The MAX6704SKA-T is a robust, low-power microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuit designed by Maxim Integrated to monitor power supplies in µP and digital systems. It offers excellent precision in monitoring system voltages, ensuring that the digital systems operate optimally within their power supply specifications.

Key Features

• Voltage Monitoring: This device provides precision monitoring of a single system supply voltage; it ensures that the system voltage does not fall below a predefined threshold, protecting the system from undervoltage conditions.
• Reset Output: The MAX6704SKA-T features an active-low reset output that remains asserted for a minimum of 140ms after VCC has risen above the reset threshold, ensuring a proper system reset during power-up, power-down, and brownout conditions.
• Low Power Consumption: Designed for power-sensitive applications, this supervisory circuit consumes minimal power, with a typical supply current of only 17µA, which helps to extend battery life in portable devices.
• Compact Package: The device comes in a small, 8-pin SOT23 package, making it ideal for space-constrained applications.
• Adjustable Reset Thresholds: With factory-trimmed reset thresholds suitable for monitoring a variety of supply voltages, the MAX6704SKA-T offers versatility for different system requirements.
• High Threshold Accuracy: The reset threshold accuracy is maintained over a wide temperature range, ensuring reliable operation under varying environmental conditions.

Applications

The MAX6704SKA-T is suited for a broad range of applications, including portable/battery-powered equipment, computers, controllers, intelligent instruments, critical µP and µC power monitoring, and automotive systems. Its ability to provide accurate and reliable monitoring of system power supplies makes it an essential component in the design of sophisticated electronic systems.
