µP Reset Circuits with Capacitor-Adjustable
Reset/Watchdog Timeout Delay
General Description
The MAX6746–MAX6753 low-power microprocessor
(µP) supervisory circuits monitor single/dual system
supply voltages from 1.575V to 5V and provide maxi-
mum adjustability for reset and watchdog functions.
These devices assert a reset signal whenever the V
CC
supply voltage or RESET IN falls below its reset thresh-
old or when manual reset is pulled low. The reset output
remains asserted for the reset timeout period after V
CC
and RESET IN rise above the reset threshold. The reset
function features immunity to power-supply transients.
The MAX6746–MAX6753 have ±2% factory-trimmed
reset threshold voltages in approximately 100mV incre-
ments from 1.575V to 5.0V and/or adjustable reset
threshold voltages using external resistors.
The reset and watchdog delays are adjustable with
external capacitors. The MAX6746–MAX6751 contain a
watchdog select input that extends the watchdog time-
out period by 128x. The MAX6752/MAX6753 contain a
window watchdog timer that looks for activity outside an
expected window of operation.
The MAX6746–MAX6753 are available with a push-pull
or open-drain active-low
RESET
output. The MAX6746–
MAX6753 are available in an 8-pin SOT23 package and
are fully specified over the automotive temperature
range (-40°C to +125°C).

Note:
“_ _” represents the two number suffix needed when
ordering the reset threshold voltage value for the
MAX6746/MAX6747 and MAX6750–MAX6753. The reset
threshold voltages are available in approximately 100mV incre-
ments. Table 2 contains the suffix and reset factory-trimmed
voltages. All devices are available in tape-and-reel only. There
is a 2500-piece minimum order increment for standard ver-
sions (see Table 3). Sample stock is typically held on standard
versions only. Nonstandard versions require a minimum order
increment of 10,000 pieces. Contact factory for availability.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

NAME
FUNCTION
Manual Reset Input. Pull
MR
low to manually reset the device. Reset
remains asserted for the reset timeout period after
MR
is released.
Reset Input. High-impedance input to the adjustable reset comparator.
Connect RESET IN to the center point of an external resistor-divider to
set the threshold of the externally monitored voltage.
Logic Input. SET0 selects watchdog window ratio or disables the
watchdog timer. See Table 1.
Watchdog Timeout Input.
MAX6746–MAX6751: Connect a capacitor between SWT and ground to
set the basic watchdog timeout period (t
WD
). Determine the period by
the formula t
WD
= 5.06 x 10
6
x C
SWT
with t

SWT
in
Farads. Extend the basic watchdog timeout period by using the WDS
input. Connect SWT to ground to disable the watchdog timer function.

MAX6752/MAX6753: Connect a capacitor between SWT and ground to

9
x C
SWT
with t

by pinstrapping SET0 and SET1 (Connect SET0 high and SET1 low to
disable the watchdog timer function.) See Table 1.
