Maxim Integrated MAX6377XR29+T Voltage Detector

The Maxim Integrated MAX6377XR29+T is a high-precision voltage detector designed for monitoring power supplies in digital systems. It ensures reliable operation and protection for microprocessors, microcontrollers, and other voltage-sensitive devices by providing an active-low reset signal when the monitored voltage falls below a predefined threshold. The MAX6377XR29+T is part of Maxim's family of low-power, small-footprint, and high-accuracy supervisory circuits.

Key Features

• Factory-Set Reset Threshold: The device comes with a preset voltage threshold of 2.9V, which is ideal for 3.3V power supply monitoring, eliminating the need for external resistors to set the operating voltage.
• Low Power Consumption: Designed for power-sensitive applications, the MAX6377XR29+T consumes minimal power, with a typical quiescent current of only 5.5µA.
• Manual Reset Input: It includes a manual reset input that allows users to trigger a reset manually, providing additional system control flexibility.
• Reset Timeout: The reset output remains asserted for a minimum timeout period after the monitored voltage returns to an acceptable level, ensuring system stability.
• Operating Temperature Range: The device is built to operate over an extended temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, suitable for various industrial and automotive applications.
• Small Package: The MAX6377XR29+T comes in a small, 3-pin SC70 package, making it ideal for space-constrained applications.
