Specifications

• Supply Voltage Range: 1.6V to 5.5V
• Threshold Voltage Options: 2.5V, 3.0V, 3.3V, 4.38V, 4.63V, 4.75V
• Reset Timeout Period: Adjustable from 1ms to 640ms
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to +85°C

Detailed Pin Configuration

The MAX6360TZUT+T has a total of six pins arranged as follows:

1. GND: Ground connection
2. MR: Manual Reset input pin
3. RESET: Active-low reset output pin
4. VCC: Positive power supply input
5. TH: Threshold voltage selection pin
6. TR: Reset timeout period selection pin

Functional Features

• Accurate Voltage Monitoring: The MAX6360TZUT+T continuously monitors the power supply voltage and compares it with the selected threshold voltage.
• Reset Generation: When the monitored voltage falls below the threshold voltage, the MAX6360TZUT+T generates an active-low reset signal.
• Adjustable Reset Timeout: The reset timeout period can be adjusted using an external capacitor connected to the TR pin.
• Manual Reset Input: The MR pin allows for manual resetting of the device.

Advantages and Disadvantages

Advantages: - Low-power consumption - Precision voltage monitoring - Adjustable reset timeout period - Manual reset capability

Disadvantages: - Limited threshold voltage options - Single-channel monitoring

Working Principles

The MAX6360TZUT+T operates by continuously comparing the power supply voltage with the selected threshold voltage. When the monitored voltage falls below the threshold, the reset output is activated. The reset signal remains active until the voltage rises above the threshold or a timeout period elapses.

Detailed Application Field Plans

The MAX6360TZUT+T finds applications in various fields, including:

1. Microcontrollers: Provides reliable reset signals to microcontrollers during power-up and brownout conditions.
2. Industrial Control Systems: Ensures proper operation of control systems by monitoring power supply voltages and generating resets when necessary.
3. Battery-Powered Devices: Helps prevent data corruption and ensures safe shutdown during low battery conditions.
4. Automotive Electronics: Monitors critical voltages in automotive systems and triggers resets to maintain system integrity.

Detailed and Complete Alternative Models

1. MAX6381XR26D3+: Similar functionality with a different package (SOT23-5) and fixed 2.6V threshold voltage.
2. MAX6316LUK46CY-T: Offers adjustable threshold voltage and reset timeout period in a SOT23-5 package.
3. MAX811SEUS-T: Provides a wider supply voltage range and adjustable reset timeout in a SOT23-3 package.
