Maxim Integrated MAX6377XR28+T Voltage Supervisor Overview

The MAX6377XR28+T is a precision voltage supervisor from Maxim Integrated, designed to provide monitoring and control functionality for system voltages in a wide range of electronic applications. This component is part of Maxim's family of low-power microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuits, which are engineered to maintain system integrity by monitoring the power supply and asserting a reset if a fault condition is detected.

Key Features

• Voltage Monitoring: The device is capable of monitoring a +2.5V, +3.0V, +3.3V, or +5.0V power supply, with a factory preset reset threshold voltage (V_TH) of 2.8V, ensuring reliable operation if the supply voltage drops below this threshold.
• Manual Reset Input: An additional feature is the manual reset input, which allows the user to trigger a system reset manually, providing an extra layer of control.
• Low Power Consumption: With its low quiescent current of only 1.2µA, the MAX6377XR28+T is an energy-efficient solution for portable and battery-operated devices.
• Reset Timeout: After the monitored voltage exceeds the reset threshold, the reset output remains asserted for a reset timeout period, allowing the system to stabilize.
• Operating Temperature: The device operates over an extended temperature range from -40°C to +125°C, making it suitable for industrial environments.
• Packaging: It comes in a compact, 3-pin SC70 package, which is ideal for space-constrained applications.

Applications

The MAX6377XR28+T is highly versatile and finds use in various applications, including:

• Portable/Battery-Powered Devices
• Embedded Systems
• Data Storage Systems
