Product details

What the 4.65V threshold means for a 5V rail

The MAX791ESE: You need an external pull-up resistor to Vcc or the processor's reset rail.

16-SOIC package and rework profile

Pin 1 is clearly marked with a dot on the top moulding, and the package outline is symmetric enough that the orientation is unambiguous under a loupe. No hidden pads, no centre pad — the board layout is straightforward.

Active production, legacy RoHS status

Note the RoHS status is non-compliant — this part carries a tin-lead (SnPb) finish, not pure tin. That is typical for legacy industrial parts and means it is exempt from RoHS restrictions for certain applications, but a RoHS-compliant BOM will need an alternative or an exemption letter.

Frequently asked questions

What is the reset threshold and timeout on MAX791ESE?

The voltage threshold is 4.65V for a nominal 5V rail, and the reset timeout after the rail recovers is a minimum of 140ms.

What package is MAX791ESE in and is it reworkable?

It comes in a 16-SOIC (0.154-inch body, 3.90mm width) surface-mount package. The 1.27mm pitch gull-wing leads are easy to hand-solder or hot-air rework with standard equipment.
