Maxim Integrated MAX6431MRUS+T Product Overview

The MAX6431MRUS+T is a high-quality, low-power microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuit produced by Maxim Integrated, designed to monitor power supplies in µP and digital systems. It provides a precise, factory-trimmed V<sub>CC reset threshold and reset timeout period to ensure reliable operation of your system.

This device is particularly suited for battery-powered applications due to its low power consumption. It offers excellent circuit reliability and low cost by eliminating external components and adjustments when monitoring 3V, 3.3V, and 5V power supplies. The MAX6431MRUS+T is available in a compact SOT23-8 package, making it ideal for space-constrained applications.

Key Features

• Voltage Monitoring: Accurate monitoring of the system voltage with a preset threshold, ensuring the proper operation of the microprocessor by providing a reset signal whenever the supply voltage drops below a certain level.
• Reset Timeout: Features a fixed timeout period which holds the reset output active for a period of time after V<sub>CC has risen above the reset threshold, allowing the system to stabilize.
• Low Power Consumption: Ideal for portable and battery-powered applications, the MAX6431MRUS+T is designed to consume minimal power, thereby extending battery life.
• Temperature Range: Operates over an extended temperature range, making it suitable for use in a variety of environmental conditions.
• Package Type: Comes in a small SOT23-8 package, which is perfect for use in systems where space is at a premium.
