MAX690AEPA+

Maxim Integrated · Monitors & Reset Circuits · PDIP-8

MAX690AEPA+ from Maxim Integrated, in a PDIP-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VOUT power_out Supply output for CMOS RAM that connects to VCC through a P-channel MOSFET switch when VCC is above the reset threshold, and to the higher of VCC or VBATT when VCC is below it.
2 VCC power_in +5V supply input; the datasheet gives an operating voltage range of 1.2V to 5.5V for the MAX690AE/M and specifies VCC = 4.75V to 5.5V for the electrical characteristics of the MAX690A.
3 GND power_in Ground reference for the device.
4 PFI input Power-fail comparator input compared against an internal 1.25V reference, with an input current of ±25nA maximum, and it should be connected to GND or VCC when not used.
5 PFO output Power-fail output that goes low when PFI is less than 1.25V and otherwise stays high.
6 WDI input Watchdog input; if WDI remains high or low for 1.6s without toggling, a reset pulse is triggered, and leaving WDI floating or three-stated disables the watchdog timer.
7 RESET output Active-low reset output that pulses low for 200ms after a reset is triggered, stays low while VCC is below the 4.65V reset threshold, and remains low for 200ms after VCC rises above it.
8 VBATT power_in Backup-battery input that switches to VOUT when VCC falls below the reset threshold and VBATT is at least 20mV greater than VCC, with a maximum backup-battery voltage of 4.80V for the MAX690A; ground it when no backup battery is used.
