Product details
Overview
MXD1812XR46 from Maxim Integrated is a precision microprocessor reset supervisor IC designed for +5V systems, featuring an active-high push-pull RESET output, 4.62V factory-trimmed reset threshold (±2.5% over temperature), 100ms minimum reset timeout, and operation down to VCC = +1V. It monitors supply voltage integrity in embedded controllers and portable equipment to prevent erroneous code execution during power-up, brownout, or power-down.
For engineers reviewing the MXD1812XR46 datasheet, MXD1812XR46 pinout, MXD1812XR46 application, or MXD1812XR46 equivalent, key selection criteria include its active-high push-pull output logic, guaranteed reset assertion at VCC ≥ 1V, SC70-3 package compatibility, and immunity to fast VCC transients up to 100µs at 100mV overdrive.
Technical Context
The MXD1812XR46 integrates a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with hysteresis and a monolithic timer circuit to generate a fixed 100ms (min) reset pulse upon VCC recovery. Its internal architecture ensures reset remains asserted during VCC fall below 4.62V and sustains the high-level output for the full timeout after VCC rises above threshold.
No external components are required: the device uses a single-supply input (VCC), provides rail-to-rail RESET output drive capability (350µA source, 10mA sink), and maintains valid logic states across -40°C to +105°C without calibration or trimming.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.62V ±2.5% over -40°C to +105°C - ensures reliable detection of +5V supply collapse before system instability occurs |
| Reset Timeout Period | 100ms (min) - guarantees sufficient processor initialization time after VCC recovery |
| Supply Current | 4µA typical at +3.6V - enables use in battery-powered systems with multi-year standby life |
| VCC Operating Range | +1.0V to +5.5V - supports valid RESET output even during deep brownout conditions |
| Output Type | Active-high push-pull - eliminates need for external pullup resistor and interfaces directly with µP reset inputs requiring high-active assertion |
| Package | 3-pin SC70 - 2.0mm × 2.1mm footprint ideal for space-constrained portable designs |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +105°C - qualified for industrial and extended-temperature embedded applications |
Pinout & Package
MXD1812XR46 is housed in a 3-pin SC70 package (outline X3-2, land pattern 90-0208), with pin 1 = RESET (active-high push-pull), pin 2 = VCC (supply and threshold monitor input), pin 3 = GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | RESET | Active-high push-pull output - drives high during normal operation; pulls low only during reset assertion (not applicable to MXD1812); remains high for ≥100ms after VCC recovers above 4.62V |
| 2 | VCC | Power supply input and reset threshold reference - supplies internal circuitry and serves as the monitored voltage rail |
| 3 | GND | Ground reference - establishes common return path for internal comparator and output stage |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-set 4.62V reset threshold | Eliminates external resistor network and calibration effort for +5V system monitoring |
| Active-high push-pull RESET output | Direct interface with microprocessors requiring high-active reset (e.g., certain ARM Cortex-M variants) |
| 100ms minimum reset timeout | Guarantees sufficient time for flash memory initialization and PLL lock in modern µPs |
| 4µA supply current | Enables integration into always-on subsystems without compromising battery runtime |
| VCC = +1V operation guarantee | Maintains deterministic reset state during severe brownout, preventing undefined µP behavior |
Applications
| Industrial Controllers | Portable Medical Devices |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 5V backup rail and asserts active-high reset to secure MCU if voltage drops below 4.62V. Use Value: Low 4µA quiescent current extends supercapacitor hold-up time, preserving data integrity across longer outages. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TR46D3T | Same 4.62V threshold, SOT23-3 package, but active-low open-drain output with internal 5.5kΩ pullup | Requires level-shifting or redesign for µPs needing active-high reset; compatible where bidirectional reset pins exist | Select when interfacing with legacy µPs specifying active-low reset and supporting open-drain topology |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 3.3V threshold, adjustable via external resistor; 350ms timeout; 1.5µA supply current; SOT23-5 package | Not pin-compatible; requires PCB layout change and external component for threshold setting | Choose for ultra-low-power applications where 3.3V monitoring suffices and longer timeout is acceptable |
Compared with MXD1812XR46, MAX809TR46D3T offers identical threshold accuracy but mandates active-low system integration, while TPS3808G33DBVR trades pin compatibility for lower quiescent current and programmable timing-neither is a drop-in replacement due to output polarity or package mismatch.

FAQ
What is the reset output logic polarity of the MXD1812XR46?
The MXD1812XR46 features an active-high push-pull RESET output. During normal operation (VCC > 4.62V), RESET is driven high; when VCC falls below the threshold, RESET transitions low for the duration of the reset timeout period. This differs from MXD1810/MXD1815 (active-low push-pull) and MXD1811/MXD1816 (active-low open-drain). The MXD1812XR46's output does not require an external pullup resistor.
Does the MXD1812XR46 support manual reset functionality?
No, the MXD1812XR46 does not include manual reset detection. That feature is exclusive to the MXD1813/MXD1818 variants, which assert reset upon a 1.5µs minimum low pulse on the RESET pin. The MXD1812XR46 is a dedicated supply-monitoring supervisor with automatic reset generation only-no external push-button interface capability.
What is the minimum VCC voltage at which MXD1812XR46 guarantees valid RESET output?
The MXD1812XR46 guarantees correct RESET logic state down to VCC = +1.0V across the full operating temperature range (-40°C to +105°C). Below this voltage, output drive strength degrades, but the device maintains defined behavior through its entire specified operating range-critical for brownout resilience in battery-powered systems.
Can MXD1812XR46 be used in +3.3V systems?
No, MXD1812XR46 is factory-configured for +5V systems with a 4.62V reset threshold. Using it in +3.3V applications would cause continuous reset assertion since VCC never exceeds the threshold. For +3.3V monitoring, select MXD1815–MXD1818 variants with suffixes R29 (2.88V), R31 (3.06V), or R26 (2.55V), such as MXD1815XR29.
What package type and footprint does MXD1812XR46 use?
MXD1812XR46 is supplied in a 3-pin SC70 package (outline X3-2, land pattern 90-0208), measuring 2.0mm × 2.1mm with 0.65mm lead pitch. It is pin-compatible with other SC70-3 reset supervisors and offers significantly smaller area than SOT23-3 alternatives-ideal for compact portable and wearable electronics designs.
