Product details
Overview
MAX699EWE+ from Maxim Integrated is an industrial-grade, low-cost power-on reset and watchdog controller for +5V microprocessor systems. It delivers a guaranteed 140ms RESET pulse on power-up, brownout (trip at 4.4V), and power-down, features a 1s watchdog timeout with WDI input, and operates across -40°C to +85°C in a 16-pin wide SO package.
For engineers reviewing the MAX699EWE+ datasheet, MAX699EWE+ pinout, MAX699EWE+ application, or MAX699EWE+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its open-drain RESET output, WDO assertion behavior during watchdog timeout, VCC monitoring hysteresis of 40mV, and compatibility with legacy 8-pin designs via pin-mapped SO footprint.
Technical Context
The MAX699EWE+ integrates a precision voltage monitor with fixed 4.65V power-up reset deassertion threshold and 40mV hysteresis to prevent chatter near trip point. Its internal reset timer guarantees ≥140ms pulse width, independent of supply ramp rate up to 100V/μs.
The watchdog circuit monitors WDI toggling with a nominal 1s timeout; unconnected WDI disables watchdog functionality. In SO packages, it provides both active-low RESET and active-low WDO outputs-neither available in PDIP variants-enabling dual-fault signaling in critical embedded systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Operating Voltage Range | 3.0V to 5.5V - supports operation down to 3V logic while monitoring +5V rail |
| Reset Threshold (Power-Up) | 4.65V (typ) - ensures stable μP initialization after VCC crosses reliable operating level |
| Reset Pulse Width | 140ms to 500ms - meets Intel-compatible reset timing requirements without external RC |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1s (nominal) - detects stalled firmware execution within defined safety interval |
| Hysteresis | 40mV - prevents oscillation during slow or noisy VCC recovery |
| Supply Current | 5mA (max) - enables use in low-power supervisory roles without burdening supply |
| Output Drive (RESET) | 0.4V @ 1.6mA sink - ensures solid TTL/CMOS-compatible low-level drive into typical pull-up loads |
Pinout & Package
MAX699EWE+ is housed in a 16-lead, 0.3-inch wide SOIC package (W16-1 outline), RoHS-compliant with lead-free finish indicated by the '+' suffix. Pin 1 is top-left corner, with standard SOIC orientation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 4, 9 | GND | Chip power ground reference for all internal comparators and outputs |
| 2, 3 | VCC | +5V supply sense input and IC power rail - dual connection improves noise immunity |
| 5–8, 10–14 | N.C. | No internal connection - must remain unconnected per datasheet |
| 11 | WDI | Watchdog input - three-level (high/mid/low); open = watchdog disabled |
| 14 | WDO | Watchdog output - active-low open-drain signal asserted when WDI stalls >1s |
| 15 | RESET | Active-low reset output - asserted when VCC < 4.4V, deasserted at 4.65V |
| 16 | RESET | Active-high reset output - complementary to pin 15, only on SO packages |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated Power-On Reset Timer | Guaranteed 140ms minimum pulse eliminates need for external RC timing network |
| Dual-Output RESET Signaling | SO package provides both active-low and active-high RESET outputs for flexible interface design |
| Configurable Watchdog | WDI pin accepts high/mid/low states; floating WDI disables watchdog - no external pull-up required |
| Precision Voltage Monitoring | 4.65V ±150mV trip threshold with 40mV hysteresis ensures robust brownout detection |
| Industrial Temperature Range | -40°C to +85°C operation validated per E-grade specification - suitable for harsh environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar power-on reset and watchdog applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX699CPA+ | Same core functionality but rated for 0°C to +70°C only; 8-pin PDIP package limits output options (no WDO or active-high RESET) | Suitable for commercial-grade board-level designs where temperature range and dual outputs are not required | Select MAX699CPA+ only if ambient operating temperature stays within 0°C–70°C and single RESET output suffices |
| TPS3823-50DBVR | Fixed 5.0V reset threshold (vs. 4.65V), no watchdog function, SOT-23-5 package, lower quiescent current (12μA) | Applicable where precise 5.0V monitoring suffices and watchdog supervision is unnecessary | Choose TPS3823-50DBVR for cost-sensitive, space-constrained applications without watchdog needs |
Compared with MAX699CPA+, the MAX699EWE+ adds extended temperature support and dual-reset outputs; versus TPS3823-50DBVR, it trades ultra-low power for integrated watchdog and wider VCC tolerance (3.0V–5.5V), making it appropriate for industrial μP supervision where reliability under voltage stress is critical.

FAQ
What is the reset threshold voltage for MAX699EWE+?
The MAX699EWE+ asserts RESET when VCC falls below 4.4V and deasserts it at 4.65V (typical), with 40mV hysteresis. This threshold is factory-trimmed and guaranteed over the full -40°C to +85°C temperature range, ensuring consistent brownout detection without external calibration.
Does MAX699EWE+ require external components to operate?
No, the MAX699EWE+ requires zero external components for basic reset and watchdog operation. Its internal voltage reference, timing capacitor, and comparator circuitry eliminate the need for resistors, capacitors, or diodes - reducing BOM count, PCB area, and potential failure points in μP supervision circuits.
How is the watchdog function enabled or disabled on MAX699EWE+?
The watchdog function on MAX699EWE+ is controlled solely by the WDI pin (pin 11). Leaving WDI unconnected disables the watchdog; toggling it at least once every 1s enables supervision. No configuration register or external signal is needed - behavior is hardware-determined and failsafe.
What is the purpose of the two RESET outputs on MAX699EWE+?
MAX699EWE+ provides both active-low (pin 15) and active-high (pin 16) RESET outputs in its SO package. This allows direct interfacing with devices requiring either polarity without level-shifting circuitry - e.g., driving FPGA PROG_B (active-low) and ASIC reset-enable (active-high) simultaneously from one supervisor.
Can MAX699EWE+ monitor supply voltages other than +5V?
While optimized for +5V systems, MAX699EWE+ operates from 3.0V to 5.5V and monitors VCC directly. It does not support adjustable thresholds or external resistor dividers; its 4.65V trip point is fixed. For non-5V rails, consider dedicated supervisors like the MAX6326 series with user-selectable thresholds.
