Maxim Integrated's MAX6466XR16+T Voltage Detector

The MAX6466XR16+T is a highly precise voltage detector designed by Maxim Integrated, tailored for systems that require a reliable voltage monitoring solution. This compact, low-power device is ideal for a variety of applications, including portable devices, computers, battery-powered equipment, and other electronic systems where power supply stability is crucial.

With a fixed factory-set threshold voltage of 1.575V, the MAX6466XR16+T provides an accurate monitoring solution for 1.8V powered systems. The detector ensures that the system it monitors operates within its specified voltage range, triggering a reset signal when the monitored voltage drops below the threshold. This reset signal helps protect the system by allowing it to reinitialize and return to a known safe state, thereby preventing erratic behavior caused by unexpected voltage dips.

The MAX6466XR16+T comes in a tiny, surface-mount SOT-23 package, making it an excellent choice for space-constrained applications. Its small footprint allows for easy integration into existing designs without requiring significant board space. Despite its diminutive size, this voltage detector does not compromise on performance, offering a low supply current of typically 1.2µA, which is highly beneficial for battery-operated devices where power conservation is a priority.

Key features of the MAX6466XR16+T include:

• Fixed threshold voltage of 1.575V suitable for 1.8V power supplies
• Low quiescent current of 1.2µA, ideal for power-sensitive applications
• Compact SOT-23 package for space-saving design
• High threshold accuracy that ensures reliable operation under varying conditions
• Built-in hysteresis to prevent false triggering due to noise or transient signals

Maxim Integrated's commitment to quality and reliability is evident in the MAX6466XR16+T voltage detector. This device is an essential component for designers who need a dependable power monitoring solution that maintains the integrity of their electronic systems. Whether it's for industrial controls, medical devices, or consumer electronics, the MAX6466XR16+T provides the accuracy and stability needed for critical voltage detection tasks.
