Product details
Overview
The MAX6865UK17D5L+T from Maxim Integrated is a nanopower microprocessor supervisory circuit in a 5-pin SOT23 package, featuring ultra-low 170nA typical supply current, a factory-trimmed 1.665V reset threshold (suffix '17'), 450ms minimum reset timeout (suffix 'D5'), and 209s typical watchdog timeout (suffix 'L'). It monitors VCC, responds to manual reset (MR), and triggers reset on watchdog timeout (WDI) - used in battery-powered medical and portable electronics for reliable power-on reset and code-execution error recovery.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6865UK17D5L+T datasheet, MAX6865UK17D5L+T pinout, MAX6865UK17D5L+T application, or MAX6865UK17D5L+T equivalent, this page delivers verified functional identity, exact pin roles, confirmed timing parameters (tRP = 450ms min, tWD = 209s typ), reset output type (active-high push-pull), and real-world substitution guidance - all validated against Maxim's official documentation.
Technical Context
This device integrates three core functions: precision voltage monitoring with ±2.5% threshold accuracy down to VCC = 1.1V, a glitch-immune manual reset input with 250ns MR-to-reset delay and internal 10kΩ pullup, and a watchdog timer that clears on any WDI edge and expires if WDI remains static beyond 209s (typ). Its BiCMOS process enables stable operation across –40°C to +85°C.
The MAX6865UK17D5L+T implements an active-high push-pull RESET output referenced to VCC, guaranteeing VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC at ISOURCE = 500µA (VCC ≥ 2.38V) and VOL ≤ 0.3V at ISINK = 1.2mA (VCC ≥ 2.38V). It requires no external components and supports direct interfacing with µP reset inputs without level-shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Current | 170nA typical at VCC = 1.8V - enables multi-year battery life in glucose monitors and pagers. |
| Reset Threshold Voltage | 1.665V (factory-trimmed, ±2.5%) - matches 1.8V system brownout detection with margin. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 450ms minimum (D5 option) - ensures full µP initialization before release from reset. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 209s typical (L suffix) - suitable for low-duty-cycle firmware with long idle periods. |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2V to 5.5V - supports single-cell Li-ion, coin-cell, and 3.3V/5V logic domains. |

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6865UK17D5L+T?
The MAX6865UK17D5L+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold voltage of 1.665V, with ±2.5% tolerance over –40°C to +85°C. This value is defined by the '17' suffix in the part number and is confirmed in Table 2 (Threshold Suffix Guide) of the official datasheet. The device guarantees valid reset assertion down to VCC = 1.1V, supporting reliable operation during deep brownout conditions.
Does the MAX6865UK17D5L+T include a watchdog timer, and what is its timeout?
Yes, the MAX6865UK17D5L+T includes a watchdog timer with a typical timeout of 209 seconds, indicated by the 'L' 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. It is designed for low-frequency firmware supervision in battery-powered applications like glucose meters where long idle intervals are common.
What type of RESET output does the MAX6865UK17D5L+T provide?
The MAX6865UK17D5L+T provides an active-high push-pull RESET output (Pin 1), as confirmed by its position in the Selector Guide and Pin Description section for MAX6865. This means it actively drives high during reset assertion and low during deassertion - eliminating the need for an external pullup resistor and ensuring clean, fast transitions compatible with standard µP reset inputs.
How is the reset timeout period configured on the MAX6865UK17D5L+T?
The reset timeout period on the MAX6865UK17D5L+T is fixed at 450ms minimum (typical 600ms, max 1200ms), specified by the 'D5' suffix. Unlike MAX6861–MAX6863 variants, it does not use a CT pin for selection - the timeout is factory-set and non-adjustable. This value is validated in Table 4 (Reset Timeout Periods) and applies after VCC rises above threshold or MR deasserts.
Is the MAX6865UK17D5L+T RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the MAX6865UK17D5L+T is RoHS-compliant and supplied in lead-free packaging, as indicated by the '+T' suffix per Maxim's Ordering Information. The device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 and is qualified for reflow soldering per industry standards - confirmed in the "Devices are available in both leaded and lead-free packaging" note on page 14 of the datasheet.
