Maxim Integrated MAX6310UK42D3-T Voltage Supervisor IC

The MAX6310UK42D3-T is a highly precise and reliable voltage supervisor integrated circuit (IC) designed and manufactured by Maxim Integrated, a renowned leader in the development of innovative analog and mixed-signal products. This particular IC is engineered to monitor the voltage levels in digital systems and ensure that the system operates within safe parameters, thus providing an essential safeguard against potential damage caused by voltage fluctuations.

The MAX6310UK42D3-T is specifically designed to maintain system integrity by monitoring the supply voltage (Vcc) and asserting a reset signal whenever Vcc drops below the factory-programmed threshold of 4.2V. The reset signal remains active until Vcc rises above the reset threshold, ensuring that the system microprocessor or other critical components are reset properly and operate correctly upon power-up or during brown-out conditions.

This voltage supervisor IC comes in a compact SOT-23 package, making it suitable for space-constrained applications. It also features a low supply current, which is particularly beneficial for battery-powered devices where power conservation is crucial. The MAX6310UK42D3-T operates over a wide temperature range, making it versatile for various industrial, commercial, and consumer applications.

Key features of the MAX6310UK42D3-T include:

• Factory-set reset threshold voltage of 4.2V
• Low power consumption with a typical supply current of only 1.2µA
• Guaranteed reset valid to Vcc = 1V
• Immune to short Vcc transients
• No external components required
• Wide operating temperature range
• Compact SOT-23 packaging

The MAX6310UK42D3-T is ideal for use in microprocessor systems, computers, controllers, and intelligent instruments, where maintaining accurate voltage levels is critical for data integrity and reliable operation. Its ease of integration, coupled with Maxim Integrated's reputation for quality, makes it a top choice for designers looking to enhance the stability and robustness of their electronic systems.

With its precision voltage monitoring and low power consumption, the MAX6310UK42D3-T is a testament to Maxim Integrated's commitment to providing sophisticated solutions for complex power management challenges.
