Product details
Overview
MXD1816UR26+T from Maxim Integrated is an open-drain, active-low microprocessor reset IC designed for +2.5V/+3.0V/+3.3V digital systems. It monitors VCC and asserts RESET when supply voltage falls below 2.55V (±2.5% over temperature), maintains reset for ≥100ms after VCC recovery, draws only 4μA typical supply current, and integrates a 5.5kΩ internal pullup resistor - ideal for portable, battery-powered μP supervision.
For engineers reviewing the MXD1816UR26+T datasheet, MXD1816UR26+T pinout, MXD1816UR26+T application, or MXD1816UR26+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its factory-trimmed 2.55V reset threshold, SOT23-3 open-drain output with internal pullup, guaranteed operation down to VCC = +1V, and compatibility with bidirectional μP reset pins without external components.
Technical Context
This device implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with hysteresis and a monostable timeout circuit. Its reset assertion is triggered solely by VCC falling below the 2.55V threshold, with no manual reset capability - distinguishing it from MXD1813/MXD1818 variants. The open-drain output enables wired-OR configurations and direct interfacing with bidirectional μP reset pins like those on Motorola 68HC11.
The internal 5.5kΩ pullup ensures defined logic-high state when RESET is inactive, while sink capability of 10mA at VOUT = 0.4V supports standard TTL/CMOS loads. Immunity to fast VCC transients is achieved via comparator design that ignores glitches shorter than ~1–2µs depending on overdrive magnitude.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.55V ±2.5% over -40°C to +105°C - ensures reliable brownout detection for 2.5V/3.0V/3.3V systems |
| Reset Timeout Period | 100ms minimum after VCC rise - guarantees sufficient hold time for μP initialization sequences |
| Supply Current | 4μA typical at +3.6V - enables multi-year battery life in portable equipment |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - allows wired-OR reset buses and interface with bidirectional μP reset pins |
| Internal Pullup Resistor | 5.5kΩ nominal - eliminates need for external pullup in most applications |
| Operating Voltage Range | +1.2V to +5.5V - supports valid RESET assertion down to VCC = +1V for fail-safe behavior |
| VCC Transient Immunity | Rejects sub-2µs negative-going glitches - prevents spurious resets during noisy power events |
Pinout & Package
MXD1816UR26+T is housed in a 3-pin SOT23 package (U3-1 outline), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm, RoHS-compliant and lead(Pb)-free.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (RESET) | Open-drain active-low reset output | Sinks current when asserted (low); floats high via internal 5.5kΩ pullup when inactive - compatible with bidirectional μP reset inputs |
| 2 (VCC) | Power supply and reset threshold reference input | Monitors system supply directly; device operates from +1.2V to +5.5V and asserts reset if VCC drops below 2.55V |
| 3 (GND) | Ground reference | Return path for internal comparator and output stage; must be low-impedance to ensure accurate threshold detection |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external components required | Integrates precision voltage reference, comparator, timer, and 5.5kΩ pullup - reduces BOM count and PCB area |
| Factory-set 2.55V reset threshold | Eliminates trimming or calibration; ±2.5% accuracy maintained across full -40°C to +105°C range |
| Guaranteed operation to VCC = +1V | Ensures predictable reset state during deep brownout - critical for data integrity in battery-backed systems |
| Low 4μA supply current | Enables always-on supervision in energy-constrained devices such as wearables and IoT sensors |
| 3-pin SOT23 footprint | Compatible with automated assembly and space-constrained layouts; pinout matches industry-standard reset ICs |
Applications

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides active-low open-drain RESET signal tied to processor's bidirectional reset pin, enabling both hardware and software-initiated reset coordination. Use Value: Internal 5.5kΩ pullup eliminates external component; SOT23-3 footprint saves board space in thermally dense router PCBs. |
Use Scenario: Ensuring reliable startup and brownout recovery in ANSI C12.22-compliant electricity meters with isolated 3.3V logic rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Asserts RESET during AC line interruptions or capacitor discharge events, maintaining reset until stable 3.3V rail is restored for ≥100ms. Use Value: ±2.5% threshold accuracy over temperature avoids premature resets in outdoor meter enclosures exposed to -40°C to +85°C ambient swings. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD3+T | 2.93V reset threshold, push-pull output, no internal pullup | Requires external pullup for wired-OR; less suitable for bidirectional μP reset pins | Select when higher reset threshold is needed and open-drain functionality is not required |
| TPS3808G125DBVR | 1.25V threshold, adjustable via external resistor, 350ms timeout, higher 8μA ICC | Supports custom thresholds but adds BOM complexity and consumes more current | Select when precise 1.25V monitoring or programmable timeout is mandatory |
Compared with MXD1816UR26+T, MAX809TRD3+T offers push-pull simplicity but lacks integrated pullup for bidirectional interfaces, while TPS3808G125DBVR provides flexibility at the cost of higher current and external component dependency - MXD1816UR26+T delivers optimal balance of fixed 2.55V accuracy, ultra-low power, and open-drain readiness in minimal footprint.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of MXD1816UR26+T and how stable is it over temperature?
The MXD1816UR26+T has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 2.55V with ±2.5% accuracy guaranteed over the full -40°C to +105°C operating range. This stability is achieved through precision bandgap reference design and on-die trimming, ensuring consistent brownout detection across environmental extremes without external calibration.
Does MXD1816UR26+T support manual reset functionality via the RESET pin?
No, MXD1816UR26+T does not include manual reset detection. Unlike MXD1813/MXD1818 variants, it responds only to VCC-supply monitoring. Its RESET pin is strictly an open-drain output - pulling it low externally will not trigger a reset pulse or initiate debounced timing.
Can MXD1816UR26+T be used with microprocessors that have bidirectional reset pins?
Yes, MXD1816UR26+T is explicitly designed for this use case. Its open-drain, active-low RESET output interfaces directly with bidirectional μP reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11) without external components - the internal 5.5kΩ pullup ensures proper high-state definition while allowing the μP to drive the line low when needed.
What is the maximum sink current capability of the RESET output in MXD1816UR26+T?
The RESET output of MXD1816UR26+T can sink up to 10mA while maintaining VOUT ≤ 0.4V at VCC ≥ 2.7V. This drives standard TTL/CMOS inputs reliably and supports multiple loads in wired-OR configurations - verified per Electrical Characteristics table under IOL parameter.
Is MXD1816UR26+T specified to operate down to VCC = 0V, and what happens to RESET output near minimum supply?
MXD1816UR26+T is guaranteed functional down to VCC = +1V, and RESET remains valid in that range. Below +1V, the open-drain output loses sinking capability and the internal pullup dominates, causing RESET to drift toward high-impedance - it is not recommended for applications requiring asserted RESET at VCC < +1V.
