Product details
Overview
MAX822TUS from Maxim Integrated is an active-high microprocessor supervisory circuit in a 4-pin SOT143 package, designed to monitor +3V to +5V power supplies and assert a reset signal when VCC falls below a precision threshold of 3.08V (min), with pin-selectable reset timeout delays of 1ms (max), 20ms (min), or 100ms (min). It guarantees RESET validity down to VCC = 1V and delivers 2.5µA supply current for battery-powered systems like bar-code scanners and portable instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX822TUS datasheet, MAX822TUS pinout, MAX822TUS application, or MAX822TUS equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, confirmed SOT143 package mapping, validated pin roles, temperature-stable reset threshold accuracy (±1.5% over −40°C to +125°C), transient immunity specifications, and two rigorously confirmed alternative parts for voltage-monitoring designs requiring active-high reset assertion.
Technical Context
The MAX822TUS implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with 30ppm/°C tempco to detect VCC drops below its fixed 3.08V threshold. Its internal timer initiates only after VCC rises above threshold, with delay duration strictly determined by SRT pin state: grounded (1ms), tied to VCC (20ms), or open (100ms).
Reset assertion is immune to fast transients-capable of rejecting negative-going VCC glitches ≤12µs wide when overdriven by 100mV-and maintains guaranteed logic-level output (VOH ≥0.8VCC, VOL ≤0.4V) across full industrial temperature range (−40°C to +125°C) without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.08V (min); ensures reliable reset assertion before downstream logic enters undervoltage malfunction zone |
| Supply Current | 2.5µA (typ); enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered devices without duty cycling |
| Reset Timeout Options | 1ms (max), 20ms (min), or 100ms (min); selected via SRT pin connection-no firmware or external timing components needed |
| Operating Temp Range | −40°C to +125°C; qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial control, and extended-temperature embedded systems |
| VCC Range | 1.0V to 5.5V; supports valid reset output even during deep brownout recovery down to 1V supply |
| Reset Output Polarity | Active-high; directly interfaces with µP reset inputs requiring high-valid assertion (e.g., ARM Cortex-M, PIC18F) |
| Transient Immunity | Rejects VCC glitches ≤12µs at 100mV overdrive; eliminates false resets from switching noise or ESD-induced supply dips |

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for MAX822TUS?
The MAX822TUS has a nominal reset threshold of 3.08V, with a minimum specified value of 3.00V and maximum of 3.15V over the full −40°C to +125°C temperature range. This fixed threshold is factory-trimmed and does not require external adjustment, ensuring consistent brownout detection across all units and operating conditions. The MAX822TUS datasheet confirms this value in the Electrical Characteristics table under "VTH Reset Threshold" for the "MAX82_T" variant.
How do I configure the reset timeout delay on MAX822TUS?
The reset timeout delay on MAX822TUS is set solely by the SRT pin: connect SRT to GND for 1ms (maximum), tie SRT to VCC for 20ms (minimum), or leave SRT unconnected for 100ms (minimum). No resistors or capacitors are needed. For the 100ms mode, ensure SRT pin capacitance stays below 200pF to prevent unintended shorter delays. These configurations are explicitly defined in the Pin Description and Setting the Reset Timeout Delay sections of the MAX822TUS datasheet.
Does MAX822TUS remain functional when VCC drops below 2.0V?
Yes-the MAX822TUS guarantees valid active-high RESET output down to VCC = 1.0V, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Below 1.0V, the output becomes high-impedance, but for VCC ≥1.0V, VOH remains ≥0.8VCC and VOL ≤0.4V. This behavior is critical for safe shutdown sequencing in battery-powered systems and is a distinguishing feature versus many competing supervisors that cease operation above 2.0V.
Can MAX822TUS replace MAX822TUS-T or MAX822TUS+T?
Yes-MAX822TUS is the base ordering part number indicating tape-and-reel packaging with standard (leaded) finish. MAX822TUS-T denotes the same device in tape-and-reel with leaded finish, while MAX822TUS+T specifies RoHS-compliant lead-free packaging. All share identical electrical specifications, SOT143-4 package dimensions, pinout, and thermal performance. The suffix difference affects only environmental compliance and packaging format-not functionality or design-in compatibility.
Is MAX822TUS compatible with 3.3V-only systems?
Yes-MAX822TUS is explicitly characterized for 3.3V operation: its 3.08V reset threshold sits safely within the typical 3.3V ±5% regulation window (3.135V–3.465V), ensuring reliable assertion before downstream logic fails. The device draws only 2.5µA at 3.3V and maintains full functionality from −40°C to +125°C. Application examples in the MAX822TUS datasheet include 3.3V-powered bar-code scanners and portable instruments, confirming direct drop-in suitability.
