• Threshold Voltage Options: 2.5V, 3.0V, 3.3V, 5.0V
• Reset Timeout Period: Adjustable from 1ms to 640ms
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to +85°C

Detailed Pin Configuration

The MAX6360SYUT+T has the following pin configuration:

1. VCC: Power supply input
2. GND: Ground reference
3. MR: Manual reset input (active-low)
4. RESET: Reset output
5. TH: Threshold voltage selection input
6. CT: Capacitor connection for reset timeout adjustment

Functional Features

• Voltage Monitoring: The MAX6360SYUT+T continuously monitors the supply voltage and compares it with the selected threshold voltage.
• Reset Generation: When the supply voltage falls below the threshold voltage, the MAX6360SYUT+T asserts the reset signal, indicating a power failure or unstable voltage condition.
• Adjustable Reset Timeout: The reset signal remains asserted for a programmable timeout period, allowing sufficient time for the system to stabilize before normal operation resumes.
• Manual Reset: The MAX6360SYUT+T provides a manual reset input (MR) that allows an external signal to force a reset, overriding the voltage monitoring function.

Advantages and Disadvantages

Advantages: - Compact package size enables space-saving designs. - Wide supply voltage range allows compatibility with various systems. - Adjustable reset timeout period offers flexibility for different applications. - Manual reset input provides additional control over the reset functionality.

Disadvantages: - Limited threshold voltage options may not cover all voltage requirements. - Lack of built-in hysteresis may result in potential oscillations near the threshold voltage.

Working Principles

The MAX6360SYUT+T operates by comparing the supply voltage with the selected threshold voltage. When the supply voltage drops below the threshold voltage, the reset output is asserted, indicating a power failure or unstable voltage condition. The reset signal remains active for the programmable timeout period, allowing the system to stabilize before normal operation resumes. The manual reset input can be used to force a reset, overriding the voltage monitoring function.

Detailed Application Field Plans

The MAX6360SYUT+T is commonly used in various electronic systems where reliable voltage monitoring and reset functionality are required. Some application field plans include:

1. Microcontrollers and Microprocessors: Ensuring proper initialization and preventing data corruption in embedded systems.
2. Communication Systems: Resetting communication modules in case of power fluctuations or voltage instability.
3. Industrial Control Systems: Providing a reliable reset mechanism for critical control units.
