µP Reset Circuits with Manual Reset
The MAX6335/MAX6336/MAX6337 microprocessor (µP)
supervisory circuits monitor the power supplies in 1.8V
to 3.3V µP and digital systems. They increase circuit reliability and reduce cost by eliminating external components and adjustments. They also feature a debounced
manual-reset input.
These devices perform a single function: they assert a
reset signal whenever the VCC supply voltage declines
below a preset threshold or whenever manual reset is
asserted. Reset remains asserted for a preset timeout
period after VCC has risen above the reset threshold or
after manual reset is deasserted. The only difference
among the three devices is their output. The MAX6336
(push/pull) and MAX6337 (open-drain) have an activelow RESET output, while the MAX6335 (push/pull) has
an active-high RESET output. The MAX6335/MAX6336
are guaranteed to be in the correct state for VCC down
to 0.7V. The MAX6337 is guaranteed to be in the correct state for VCC down to 1.0V.
The reset comparator in these ICs is designed to ignore
fast transients on VCC. Reset thresholds are factorytrimmable between 1.6V and 2.5V, in approximately
100mV increments. There are 15 standard versions
available (2500 piece minimum-order quantity); contact
the factory for availability of nonstandard versions
(10,000 piece minimum-order quantity). For space-critical applications, the MAX6335/MAX6336/MAX6337
come packaged in a 4-pin SOT143.

Active-Low Reset Output. RESET remains low while VCC is below the reset
threshold, or MR is asserted and for a reset timeout period (tRP) after VCC
rises above the reset threshold, or MR is deasserted. RESET on the
MAX6337 is open-drain.
Active-High Reset Output. RESET remains high while VCC is below the
reset threshold, or MR is asserted and for a reset timeout period (tRP) after
VCC rises above the reset threshold, or MR is deasserted. RESET also
asserts when MR is low.

Applications Information
Manual-Reset Inputs
Many µP-based products require manual-reset capability, allowing the operator, a test technician, or external
logic circuitry to initiate a reset. A logic low on MR
asserts reset. Reset remains asserted while MR is low,
and for the reset active timeout period after MR returns
high. MR has an internal 20kΩ pull-up resistor, so it can
be left unconnected if not used. Connect a normally
open momentary switch from MR to GND to create a
manual-reset function; external debounce circuitry is
not required.
Interfacing to µPs with
Bidirectional Reset Pins
Since the RESET output on the MAX6337 is open-drain,
this device interfaces easily with µPs that have bidirectional reset pins, such as the Motorola 68HC11.
Connecting the µP supervisor’s RESET output directly
to the microcontroller’s (µC’s) RESET pin with a single
pull-up resistor allows either device to assert reset
(Figure 1).
signal. As the amplitude of the transient increases, the
maximum allowable pulse width decreases.
Ensuring a Valid Reset Output
down to VCC = 0
When VCC falls below 1V and approaches the minimum
operating voltage of 0.7V, push/pull-structured reset
sinking (or sourcing) capabilities decrease drastically.
High-impedance CMOS-logic inputs connected to the
RESET pin can drift to indeterminate voltages. This
does not present a problem in most cases, since most
µPs and circuitry do not operate at VCC below 1V. For
the MAX6336, where RESET must be valid down to 0,
adding a pull-down resistor between RESET and GND
removes stray leakage currents, holding RESET low

Negative-Going VCC Transients
In addition to issuing a reset to the µP during power-up,
power-down, and brownout conditions, these devices
are relatively immune to short-duration, negative-going
V CC transients (glitches). The Typical Operating
Characteristics show the Maximum Transient Duration

VCC transient may typically have without issuing a reset

Figure 2. Ensuring Reset Valid down to VCC = 0
(Figure 2a). The pull-down resistor value is not critical;
100kΩ is large enough not to load RESET, and small
enough to pull it low. For the MAX6335, where RESET
must be valid to VCC = 0, a 100kΩ pull-up resistor
between RESET and VCC will hold RESET high when
VCC falls below 0.7V (Figure 2b).
Since the MAX6337 has an open-drain, active-low output, it typically uses a pull-up resistor. With this device,
RESET will most likely not maintain an active condition,
but will drift to a non-active level due to the pull-up
resistor and the reduced sinking capability of the opendrain device. Therefore, this device is not recommended for applications where the RESET pin is required to
be valid down to VCC = 0.
