Maxim Integrated MAX6314US44D1-T Microprocessor Reset Circuit

The MAX6314US44D1-T is a compact, highly reliable microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuit designed to maintain system integrity during power failures or unexpected events. Manufactured by Maxim Integrated, a leader in analog and mixed-signal products, this device is specifically engineered to monitor power supplies in µP and digital systems, providing a robust solution for system management.

This supervisory circuit is particularly useful in situations where a stable and dependable power supply is critical for system performance. It ensures that the µP resets to a known state during power-up, power-down, or brown-out conditions. The MAX6314US44D1-T is tailored to maintain system safety and prevent code execution errors by asserting a reset signal whenever the VCC supply voltage drops below the factory-set reset threshold level.

Key Features:

• Precision Voltage Monitoring: Factory-trimmed reset threshold suitable for 4.4V applications, ensuring accurate monitoring of VCC.
• Low Power Consumption: This device is designed for low-power operations, making it ideal for battery-powered equipment.
• Manual Reset Input: It includes a manual reset input that allows for a system reset to be initiated with an external pushbutton or logic signal.
• Reset Timeout: Provides a 140ms minimum reset timeout delay, which ensures proper system reset.
• Temperature Range: Operates over a wide temperature range, making it suitable for various environments and applications.
• Compact Package: Available in a small, surface-mount SOT-143 package, it is ideal for space-constrained applications.

The MAX6314US44D1-T is the perfect solution for systems that require reliable and automatic reset capability. Its ability to interface directly with microprocessors, combined with a low supply current and wide operating temperature range, makes it a versatile component for a broad range of applications, including computers, controllers, intelligent instruments, and portable/battery-powered products.

With its robust design and precision performance, the MAX6314US44D1-T from Maxim Integrated is an essential component for maintaining system stability and reliability.
