Product details
Overview
The MAX6865UK33D1S+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 3.3V reset threshold (±2.5%), and a 10ms minimum reset timeout period. It integrates manual reset input (MR), watchdog timer with 3.3s typical timeout, and push-pull active-high RESET output - designed for reliable power-on reset and brownout protection in battery-critical systems like glucose monitors and portable medical devices.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6865UK33D1S+T datasheet, MAX6865UK33D1S+T pinout, MAX6865UK33D1S+T application, or MAX6865UK33D1S+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = +1.1V, immunity to short VCC transients (<40µs at 100mV overdrive), watchdog edge-triggered clearing logic, and lead-free SOT23-5 packaging compliant with RoHS requirements.
Technical Context
The MAX6865UK33D1S+T implements a dual-monitoring architecture: a precision voltage detector with hysteresis (0.5% of VTH) triggers reset on VCC drop below 3.3V, while a dedicated watchdog timer monitors WDI activity - expiring only if no rising/falling edge occurs within 3.3s (typ). Reset assertion persists for ≥10ms after VCC recovery and MR deassertion, ensuring µP initialization completes before release.
Its internal 10kΩ MR pullup enables direct connection to momentary switches without external components; the push-pull active-high RESET output drives directly into CMOS inputs with VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC (at ISOURCE = 500µA) and VOL ≤ 0.3V (at ISINK = 1.2mA), eliminating need for pullup resistors or level-shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Current | 170nA typ at VCC = 1.8V - enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries in always-on medical sensors. |
| Reset Threshold | 3.3V ±2.5% - factory-trimmed for precise monitoring of 3.3V system rails without external calibration. |
| Reset Timeout | 10ms min (D1 option) - ensures sufficient hold time for slow-starting µPs and peripheral initialization sequences. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 3.3s typ (S suffix) - balances fault detection responsiveness with software execution margin in embedded firmware loops. |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2V to 5.5V - supports wide-input battery-powered systems including single-cell Li-ion (2.7–4.2V) and alkaline stacks. |
| Reset Validity Limit | VCC ≥ 1.1V - guarantees deterministic RESET state during deep brownout, preventing undefined µP behavior. |
| MR Glitch Rejection | 200ns - suppresses EMI-induced noise on manual reset lines without external RC filtering. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 5-pin SOT23-5, lead-free, RoHS-compliant, 1.6mm × 2.9mm footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET (active-high) | Push-pull output asserted high during reset; sinks ≤0.3V at 1.2mA, sources ≥0.8×VCC at 500µA - directly interfaces µP reset pins without external components. |
| 2 | GND | Power ground reference for all internal comparators and logic; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane. |
| 3 | MR (active-low) | Manual reset input with internal 10kΩ pullup to VCC; accepts CMOS-level signals or open-drain drivers; 1µs minimum pulse width. |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input cleared by any rising or falling edge; detects pulses ≥150ns; resets internal timer on transition - enables robust firmware supervision. |
| 5 | VCC | Main supply input monitored for brownout; requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND for noise immunity per datasheet recommendation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low ICC | 170nA typical supply current extends battery life in portable medical devices beyond 5 years on CR2032 cells. |
| Guaranteed reset at low VCC | Valid RESET assertion down to VCC = +1.1V prevents spurious µP wake-up during critical power collapse phases. |
| Watchdog edge-triggered clear | WDI transitions (not level holds) reset timer - eliminates false timeouts caused by static firmware states or I/O leakage. |
| No external components required | Integrated MR pullup, precision voltage reference, and reset timing eliminate discrete R/C networks and trimming parts. |
| Transient immunity | Immune to VCC glitches ≤40µs duration at 100mV overdrive - maintains system stability in electrically noisy environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6864UK33D1S+T | Same 3.3V threshold, 10ms timeout, and 3.3s watchdog - but features active-low push-pull RESET output instead of active-high. | Requires inverted reset logic on µP side; unsuitable for systems where RESET pin expects active-high assertion. | Select MAX6864UK33D1S+T only when target µP reset input is active-low and board layout cannot accommodate signal inversion. |
| TPS3837K33DBVR | 3.3V threshold, 200ms min reset timeout, no watchdog; 1.6µA supply current - 10× higher than MAX6865UK33D1S+T. | Lacks watchdog functionality; longer timeout may delay recovery in time-critical medical alarms. | Choose TPS3837K33DBVR only for cost-sensitive, non-watchdog applications where 1.6µA ICC is acceptable and 200ms reset hold is functionally adequate. |
Compared with MAX6864UK33D1S+T, the MAX6865UK33D1S+T provides native active-high reset compatibility, reducing BOM count and PCB routing complexity; versus TPS3837K33DBVR, it delivers 10× lower quiescent current and integrated watchdog - essential for battery longevity and firmware reliability in Class II medical devices.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage tolerance for MAX6865UK33D1S+T?
The MAX6865UK33D1S+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 3.3V with a guaranteed tolerance of ±2.5% over the full -40°C to +85°C temperature range. This corresponds to a minimum threshold of 3.218V and a maximum of 3.383V, ensuring consistent brownout detection across environmental conditions without external calibration.
Does MAX6865UK33D1S+T require an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin?
No, MAX6865UK33D1S+T does not require an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin because it features a push-pull active-high output stage. The device actively drives RESET high during assertion and low during deassertion, providing VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC and VOL ≤ 0.3V under specified load conditions - eliminating need for external biasing components.
How does the watchdog timer in MAX6865UK33D1S+T respond to firmware stalls?
The MAX6865UK33D1S+T watchdog timer expires if no rising or falling edge occurs on the WDI pin for longer than 3.3s (typical). Upon expiration, it asserts the active-high RESET output for ≥10ms. The timer clears immediately on any WDI transition - making it highly effective against infinite loops or hung interrupt service routines that fail to toggle WDI.
Can MAX6865UK33D1S+T operate reliably at VCC = 1.2V?
Yes, MAX6865UK33D1S+T is fully specified to operate at VCC = 1.2V, with guaranteed reset assertion and valid RESET output behavior down to VCC = +1.1V. At 1.2V, supply current remains ultra-low (≤370nA typ), and MR input thresholds scale proportionally (VIL = 0.3×VCC, VIH = 0.7×VCC), enabling robust operation in deeply discharged battery scenarios.
What is the MR input's internal pullup resistance value for MAX6865UK33D1S+T?
The MR input of MAX6865UK33D1S+T includes an internal pullup resistor of 10kΩ to VCC, as confirmed in the Pin Description section of the datasheet. This allows direct connection of a momentary switch between MR and GND without external components, and supports clean CMOS-level interfacing with microcontrollers or logic gates.
