Product Overview: MAX6316LUK29CX+T

The MAX6316LUK29CX+T is a highly reliable, low-power microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuit, designed and manufactured by Maxim Integrated, a leader in analog and mixed-signal engineering. This compact component is specifically engineered to monitor power supplies in µP and digital systems, providing a significant layer of protection against low-voltage conditions, which are critical for the proper functioning of electronic devices.

Encased in a small SOT-23 package, the MAX6316LUK29CX+T is an ideal solution for space-constrained applications. It offers a precise factory-set V_CC reset threshold of 2.9V, which ensures that the µP resets correctly during power-up, power-down, and brown-out conditions. This reset threshold accuracy is maintained over a wide temperature range, making it suitable for various operating environments.

One of the key features of the MAX6316LUK29CX+T is its low power consumption. With a typical supply current of only 1.2µA, this device is optimized for battery-powered and portable applications where power efficiency is crucial. Additionally, it provides a debounced manual reset input, which allows for a system reset to be manually triggered with ease.

The MAX6316LUK29CX+T supervisory circuit includes an active-low reset output, which remains asserted for a minimum of 140ms after V_CC has risen above the reset threshold level. This ensures that the µP has sufficient time to stabilize and execute a proper startup sequence. The device's robustness is further enhanced by its ability to operate over the extended industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

With its combination of features, the MAX6316LUK29CX+T is an excellent choice for designers looking to enhance system reliability in microprocessor-based systems, including computers, controllers, intelligent instruments, and portable electronics. Maxim Integrated's commitment to quality guarantees that the MAX6316LUK29CX+T will perform reliably, safeguarding your electronic systems against the dangers of unpredictable power supply conditions.
