MAX6004EUR-T

Overview

The MAX6004EUR-T is a micropower, low-dropout series voltage reference from the MAX6001–MAX6005 family. It provides a fixed output voltage of 4.096V in a compact SOT23-3 package. The device features a maximum initial accuracy of 1% and a temperature coefficient of 100ppm/°C. Quiescent supply current is limited to 45µA with minimal variation relative to input voltage changes. It supports an input voltage range from VOUT + 0.2V up to 12.6V and operates reliably across a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Eliminates the need for external resistors required by conventional shunt references
• Internally compensated design removes requirement for external compensation capacitors
• Operates with virtually constant supply current independent of supply voltage variations
• Capable of sourcing and sinking load currents up to 400µA

Applications

• Portable and battery-powered equipment
• Notebook computers
• PDAs, GPSs, and digital multimeters (DMMs)
• Cellular phones and pagers
• Hard-disk drives

Procurement Notes

Verify that the ordering suffix matches the specific tape-and-reel packaging configuration intended for automated assembly processes. Confirm the component meets RoHS compliance standards required for your manufacturing environment. Ensure the supplier source aligns with Analog Devices distribution channels to guarantee authenticity and traceability for critical circuit designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when board space is constrained due to its small SOT23-3 footprint. It is suitable for applications requiring stable reference voltages without external resistor networks. Consider the 4.096V output level against system requirements. Evaluate the low quiescent current benefits for extending battery life in portable devices compared to traditional shunt reference topologies.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX6001–MAX6005 family of low-cost, low-power voltage references manufactured by Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated. These devices combine the cost advantages of shunt references with the power efficiency of series references. The family offers various fixed output voltages within the same pin-compatible SOT23-3 package format.

Replacement Considerations

Other members of the MAX6001–MAX6005 family share identical pinouts and packages but provide different fixed output voltages.
