Product details
Overview
MAX701CSA from Maxim Integrated is a precision power-supply supervisory IC for +5V microprocessor systems, providing dual active-low and active-high reset outputs with guaranteed valid state down to VCC = 1V, 4.65V factory-trimmed reset threshold, ≥200ms reset pulse width, and debounced manual-reset input. It ensures reliable system initialization in embedded controllers and intelligent instruments.
For engineers reviewing the MAX701CSA datasheet, MAX701CSA pinout, MAX701CSA application, or MAX701CSA equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, package mapping to 8-pin narrow-SO, functional role in power-fail detection and cold-start sequencing, and validated alternative options for industrial µP monitoring designs.
Technical Context
The MAX701CSA implements a dual-output reset architecture with independent RESET (active-low) and RESET (active-high) signals, both asserted when VCC drops below 4.65V or during manual reset via MR. Its internal comparator guarantees correct output state for VCC ≥1V, eliminating external supervision circuitry in +5V systems.
It features no external components required for basic operation, built-in 30mV hysteresis on the reset threshold, and a debounced MR input with 5µA internal pullup. The device operates across 0°C to +70°C and supports supply voltages up to +15.5V absolute maximum.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.65V ±150mV (factory-trimmed for +5V systems; ensures deterministic reset at nominal supply) |
| Reset Pulse Width | 200–500ms (guarantees sufficient µP reset hold time across power-up, power-down, and brownout) |
| VCC Valid Range | 1.0V to 15.5V (enables valid reset assertion even during deep brownout or partial power loss) |
| Supply Current | 100–200µA (ultra-low quiescent draw preserves battery life in always-on monitoring) |
| MR Input Threshold | 0.7V (TTL-compatible manual reset activation; debounced internally to reject switch bounce) |
| Output Drive Strength | RESET: 16mA sink / 3.2mA source; RESET: 3.2mA sink / 3.2mA source (directly drives µP reset pins without buffers) |
| Operating Temp | 0°C to +70°C (commercial-grade thermal range suitable for non-automotive embedded environments) |
Pinout & Package
MAX701CSA is housed in an 8-pin narrow-SO (SOIC-8) package, 3.9mm body width, 1.27mm pitch, RoHS-compliant with lead-free option available (add '+' suffix).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 MR | Manual Reset Input | Debounced active-low input with 5µA internal pullup; initiates reset on logic-low transition |
| 2 GND | Ground Reference | Primary return path for all internal comparators and output drivers; must be low-impedance |
| 3 RESET | Active-Low Reset Output | Open-drain output; sinks up to 16mA; requires external pullup for µP reset pin compatibility |
| 4 RESET | Active-High Reset Output | Push-pull output; sources/sinks 3.2mA; directly interfaces with µP reset inputs requiring high-active signal |
| 5 VCC | Power Supply Input | +5V nominal supply input; also serves as monitored voltage source when CTL = GND (default mode) |
| 6 N.C. | No Connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating; not bonded or tied internally |
| 7 N.C. | No Connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating; not bonded or tied internally |
| 8 N.C. | No Connection | Internally unconnected; must remain floating; not bonded or tied internally |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual complementary reset outputs | Simultaneous RESET (active-low) and RESET (active-high) eliminate need for external inverters in mixed-logic systems |
| Factory-trimmed 4.65V threshold | Eliminates external resistor dividers and calibration for standard +5V rails, reducing BOM count and layout area |
| Guaranteed reset validity down to 1V VCC | Ensures deterministic reset behavior during severe brownouts where many supervisors fail or float unpredictably |
| 200ms minimum reset pulse width | Meets or exceeds Intel and ARM µP reset timing requirements without external RC timing networks |
| Debounced MR input | Internal digital debounce rejects mechanical switch bounce up to 10ms, removing need for external RC or firmware filtering |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar power-supply monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G01DBVR | Single active-low reset output; 1% threshold accuracy; 200ms fixed delay; 1.8–6V VCC range | Lacks complementary RESET output; requires external inverter for active-high interface | Select when only one reset polarity is needed and tighter threshold tolerance (±1%) is prioritized over dual-output flexibility |
| ADM6710ARTZ-REEL7 | Single active-low reset; 2.93V threshold; 200ms min pulse; 1.8–5.5V VCC; includes watchdog timer | Lower threshold unsuitable for +5V-only systems; adds watchdog functionality not present in MAX701CSA | Choose when system-level watchdog supervision is required alongside reset, and 2.93V trip point aligns with auxiliary rail monitoring |
Compared with TPS3808G01DBVR and ADM6710ARTZ-REEL7, the MAX701CSA uniquely provides simultaneous RESET/RESET outputs in a single 8-pin SO package, enabling direct interface with both NMOS and PMOS reset domains without external logic - critical for space-constrained industrial controllers.

FAQ
What is the reset threshold voltage of the MAX701CSA?
The MAX701CSA features a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 4.65V, with a guaranteed tolerance of ±150mV across the full operating temperature range (0°C to +70°C). This value applies to both power-up and power-down transitions and is optimized for +5V systems. The MAX701CSA does not support adjustable thresholds - that capability is exclusive to the MAX700 variant.
Does the MAX701CSA require external components for basic reset functionality?
No, the MAX701CSA requires zero external components to deliver fully functional reset supervision on a +5V rail. Its 4.65V threshold is factory-trimmed, the MR input includes a 5µA internal pullup, and both RESET and RESET outputs are fully buffered. Only optional pullup resistors on RESET may be needed depending on the target µP's input requirements.
What is the minimum VCC voltage at which the MAX701CSA guarantees correct reset output state?
The MAX701CSA guarantees correct RESET and RESET output logic states for VCC voltages as low as +1.0V - verified down to 0V in characterization. This ensures deterministic behavior during deep brownouts where other supervisors may float or oscillate, making the MAX701CSA especially valuable in battery-backed or unregulated supply environments.
How does the manual reset (MR) input behave on the MAX701CSA?
The MR input on the MAX701CSA is an active-low, debounced signal with a 0.7V logic threshold and internal 5µA pullup. A logic-low pulse ≥100ns triggers a full reset cycle, and internal digital debounce rejects transients shorter than ~10ms. No external capacitor or resistor is required for reliable pushbutton operation.
Is the MAX701CSA pin-compatible with other members of the MAX700/MAX701/MAX702 family?
Yes - the MAX701CSA shares identical pinout and package (8-pin narrow-SO) with MAX700CSA and MAX702CSA. However, functionality differs: MAX700CSA supports SENSE/CTL/HYST pins for adjustable thresholds, while MAX702CSA lacks RESET and uses different pin assignments. Always verify function mapping before substitution.
