Single-/Dual-/Triple-Voltage µP Supervisory
Circuits with Independent Watchdog Output
General Description
Features
♦ V 1 (Primary Supply) Reset Threshold Voltages
The MAX6730A–MAX6735A single-/dual-/triple-voltage
microprocessor (µP) supervisors feature a watchdog
timer and manual reset capability. The MAX6730A–
MAX6735A offer factory-set reset thresholds for moni-
toring voltages from +0.9V to +5V and an adjustable
reset input for monitoring voltages down to +0.63V. The
combination of these features significantly improves
system reliability and accuracy when compared to sep-
arate ICs or discrete components.

Voltages from +0.79V to +3.08V
♦ Adjustable RSTIN Threshold for Monitoring Voltages

♦ Six Reset Timeout Options
♦ Watchdog Timer with Independent Watchdog Output
35s (min) Initial Watchdog Startup Period
The active-low reset output asserts and remains asserted
for the reset timeout period after all the monitored volt-
ages exceed their respective thresholds. Multiple factory-
set reset threshold combinations reduce the number of
external components required. The MAX6730A/
MAX6731A monitor a single fixed voltage, the MAX6732A/
MAX6733A monitor two fixed voltages, and the
MAX6734A/MAX6735A monitor two fixed voltages and one
adjustable voltage. All devices are offered with six mini-
mum reset timeout periods ranging from 1.1ms to 1120ms.

The MAX6730A–MAX6735A feature a watchdog timer
with an independent watchdog output. The watchdog
timer prevents system lockup during code execution
errors. A watchdog startup delay of 54s after reset
asserts allows system initialization during power-up.
The watchdog operates in normal mode with a 1.68s
delay after initialization. The MAX6730A/MAX6732A/
MAX6734A provide an active-low, open-drain watch-
dog output. The MAX6731A/MAX6733A/MAX6735A
provide an active-low, push-pull watchdog output.
♦ Low Supply Current: 14µA (typ) at +3.6V
♦ Small 6-Pin and 8-Pin SOT23 Packages

Other features include a manual reset input (MAX6730A/
MAX6731A/MAX6734A/MAX6735A) and push-pull reset
output (MAX6731A/MAX6733A/MAX6735A) or open-
drain reset output (MAX6730A/MAX6732A/MAX6734A).
The MAX6730A–MAX6733A are offered in a tiny 6-pin
SOT23 package. The MAX6734A/MAX6735A are offered
in an 8-pin, space-saving SOT23 package. All devices
are fully specified over the extended -40°C to +125°C
temperature range.

standard versions only (see the Standard Versions table).
Standard versions have an order increment requirement of 2500
pieces. Nonstandard versions have an order increment require-
ment of 10,000 pieces. Contact factory for availability.
Devices are available in both leaded and lead-free packaging.
Specify lead-free by replacing “T” with “+T” when ordering.
