MAX6301CUA+TCLH

Supervisors Overview

The MAX6301CUA+TCLH is a low-power microprocessor supervisory circuit manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. under the Maxim Integrated brand. It operates within a supply voltage range up to 5.5 V and monitors a single input with an adjustable threshold voltage of 1.24 V. The device features an active-low, open-drain output and includes a watchdog timer function. It provides a reset delay time of 4 ms and maintains an accuracy of 2%. Designed for surface mount installation in an 8-uMAX/uSOP package, it consumes only 7 uA of operating current. The component functions reliably across a temperature range from 0°C to +70°C.

Supervisors Feature Summary

• Integrates a watchdog timer for system reliability monitoring
• Features adjustable overvoltage threshold detection capabilities
• Provides active-low open-drain reset output signaling

Supervisors Applications

• Microprocessor power supply supervision
• Watchdog timer implementation in embedded systems
• Overvoltage protection circuits

Supervisors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix TCLH against official datasheets to confirm tape-and-reel packaging and temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with 8-uMAX/uSOP footprints during PCB layout. Cross-reference manufacturer part numbers to avoid confusion with similar supervisory ICs. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current documentation before procurement.

Supervisors Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-quiescent current supervisory circuit with integrated watchdog functionality is required. The adjustable threshold allows flexibility for various voltage rails. Verify that the 8-pin small outline package fits the mechanical constraints. Ensure the operating temperature range meets the environmental requirements of the target application.

Supervisors Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX6301 series of low-power microprocessor supervisory circuits. It is designed to monitor voltage levels and provide reset signals to digital systems. The series is known for combining voltage monitoring with watchdog timer functions in compact packages suitable for space-constrained electronic designs.

Supervisors Replacement Considerations

Consult official substitution guides for compatible parts within the MAX6301 family. Verify pinout and electrical specifications match before replacing. Generic equivalents may lack the integrated watchdog feature or adjustable threshold capability.
