MAX6302EPA+

Supervisors Overview

The MAX6302EPA+ is a low-power supervisory circuit designed for +5V systems, manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features an adjustable reset threshold and an integrated watchdog timer. The device operates within a supply voltage range of 1.24 V to 5.5 V and draws a typical quiescent current of 4 uA. It provides a push-pull active high output with a fixed reset delay time of 4 ms. The component is housed in an 8-pin PDIP package and supports through-hole mounting. It functions without manual reset or battery backup switching capabilities.

Supervisors Feature Summary

• Integrates an adjustable watchdog timer for system fault detection
• Provides active high push-pull reset output signal
• Operates with ultra-low power consumption suitable for battery applications

Supervisors Applications

• Portable electronic devices requiring low standby current
• Microprocessor monitoring in industrial control systems
• Battery-powered instrumentation circuits

Supervisors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix and revision level against official datasheets before procurement. Confirm availability status as distribution channels may list obsolete or limited stock items. Ensure the PDIP-8 package matches your PCB footprint requirements. Check RoHS compliance documentation if required for your manufacturing standards.

Supervisors Selection Notes

Select this component when an adjustable reset threshold and watchdog functionality are required in a single-chip solution. Consider the 4 ms reset delay and active high output polarity during interface design. Evaluate the 4 uA quiescent current against total system power budgets. Verify that the 5.5 V maximum supply voltage aligns with the target application's power rail specifications.

Supervisors Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX6302 series of microprocessor supervisory circuits. It shares functional similarities with other Maxim Integrated voltage supervisors but offers specific adjustability in its reset threshold. The PDIP-8 package variant distinguishes it from surface-mount options like the SOIC-8 version, catering to through-hole assembly needs.

Supervisors Replacement Considerations

Consult official cross-reference guides for verified substitutes. Ensure replacement parts match the PDIP-8 package, active high output, and watchdog functionality. Verify electrical parameters such as supply voltage range and quiescent current compatibility.
