The MAX16025–MAX16030 are dual-/triple-/quad-voltage monitors and sequencers that are offered in a
small TQFN package. These devices offer enormous
design flexibility as they allow fixed and adjustable
thresholds to be selected through logic inputs and provide sequence timing through small external capacitors. These versatile devices are ideal for use in a wide
variety of multivoltage applications.
As the voltage at each monitored input exceeds its
respective threshold, its corresponding output goes
high after a propagation delay or a capacitor-set time
delay. When a voltage falls below its threshold, its
respective output goes low after a propagation delay.
Each detector circuit also includes its own enable input,
allowing the power-good outputs to be shut off independently. The independent output for each detector is
available with push-pull or open-drain configuration
with the open-drain version capable of supporting voltages up to 28V, thereby allowing them to interface to
shutdown and enable inputs of various DC-DC regulators. Each detector can operate independently as four
separate supervisory circuits or can be daisy-chained
to provide controlled power-supply sequencing.
The MAX16025–MAX16030 also include a reset function that deasserts only after all of the independently
monitored voltages exceed their threshold. The reset
timeout is internally fixed or can be adjusted externally.
These devices are offered in a 4mm x 4mm TQFN
package and are fully specified from -40°C to +125°C.

The MAX16025–MAX16030 are low-voltage, accurate,
dual-/triple-/quad-voltage microprocessor (µP) supervisors in a small TQFN package. These devices provide
supervisory and sequencing functions for complex multivoltage systems. The MAX16025/MAX16026 monitor
two voltages, the MAX16027/MAX16028 monitor three
voltages, and the MAX16029/MAX16030 monitor four
voltages.
The MAX16025–MAX16030 offer independent outputs
and enable functions for each monitored voltage. This
configuration allows the device to operate as four separate supervisory circuits or be daisy-chained together to
allow controlled sequencing of power supplies during
power-up initialization. When all of the monitored voltages exceed their respective thresholds, an independent reset output deasserts to allow the system
processor to operate.
These devices offer enormous flexibility as there are
nine threshold options that are selected through two
threshold-select logic inputs. Each monitor circuit also
offers an independent enable input to allow both digital
and analog control of each monitor output. A tolerance
select input allows these devices to be used in systems
requiring 5% or 10% power-supply tolerances. In addition, the time delays and reset timeout can be adjusted
using small capacitors. There is also a fixed 140ms
minimum reset timeout feature.

Applications Information
Tolerance
The MAX16025–MAX16030 feature a pin-selectable
threshold tolerance. Connect TOL to GND to select the
thresholds 5% below the nominal value. Connect TOL to
VCCto select the threshold tolerance 10% below the
nominal voltage. Do not leave TOL unconnected.
Adjustable Input
These devices offer several monitoring options with
both fixed and/or adjustable reset thresholds (see
Table 2). For the adjustable threshold inputs, the
threshold voltage (VTH) at each adjustable IN_ input is
typically 0.5V (TOL = GND) or 0.472V (TOL = VCC). To
monitor a voltage V
INTH
, connect a resistive divider network to the circuit as shown in Figure 3 and use the following equation to calculate the threshold voltage:
Choosing the proper external resistors is a balance
between accuracy and power use. The input to the voltage monitor is a high-impedance input with a small
100nA leakage current. This leakage current contributes to the overall error of the threshold voltage
where the output is asserted. This induced error is proportional to the value of the resistors used to set the
threshold. With lower value resistors, this error is
reduced, but the amount of power consumed in the
resistors increases.
The following equation is provided to help estimate the
value of the resistors based on the amount of acceptable error:
where e
A
is the fraction of the maximum acceptable
absolute resistive divider error attributable to the input
leakage current (use 0.01 for ±1%), V
INTH
is the voltage at which the output (OUT_) should assert, and ILis
the worst-case IN_ leakage current (see the
Electrical
Characteristics
). Calculate R2 as follows:
Unused Inputs
Connect any unused IN_ and EN_ inputs to VCC.
OUT_ Output
An OUT_ goes low when its respective IN_ input voltage
drops below its specified threshold or when its EN_ goes
low (see Table 1). OUT_ goes high when EN_ is high and
V
IN_
is above its threshold after a time delay. The
MAX16025/MAX16027/MAX16029 feature open-drain,
outputs while the MAX16026/MAX16028/MAX16030
have push-pull outputs. Open-drain outputs require an
external pullup resistor to any voltage from 0 to 28V.
RESET
Output
RESET asserts low when any of the monitored voltages
(IN_) falls below its respective threshold, any EN_ goes
low, or MR is asserted. RESET remains asserted for the
reset timeout period after all of the monitored voltages
exceed their respective threshold, all EN_ are high, all
OUT_ are high, and MR is deasserted. The MAX16025/
MAX16027/MAX16029 have an open-drain, active-low
reset output, while the MAX16026/MAX16028/
MAX16030 have a push-pull, active-low reset output.
Open-drain RESET requires an external pullup resistor to
any voltage from 0 to 28V.
Adjustable Reset Timeout Period
(CRESET)
All of these parts offer an internally fixed reset timeout
(140ms min) by connecting CRESET to VCC. The reset
timeout can also be adjusted by connecting a capacitor from CRESET to GND. When the voltage at CRESET
reaches 0.5V, RESET goes high. When RESET goes
high, CRESET is immediately held low.
is in Farads. To ensure timing
accuracy and proper operation, minimize leakage at
C
CRESET
.
Adjustable Delay (CDLY_)
When VINrises above VTHwith EN_ high, the internal
250nA current source begins charging an external
capacitor connected from CDLY_ to GND. When the
voltage at CDLY_ reaches 1V, OUT_ goes high. When
OUT_ goes high, CDLY_ is immediately held low.
Adjust the delay (t
DELAY
) from when VINrises above
VTH(with EN_ high) to OUT_ going high according to
the equation:
where V
TH-CDLY
is 1V, I
CH-CDLY
is 0.25µA, C
CDLY
is in
Farads, t
DELAY
is in seconds, and t
DELAY+
is the internal propagation delay of the device. To ensure timing
accuracy and proper operation, minimize leakage
at CDLY.
Manual-Reset Input (MR)
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 low. RESET remains asserted while MR
is low and during the reset timeout period (140ms fixed
or capacitor adjustable) after MR returns high. The MR
input has a 500nA internal pullup, so it can be left
unconnected, if not used. MR can be driven with TTL or
CMOS logic levels, or with open-drain/collector outputs.
Connect a normally open momentary switch from MR to
GND to create a manual-reset function. External
debounce circuitry is not required. If MR is driven from
long cables or if the device is used in a noisy environment, connect a 0.1µF capacitor from MR to GND to
provide additional noise immunity.
Pullup Resistor Values
The exact value of the pullup resistors for the opendrain outputs is not critical, but some consideration
should be made to ensure the proper logic levels
when the device is sinking current. For example, if
VCC= 2.25V and the pullup voltage is 28V, keep the
sink current less than 0.5mA as shown in the
Electrical
Characteristics
table. As a result, the pullup resistor
should be greater than 56kΩ. For a 12V pullup, the
resistor should be larger than 24kΩ. Note that the ability
to sink current is dependent on the VCCsupply voltage.
Power-Supply Bypassing
The device operates with a VCCsupply voltage from
2.2V to 28V. When VCCfalls below the UVLO threshold,
all the outputs go low and stay low until VCCfalls below
1.2V. For noisy systems or fast rising transients on VCC,
connect a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor from VCCto GND
as close to the device as possible to provide better
noise and transient immunity.
Ensuring Valid Output with VCCDown to
0V (MAX16026/MAX16028/MAX16030 Only)
When VCCfalls below 1.2V, the ability for the output to
sink current decreases. In order to ensure a valid output as VCCfalls to 0V, connect a 100kΩ resistor from
OUT/RESET to GND.
Typical Application Circuits
Figures 4 and 5 show typical applications for the
MAX16025–MAX16030. In high-power applications,
using an n-channel device reduces the loss across the
MOSFETs as it offers a lower drain-to-source on-resistance. However, an n-channel MOSFET requires a sufficient VGSvoltage to fully enhance it for a low R
DS_ON
.
The application in Figure 4 shows the MAX16027 configured in a multiple-output sequencing application.
Figure 5 shows the MAX16029 in a power-supply
sequencing application using n-channel MOSFETs.
