MAX6104EUR+T

Overview

The MAX6104EUR+T is a low-cost, micropower, low-dropout voltage reference with a fixed output of 4.096V. It operates within an input voltage range from VOUT + 200mV to 12.6V and draws a maximum quiescent supply current of 125µA. The device provides a maximum initial accuracy of ±0.4% and features a temperature coefficient of 75ppm/°C. It can source up to 5mA and sink up to 2mA of load current while maintaining stability without requiring an external compensation capacitor.

Feature Summary

• Features proprietary curvature-correction circuitry and laser-trimmed thin-film resistors for high precision
• Eliminates the need for external compensation capacitors, saving board space in compact designs
• Maintains stable operation across varying capacitive loads without additional components
• Offers ultra-low dropout voltage characteristics suitable for battery-powered systems

Applications

• Portable battery-powered systems
• Notebook computers
• PDAs and GPS devices
• Cellular phones
• Hard-disk drives

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official manufacturer documentation to confirm package type and tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with standard SOT-23 footprint requirements during PCB layout. Confirm that the selected component meets all environmental and regulatory standards required for the final assembly process.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a precise 4.096V reference is needed in a minimal footprint. Consider the 125µA maximum supply current for power-sensitive applications. Evaluate the 75ppm/°C temperature coefficient against system thermal requirements. Verify that the input voltage range accommodates the minimum dropout requirement relative to the 4.096V output.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX6100–MAX6107 family of series-mode voltage references manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. The family shares common architectural features including micropower consumption and low-dropout performance. Variations within the family are defined primarily by their fixed output voltage options, ranging from 1.25V to 5V, while maintaining consistent package and electrical characteristics.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same family include MAX6100EUR+T (1.8V), MAX6101EUR+T (1.25V), MAX6102EUR+T (2.5V), MAX6103EUR+T (3V), MAX6105EUR+T (5V), MAX6106EUR+T (2.048V), and MAX6107EUR+T (4.5V). Cross-family replacements require verification of pinout compatibility and electrical parameter alignment.
