Maxim Integrated's MAX6466UR29+T Voltage Monitor
The MAX6466UR29+T is a compact, low-power voltage monitor from Maxim Integrated, designed to provide precise monitoring of power supplies in a wide range of electronic applications. This device is particularly suited for portable and battery-powered equipment due to its small footprint and low quiescent current. Its primary function is to ensure that the system voltage does not fall below a specific threshold, thus safeguarding sensitive electronic components from undervoltage conditions.
Key Features
- High Accuracy: The MAX6466UR29+T offers a tight threshold voltage accuracy of ±1.5% at room temperature, which is essential for reliable system performance.
- Low Power Consumption: With a quiescent current of only 3.5µA, this voltage monitor is an energy-efficient solution that helps extend battery life in portable devices.
- Configurable Threshold Voltage: The device is preset with a factory-trimmed threshold voltage of 2.9V, suitable for monitoring 3.3V power supplies.
- Small Size: The ultra-small, 3-pin SOT-23 package makes it ideal for space-constrained applications.
- Reset Output: It provides a reset output, which remains asserted for a minimum of 140ms after VCC rises above the reset threshold, ensuring a proper system reset.
- Wide Operating Temperature Range: The device is operational over the extended temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, accommodating various environmental conditions.
