Product details
Overview
The MAX6865UK32D5S+T from Maxim Integrated is a nanopower microprocessor supervisory circuit in a 5-pin SOT23 package, combining voltage monitoring, manual reset input (MR), and watchdog timer (WDI) functions. It asserts an active-high push-pull RESET output when VCC drops below 3.200V (factory-trimmed threshold), MR is pulled low, or the watchdog expires after 3.3s (typ). Designed for ultra-low-power systems, it draws only 170nA (typ) supply current and guarantees valid reset operation down to VCC = +1.1V.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6865UK32D5S+T datasheet, MAX6865UK32D5S+T pinout, MAX6865UK32D5S+T application, or MAX6865UK32D5S+T equivalent, this device serves as a critical power-on reset and software fault recovery component in battery-constrained embedded systems where supply current, brownout immunity, and watchdog timeout precision are design-critical parameters.
Technical Context
The MAX6865UK32D5S+T implements a dual-trigger reset architecture: one path monitors VCC against a factory-trimmed 3.200V threshold with ±2.5% tolerance, while a second path responds to manual reset assertion or watchdog timeout. Its internal watchdog timer clears on any WDI edge and expires if no transition occurs within 3.3s (typ), with temperature-stable performance across –40°C to +85°C.
Reset assertion is latched and held for a fixed 300ms minimum timeout period (D5 option) after VCC rises above threshold and MR deasserts-or after watchdog expiration-ensuring sufficient processor initialization time. The active-high push-pull RESET output drives directly to VCC without external pullup, supporting logic-level compatibility with 1.2V–5.5V supplies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Current | 170nA typical at +25°C; enables multi-year battery life in portable medical and IoT devices. |
| Reset Threshold Voltage | 3.200V ±2.5%; factory-trimmed for precise brownout detection at 3.3V system rails. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 300ms minimum (D5 option); ensures reliable µP boot sequence completion before release. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 3.3s typical (S suffix); provides robust software execution monitoring without excessive overhead. |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.2V to 5.5V; supports wide-input battery-powered systems including single-cell Li-ion and coin-cell applications. |
| Reset Valid Down To | VCC = +1.1V; guarantees deterministic reset behavior during deep brownout conditions. |
| MR Input Pullup | 10kΩ internal; eliminates need for external resistor when implementing momentary switch reset. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 5-pin SOT23-5, lead-free, surface-mount. Compact footprint (2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm) suitable for space-constrained portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET (active-high push-pull) | Drives high during reset assertion; sinks/source current per VOH/VOL specs; no external pullup required. |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuits; must be connected to system ground plane. |
| 3 | MR (manual reset input) | Active-low input with 10kΩ internal pullup to VCC; accepts CMOS logic levels; 1µs minimum pulse width. |
| 4 | WDI (watchdog input) | Edge-sensitive input; clears internal timer on rising/falling edges; rejects glitches <200ns. |
| 5 | VCC | Power supply input and monitored rail; requires 0.1µF bypass capacitor to GND for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low ICC | 170nA typical enables >10-year battery life in glucose monitors and wearable sensors. |
| Immunity to short VCC transients | Rejects ≤40µs transients at 100mV overdrive; prevents false resets in noisy power environments. |
| Guaranteed reset validity to VCC = +1.1V | Ensures deterministic behavior during deep undervoltage events common in battery discharge profiles. |
| No external components required | Integrates pullup on MR, bypass-capacitor guidance, and self-contained timing-reduces BOM count and layout area. |
| Watchdog edge-clearing logic | Resets timer on any WDI transition (not just toggles), simplifying firmware implementation and improving fault coverage. |
Applications
| Portable Medical Devices | Wearable Health Monitors |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6864UK32D5S+T | Active-low push-pull RESET output instead of active-high; identical threshold, timeout, and watchdog specs. | Requires inverted reset logic on host µP; unsuitable where active-high reset is hardwired or mandated by SoC. | Select MAX6864UK32D5S+T only if target µP accepts active-low reset and board layout allows signal inversion. |
| TPS3836K33DBVR | 3.3V fixed threshold (±2.5%), 200ms reset timeout, no watchdog timer; 2.5µA supply current. | Lacks watchdog functionality; higher ICC limits battery lifetime in always-on applications. | Choose TPS3836K33DBVR only when watchdog is unnecessary and cost is prioritized over ultra-low power. |
Compared with MAX6864UK32D5S+T and TPS3836K33DBVR, the MAX6865UK32D5S+T uniquely delivers active-high reset, nanopower operation, and integrated watchdog in a single SOT23-5 package-enabling simpler firmware integration and longer battery life where both reset polarity and runtime supervision are required.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6865UK32D5S+T?
The MAX6865UK32D5S+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold voltage of 3.200V with ±2.5% tolerance over –40°C to +85°C. This value is confirmed in Table 2 (Threshold Suffix Guide) of the datasheet, where suffix "32" corresponds to 3.200V nominal. The device guarantees valid reset assertion down to VCC = +1.1V, making it suitable for systems experiencing deep brownout conditions.
Does the MAX6865UK32D5S+T include a watchdog timer, and what is its timeout?
Yes, the MAX6865UK32D5S+T includes a watchdog timer with a typical timeout of 3.3s (S suffix), as specified in Table 3 (Watchdog Timeout). The timer clears on any rising or falling edge at the WDI pin and expires only if no transition occurs within that period. It remains disabled during reset assertion and resumes counting immediately after reset deassertion.
What type of reset output does the MAX6865UK32D5S+T provide?
The MAX6865UK32D5S+T provides an active-high push-pull RESET output (Pin 1), meaning it drives high during reset assertion and low when deasserted. Unlike open-drain variants, it requires no external pullup resistor and is referenced to VCC. Output voltage specifications (VOH/VOL) are guaranteed across the full 1.2V–5.5V supply range.
What is the reset timeout period for the MAX6865UK32D5S+T?
The MAX6865UK32D5S+T uses the D5 reset timeout option, providing a minimum reset pulse width of 300ms after VCC exceeds the threshold and MR is deasserted-or after watchdog expiration. This value is confirmed in Table 4 (Reset Timeout Periods), where D5 maps to 300ms (min)/450ms (typ)/600ms (max).
Is the MAX6865UK32D5S+T compatible with 1.8V or 2.5V supply rails?
Yes, the MAX6865UK32D5S+T operates across 1.2V to 5.5V, fully supporting 1.8V and 2.5V rails. Its 170nA typical supply current and guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = +1.1V make it ideal for multi-rail systems. The RESET output VOH is specified as 0.8×VCC at ISOURCE = 500µA, ensuring interoperability with low-voltage logic families.
