Product details
Overview
MXD1815XR29 from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor reset supervisor IC designed for +2.5V/+3.0V/+3.3V digital systems. It provides active-low, open-drain RESET output with factory-set 2.88V reset threshold (±2.5% over temperature), 100ms minimum reset timeout, and operates from -40°C to +105°C in SC70-3 package. It monitors VCC supply integrity and asserts reset during brownout or power-up sequencing in portable controllers.
For engineers reviewing the MXD1815XR29 datasheet, MXD1815XR29 pinout, MXD1815XR29 application, or MXD1815XR29 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical behavior, manual-reset capability validation, thermal stability data, and precise reset timing specifications required for reliable μP supervision in battery-powered and industrial embedded designs.
Technical Context
The MXD1815XR29 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with hysteresis to detect VCC drops below 2.88V, coupled to a monostable timer that guarantees ≥100ms reset assertion after VCC recovery. Its internal 5.5kΩ pullup resistor enables direct interface with bidirectional μP reset pins without external components.
Unlike push-pull variants, MXD1815XR29 uses open-drain output architecture and belongs to the MXD1815–MXD1818 subfamily optimized for 2.5V–3.3V systems. It does not include manual-reset debouncing - that feature is exclusive to MXD1813/MXD1818 - and its reset assertion remains valid down to VCC = +1V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.88V (factory-trimmed, ±2.5% over -40°C to +105°C) - ensures reliable detection of 3.3V supply brownout before logic corruption occurs |
| Reset Timeout Period | 100ms minimum - guarantees sufficient hold time for μP initialization across all operating temperatures |
| Supply Current | 4µA typical at +3.6V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered monitoring applications |
| Operating Voltage Range | +1.0V to +5.5V - supports valid reset signaling even during deep brownout conditions down to 1V |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - allows wired-OR configuration and compatibility with bidirectional μP reset inputs |
| Internal Pullup Resistor | 5.5kΩ nominal - eliminates need for external pullup while maintaining fast rise time under capacitive loads ≤10pF |
| Power-Supply Transient Immunity | Rejects negative VCC glitches <1.5µs at 2.88V overdrive - prevents false resets from switching noise |
Pinout & Package
MXD1815XR29 is housed in a 3-pin SC70 package (outline X3-2, land pattern 90-0208), measuring 2.0mm × 1.25mm × 0.9mm, suitable for high-density PCB layouts in space-constrained portable equipment.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (SC70) | RESET | Active-low open-drain output; sinks current when asserted; pulled high internally via 5.5kΩ resistor to VCC |
| 2 (SC70) | VCC | Main supply input and reset threshold reference; monitored continuously for undervoltage events |
| 3 (SC70) | GND | Analog and digital ground reference; must be low-impedance connection to ensure accurate threshold detection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Precision 2.88V reset threshold | Factory-trimmed ±2.5% over full temperature range ensures consistent brownout detection across environmental extremes |
| No external components required | Integrated pullup, comparator, and timer eliminate discrete resistors/capacitors - reduces BOM count and layout area |
| Low 4µA quiescent current | Enables use in always-on battery-backed systems with >10-year shelf life on CR2032 cells |
| VCC-valid reset down to +1V | Guarantees deterministic RESET state during deep undervoltage - critical for fail-safe shutdown in safety-critical firmware |
| SC70-3 footprint compatibility | Matches industry-standard 3-pin SC70 layout, enabling drop-in replacement for similar supervisors without PCB redesign |
Applications
| Industrial Controller Supervision | Portable Medical Device Power Management |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD29+T | Same 2.88V threshold, SOT23-3 package, but 1.6µA typical ICC and no internal pullup - requires external 47kΩ pullup | Lacks integrated pullup; less suitable for bidirectional reset interfaces without added components | Prefer when ultra-low current (<2µA) dominates design priority and board space permits external resistor |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | 2.93V threshold (±0.5%), 1.8µA ICC, push-pull output - no internal pullup, higher accuracy but different output structure | Push-pull output incompatible with wired-OR or bidirectional reset schemes without level-shifting | Select when highest threshold accuracy is mandatory and system uses dedicated reset line without shared bus topology |
Compared with MXD1815XR29, MAX809TRD29+T trades integrated pullup for lower quiescent current, while TPS3808G33DBVR offers tighter threshold tolerance but requires redesign for push-pull interface compatibility - MXD1815XR29 uniquely balances integration, open-drain flexibility, and 2.88V precision in SC70.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MXD1815XR29 and how stable is it over temperature?
The MXD1815XR29 has a factory-set reset threshold of 2.88V, with guaranteed accuracy of ±2.5% across the full operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C. This specification is validated per Electrical Characteristics table in the official datasheet, and the device maintains this tolerance without external calibration or trimming components.
Does MXD1815XR29 support manual reset functionality via the RESET pin?
No, MXD1815XR29 does not include manual reset detection or debouncing circuitry. That feature is exclusive to MXD1813 and MXD1818 variants. The RESET pin on MXD1815XR29 serves solely as an open-drain output and must not be driven externally - doing so may damage the internal structure or cause undefined behavior.
What package type and dimensions does MXD1815XR29 use, and is it RoHS-compliant?
MXD1815XR29 is supplied in a 3-pin SC70 package (X3-2 outline, land pattern 90-0208), measuring 2.0mm × 1.25mm × 0.9mm. It is available in lead(Pb)-free packaging - indicated by the "+T" suffix - and complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU as confirmed in Maxim's package documentation.
Can MXD1815XR29 drive a reset line shared among multiple microcontrollers?
Yes, MXD1815XR29's open-drain, active-low RESET output supports wired-OR configurations. When used with other open-drain reset sources (e.g., watchdog timers or other supervisors), it allows multiple devices to assert a common reset bus without contention - provided a single external or internal pullup establishes the idle-high state.
What is the minimum VCC voltage at which MXD1815XR29 guarantees valid RESET output logic states?
MXD1815XR29 guarantees correct RESET/RESET logic states down to VCC = +1.0V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics sections. This ensures deterministic reset behavior during deep brownout conditions where many competing supervisors cease functioning reliably below 1.5V.
