MAX6385XS26D3+T

Supervisors Analog Devices, Inc. MAX6385XS26D3+T Overview

The MAX6385XS26D3+T from Analog Devices, Inc. is a state-of-the-art microprocessor (MPU) supervisory circuit designed to monitor power supplies in microprocessor and digital systems. It provides a precise, low-power solution for managing system integrity through voltage monitoring. Its small SC70-4 package makes it ideal for space-constrained applications where reliability is paramount. This device enhances system reliability by asserting a reset signal whenever the monitored voltage drops below its threshold of 2.63V, ensuring safe operation and boot sequences in electronic devices.

MAX6385XS26D3+T Features

The MAX6385XS26D3+T features include a fixed reset threshold voltage of 2.63V, which simplifies the design process by eliminating external components. The device also offers a low quiescent current of only 9 µA, making it suitable for battery-operated applications. With its ability to operate over a wide temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, it is robust enough for demanding environments. The supervisor’s reset output is push-pull, which provides a strong and clear signal to connected MCUs or MPUs without the need for external pull-up resistors.
