Product details
Overview
MAX811MEUS+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit that monitors 4.38V supply rails and asserts an active-low reset signal for ≥140ms after VCC rises above threshold; it features manual reset input, guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC = 1V, and operates in -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature range for embedded μP power monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the MAX811MEUS+T datasheet, MAX811MEUS+T pinout, MAX811MEUS+T application, or MAX811MEUS+T equivalent, this page delivers verified reset threshold (4.38V), supply current (6µA), timeout duration (140–560ms), MR glitch immunity (100ns), and SOT143 package details essential for brownout protection and portable system design.
Technical Context
The MAX811MEUS+T implements a precision voltage comparator with internal 4.38V reset threshold and a monostable timer that enforces minimum 140ms reset pulse width after VCC recovery. Its reset logic remains functional down to VCC = 1V, ensuring deterministic state initialization during deep brownouts.
It integrates a debounced manual reset input (MR) with 20kΩ internal pull-up, 10µs minimum pulse width requirement, and 100ns glitch immunity-enabling direct switch connection without external RC networks. The device ignores fast VCC transients ≤40µs (for L/M variants) at 125mV overdrive.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.38V nominal (±0.13V over -40°C to +85°C); ensures reliable detection of 5V ±5% supply undervoltage before downstream ICs fail. |
| Supply Current | 6µA typical at 5.5V; enables multi-year battery life in portable equipment without compromising supervision integrity. |
| Reset Timeout | 140ms minimum, up to 560ms maximum; guarantees sufficient μP initialization time across full temperature range. |
| MR Glitch Immunity | 100ns; rejects EMI-induced noise on manual reset line without external filtering. |
| VCC to RESET Delay | 40µs (at 125mV overdrive); provides rapid response to supply collapse while ignoring sub-40µs transients. |
| RESET Validity Range | Guaranteed logic-low output down to VCC = 1V; maintains valid reset assertion during deep brownout recovery. |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial and automotive under-hood environments requiring extended thermal stability. |
Pinout & Package
MAX811MEUS+T is housed in a 4-pin SOT143 surface-mount package (outline 21-0052, land pattern 90-0183), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm, optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in portable and embedded systems.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for all internal comparators and timer; must be connected directly to system ground plane for noise immunity. |
| 2 | RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output; sinks ≥3.2mA at VCC = VTH(MIN); requires external pull-up for CMOS-compatible logic levels. |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC via 20kΩ resistor; accepts TTL/CMOS logic or momentary switch to GND. |
| 4 | VCC | Primary power supply input (1.2V to 5.5V); powers internal circuitry and defines reset threshold reference point. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external components required | Integrated voltage reference, comparator, and timing capacitor eliminate BOM cost and layout area for basic reset supervision. |
| Manual reset with internal pull-up | 20kΩ MR pull-up enables single-switch implementation-no external resistor needed unless noise immunity demands 0.1µF MR-to-GND decoupling. |
| Reset assertion below 1V VCC | Ensures μP remains held in reset until stable supply is fully restored-even during partial power collapse scenarios. |
| Transient-immune comparator | Rejects VCC glitches ≤40µs (L/M variants) at 125mV overdrive, preventing spurious resets in electrically noisy environments. |
| Lead(Pb)-free RoHS-compliant packaging | +T suffix denotes lead-free SOT143 construction per JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1). |

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for MAX811MEUS+T?
The MAX811MEUS+T has a nominal reset threshold of 4.38V, with guaranteed tolerance of 4.25V to 4.50V over the full -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range. This value is laser-trimmed at wafer test and confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table of the official datasheet revision 6.
Does MAX811MEUS+T support manual reset functionality, and how is it implemented?
Yes, MAX811MEUS+T supports manual reset via its MR pin (Pin 3), which is an active-low input with an internal 20kΩ pull-up resistor. A momentary switch from MR to GND initiates reset; no external components are required. The device holds RESET low for ≥140ms after MR returns high, providing built-in debouncing.
Can MAX811MEUS+T operate reliably when VCC drops below 1V?
MAX811MEUS+T guarantees correct RESET output state (logic low) for VCC down to 1V. Below 1V, the RESET output becomes high-impedance. For applications requiring valid reset signaling down to 0V, a 100kΩ pulldown resistor on the RESET pin is recommended per Maxim's application guidance.
What is the supply current consumption of MAX811MEUS+T at 5.5V?
At VCC = 5.5V and TA = +25°C, the MAX811MEUS+T draws 6µA typical supply current (ICC), with a maximum of 15µA over temperature. This ultra-low quiescent current makes it ideal for battery-backed and energy-harvesting systems where standby power budget is critical.
Is MAX811MEUS+T pin-compatible with other members of the MAX811/MAX812 family?
Yes, all MAX811/MAX812 variants-including MAX811MEUS+T-share identical 4-pin SOT143 pinout and footprint. The only functional differences are reset threshold voltage (determined by suffix letter) and RESET polarity (MAX811 = active-low, MAX812 = active-high); electrical and mechanical compatibility is maintained across the family.
