Product details
Overview
The MAX6865UK39D2S+T from Maxim Integrated is a nanopower microprocessor supervisory circuit in 5-pin SOT23 package, featuring ultra-low 170nA typical supply current, factory-trimmed 3.9V reset threshold (±2.5%), 40ms minimum reset timeout, and integrated watchdog timer with 3.3s typical timeout. It monitors VCC, responds to manual reset (MR), and asserts active-low push-pull RESET during brownout or watchdog expiration - used in battery-powered glucose monitors and portable medical devices.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6865UK39D2S+T datasheet, MAX6865UK39D2S+T pinout, MAX6865UK39D2S+T application, or MAX6865UK39D2S+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 3.9V reset threshold accuracy, 40ms reset timeout, 3.3s watchdog period, guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = +1.1V, and immunity to sub-40µs VCC transients at 100mV overdrive.
Technical Context
This device integrates voltage monitoring, manual reset input (MR), and watchdog timer (WDI) in a single BiCMOS IC. The reset function triggers on VCC falling below 3.9V, MR assertion, or WDI inactivity exceeding 3.3s; RESET remains asserted for ≥40ms after recovery.
The watchdog clears on any WDI edge (rising/falling), MR assertion, or RESET assertion, and tolerates pulses as short as 150ns. Internal 10kΩ MR pullup enables direct switch-to-GND implementation without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.900V ±2.5% (factory-trimmed; ensures reliable brownout detection at nominal 3.3V/3.9V rail) |
| Reset Timeout | 40ms min (D2 option; guarantees µP reset hold time sufficient for full power stabilization) |
| Watchdog Timeout | 3.3s typ (S suffix; provides robust software execution monitoring for low-duty-cycle embedded firmware) |
| Supply Current | 170nA typ at +25°C (enables multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries in portable medical devices) |
| VCC Validity Range | 1.1V to 5.5V (RESET remains functional down to 1.1V, supporting deep brownout recovery) |
| Reset Output Type | Active-low push-pull (no external pullup required; drives standard CMOS reset inputs directly) |
| VCC Transient Immunity | No reset for ≤40µs transients at 100mV overdrive (prevents false resets in noisy battery-powered systems) |
Pinout & Package
Package: 5-pin SOT23-5, lead-free, -40°C to +85°C operating range.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output; sinks current when asserted, referenced to VCC; valid down to VCC = 1.1V |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuits; must connect to system ground plane |
| 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; edge-sensitive (150ns min pulse); clears internal timer on rising/falling transitions |
| 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 enables >10-year battery life in coin-cell–powered wearables |
| Factory-trimmed VTH | 3.900V ±2.5% eliminates external resistor networks and calibration overhead |
| Integrated watchdog | 3.3s timeout (S suffix) detects firmware hangs without requiring external timing components |
| No external components | Internal MR pullup, no RC network needed for reset timing - reduces BOM count and PCB area |
| VCC transient immunity | Immune to ≤40µs glitches at 100mV overdrive - avoids false resets in ESD-prone portable systems |
Applications
| Glucose Monitors | Patient Monitoring Devices |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Continuous glucose sensing with Bluetooth LE transmission in disposable wearable patches. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 3.3V LDO output, asserts RESET on battery sag or firmware lockup, and triggers watchdog if sensor readout loop stalls. Use Value: Ensures deterministic recovery from brownout or code hang without user intervention, meeting IEC 60601-1 safety requirements. |
Use Scenario: Portable ECG recorder with rechargeable Li-ion battery and low-power MCU. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors main 3.9V rail, initiates hard reset on undervoltage, and validates firmware liveness via WDI toggling during ADC sampling cycles. Use Value: Guarantees reset assertion down to VCC = 1.1V, enabling safe shutdown before battery cutoff, and prevents silent data corruption. |
| MP3 Players | Smart Pagers |
Use Scenario: Flash-based audio player powered by single AAA alkaline cell (1.0–1.6V range). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides precise 3.9V reset threshold tracking across battery discharge curve; uses MR for user-initiated reboot. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete voltage divider + comparator, reducing component count while maintaining ±2.5% threshold accuracy over temperature. |
Use Scenario: Two-way pager with intermittent RF transmission and long standby intervals. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supervises 3.3V PMIC output; watchdog verifies baseband processor responsiveness between paging bursts. Use Value: 3.3s watchdog timeout aligns with maximum allowable idle duration before protocol timeout, preventing missed message delivery. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6864UK39D2S+T | No CT pin; identical 3.9V threshold, 40ms timeout, 3.3s watchdog, and pinout - differs only in absence of CT select functionality | Suitable where fixed 40ms timeout suffices; not usable if pin-selectable timeout is required | Select MAX6864UK39D2S+T when CT functionality is unnecessary and cost optimization is prioritized |
| TPS3836K33DBVR | 3.3V reset threshold (not 3.9V); 200ms timeout; no watchdog; SOT23-5 package; 1.6µA ICC | Lacks watchdog and manual reset; higher supply current limits battery life in ultra-low-power designs | Choose TPS3836K33DBVR only for non-watchdog 3.3V rail supervision where TI ecosystem compatibility is mandatory |
Compared with MAX6864UK39D2S+T, the MAX6865UK39D2S+T offers identical core supervision but is not interchangeable due to CT pin presence; versus TPS3836K33DBVR, it delivers 10× lower ICC, 3.9V threshold precision, and integrated watchdog - critical for medical-grade reliability.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6865UK39D2S+T?
The MAX6865UK39D2S+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 3.900V with ±2.5% tolerance over temperature (-40°C to +85°C), corresponding to the '39' suffix per Maxim's Threshold Suffix Guide. This value is guaranteed by design and tested during production, ensuring accurate brownout detection for 3.3V/3.9V systems without external calibration.
Does the MAX6865UK39D2S+T include a watchdog timer, and what is its timeout period?
Yes, the MAX6865UK39D2S+T includes an integrated watchdog timer with a typical timeout period of 3.3s, indicated by the 'S' suffix in the part number. The timer clears on any edge (rising or falling) at the WDI pin and expires only if WDI remains static beyond this period, triggering a reset for the configured 40ms timeout.
What is the function of Pin 1 (RESET) on the MAX6865UK39D2S+T?
Pin 1 of the MAX6865UK39D2S+T is the active-low push-pull RESET output. It drives low during VCC brownout, MR assertion, or watchdog timeout, and remains low for ≥40ms after recovery. Unlike open-drain variants, it requires no external pullup and is referenced to VCC, simplifying interface to standard CMOS reset inputs.
Can the MAX6865UK39D2S+T operate reliably at very low supply voltages?
Yes, the MAX6865UK39D2S+T guarantees valid RESET output down to VCC = +1.1V, enabling robust operation during deep battery discharge. Its ultra-low 170nA supply current further extends usable battery range, making it suitable for coin-cell–powered devices where voltage drops below 1.5V during end-of-life.
How does the MAX6865UK39D2S+T handle short VCC transients?
The MAX6865UK39D2S+T is immune to VCC transients ≤40µs in duration when the overdrive is 100mV above the 3.9V threshold, per the "Maximum VCC Transient Duration vs. Reset Threshold Overdrive" curve. This prevents false resets caused by ESD events or switching noise in portable medical and consumer equipment.
