MAX6070AAUT18/V+T

MAX6070AAUT18/V+T is a microprocessor supervisor from Maxim’s MAX6070 family. It combines a voltage monitor with a watchdog timer to protect MCU/system operation: it detects supply voltage faults, asserts a reset to the MCU, and requires the CPU to service the watchdog to keep the reset deasserted. If the watchdog isn’t serviced in time, the device again asserts reset, preventing a hung processor from continuing. The V+T suffix indicates automotive temperature grade options; AAU parts are RoHS/packaging variants, typically in an 8-pin package.
Key points
- VDD monitoring plus watchdog timer for reliable MCU reset on power-up/down and during software faults
- Low quiescent current, suitable for battery-powered designs
- Automotive-grade option (V+T) with extended temperature range
- Usually 8-pin package; reset output polarity and timing are defined in the datasheet
- Typical usage: connect VDD to system supply, GND to ground; feed MCU activity to the watchdog input; connect reset output to MCU NRST or reset line; use MR/RESET as needed
Note: For exact thresholds, timing, pinout, and behavior, consult the latest MAX6070 datasheet.
