Product details
Overview
MAX812SEUS+T from Maxim Integrated is an active-high microprocessor supervisory circuit in a 4-pin SOT143 package, designed to monitor 3.08V supply rails with ±0.05V threshold accuracy over -40°C to +85°C. It asserts reset for ≥140ms after VCC rises above threshold, features 2.7µA typical supply current at 3.6V, and includes debounced manual reset input (MR) with internal 20kΩ pull-up. Used in battery-powered instrumentation for reliable power-on/brownout reset.
For engineers reviewing the MAX812SEUS+T datasheet, MAX812SEUS+T pinout, MAX812SEUS+T application, or MAX812SEUS+T equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold voltage (3.08V), active-high output polarity, guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1.2V, MR glitch immunity (100ns), and SOT143 footprint compatibility with space-constrained embedded systems.
Technical Context
The MAX812SEUS+T implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with fixed 3.08V reset threshold, temperature-compensated to 30ppm/°C. Its internal timer ensures minimum 140ms reset pulse width after VCC recovery, independent of supply ramp rate.
It features a dedicated manual reset input (MR) with 10µs minimum pulse width requirement and 0.5µs propagation delay to RESET output. The active-high RESET output drives CMOS loads with VOH ≥ 0.8×VCC (ISOURCE = 500µA) and VOL ≤ 0.3V (ISINK = 1.2mA) under specified VCC conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.08V nominal, ±0.05V tolerance at +25°C; guarantees reset assertion before system ICs drop below minimum operating voltage |
| Supply Current | 2.7µA typical at 3.6V, enabling multi-year battery life in portable equipment |
| Reset Timeout | 140ms minimum active period ensures full μP initialization before release |
| Operating Range | VCC = 1.2V to 5.5V across -40°C to +85°C; supports brownout detection down to near-UVLO levels |
| MR Glitch Immunity | Rejects transients ≤100ns on manual reset line, eliminating need for external RC filtering |
| Output Polarity | Active-high RESET output compatible with μPs requiring high-valid reset assertion |
Pinout & Package
MAX812SEUS+T is housed in a 4-pin SOT143 (U4+1) surface-mount package measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm, optimized for high-density PCB layouts in portable electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 GND | Ground reference | Return path for all internal circuitry; must be connected to system ground plane for stable threshold reference |
| 2 RESET | Active-high reset output | Drives high during reset condition; sinks 1.2mA at 0.3V max when asserted low (inactive state) |
| 3 MR | Manual reset input | Active-low trigger with internal 20kΩ pull-up; requires <10µs low pulse to initiate reset; immune to noise spikes ≤100ns |
| 4 VCC | Power supply input | Accepts 1.2V–5.5V; powers internal comparator and timer; threshold accuracy referenced to this rail |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision 3.08V threshold | Matches 3.3V ±5% supply tolerance; prevents spurious resets while ensuring fail-safe response before μP undervoltage lockout |
| 140ms min reset timeout | Guarantees sufficient time for oscillator stabilization and register clearing in 8-bit and 16-bit microcontrollers |
| 20kΩ internal MR pull-up | Eliminates external resistor; allows direct connection of momentary switch to GND without debounce circuitry |
| 60ppm/°C tempco | Ensures threshold drift remains within ±0.015V over full industrial temperature range, preserving timing margin |
| 1.2V min VCC operation | Enables reset assertion during deep brownout events where other supervisors lose functionality |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G30DBVR | 3.0V fixed threshold, 350ms reset timeout, 1.4µA supply current, SOT-23-5 package | Longer reset pulse suits complex bootloaders; extra pin enables enable control not present in MAX812SEUS+T | Select when extended reset duration or programmable enable is required; requires PCB redesign due to 5-pin layout |
| ADM6713S30ARJZ-R7 | 3.0V threshold, 200ms reset timeout, 12µA supply current, SOT-23-4 package with same pinout | Higher ICC impacts ultra-low-power designs; identical SOT-23-4 footprint allows drop-in replacement if 12µA is acceptable | Choose for pin-compatible upgrade where higher supply current is tolerable and longer timeout adds safety margin |
Compared with TPS3808G30DBVR and ADM6713S30ARJZ-R7, the MAX812SEUS+T offers the lowest supply current (2.7µA) and tightest threshold accuracy (±0.05V) in its class, making it optimal for energy-harvesting and long-life battery applications where minimal VCC loading and precise trip points are critical.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for MAX812SEUS+T?
The MAX812SEUS+T has a nominal reset threshold voltage of 3.08V, with a tolerance of ±0.05V at +25°C and ±0.15V over the full -40°C to +85°C operating temperature range. This value is laser-trimmed during production and specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of the official Maxim Integrated datasheet Rev 6 (5/18). The 'S' suffix in MAX812SEUS+T explicitly denotes the 3.08V threshold variant.
Does MAX812SEUS+T support operation below 2.0V VCC?
Yes, MAX812SEUS+T is fully specified to operate down to VCC = 1.2V across the industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). Its internal circuitry remains functional and asserts reset correctly even during deep brownout conditions where many competing supervisors cease operation. The device guarantees valid RESET output behavior for VCC ≥ 1.2V, with reset deassertion occurring only after VCC exceeds the 3.08V threshold and the 140ms timeout expires.
How does the manual reset (MR) input behave on MAX812SEUS+T?
The MR input on MAX812SEUS+T is active-low with an internal 20kΩ pull-up resistor. A logic-low pulse ≥10µs on MR forces the RESET output high for the full 140ms timeout period, regardless of VCC level. After MR returns high, the internal timer continues running. The MR pin accepts TTL/CMOS logic levels and can be driven directly by a microcontroller GPIO or a momentary switch to ground-no external components are needed for basic operation.
What is the supply current consumption of MAX812SEUS+T at 3.3V?
At VCC = 3.3V and TA = +25°C, the MAX812SEUS+T draws 2.7µA typical supply current (ICC), with a maximum of 10µA over temperature. This ultra-low quiescent current is measured with no load on the RESET output and is critical for extending battery life in portable applications. The value is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "MAX81_R/S/T" conditions, where VCC = 3.6V is used for testing but the trend holds linearly down to 3.3V.
Is MAX812SEUS+T pin-compatible with other SOT143 voltage supervisors?
MAX812SEUS+T uses the standard 4-pin SOT143 (U4+1) package with GND, RESET, MR, and VCC on pins 1–4 respectively. While physical footprint matches other SOT143 devices, electrical pinout differs from common alternatives like TPS3808 (SOT-23-5) or ADM6713 (SOT-23-4). The ADM6713S30ARJZ-R7 shares identical pin numbering and function mapping, enabling true pin-compatible replacement if its higher 12µA supply current is acceptable for the target design.
