The MAX6340UK26+T is a robust, high-precision microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuit designed by Maxim Integrated to monitor power supplies in µP and digital systems. It provides a significant level of system reliability and accuracy required in critical applications by ensuring that the µP is only operational when the power supply is within acceptable limits.
Key Features
- Voltage Monitoring: This device is tailored for systems that use a 2.6V power supply, constantly checking the voltage level to ensure it remains within threshold limits.
- Reset Output: In the event of a dip or surge in the power supply, the MAX6340UK26+T asserts a reset signal to prevent the system from operating under potentially harmful conditions. The reset output remains asserted for a minimum of 140ms after the supply voltage rises above the reset threshold, ensuring system stability.
- Low Power Consumption: With its low supply current of 1.2µA, this supervisory circuit is an excellent choice for power-sensitive applications.
- High Accuracy: The reset threshold is factory-set with high precision, offering a tight tolerance that is essential for reliable system operation.
- Compact Design: The device comes in a miniaturized SOT-23 package, making it suitable for space-constrained applications.
