High-Voltage, Micropower, Single/Dual
Linear Regulators with Supervisory Functions
The MAX6791–MAX6796 ultra-low-quiescent-current,
single-/dual-output linear regulators are ideal for automotive applications. The devices offer a wide 5V to 72V
operating input range, allowing them to withstand automotive load-dump conditions while consuming only
68µA. The MAX6791–MAX6794 are dual-output regulators capable of supplying up to 150mA per output. The
MAX6795/MAX6796 offer a single output capable of
delivering up to 300mA. These devices offer standard
output-voltage options (5V, 3.3V, 2.5V, or 1.8V) and can
be adjusted to any voltage from 1.8V to 11V. The
MAX6791–MAX6794 also offer a fixed 5V output.
All devices feature a push-pull or open-drain, active-low
RESET output with a fixed output reset threshold that is
92.5%/87.5% of the regulator output OUT/OUT1. The
reset output asserts low when OUT/OUT1 drops below
the reset threshold and remains low for the fixed or
capacitor-adjustable reset timeout period after
OUT/OUT1 exceeds the reset threshold.
The MAX6791–MAX6796 provide a watchdog input that
monitors a pulse train from the microprocessor (µP) and
generates reset pulses if the watchdog input remains
high or low for a duration longer than the watchdog
timeout period. All devices are available with either a
fixed watchdog timeout period of 280ms (min) or a period adjustable with an external capacitor. The
MAX6791/MAX6792 feature a windowed watchdog
timeout period with selectable window ratio. The watchdog feature can be disabled.
The MAX6791–MAX6794 provide dual enable inputs
(ENABLE1 and ENABLE2) that control each regulator
independently. The single-output MAX6795/MAX6796
feature one enable input (ENABLE).
All devices include a hold input (HOLD) that aids the
implementation of a self-holding circuit without requiring external components. Once the regulator is
enabled, setting HOLD low forces the regulator to
remain on even if ENABLE/ENABLE1 is subsequently
set low. Releasing HOLD shuts down the regulator.
The MAX6791–MAX6796 are available in a small, thermally enhanced TQFN package. The 5mm x 5mm
package dissipates up to 2.7W, supporting continuous
regulator operation during high ambient temperatures,
high battery voltage, and high load-current conditions.
The MAX6791–MAX6796 are specified for a -40°C to
+125°C operating temperature range.

Detailed Description
The MAX6791–MAX6796 ultra-low-quiescent-current,
single-/dual-output, high-input-voltage linear regulators
operate from 5V to 72V. The MAX6791–MAX6794 feature dual regulators that deliver up to 150mA of load
current per output. One output is available with preset
output-voltage options (+1.8V, +2.5V, +3.3V, and
+5.0V) and can be adjusted to any voltage between
+1.8V to +11V using an external resistive-divider at
SET1. The other output provides a fixed 5V output voltage. The MAX6795/MAX6796 feature a single regulator
that delivers up to 300mA of current with preset outputvoltage options (+1.8V, +2.5V, +3.3V, and +5.0V) or
can be adjusted to any voltage between +1.8V to +11V.
All devices include an integrated µP reset circuit with a
fixed/adjustable reset and watchdog timeout period.
The MAX6791–MAX6796 monitor OUT/OUT1 and
assert a reset output when the output falls below the
reset threshold.
12
Regulators
The single and dual regulators accept an input voltage
from 5V to 72V. The MAX6791–MAX6796 offer fixed
preset output voltages of +1.8V, +2.5V, +3.3V, and
+5V, or an adjustable output voltage of +1.8V to +11V,
selected using an external resistive-divider network
connected between OUT1/OUT, SET1/SET, and GND
(see Figure 1). In addition to an adjustable output, the
MAX6791–MAX6794 feature a fixed 5V output voltage.
Reset Output
The reset output is typically connected to the reset
input of a µP. A µP’s reset input starts or restarts the µP
in a known state. The MAX6791–MAX6796 supervisory
circuits provide the reset logic output to prevent codeexecution errors during power-up, power-down, and
brownout conditions (see the Typical Application
Circuit). RESET changes from high to low whenever the
monitored output voltage drops below the reset threshold voltage or the watchdog timeout expires. Once the
monitored voltage exceeds its respective reset threshold voltage, RESET remains low for the reset timeout
period, then goes high.

High-Voltage, Micropower, Single/Dual Linear
Regulators with Supervisory Functions
Watchdog Timer
The MAX6791–MAX6796 include a watchdog timer
that asserts RESET if the watchdog input (WDI) does
not toggle high to low or low to high within the watchdog timeout period t WD (280ms min or externally
adjustable). RESET remains low for the fixed or useradjustable reset timeout period, tRP. If the watchdog is
not updated for lengthy periods of time, the reset output appears as a pulse train, asserted for t RP ,
deasserted for tWD, until WDI is toggled again. Once
RESET asserts, it stays low for the entire reset timeout
period ignoring any WDI transitions that may occur. To
prevent the watchdog from asserting RESET, toggle
WDI with a valid rising or falling edge before tWD from
the last edge. The watchdog counter clears when WDI
toggles prior to tWD from the last edge or when RESET
asserts. The watchdog resumes counting after RESET
deasserts.
The MAX6791/MAX6792 have a windowed watchdog
timer that asserts RESET for the adjusted reset timeout
period when the watchdog recognizes a fast watchdog
fault (tWDI < tWD1), or a slow watchdog fault (tWDI >
tWD2). The reset timeout period is adjusted independently of the watchdog timeout period.
Enable and Hold Inputs
The MAX6791–MAX6796 support two logic inputs,
ENABLE1/ENABLE and HOLD, making these devices
suitable for automotive applications. For example, when
the ignition key signal drives ENABLE1/ENABLE high,
the regulator turns on and remains on even if
ENABLE1/ENABLE goes low, as long as HOLD is forced
low and stays low after initial regulator power-up. In this
state, releasing HOLD turns the regulator output
(OUT/OUT1) off. This feature makes it possible to implement a self-holding circuit without external components.
Forcing ENABLE1/ENABLE low and HOLD high or
unconnected places the MAX6791–MAX6796 into shutdown mode in which the MAX6791–MAX6796 draw less
than 27µA of supply current.
Table 3 shows the state of the regulator output with
respect to the voltage level at ENABLE1/ENABLE and
HOLD. Connect HOLD to OUT1/OUT or leave it unconnected to allow the ENABLE1/ENABLE input to act as a
standard ON/OFF switch for the regulator output
(OUT/OUT1).
Power-Fail Comparator
PFI is the noninverting input to a comparator. If PFI is
less than VPFI (1.231V), PFO goes low. Common uses
for the power-fail comparator include monitoring the
16
preregulated input of the power supply (such as a battery) or providing an early power-fail warning so software can conduct an orderly system shutdown. Set the
power-fail threshold with a resistive-divider, as shown in
Figure 5. The typical comparator delay is 35µs from PFI
to PFO. Connect PFI to GND or IN if unused.
Reverse-Battery Protection Circuitry
The MAX6791–MAX6796 include an overvoltage protection circuit that is capable of driving a p-channel
MOSFET to protect against reverse-battery conditions.
This MOSFET eliminates the need for external diodes,
thus minimizing the input voltage drop. See the Typical
Application Circuit. The low p-channel MOSFET onresistance of 30mΩ or less yields a forward-voltage
drop of only a few millivolts versus hundreds of millivolts for a diode, thus improving efficiency in batteryoperated devices. Connecting a positive battery
voltage to the drain of Q1 (see the Typical Application
Circuit) forward biases its body diode. When the source
voltage exceeds Q1’s threshold voltage, Q1 turns on.
Once the FET is on, the battery is fully connected to the
system and can deliver power to the device and the
load. An incorrectly inserted battery reverse-biases the
FET’s body diode. The gate remains at the ground
potential. The FET remains off and disconnects the
reversed battery from the system. The internal zener
diode and resistor combination at GATEP prevent damage to the p-channel MOSFET during an overvoltage
condition. See the Functional Diagrams.
Thermal Protection
When the junction temperature exceeds TJ = +165°C,
the internal protection circuit turns off the internal pass
transistor and allows the IC to cool. The thermal sensor
turns the pass transistor on again after the junction temperature drops to +145°C, resulting in a cycled output
during continuous thermal-overload conditions.
Thermal protection protects the MAX6791–MAX6796 in
the event of fault conditions. For continuous operation,
do not exceed the absolute maximum junction temperature rating of +150°C.
Proper Soldering of Package Heatsink
The MAX6791–MAX6796 package features an exposed
thermal pad on its underside that should be used as a
heatsink. This pad lowers the package’s thermal resistance by providing a direct heat-conduction path from
the die to the PC board. Connect the exposed pad and
GND to the system ground using a large pad or ground
plane, or multiple vias to the ground plane layer.
______________________________________________________________________________________
High-Voltage, Micropower, Single/Dual Linear
Regulators with Supervisory Functions
Output Voltage Selection
The MAX6791–MAX6796 feature dual-mode operation:
these devices operate in either a preset voltage mode
or an adjustable mode. In preset voltage mode, internal
trimmed feedback resistors set the internal linear regulator to +1.8V, +2.5V, +3.3V, or +5V (see the Selector
Guide). Select preset voltage mode by connecting SET1
(MAX6791–MAX6794)/SET(MAX6795/MAX6796) to
GND. In adjustable mode, select an output voltage
between +1.8V and +11V using two external resistors
connected as a voltage-divider to SET1/SET (see Figure
1). Set the output voltage using the following equation:
R1 ⎞
⎛
VOUT = VSET ⎜1 +
⎟
⎝
R2 ⎠
where VSET = 1.2315V and R1, R2 ≤ 200kΩ.
Selecting Reset Timeout Period
The reset timeout period is adjustable to accommodate
a variety of µP applications. Adjust the reset timeout
period by connecting a capacitor between CSRT and
GND. Use the following formula to set the reset timeout
period:
V⎞
⎛
tRP = CCSRT ⎜1.218 × 106 ⎟
⎝
A⎠
where tRP is in seconds and CCSRT is in Farads.
Connect CSRT to OUT1 (MAX6791–MAX6794) or to
OUT (MAX6795/MAX6796) to select an internally fixed
timeout period. Connect CSRT to GND to force RESET
low. C CSRT must be a low-leakage (< 10nA) type
capacitor. Ceramic capacitors are recommended; do
not use capacitors lower than 100pF to avoid the influence of parasitic capacitances.
Available Output-Current Calculation
The MAX6791–MAX6794 provide up to 150mA per output, and the MAX6795/MAX6796 provide up to 300mA
of load current. Since the input voltage can be as high
as +72V, package power dissipation limits the amount
of output current available for a given input/output voltage and ambient temperature. Figure 2 shows the maximum power-dissipation curve for the MAX6791–
MAX6796. The graph assumes that the exposed metal
pad of the device package is soldered to a solid 1in2
section of PC board copper. Use Figure 2 to determine
the allowable package dissipation for a given ambient
temperature. Alternately, use the following formula to
calculate the allowable package dissipation:
VIN
IN
OUT1/OUT
R1
MAX6791–MAX6796
SET1/SET

PDMAX = Maximum Power Dissipation
After determining the allowable package dissipation,
calculate the maximum output current using the following formula:
PD = Power Dissipation
PD < PDMAX where PD = [(IN - OUT1) x IOUT1] + [(IN OUT2) x IOUT2], for MAX6791–MAX6794.
Also, IOUT1 should be ≤ 150mA and IOUT2 should be
≤ 150mA in any case.
PD < PD MAX where PD = [(IN - OUT) x I OUT ], for
MAX6795/MAX6796.
Also, IOUT should be ≤ 300mA in any case.

Selecting Watchdog Timeout Period
The watchdog timeout period is adjustable to accommodate a variety of µP applications. With this feature, the
watchdog timeout can be optimized for software execution. The programmer can determine how often the
watchdog timer should be serviced. Adjust the watchdog timeout period (tWD) by connecting a capacitor
between CSWT and GND. For normal-mode operation,
calculate the watchdog timeout capacitor as follows:
V⎞
⎛
t WD2 = CCSWT ⎜155 × 106
⎟
⎝
A⎠
where tWD is in seconds and CCSWT is in Farads.
To select the internally fixed watchdog timeout period
for the MAX6791–MAX6794, connect CSWT to OUT1.
To select the internally fixed watchdog timeout period
for the MAX6795/MAX6796, connect CSWT to OUT.
CCSWT must be a low-leakage (< 10nA) type capacitor.
Ceramic capacitors are recommended; do not use
capacitors lower than 100pF to avoid the influence of
parasitic capacitances.
The MAX6791/MAX6792 have a windowed watchdog
timer that asserts RESET for tRP when the watchdog
recognizes a fast watchdog fault (time between transitions < tWD1), or a slow watchdog fault (time between
transitions > tWD2). The reset timeout period is adjusted independently of the watchdog timeout period. The
slow watchdog period, tWD2, is calculated as follows:
V⎞
⎛
t WD2 = CCSWT ⎜155 × 106
⎟
⎝
A⎠
where tWD2 is in seconds and CCSWT is in Farads.
tWD0
RESET:
MIN
tWD1
MAX
GUARANTEED
TO ASSERT
The fast watchdog period, tWD1, is selectable as a ratio
from the slow watchdog fault period (tWD2). Select the
fast watchdog period by connecting WDS0 and WDS1 to
OUT/OUT1 or GND according to Table 4, which illustrates the settings for the 8, 16, and 64 window ratios
(t WD2/t WD1). For example, if CCSWT is 2000pF, and
WDS0 and WDS1 are low, then tWD2 is 318ms (typ) and
tWD1 is 40ms (typ). RESET asserts if the watchdog input
has two edges too close to each other (faster than tWD1);
or has edges that are too far apart (slower than tWD2).
All WDI inputs are ignored while RESET is asserted. The
watchdog timer begins to count after RESET is
deasserted. If the time difference between two transitions on WDI is shorter than tWD1 or longer than tWD2,
RESET is forced to assert low for the reset timeout period. If the time difference between two transitions on WDI
is between tWD1 (min) and tWD1 (max) or tWD2 (min)
and tWD2 (max), RESET is not guaranteed to assert or
deassert; see Figure 3. To guarantee that the window
watchdog does not assert RESET, strobe WDI between
t WD1 (max) and t WD2 (min). The watchdog timer is
cleared when RESET is asserted. Disable the watchdog
timer by connecting WDS0 high and WDS1 low.
There are several options available to disable the
watchdog timer (for system development or test purposes or when the µP is in a low-power sleep mode).
One way to disable the watchdog timer is to drive
WD-DIS low for the MAX6793–MAX6796 and drive
WDS0 high and WDS1 low for the MAX6791/MAX6792.
This prevents the capacitor from ramping up. Finally,
reducing the OUT/OUT1 regulator current below the
specified regulator current watchdog-disable threshold
(3mA min) also disables the watchdog timer. The

Capacitor Selection and Regulator
Stability
For stable operation over the full temperature range
and with load currents up to 150mA, use a 10µF (min)
output capacitor with an ESR < 0.5Ω. To reduce noise
and improve load-transient response and power-supply
rejection, use larger output-capacitor values. Some
ceramic dielectrics exhibit large capacitance and ESR
variation with temperature. For these types of capacitors (such as Z5U and Y5V), much higher-value capacitors are required to maintain stability over the
temperaure range. With X7R dielectrics, a 10µF capacitor should be sufficient at all operating temperatures.
To improve power-supply rejection and transient
response, increase the capacitor between IN and GND.

VIN
Ensuring a Valid RESET Output Down to
VIN = 0V
When VIN falls below 1V, RESET current-sinking capabilities decline drastically. High-impedance CMOSlogic inputs connected to RESET can drift to
undetermined voltages. This presents no problems in
most applications, since most µPs and other circuitry
do not operate with a supply voltage below 1V. In those
applications where RESET must be valid down to 0V,
adding a pulldown resistor between RESET and GND
sinks any stray leakage currents, holding RESET low
(Figure 4). The value of the pulldown resistor is not critical; 100kΩ is large enough not to load RESET and
small enough to pull RESET to ground. Open-drain
RESET versions are not recommended for applications
requiring valid logic for VIN down to 0V.
Adding Hysteresis to PFI
The power-fail comparator has a typical input hysteresis of 0.5% (of VTH). This is sufficient for most applications where a power-supply line is being monitored
through an external resistive-divider (Figure 5). Figure 6
shows how to add hysteresis to the power-fail comparator. Select the ratio of R5 and R6 so PFI sees 1.23V
when VIN falls to the desired trip point (VTRIP). Since
PFO is an open-drain output, resistors R7 and R8 add
hysteresis. R7 typically is an order of magnitude
greater than R5 or R6. The current through R5 and R6
should be at least 10µA to ensure that the 100nA (max)
PFI input current does not shift the trip point. R7 should be
larger than 50kΩ to prevent it from loading down the PFO.
MAX6791–MAX6796
watchdog re-enables immediately when any of these
conditions are removed (as long as the RESET is not
asserted). Note that the output current threshold limit
includes hysteresis so that output current must exceed
13.8mA (max) to reenable the watchdog timer.

Use the following formulas to determine the high/low
threshold levels and the hysteresis:
VL-H = VPFI x (1 + R5 / R6 +R5 / R7)
VH-L = VPFI x (1 + R5 / R6 ) + (VPFI - VTERM) [R5 / (R7 +
R8)]
VHYS = VPFI x (R5 / R7 ) - (VPFI - VTERM) [R5 / (R7 +
R8)]
where VL-H is the threshold level for the monitored voltage rising and VH-L is the threshold level for the monitored voltage falling.
