1.575V threshold supervisor for a single supply rail
The MAX16059ATT16+T monitors a single 1.575V threshold with an active-low, open-drain output. It is a Simple Reset/Power-On Reset type, asserting reset when the monitored voltage drops below the threshold and holding reset for an adjustable/selectable timeout after recovery. The part is rated for -40°C to 125°C operation, covering industrial, automotive under-hood, and outdoor telecom enclosures where ambient temperatures climb. The 6-TDFN (3x3 mm) package with exposed pad helps thermal transfer to the PCB ground plane, though the quiescent current is low enough that self-heating is minimal.
Adjustable timeout — set it with one capacitor
Unlike fixed-timeout supervisors, the MAX16059ATT16+T lets you select the reset timeout period with an external capacitor on the CT pin. This is useful when the downstream MCU or FPGA needs a specific power-up sequence delay, or when you want to stretch the reset pulse to cover a slow-start regulator. The timeout is adjustable/selectable per the datasheet guidelines, so you are not locked into a single window.
Active production — no LTB pressure
ROHS3 compliant. For BOM planning, this part is a safe choice for new designs and production builds without near-term obsolescence risk.
