Product details
Overview
MXD1818UR23 from Maxim Integrated is an open-drain, active-low microprocessor reset supervisor IC with debounced manual-reset capability, designed for +2.5V/+3.0V/+3.3V systems. It asserts reset when VCC falls below 2.31V (±2.5% over temperature), maintains reset for ≥100ms after VCC recovery, and detects external push-button resets held >1.5μs - used in portable battery-powered equipment requiring reliable power-on and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the MXD1818UR23 datasheet, MXD1818UR23 pinout, MXD1818UR23 application, or MXD1818UR23 equivalent, this page delivers verified circuit role, factory-trimmed threshold accuracy, manual-reset timing behavior, internal 5.5kΩ pullup, and SOT23-3 package compatibility - critical for μP reset validation, BOM replacement, and low-power embedded system design.
Technical Context
The MXD1818UR23 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with hysteresis to monitor VCC and trigger reset on undervoltage events. Its internal timer ensures a fixed 100ms minimum reset timeout after VCC rises above the 2.31V threshold, independent of temperature or supply variation.
It integrates debounced manual-reset detection logic that responds only to RESET pin low pulses ≥1.5μs, rejecting mechanical switch bounce while asserting reset for ≥100ms after release. The open-drain output includes a factory-trimmed 5.5kΩ internal pullup resistor to VCC, eliminating external components for bidirectional μP reset interfaces.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.31V ±2.5% over -40°C to +105°C - guarantees reliable reset activation across industrial temperature range without calibration. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 100ms minimum after VCC rise - ensures μP completes power stabilization before release from reset state. |
| Supply Current | 4μA typical at +3.6V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell–powered portable devices. |
| Manual Reset Detect Width | 1.5μs minimum low pulse on RESET pin - rejects switch bounce while enabling fast user-initiated reset. |
| Operating Voltage Range | 1.2V to 5.5V - supports valid reset assertion down to near-dead-battery conditions (VCC ≥1.2V). |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low with internal 5.5kΩ pullup - interfaces directly with bidirectional μP reset pins (e.g., Motorola 68HC11) without external resistor. |
| Package | SOT23-3 - industry-standard 3-pin footprint compatible with automated PCB assembly and space-constrained designs. |
Pinout & Package
MXD1818UR23 is housed in a 3-pin SOT23 package (outline U3-1), measuring 2.92mm × 1.3mm × 1.0mm, with gull-wing leads and RoHS-compliant lead-free plating (designated by "+T" suffix). Thermal performance supports continuous operation at +105°C ambient.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (RESET) | Open-drain active-low reset output with manual-reset input | Drives low during VCC undervoltage or external manual trigger; accepts debounced push-button signal; internal 5.5kΩ pullup to VCC eliminates external component. |
| 2 (VCC) | Power supply and reset-threshold monitoring input | Supplies internal circuitry and serves as reference for comparator; valid operation guaranteed from 1.2V to 5.5V. |
| 3 (GND) | Ground reference | Common return path for internal comparator, timer, and output stage; must be low-impedance for noise immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-set 2.31V reset threshold | Eliminates external resistor network and calibration effort; ±2.5% accuracy maintained over full -40°C to +105°C range. |
| Debounced manual-reset input | Rejects <1.5μs glitches from mechanical switches; triggers guaranteed 100ms reset pulse upon valid button press - no external RC filter required. |
| Internal 5.5kΩ pullup resistor | Enables direct connection to bidirectional μP reset pins (e.g., 68HC11); removes need for discrete pullup and saves board area. |
| 4μA typical supply current | Extends battery life in portable instrumentation and handheld controllers; supports always-on supervision without significant drain. |
| Transient-immune comparator | Rejects negative-going VCC glitches ≤100ns at 200mV overdrive - prevents spurious resets during digital switching noise. |
Applications

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 | Fixed 3.08V reset threshold; no manual-reset input; 140ms min timeout; SOT23-3 package | Lacks push-button debounce; suited for simple power-on reset only, not field-serviceable devices | Select when only basic VCC monitoring is needed and manual reset is handled externally. |
| TPS3808G125DBVR | Adjustable threshold via external resistor; 200ms min timeout; higher 8μA quiescent current; same SOT23-3 footprint | Requires external resistor network; better for custom threshold needs but increases BOM count and layout area | Choose when precise non-standard reset voltage (e.g., 2.45V) is required and extra component cost is acceptable. |
Compared with MXD1818UR23, MAX809TRD3-T offers simpler supervision but omits manual-reset functionality, while TPS3808G125DBVR provides flexibility at the cost of higher current and external component dependency - MXD1818UR23 uniquely balances factory-trimmed accuracy, integrated debounce, and ultra-low power in a 3-pin solution.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the MXD1818UR23?
The MXD1818UR23 has a factory-trimmed reset threshold of 2.31V, with guaranteed accuracy of ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C. This value is confirmed in the Reset Threshold Table and Electrical Characteristics section of the official datasheet, and applies specifically to the "R23" suffix variant within the MXD1815–MXD1818 subfamily for 2.5V/3.0V/3.3V systems.
Does the MXD1818UR23 require an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin?
No, the MXD1818UR23 does not require an external pullup resistor. It integrates a factory-trimmed 5.5kΩ internal pullup resistor connected between the open-drain RESET pin and VCC. This enables direct interface with bidirectional μP reset inputs (e.g., Motorola 68HC11) without additional components, as verified in the Pin Descriptions and Applications Information sections of the datasheet.
How does the manual-reset function work on the MXD1818UR23?
The MXD1818UR23 detects manual reset by monitoring the RESET pin: when pulled low for ≥1.5μs, it triggers a debounced reset assertion lasting ≥100ms after the pin is released. This behavior is exclusive to MXD1813/MXD1818 variants and is validated in the Detailed Description and Figure 6 (Manual Reset Timing Diagram) of the datasheet.
What is the supply current consumption of the MXD1818UR23 at 3.3V?
At VCC = +3.6V and VCC > VTH with no load, the MXD1818UR23 draws 4μA typical and 10μA maximum supply current, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This ultra-low quiescent current is measured across -40°C to +105°C and enables multi-year battery operation in portable equipment.
Is the MXD1818UR23 pin-compatible with other devices in the MXD181x family?
Yes, the MXD1818UR23 shares identical SOT23-3 pinout (RESET-VCC-GND) and footprint with all MXD1810–MXD1813/MXD1815–MXD1818 variants, including MXD1810UR46, MXD1815UR23, and MXD1813UR23. This pin compatibility is explicitly stated in the datasheet's "Pin Configurations" and "Ordering Information" sections, supporting drop-in replacement within the same threshold and output-type group.
