Maxim Integrated MAX6425UK46+T Voltage Detector

The MAX6425UK46+T is a high-quality voltage detector designed by Maxim Integrated, a renowned leader in the development of innovative analog and mixed-signal products. This precision device is engineered to monitor voltages, providing a reliable solution for systems that require voltage supervision to ensure stable and secure operation.

The MAX6425UK46+T belongs to a family of microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuits that are tailored to prevent system failures during power-up, power-down, and brown-out conditions. By monitoring the supply voltage of digital systems, it can assert a reset signal to the processor when the monitored voltage falls below a predefined threshold, safeguarding the system from unpredictable behavior or data corruption.

This voltage detector comes in a compact SOT-23 package, making it suitable for space-constrained applications. It features a fixed-sense threshold voltage of 4.6V, which is ideal for 5V systems. The reset output from the MAX6425UK46+T remains asserted for a minimum reset timeout period after V_CC has risen above the reset threshold, ensuring that the system has adequate time to stabilize before resuming operation.

Key features of the MAX6425UK46+T include:

• Compact SOT-23 package for space-saving designs
• Fixed threshold voltage of 4.6V tailored for 5V-powered circuits
• Low supply current, making it energy-efficient for portable applications
• Immune to short V_CC transients to avoid false triggering
• Factory-trimmed reset threshold for high accuracy
• Minimum 140ms reset timeout period to ensure system stability

This voltage detector is commonly used in microprocessor systems, computers, controllers, and intelligent instruments where precise voltage monitoring is critical. With its robust design and high reliability, the MAX6425UK46+T is an excellent choice for designers looking to enhance the operational safety of their digital systems.

Maxim Integrated's commitment to quality ensures that the MAX6425UK46+T voltage detector meets the stringent requirements of various industrial, communication, and consumer electronics applications, providing a dependable solution for voltage supervision tasks.
