General Description
The MAX6457–MAX6460 high supply voltage, low-power
voltage monitors operate over a 4V to 28V supply voltage
range. Each device includes a precision bandgap reference,
one or two low-offset voltage comparators, internal threshold
hysteresis, power-good or reset timeout options, and one
or two high-voltage open-drain outputs. Two external
resistors (three for window detection) set the trip threshold
voltages.
The MAX6457 is a single voltage monitor for undervoltage
or overvoltage detection. A logic-based clear input either
latches the output for overvoltage applications or allows
the device to operate in transparent mode. The MAX6458
includes two comparators (one overvoltage and one
undervoltage) for window detection and a single output
to indicate if the monitored input is within an adjustable
voltage window. The MAX6459 includes dual overvoltage/
undervoltage comparators with two independent compar-
ator outputs. Use the MAX6459 as a window comparator
with separate undervoltage and overvoltage outputs or as
two independent, single voltage monitors. The MAX6460
includes a single comparator and an internal reference,
and can also accept an external reference. The inverting
and noninverting inputs of the comparator are externally
accessible to support positive or negative voltage moni-
tors and to configure the device for active-high or active-
low output logic.
The MAX6457/MAX6458 offer fixed timing options as
a voltage detector with a 50μs typical delay or as a
reset circuit with a 90ms minimum reset timeout delay.
The monitored input must be above the adjusted trip
threshold (or within the adjusted voltage window for the
MAX6458) for the selected timeout period before the
output changes state. The MAX6459/MAX6460 offer only
a fixed 50μs timeout period. Internal threshold hysteresis
options (0.5%, 5%, and 8.3% for the MAX6457/MAX6458/
MAX6459, and 0.5% for the MAX6460) reduce output
chatter in noise-sensitive applications. Each device is
available in a small SOT23 package and specified over
the extended temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Functional Diagrams
Detailed Description
Each of the MAX6457–MAX6460 high-voltage (4V to
28V), low-power voltage monitors include a precision
bandgap reference, one or two low-offset-voltage com-
parators, internal threshold hysteresis, internal timeout
period, and one or two high-voltage open-drain outputs.
Programming the Trip Voltage (VTRIP)
Two external resistors set the trip voltage, VTRIP (Figure 5).
VTRIP is the point at which the applied voltage (typically
VCC) toggles OUT. The MAX6457/MAX6458/MAX6459/
MAX6460’s high input impedance allows large-value
resistors without compromising trip-voltage accuracy.
To minimize current consumption, select a value for R2
between 10kΩ and 1MΩ, then calculate R1 as follows:

where VREF = reference output voltage (2.25V, typ),
VREFD = divided reference, VTRIP = desired trip threshold
in (in volts).
For an active-low power-good output, connect the
resistor divider R1 and R2 to the inverting input and
the reference-divider network to the noninverting input.
Alternatively, connect an external reference less than
1.4V to either input.
where VTRIP = desired trip voltage (in volts), VTH =
threshold trip voltage (VTH+ for overvoltage detection or
VTH- for undervoltage detection).
Use the MAX6460 voltage reference (REF) to set the
trip threshold by connecting IN+ or IN- through a voltage
divider (within the inputs common-mode voltage range)
to REF. Do not connect REF directly to IN+ or IN- since
this violates the input common-mode voltage range. Small
leakage currents into the comparators inputs allows use
of large value resistors to prevent loading the reference
and affecting its accuracy. Figure 5b shows an active-high
power-good output. Use the following equation to deter-
mine the resistor values when connecting REF to IN-:

MAX6457–MAX6460 High-Voltage, Low-Current Voltage Monitors
in SOT Packages
Hysteresis
Hysteresis adds noise immunity to the voltage monitors
and prevents oscillation due to repeated triggering when
VIN is near the threshold trip voltage. The hysteresis in a
comparator creates two trip points: one for the rising input
voltage (VTH+) and one for the falling input voltage (VTH-).
These thresholds are shown in Figure 6.
The internal hysteresis options of the MAX6457/MAX6458/
MAX6459 are designed to eliminate the need for adding
an external hysteresis circuit.
Timeout Period
The timeout period (tTP) for the MAX6457 is the time from
when the input (IN+) crosses the rising input threshold
(VTH+) to when the output goes high (see Figures 6 and
7). For the MAX6458, the monitored voltage must be in
the “window” before the timeout starts. The MAX6459
and MAX6460 do not offer the extended timeout option
(150ms). The extended timeout period is suitable for over-
voltage protection applications requiring transient immu-
nity to avoid false output assertion due to noise spikes.
Latched-Output Operation
The MAX6457 features a digital latch input (CLEAR) to
latch any overvoltage event. If the voltage on IN+ (VIN+)
is below the internal threshold (VTH-), or if VCC is below
4V, OUT remains low regardless of the state of CLEAR.
Drive CLEAR high to latch OUT high when VIN+ exceeds
VTH+. When CLEAR is high, OUT does not deassert if
VIN+ drops back below VIN-. Toggle CLEAR to deassert
OUT. Drive CLEAR low to make the latch transparent
(Figure 7). CLEAR must be low when powering up the
MAX6457. To initiate self-clear at power-up, add a 100kΩ
pullup resistor from CLEAR to VCC and a 1μF capacitor
from CLEAR to GND to hold CLEAR low. Connect CLEAR
to GND when not used. See Figure 9.

Applications Information
Undervoltage Lockout
Figure 8 shows the typical application circuit for detect-
ing an undervoltage event of a 5-cell Li+ battery stack.
Connect OUT of the MAX6457/MAX6458/MAX6460
(OUTA of the MAX6459) to the shutdown input of the
DCDC converter to cut off power to the load in case of an
undervoltage event. Select R1 and R2 to set the trip volt-
age (see the Programming the Trip Voltage (VTRIP) sec-
tion). When the voltage of the battery stack decreases so
that VIN+ drops below VTH- of the MAX6457–MAX6460,
then OUT (OUTA) goes low and disables the power sup-
ply to the load. When the battery charger restores the volt-
age of the 5-cell stack so that VIN+ > VTH+, OUT (OUTA)
goes high and the power supply resumes driving the load.
Overvoltage Shutdown
The MAX6457–MAX6460 are ideal for overvoltage shut-
down applications. Figure 9 shows a typical circuit for
this application using a pass P-channel MOSFET. The
MAX6457–MAX6460 are powered directly from the sys-
tem voltage supply. Select R1 and R2 to set the trip
voltage (see the Programming the Trip Voltage (VTRIP)
section). When the supply voltage remains below the
selected threshold, a low logic level on OUT (OUTB for
MAX6459) turns on the p-channel MOSFET. In the case
of an overvoltage event, OUT (OUTB) asserts high, turns
off the MOSFET, and shuts down the power to the load.
Figure 10 shows a similar application using a fuse and
a silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR). An overvoltage event
turns on the SCR and shorts the supply to ground. The
surge of current through the short circuit blows the fuse
and terminates the current to the load. Select R3 so that
the gate of the SCR is properly biased when OUT (OUTB)
goes high impedance.
Window Detection
The MAX6458/MAX6459 include undervoltage and over-
voltage comparators for window detection (Figures 2 and 3).
The circuit in Figure 11 shows the typical configuration
for this application. For the MAX6458, OUT asserts high
when VCC is within the selected “window.” When VCC
falls below the lower limit of the window (VTRIPLOW) or
exceeds the upper limit (VTRIPHIGH), OUT asserts low.
The MAX6459 features two independent open-drain
outputs: OUTA (for undervoltage events) and OUTB (for
overvoltage events). When VCC is within the selected
window, OUTA and OUTB assert high. When VCC falls
below VTRIPLOW, OUTA asserts low while OUTB remains

where RTOTAL = R1 + R2 + R3.
Use the following steps to determine the values for R1,
R2, and R3.
1) Choose a value for RTOTAL, the sum of R1, R2, and
R3. Because the MAX6458/MAX6459 have very high
input impedance, RTOTAL can be up to 5MΩ.
2) Calculate R3 based on RTOTAL and the desired upper
trip point:

4) Calculate R1 based on RTOTAL, R3, and R2:

The following is an example for calculating R1, R2, and
R3 of Figure 11 for window detection. Select the upper
and lower trip points (VTRIPHIGH and VTRIPLOW).
VCC = 21V
VTRIPHIGH = 23.1V
VTRIPLOW = 18.9V

Monitoring Voltages Other than VCC
The MAX6457–MAX6460 can monitor voltages other
than VCC (Figure 12). Calculate VTRIP as shown in the
Programming the Trip Voltage (VTRIP) section. The moni-
tored voltage (VMON) is independent of VCC. VIN+ must
be within the specified operating range: 0 to VCC.
Interfacing to Voltages Other than VCC
The open-drain outputs of the MAX6457–MAX6460 allow
the output voltage to be selected independent of VCC. For
systems requiring an output voltage other than VCC, con-
nect the pullup resistor between OUT, OUTA, or OUTB
and any desired voltage up to 28V (see Figure 13).
Monitoring Negative Voltages
Figure 14 shows the typical application circuit for monitor-
ing negative voltages (VNEG) using the MAX6460. Select
a value for R1 between 25kΩ and 1MΩ. Use the following
equation to select R2:
NEG
REF
-V
R 2 R1 V
= ×
where VREF = 2.25V and VNEG < 0. VIN+ must always be
within the specified operating range: 0 to VCC.
