MAX6335US16D3-T

Overview

The MAX6335US16D3-T is a supervisory circuit manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. (Maxim Integrated). It features a fixed output voltage of 1.6V, ensuring precise monitoring for low-voltage digital systems. The device includes an active-low reset output with a typical delay time of 200ms. It operates within a supply voltage range of 1.2V to 5.5V and offers manual reset input capability. Packaged in an 8-pin SOIC, it provides reliable system protection against brown-out conditions.

Feature Summary

• Provides stable supervision for microprocessor and memory circuits
• Includes manual reset input for user-initiated system restarts
• Features watchdog timer functionality to detect software errors
• Offers compact packaging suitable for space-constrained designs

Applications

• Portable electronic devices requiring low-voltage monitoring
• Embedded systems needing brown-out protection
• Microcontroller-based applications requiring reset signal generation
• Memory backup circuits in battery-powered equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify the suffix 'T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging when ordering. Confirm the specific voltage variant matches the 1.6V requirement. Ensure the SOIC package type aligns with PCB layout specifications. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet for any updates on recommended operating conditions or thermal characteristics before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a fixed 1.6V threshold is required for system supervision. Consider the manual reset feature if user intervention capabilities are necessary. Evaluate the watchdog timer function for applications prone to software lockups. Compare power consumption requirements against other supervisory ICs to ensure compatibility with low-power design goals.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX6335 family of supervisory circuits designed for critical system monitoring. It complements other Maxim Integrated products by offering integrated watchdog and reset functions in a small form factor. The series supports various voltage thresholds, making it versatile for different logic families and power rails within complex electronic assemblies.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct pin-compatible alternatives from the same manufacturer with similar voltage thresholds. Verify that substitute parts maintain the same watchdog timeout and reset delay characteristics. Ensure any replacement supports the required manual reset input functionality. Consult official substitution guides for validated cross-references.
