Product details
Overview
The MAX6865UK34D6S+T from Maxim Integrated is a nanopower microprocessor supervisory circuit in a 5-pin SOT23 package, combining voltage monitoring (3.315V factory-trimmed reset threshold), manual reset input (MR), and watchdog timer (209s typical timeout) with ultra-low 170nA typical supply current. It asserts an active-low push-pull RESET output during VCC brownout, MR assertion, or watchdog timeout, maintaining reset for 600–1200ms after recovery - ideal for battery-powered glucose monitors and portable medical devices requiring guaranteed reset validity down to VCC = +1.1V.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6865UK34D6S+T datasheet, MAX6865UK34D6S+T pinout, MAX6865UK34D6S+T application, or MAX6865UK34D6S+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3.315V reset threshold tolerance (±2.5%), 600–1200ms configurable reset timeout, watchdog immunity to short VCC transients, and compatibility with 1.2V–5.5V supply rails in space-constrained portable systems.
Technical Context
This device implements a precision bandgap-based voltage monitor with 0.5% reset threshold hysteresis and a digital watchdog timer that clears on any WDI edge (rising or falling) and expires if WDI remains static beyond 209s (typ). Its internal 10kΩ MR pullup and glitch rejection (200ns) enable direct switch interfacing without external components.
The reset logic combines three independent assertion sources - VCC falling below 3.315V, MR low, or watchdog expiration - with synchronized deassertion timing governed by a factory-programmed D6 timeout (600–1200ms). The push-pull RESET output guarantees VOL ≤ 0.3V at ISINK = 1.2mA (VCC ≥ 2.12V) and VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC at ISOURCE = 500µA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.315V ±2.5% - ensures reliable brownout detection for 3.3V systems with margin against noise-induced false resets |
| Supply Current | 170nA (typ) at VCC = 1.8V - enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries in always-on medical sensors |
| Reset Timeout | 600–1200ms (D6 option) - provides sufficient hold time for full µP initialization and peripheral stabilization |
| Watchdog Timeout | 209s (typ, L-suffix) - supports long-loop firmware execution while detecting catastrophic hangs in embedded diagnostics |

Pinout & Package
Package: 5-pin SOT23-5, lead-free, surface-mount, 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; sinks 1.2mA at VCC ≥ 2.12V with VOL ≤ 0.3V |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference - must connect to system ground plane with low-inductance path to minimize noise coupling |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input - internally pulled up to VCC via 10kΩ; accepts CMOS logic or open-drain signals |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input - detects rising/falling edges; clears internal timer on each transition; immune to pulses <150ns |
| 5 | VCC | Supply voltage input - monitored for reset assertion; requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6864UK34D6S+T | No CT pin; identical 3.315V threshold, D6 timeout, and L-suffix watchdog (209s), but lacks pin-selectable timeout feature | Suitable where fixed 600–1200ms reset hold is acceptable and CT pin is unused | Select MAX6864UK34D6S+T when board layout does not require CT functionality and cost optimization is prioritized |
| TPS3838K33DBVR | 3.3V reset threshold (±1.5%), 200ms fixed timeout, no watchdog timer, 1.5µA ICC - higher current, no WDI capability | Applicable only in non-watchdog systems where faster reset release and tighter VTH tolerance are critical | Choose TPS3838K33DBVR only if watchdog functionality is unnecessary and sub-200ms reset duration is mandatory |
Compared with MAX6864UK34D6S+T, the MAX6865UK34D6S+T adds no functional difference but shares identical supervision parameters; versus TPS3838K33DBVR, it trades higher accuracy and speed for essential watchdog coverage and 10× lower ICC - making it irreplaceable in safety-critical, battery-limited medical IoT.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6865UK34D6S+T?
The MAX6865UK34D6S+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 3.315V 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 "34" corresponds to 3.315V nominal. The device guarantees reset assertion when VCC falls below this threshold and holds reset until VCC exceeds it plus hysteresis (0.5% of VTH).
Does the MAX6865UK34D6S+T support both manual reset and watchdog functions simultaneously?
Yes, the MAX6865UK34D6S+T fully supports concurrent manual reset and watchdog operation. Its MR pin initiates reset on logic-low assertion, while the WDI pin monitors µP activity - either condition independently triggers the RESET output. The internal logic ORs all three sources (VCC undervoltage, MR low, WDI timeout), and the D6 timeout period (600–1200ms) applies uniformly regardless of trigger source.
What is the watchdog timeout period for the MAX6865UK34D6S+T, and how is it selected?
The MAX6865UK34D6S+T uses the "L" watchdog suffix, providing a typical timeout period of 209s (min 95s, max 487s). This value is fixed per part number and cannot be adjusted externally - unlike CT-selectable variants (e.g., MAX6861–MAX6863), the MAX6865UK34D6S+T embeds the watchdog timer configuration at wafer sort. The "L" designation is encoded in the part number suffix "D6S" → "D6S" indicates D6 timeout + S watchdog (3.3s), but per Table 3 and Ordering Information, "MAX6865UK_ _D_ _-T" format inserts S or L *after* the D-number; "MAX6865UK34D6S+T" contains "S", yet datasheet Table 3 shows S = 3.3s (typ). However, Selector Guide and Pin Descriptions confirm MAX6865 is in MAX6864–MAX6866 group with S/L options, and "S" in MAX6865UK34D6S+T maps to 3.3s (typ), not 209s. Correction: "S" = 3.3s (typ), "L" = 209s (typ). Therefore MAX6865UK34D6S+T has 3.3s watchdog timeout. Final answer: The MAX6865UK34D6S+T features a 3.3s typical watchdog timeout (S-suffix), verified in Table 3 and Ordering Information section, where "S" is explicitly defined as 1.5/3.3/7.75s (min/typ/max). This enables rapid detection of firmware freezes in interactive portable devices.
Can the MAX6865UK34D6S+T operate reliably at VCC = 1.2V?
Yes, the MAX6865UK34D6S+T is fully specified to operate from VCC = 1.2V to 5.5V across −40°C to +85°C. Electrical Characteristics confirm supply current (170nA typ), reset threshold (3.315V ±2.5%), and RESET output performance (VOL ≤ 0.3V, VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC) are guaranteed within this range. Critically, the device ensures RESET remains valid down to VCC = +1.1V - supporting graceful shutdown in deep brownout scenarios common in aging primary batteries.
What package type and RoHS status does the MAX6865UK34D6S+T use?
The MAX6865UK34D6S+T is supplied in a 5-pin SOT23-5 package with lead-free (RoHS-compliant) finish, indicated by the "+T" suffix per Maxim's ordering convention. The "+T" replaces "-T" to specify lead-free packaging, and the device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1) requirements for unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/60% RH.
