Product details
Overview
MAX706TEUA+T from Maxim Integrated is an active-low microprocessor supervisory circuit in 8-pin µMAX package, providing reset generation (200ms delay), watchdog timeout (1.6s), 1.25V power-fail comparator input, and debounced manual-reset input - all optimized for +3V/+3.3V systems in battery-powered portable instruments and industrial controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MAX706TEUA+T datasheet, MAX706TEUA+T pinout, MAX706TEUA+T application, or MAX706TEUA+T equivalent, this device delivers precision voltage monitoring (3.08V reset threshold), low-quiescent-current operation (100µA), and guaranteed RESET assertion down to VCC = 1V - critical for reliable power-up sequencing and brownout recovery in embedded µP systems.
Technical Context
The MAX706TEUA+T implements a dedicated reset generator with internal 200ms timer and hysteresis (20mV), a 1.6s watchdog timer that resets on WDI transitions and disables when WDI is open/high-Z (per MAX706AT specification), and a standalone 1.25V reference-based power-fail comparator feeding PFO. Its reset output asserts low when VCC falls below 3.08V or MR is pulled low.
All logic inputs (MR, WDI, PFI) are TTL/CMOS-compatible across 3.0V–5.5V VCC range; RESET output is guaranteed functional down to VCC = 1V, and supply current remains ≤100µA over temperature (−40°C to +85°C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.08V (VCC falling); ensures reliable reset assertion before µP supply dropout in +3.3V systems |
| Reset Pulse Width | 200ms typical; provides sufficient time for µP initialization and peripheral stabilization |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s ±0.65s; detects µP lockup without requiring external timing components |
| Supply Current | 100µA max at VCC = 5.5V; enables long battery life in portable equipment |
| Power-Fail Threshold | 1.25V ±0.05V; supports accurate low-battery warning or auxiliary supply monitoring via resistive divider |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial and extended-temperature embedded applications |
| Package | 8-pin µMAX (U8-1); 3mm × 3mm surface-mount footprint with exposed pad for thermal performance |
Pinout & Package
MAX706TEUA+T uses the 8-pin µMAX package (U8-1), a compact 3mm × 3mm surface-mount outline with exposed thermal pad. Pin numbering follows standard µMAX top-view orientation (pin 1 at top-left corner, counterclockwise).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (MR) | Active-low manual reset input | TTL/CMOS-compatible; internally pulled up with 70µA source; 500ns min pulse width at 3V |
| 2 (VCC) | Positive supply input | Operates from 3.15V to 5.5V; RESET asserted down to VCC = 1V |
| 3 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return for all internal circuits and outputs |
| 4 (PFI) | Power-fail comparator input | Compares against internal 1.25V reference; accepts resistive divider for custom trip points |
| 5 (PFO) | Active-low power-fail output | Sinks current when PFI < 1.25V; used for early-warning interrupt or cascaded reset |
| 6 (WDI) | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive; toggling within 1.6s prevents WDO assertion; disables when open or high-Z |
| 7 (WDO) | Active-low watchdog output | Asserts low on timeout or VCC brownout; deasserts immediately upon VCC recovery |
| 8 (RESET) | Active-low reset output | Guaranteed low during power-up/brownout; holds low for 200ms after VCC exceeds 3.08V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guaranteed RESET assertion to VCC = 1V | Ensures deterministic reset state even during deep brownout or partial power loss |
| WDI disable on high-impedance state | Eliminates false watchdog timeouts when µP enters sleep or tri-state I/O modes |
| Debounced MR input with 140ms minimum pulse | Removes mechanical switch bounce without external RC network |
| 1.25V precision reference for PFI | Enables accurate, stable power-fail detection independent of VCC variation |
| 20mV reset threshold hysteresis | Prevents oscillation during slow VCC ramp-up or noisy supply conditions |
Applications
| Battery-Powered Portable Instruments | Industrial Microcontroller Controllers |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Handheld test meters powered by single Li-ion or dual alkaline cells with variable discharge profile.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX706SEUA+T | 2.93V reset threshold; otherwise identical functionality and pinout | Suitable for systems with tighter 3.0V nominal supply tolerance where 3.08V may cause premature reset | Select when VCC nominal is 3.0V and margin to 3.08V threshold is insufficient |
| MAX706REUA+T | 2.63V reset threshold; same package, temp range, and feature set | Used in +3V systems with higher supply ripple or lower dropout headroom | Choose for legacy 3.0V designs or where brownout immunity must extend deeper into discharge curve |
Compared with MAX706TEUA+T, the MAX706SEUA+T offers earlier reset assertion for marginal 3.0V supplies, while the MAX706REUA+T provides maximum brownout depth tolerance - all three share identical watchdog, PFI/PFO, and MR behavior, enabling direct substitution with only threshold adjustment.

FAQ
What is the reset threshold voltage for MAX706TEUA+T?
The MAX706TEUA+T has a fixed reset threshold of 3.08V (typical) with ±75mV tolerance, specified for VCC falling conditions. This value is laser-trimmed at wafer test and guaranteed over −40°C to +85°C. The threshold applies to both power-up and brownout detection, and the device guarantees RESET assertion down to VCC = 1V.
Does MAX706TEUA+T include a watchdog timer function?
Yes, the MAX706TEUA+T includes a watchdog timer with a nominal timeout period of 1.6s. It monitors the WDI pin for transitions and asserts WDO low if no edge occurs within that window. The watchdog automatically disables when WDI is left open or driven high-impedance, per MAX706AT specifications confirmed in the datasheet.
What package type and footprint does MAX706TEUA+T use?
The MAX706TEUA+T is supplied in the 8-pin µMAX package (package code U8-1), measuring 3mm × 3mm with an exposed thermal pad. It is a surface-mount device compatible with standard reflow profiles and offers the smallest footprint among MAX706 variants - smaller than SO-8 and PDIP packages.
Can MAX706TEUA+T monitor a secondary power supply like +12V?
Yes, MAX706TEUA+T can monitor auxiliary supplies such as +12V using its PFI input. By connecting PFI to a resistive divider referenced to the target supply, the internal 1.25V comparator triggers PFO when the divided voltage falls below threshold - enabling early-warning power-fail detection independent of the main 3.3V rail.
Is MAX706TEUA+T pin-compatible with other MAX706 variants?
Yes, MAX706TEUA+T is fully pin-compatible with all MAX706xUxA variants (e.g., MAX706REUA+T, MAX706SEUA+T) in the µMAX package. All share identical pinout, electrical interface, and functional block diagram - differing only in reset threshold voltage (R=2.63V, S=2.93V, T=3.08V) and temperature grade.
