MAX16072RS29D2+T

Supervisors Overview

The MAX16072RS29D2+T is a microprocessor supervisory circuit manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. under the Maxim Integrated brand. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.8V to 3.6V and features a fixed reset threshold voltage of 2.93V. The device utilizes a UCSP-4 package, measuring 1mm x 1mm, suitable for surface-mount installation. It functions as a power supply support circuit with one channel, employing BICMOS technology. The component asserts an active-low push-pull reset output during power-up, power-down, and brownout conditions to ensure system reliability.

Supervisors Feature Summary

• Integrates precision band-gap reference, comparator, and internally trimmed resistors to eliminate external components
• Provides reliable monitoring of system supply voltage across wide operating conditions
• Features ultra-small footprint design for space-constrained applications

Supervisors Applications

• Microprocessor system supervision
• Power-up and power-down sequence control
• Brownout detection in portable devices

Supervisors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix D2 against official documentation, as standard listings often use RS29D0 or RS29D2 variants. Confirm RoHS compliance status through manufacturer certificates. Check current lifecycle status as some sources indicate discontinuation. Ensure the UCSP-4 package availability matches project requirements before finalizing procurement plans.

Supervisors Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 2.93V threshold is required for systems operating between 1.8V and 3.6V. The UCSP-4 package offers minimal board space usage compared to larger supervisor packages. Consider the active-low output configuration compatibility with the target microprocessor reset pin logic levels during circuit design integration.

Supervisors Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX16072/MAX16073/MAX16074 family of ultra-small, ultra-low-power µP supervisory circuits. These devices are designed to monitor nominal system voltages and provide excellent circuit reliability by removing the need for external adjustments. The family shares core architecture but differs in output polarity and threshold settings.

Supervisors Replacement Considerations

MAX16072RS29D0+T serves as a direct functional substitute within the same series. Verify package compatibility and threshold voltage alignment when substituting.
