Product details
Overview
MAX809JEUR-T from Maxim Integrated is a precision 3-pin microprocessor supervisory circuit with push-pull active-low RESET output, designed to monitor +5V supply rails. It asserts reset when VCC falls below 4.00V (typ), holds reset for ≥140ms after VCC recovers, and guarantees valid reset down to VCC = +1V. Used in automotive control modules, industrial PLCs, and battery-backed embedded systems requiring reliable power-on initialization.
For engineers reviewing the MAX809JEUR-T datasheet, MAX809JEUR-T pinout, MAX809JEUR-T application, or MAX809JEUR-T equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal performance across –40°C to +105°C, SOT23-3 package compatibility, and real-world reset timing behavior under brownout and transient conditions.
Technical Context
The MAX809JEUR-T implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with 30ppm/°C tempco to detect VCC drops below its 4.00V threshold. Its internal timer ensures a minimum 140ms reset pulse width after VCC recovery, independent of supply ramp rate up to 100V/μs.
It features push-pull output capable of sinking 3.2mA at VCC = VTH(min) while maintaining VOL ≤ 0.4V, and operates with supply current as low as 17µA (typ) at VCC = 3.6V and TA = +25°C - enabling use in low-power portable and automotive applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.00V (typ), 3.80V to 4.20V over –40°C to +125°C - ensures reset activation before critical logic voltage margin loss on +5V systems. |
| Reset Pulse Width | ≥140ms (min) after VCC rises above threshold - provides sufficient time for μP core and peripherals to stabilize before release. |
| Supply Current | 17µA (typ) at VCC = 3.6V, TA = +25°C - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered backup circuits. |
| VCC Operating Range | 1.2V to 5.5V - supports valid reset assertion even during deep brownout down to 1.2V (–40°C to +105°C). |
| Output Type | Push-pull active-low RESET - eliminates external pullup resistor, simplifies PCB layout, and drives CMOS/TTL inputs directly. |
| Reset Valid Down To | VCC = +1V - guarantees defined logic state at RESET pin while most μPs remain nonfunctional, preventing metastability. |
| Package | SOT23-3 - industry-standard 3-pin footprint compatible with automated assembly and space-constrained automotive ECUs. |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-3 package: 3-pin surface-mount, 1.3mm × 2.9mm body, 0.95mm pitch, JEDEC MO-178AA compliant. RoHS-compliant, lead-free termination.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - GND | Ground reference | Return path for internal comparator and output stage; must be connected to system ground plane for noise immunity. |
| 2 - RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output | Drives low during reset condition (VCC < 4.00V); releases high after timeout - directly interfaces μP reset input without external components. |
| 3 - VCC | Supply voltage input | Monitored +5V rail input; powers internal circuitry and defines reset threshold reference - bypass capacitor (0.1µF) required at pin. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision 4.00V reset threshold | ±2.5% tolerance over –40°C to +105°C ensures deterministic reset timing across automotive temperature range. |

| 12µA typical supply current | Enables integration into always-on subsystems (e.g., CAN wake-up monitors) without compromising battery life. |
| VCC transient immunity | Rejects negative-going VCC glitches ≤20µs at 100mV overdrive - prevents spurious resets in noisy engine-control environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G12DBVR | 4.00V threshold, but 350ms min reset timeout and higher 24µA ICC (typ) - uses internal capacitor for longer delay. | Preferred where extended reset hold time is required for complex FPGAs; less suitable for fast-recovery systems. | Select TPS3808G12DBVR only if >200ms reset pulse is mandatory and board space allows larger SOT23-5 footprint. |
| STM809TWDY3F | 4.00V threshold, SOT23-3, but rated only to +85°C ambient and lacks AEC-Q100 qualification. | Acceptable for commercial-grade industrial controllers but not for under-hood automotive use. | Choose STM809TWDY3F for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where extended temperature range is unnecessary. |
Compared with TPS3808G12DBVR and STM809TWDY3F, the MAX809JEUR-T uniquely balances automotive-grade temperature range (–40°C to +105°C), AEC-Q100 qualification, minimal 140ms reset timeout, and ultra-low ICC - making it optimal for space-constrained, safety-critical ECU power monitoring.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MAX809JEUR-T, and how does it vary with temperature?
The MAX809JEUR-T has a nominal reset threshold of 4.00V at +25°C, with guaranteed limits of 3.80V (min) to 4.20V (max) over the full operating temperature range of –40°C to +125°C. Its temperature coefficient is 30ppm/°C, meaning threshold drift is tightly controlled - for example, at –40°C it remains within 3.80V, and at +125°C stays within 4.20V. This precision ensures consistent reset behavior across automotive and industrial thermal profiles, and is fully specified in the official Maxim datasheet for MAX809JEUR-T.
Does the MAX809JEUR-T require an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin?
No, the MAX809JEUR-T does not require an external pullup resistor because it features a push-pull active-low RESET output. Unlike open-drain variants (e.g., MAX803), the MAX809JEUR-T actively drives the RESET pin high when deasserted and low when asserted - enabling direct connection to standard CMOS or TTL reset inputs without additional components. This simplifies design, reduces BOM cost, and improves noise immunity compared to open-drain solutions requiring careful pullup selection. The MAX809JEUR-T datasheet confirms this architecture explicitly.
What is the minimum reset pulse width guaranteed by the MAX809JEUR-T, and under what conditions is it valid?
The MAX809JEUR-T guarantees a minimum reset pulse width of 140ms after VCC rises above the reset threshold, valid across its full operating temperature range (–40°C to +105°C for the EUR variant) and supply range (1.2V to 5.5V). This timing is internally generated and independent of external capacitors or supply ramp rates - even for VCC rise times as fast as 100V/μs. The 140ms specification ensures sufficient time for microprocessors, FPGAs, and memory devices to complete internal initialization before release, and is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the MAX809JEUR-T datasheet.
Is the MAX809JEUR-T qualified for automotive applications, and what standards does it meet?
Yes, the MAX809JEUR-T is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications, as explicitly stated in the "Benefits and Features" section of its official datasheet. It meets stress test requirements for temperature cycling, humidity, and ESD robustness required in passenger vehicle ECUs. The "/V" suffix denotes automotive qualification, and while MAX809JEUR-T itself carries the EUR temperature grade (–40°C to +105°C), its AEC-Q100 certification validates suitability for under-dash and engine-compartment–adjacent modules. This makes MAX809JEUR-T appropriate for ASIL-B–relevant power monitoring functions in modern automotive electronics.
How does the MAX809JEUR-T behave when VCC drops below 1V, and why is this important?
The MAX809JEUR-T guarantees valid RESET output down to VCC = +1V - meaning the RESET pin maintains a defined logic state (low, since it's active-low) until VCC reaches +1V. Below +1V, the output stage ceases to sink current and becomes high-impedance. This behavior is critical because most microcontrollers cease operation well above 1V; thus, the MAX809JEUR-T ensures no undefined reset states occur during brownout, eliminating risk of partial execution or latch-up. The datasheet specifies this limit clearly, and it distinguishes MAX809JEUR-T from lower-cost supervisors that lose output control near 1.5V or higher.
