoT devices. |
| No external components | Integrated MR pullup, precision voltage reference, and watchdog oscillator eliminate BOM cost and layout area. |
| VCC transient immunity | Immune to ≤40µs VCC glitches at 100mV overdrive, preventing spurious resets in noisy environments. |
| Guaranteed reset validity | RESET output remains functional down to VCC = +1.1V, ensuring fail-safe behavior during deep undervoltage. |
| Watchdog edge-triggered clear | WDI transitions (not level holds) reset the timer, enabling robust software supervision without timing jitter. |

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6864UK31D1S+?
The MAX6864UK31D1S+ has a factory-trimmed reset threshold voltage of +3.075V (±2.5%), corresponding to suffix "31" in the ordering code per Maxim's Threshold Suffix Guide. This value is guaranteed over the full -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range and ensures precise brownout detection for 3.3V nominal systems. The MAX6864UK31D1S+ uses this threshold to assert RESET whenever VCC falls below this level.
Does the MAX6864UK31D1S+ include a watchdog timer, and what is its timeout period?
Yes, the MAX6864UK31D1S+ includes a watchdog timer with a typical timeout period of 3.3 seconds, indicated by the "S" suffix in the part number. The timer clears on any rising or falling edge at the WDI pin and expires only if WDI remains static beyond this period. This behavior is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table and Functional Diagram of the MAX6864UK31D1S+ datasheet.
What is the reset timeout period for the MAX6864UK31D1S+?
The MAX6864UK31D1S+ has a minimum reset timeout period of 10ms, denoted by the "D1" suffix. This fixed timeout ensures the RESET signal remains asserted long enough for microprocessor initialization after VCC rises above the 3.075V threshold or after manual reset deassertion. The 10ms duration is guaranteed across temperature and supply voltage variations per the MAX6864UK31D1S+ specifications.
What package type and pin configuration does the MAX6864UK31D1S+ use?
The MAX6864UK31D1S+ is housed in a 5-pin SOT23-5 package with lead-free (RoHS-compliant) finish. Pin 1 is RESET (active-low push-pull), Pin 2 is GND, Pin 3 is MR (active-low manual reset), Pin 4 is WDI (watchdog input), and Pin 5 is VCC. This configuration is explicitly shown in the "MAX6864/MAX6865/MAX6866 Pin Description" section and "Pin Configurations" diagram of the MAX6864UK31D1S+ datasheet.
Is the MAX6864UK31D1S+ compatible with 1.8V or 2.5V supply rails?
Yes, the MAX6864UK31D1S+ operates over a VCC range of 1.2V to 5.5V and is fully specified at 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, and 5.0V. Its 170nA typical supply current and guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = +1.1V make it suitable for low-voltage systems. The MAX6864UK31D1S+ maintains accurate reset threshold detection and functional watchdog operation across this entire range.
