Product details
Overview
MXD1816XR31 from Maxim Integrated is a low-power microprocessor reset supervisor IC with open-drain, active-low RESET output and internal 5.5kΩ pullup resistor, designed for +2.5V/+3.0V/+3.3V systems. It monitors VCC and asserts reset when supply drops below 3.06V (±2.5% over temperature), maintains reset for ≥100ms after VCC recovery, operates from -40°C to +105°C, and draws only 4μA typical supply current - ideal for portable/battery-powered equipment requiring reliable power-on reset.
For engineers reviewing the MXD1816XR31 datasheet, MXD1816XR31 pinout, MXD1816XR31 application, or MXD1816XR31 equivalent, this device serves as a precision voltage-monitoring reset controller for critical μP/μC power sequencing in space-constrained industrial and embedded designs where low quiescent current and factory-trimmed threshold accuracy are essential.
Technical Context
The MXD1816XR31 implements a bandgap-based voltage comparator with hysteresis to detect VCC falling below its factory-set 3.06V threshold, triggering an open-drain RESET assertion. Its internal timer guarantees minimum 100ms reset timeout after VCC rises above threshold, independent of VCC slew rate.
This variant belongs to the MXD1815–MXD1818 subfamily for 2.5V/3.0V/3.3V systems and features no manual-reset input - unlike MXD1818 - and lacks debounced push-button detection. Its open-drain output interfaces directly with bidirectional μP reset pins without external pullup components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.06V ±2.5% over -40°C to +105°C - ensures reliable brownout detection for 3.3V systems with margin against noise-induced false triggers |

| Supply Current | 4μA typical at +3.6V - enables multi-year battery life in always-on portable monitoring applications |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.2V to 5.5V - supports valid RESET logic state down to VCC = +1V, enabling robust operation during deep brownouts |
| Output Type | Open-drain, active-low with 5.5kΩ internal pullup - eliminates need for external resistor and simplifies interface to bidirectional μP reset pins |
| Package | 3-pin SC70 - 2.0mm × 1.25mm footprint ideal for ultra-compact PCB layouts in handheld and IoT edge devices |
| Temperature Range | -40°C to +105°C - qualified for industrial and extended-temperature embedded control environments |
Pinout & Package
MXD1816XR31 is housed in a 3-pin SC70 package (outline X3-2), measuring 2.0mm × 1.25mm × 0.9mm, with gull-wing leads and RoHS-compliant lead-free finish. The package supports reflow soldering per JEDEC J-STD-020 and is rated for 150°C peak reflow temperature.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| 2 (SC70) / 1 (SOT23) | VCC | Power supply input and reset-threshold reference; monitors system rail; functional down to +1.2V |
| 3 | GND | Analog ground reference for internal comparator and timer; must be connected to system ground plane for stable threshold accuracy |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD3-T | 3.08V reset threshold, SOT23-3 package, 12μA max ICC, no internal pullup - requires external 47kΩ pullup | Higher supply current and external component requirement reduce suitability for ultra-low-power portable designs | Select when legacy SOT23 footprint compatibility is required and 12μA ICC is acceptable |
| TPS3808G30DBVR | 3.0V threshold, 1.6μA typical ICC, adjustable timeout via capacitor, SOT23-6 - larger footprint and more complex configuration | Capacitor-programmable timeout adds flexibility but increases BOM count and layout area versus fixed 100ms solution | Select when timeout customization is needed and lower ICC outweighs added design overhead |
Compared with MAX809TRD3-T and TPS3808G30DBVR, MXD1816XR31 delivers optimal balance of ultra-low 4μA current, factory-trimmed 3.06V accuracy, internal pullup, and minimal 3-pin SC70 footprint - making it superior for space- and power-constrained 3.3V embedded systems where simplicity and long battery life are primary drivers.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MXD1816XR31 and how stable is it over temperature?
The MXD1816XR31 has a factory-set reset threshold of 3.06V, with guaranteed accuracy of ±2.5% across the full -40°C to +105°C operating range. This stability is achieved through laser-trimmed bandgap reference circuitry and is confirmed in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Reset Threshold" for suffix R31. The MXD1816XR31 maintains this precision without external calibration or compensation components.
Does the MXD1816XR31 support manual reset functionality via the RESET pin?
No, the MXD1816XR31 does not include manual reset detection. Unlike the MXD1818XR31 (which features debounced push-button reset), the MXD1816XR31 is a dedicated power-supply monitor with reset assertion solely triggered by VCC falling below 3.06V. Its RESET pin is output-only and cannot be used as an input for external reset initiation - this is explicitly confirmed in the Pin Descriptions and Selector Guide sections of the datasheet.
What is the function of the internal pullup resistor in the MXD1816XR31, and what is its nominal value?
MXD1816XR31 includes an internal 5.5kΩ pullup resistor connected to the open-drain RESET output, enabling direct interface with microprocessors that have bidirectional reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11) without requiring an external pullup. This resistor ensures a defined high state when RESET is not asserted, and its value is specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under "Internal Pullup Resistor, Open-Drain" for MXD1816 devices. The MXD1816XR31 thus reduces BOM count and PCB area versus alternatives needing external resistors.
Can the MXD1816XR31 operate reliably at VCC levels below 2.5V, and down to what voltage does RESET remain valid?
Yes, the MXD1816XR31 is guaranteed to maintain valid RESET logic states down to VCC = +1.2V over temperature, and functional operation is specified from VCC = +1.0V (with degraded timing). The datasheet confirms RESET remains asserted or deasserted correctly even at 1.2V, supporting brownout detection in deeply undervolted conditions. However, the MXD1816XR31's open-drain output may drift inactive below ~1.5V due to reduced sinking capability - so applications requiring RESET validity at VCC < 1.5V should use push-pull variants like MXD1817XR31 instead.
Is the MXD1816XR31 pin-compatible with other devices in the MXD181x family, and which packages does it support?
Yes, the MXD1816XR31 shares identical 3-pin SC70 pinout and electrical behavior with all other MXD181x variants in the same package type (e.g., MXD1815XR31, MXD1817XR31), differing only in reset threshold and output configuration. It is offered exclusively in the 3-pin SC70 package (X3-2 outline), not SOT23 - confirmed by the Ordering Information table where "XR" denotes SC70 and "UR" denotes SOT23. The MXD1816XR31's pin mapping (Pin 1 = RESET, Pin 2 = VCC, Pin 3 = GND) is consistent across all SC70 versions.
