Product details
Overview
The MAX6865UK41D1S+T from Maxim Integrated is a nanopower microprocessor supervisory circuit in 5-pin SOT23 package, featuring ultra-low 170nA typical supply current, factory-trimmed 4.1V reset threshold (±2.5%), 10ms minimum reset timeout, and integrated watchdog timer with 3.3s typical timeout. It monitors VCC, responds to manual reset (MR), and asserts active-high push-pull RESET during brownout or watchdog expiry - used in glucose monitors and battery-powered medical sensors.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6865UK41D1S+T datasheet, MAX6865UK41D1S+T pinout, MAX6865UK41D1S+T application, or MAX6865UK41D1S+T equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = +1.1V, immunity to sub-40µs VCC transients, MR glitch rejection of 200ns, and compatibility with 1.2V–5.5V supply rails in space-constrained portable systems.
Technical Context
This device integrates voltage monitoring, manual reset input (MR), and watchdog timer (WDI) in a single BiCMOS IC. The watchdog clears on any WDI edge and expires if WDI remains static >3.3s (typ), triggering a 10ms (min) reset pulse. RESET is active-high push-pull, referenced to VCC, with VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC at ISOURCE = 500µA.
Voltage supervision uses a precision bandgap reference with ±2.5% threshold tolerance over –40°C to +85°C. The internal reset timeout generator ensures minimum 10ms assertion after VCC rises above VTH or MR deasserts, with tRD < 40µs for fast response to supply dips.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Current | 170nA typ at VCC = 1.8V; enables >10-year battery life in coin-cell–powered devices. |
| Reset Threshold | 4.100V ±2.5%; factory-trimmed for precise brownout detection at nominal 4.1V rail. |
| Reset Timeout | 10ms min; ensures µP completes power-up initialization before release from reset. |
| Watchdog Timeout | 3.3s typ (S-suffix); detects firmware hangs in low-duty-cycle embedded applications. |
| VCC Validity Range | Operates down to VCC = +1.1V; guarantees valid RESET assertion during deep brownout. |
| MR Glitch Rejection | 200ns; rejects noise spikes on manual reset line without external filtering. |
| WDI Pulse Width | 150ns min; supports high-frequency watchdog toggling in real-time firmware loops. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 5-pin SOT23 (lead-free, +T suffix), footprint-compatible with industry-standard 5-lead SOT-23.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-high push-pull output; drives µP reset input directly without pullup; VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC. |
| 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 levels. |
| 4 | WDI | Watchdog input; edge-sensitive; clears internal timer on rising/falling edges; immune to <150ns pulses. |
| 5 | VCC | Supply voltage input (1.2V–5.5V); monitored for reset generation; bypass with 0.1µF to GND. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low ICC | 170nA typical supply current extends battery life in always-on medical wearables. |
| Guaranteed VCC = +1.1V operation | Ensures reliable reset assertion even during severe brownout conditions. |
| No external components required | Integrates MR pullup, watchdog timing, and precision voltage reference - no capacitors or resistors needed. |
| Immunity to short VCC transients | Rejects ≤40µs glitches at 100mV overdrive, eliminating false resets in noisy power environments. |
| Watchdog edge-triggered clear | WDI transitions (not level) reset timer, enabling robust software-based heartbeat signaling. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6864UK41D1S+T | No CT pin; fixed 10ms timeout (D1); identical VTH, WDI, and RESET specs. | Lacks pin-selectable timeout; suitable where only one timeout is required. | Choose MAX6864UK41D1S+T when CT functionality is unused and cost minimization is prioritized. |
| TPS3836K33DBVR | 3.3V fixed threshold; 200ms timeout; no watchdog; 1.5µA ICC; SOT23-5. | Designed for simpler reset-only use cases without firmware supervision. | Choose TPS3836K33DBVR only if watchdog is unnecessary and 3.3V threshold matches system rail. |
Compared with MAX6864UK41D1S+T, the MAX6865UK41D1S+T offers identical supervision and watchdog performance but adds CT pin flexibility - though unused here, it enables future design reuse. Versus TPS3836K33DBVR, MAX6865UK41D1S+T delivers 10× lower ICC and critical watchdog capability for autonomous recovery.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX6865UK41D1S+T?
The MAX6865UK41D1S+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 4.100V with ±2.5% tolerance over –40°C to +85°C, corresponding to the "41" suffix per Table 2 in the datasheet. This value is guaranteed at VCC ≥ 1.2V and ensures reliable brownout detection on 4.1V nominal rails.
Does the MAX6865UK41D1S+T require external components for basic operation?
No, the MAX6865UK41D1S+T requires no external components for core functionality: MR is internally pulled up to VCC via 10kΩ, the watchdog timer and reset timeout are fully integrated, and the precision voltage reference is on-die. Only a 0.1µF VCC bypass capacitor is recommended for noise immunity.
How does the watchdog timer in the MAX6865UK41D1S+T respond to firmware activity?
The MAX6865UK41D1S+T watchdog timer clears on any rising or falling edge at the WDI pin and expires only if WDI remains static for >3.3s (typ). It does not monitor level duration - edge-triggered clearing prevents false timeouts during long steady-state firmware states like idle loops.
What is the minimum VCC voltage at which the MAX6865UK41D1S+T guarantees valid RESET assertion?
The MAX6865UK41D1S+T guarantees valid RESET assertion down to VCC = +1.1V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Below this, RESET behavior is not characterized, but the device remains functional until VCC drops below 1.2V.
Is the MAX6865UK41D1S+T pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX68xx family?
Yes, the MAX6865UK41D1S+T shares the same 5-pin SOT23 pinout as MAX6864/MAX6866/MAX6867–MAX6869 variants. Pin 1 is RESET (active-high push-pull), Pin 3 is MR, Pin 4 is WDI, and Pin 5 is VCC - matching the MAX6864UK41D1S+T exactly.
