MAX6356RVUT-T

Overview

The MAX6356RVUT-T is a dual-supply microprocessor supervisor from the MAX6351–MAX6360 series, designed to enhance system reliability. It monitors two input supply voltages and asserts reset outputs if any voltage drops below its preset threshold. The device features an active-low debounced manual reset input and operates over an extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. It is available in 5- and 6-pin SOT23 packages.

Feature Summary

• Precision monitoring of multiple power-supply voltages with factory-set thresholds
• Active-low debounced manual-reset input compatible with TTL/CMOS logic
• Watchdog timer functionality with specified startup and timeout periods

Applications

• Microprocessor system supervision
• Multi-voltage power supply monitoring
• Embedded systems requiring hardware reset protection

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels. Confirm RoHS compliance status and check for specific lot traceability requirements. Ensure the package type matches design specifications before procurement. Review datasheet revisions for any pinout or electrical characteristic updates.

Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-supervision is required for critical system voltages. Consider the specific threshold levels needed for the monitored rails. Evaluate the watchdog timer requirements against system timing constraints. Verify that the SOT23 package fits the PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX635x family of supervisors, which offer precision monitoring for multiple supply rails. These devices replace discrete components, improving accuracy and reducing board space. The series supports various threshold combinations and includes watchdog capabilities for enhanced system robustness.

Replacement Considerations

Check for MAX6356 variants with different suffixes indicating alternative threshold voltages or packaging options. Verify compatibility with existing circuit designs when substituting similar parts from the same family.
