MAX6360TWUT-T

Overview

The MAX6360TWUT-T is a dual-voltage microprocessor supervisory circuit manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It monitors two independent supply voltages and asserts reset outputs when any input drops below its preset threshold. The device features active-low, push-pull reset outputs referenced to VCC1 and VCC2 respectively. Key electrical parameters include a maximum operating supply voltage of 5.5V, an operating supply current of 20µA, and a reset delay time of 180ms. It includes a debounced manual reset input and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Dual-voltage monitoring with independent thresholds for system reliability
• Active-low push-pull reset outputs referenced to respective supply rails
• Debounced manual reset input compatible with TTL/CMOS logic
• Low power consumption suitable for battery-operated applications

Applications

• Microprocessor (µP) system supervision
• Portable electronic devices requiring low-power monitoring
• Industrial control systems with multiple voltage domains
• Communication equipment ensuring stable power sequencing

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix 'T' or '+T' against the manufacturer's official datasheet, as packaging variations exist. Confirm availability status directly with authorized distributors, as some listings indicate limited stock or discontinuation risks. Ensure the SOT-23-6 package matches your PCB footprint requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-supervision is required without watchdog functionality. Compare against MAX6358 if watchdog timer support is needed. Verify that the push-pull output type meets drive requirements compared to open-drain alternatives like the MAX6358. Ensure the 180ms reset timeout aligns with system startup timing constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX635x series of dual/triple-voltage µP supervisors. It shares architectural similarities with the MAX6356 and MAX6359 but differs in output configuration and specific threshold options. The series is designed to replace discrete supervisor components, improving accuracy and reducing board space in multi-rail power systems.

Replacement Considerations

MAX6358MTUT+T offers similar dual-monitoring but includes a watchdog timer and uses open-drain outputs. MAX6356 provides comparable dual monitoring with push-pull outputs but may have different threshold configurations. Verify pin compatibility and output drive strength when substituting.
