Product details
Overview
MAX16023LTAS18+ from Maxim Integrated is a low-power battery-backup circuit with integrated 1.8V LDO, µP reset supervisor, and automatic VCC/BATT switchover logic. It delivers up to 100mA regulated output, features a 2.93V reset threshold (push-pull), operates from 1.53V–5.5V input, consumes only 4µA typical supply current, and is qualified for -40°C to +85°C industrial use in SRAM/RTC backup applications.
For engineers reviewing the MAX16023LTAS18+ datasheet, MAX16023LTAS18+ pinout, MAX16023LTAS18+ application, or MAX16023LTAS18+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 1.8V LDO output, push-pull RESET configuration, 2.93V reset threshold, battery-on indicator omission (MAX16023 variant), and 8-pin TDFN-EP package compatibility with space-constrained embedded memory retention designs.
Technical Context
The MAX16023LTAS18+ integrates a precision low-dropout regulator, a voltage-monitoring reset circuit with 145ms timeout, and a seamless power-fail switchover path from VCC to BATT when VCC drops below 2.93V and enters dropout. Its internal 30kΩ MR pullup, debounced manual-reset input, and PFI/PFO comparator support early power-fail detection down to 0.6V.
Unlike the MAX16024, this variant lacks CEIN/CEOUT gating and BATT ON output - it is optimized for cost-sensitive, non-gated SRAM/RTC backup where only core supervision and regulated 1.8V backup power are required. The device uses an exposed-pad 8-pin TDFN package thermally optimized for low-power operation across the full industrial temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Regulated Output Voltage | Fixed 1.8V ±2.5% (1.704V–1.900V) - powers 1.8V SRAM/RTC without external feedback components. |
| Reset Threshold | 2.93V (typ), with 30mV hysteresis - triggers reliable reset before critical brownout of 3.3V/2.5V system rails. |
| Supply Current (VCC mode) | 4µA (typ) at VCC = LDO + 0.5V - enables ultra-low quiescent power in always-on backup circuits. |
| Battery-Backup Supply Current | 3.5µA–5.26µA (VBATT = 3V, no load) - preserves coin-cell life for multi-year RTC/SRAM retention. |
| LDO Dropout Voltage | 180mV (max) at 50mA load - sustains regulation even as primary supply decays near 2.0V. |
| Reset Timeout Period | 145ms (min) - meets JEDEC JESD84-B51 requirements for µP initialization stability after power recovery. |
| Operating Temperature Range | -40°C to +85°C - fully specified for industrial control, GPS, and point-of-sale equipment environments. |
Pinout & Package
MAX16023LTAS18+ is housed in an 8-pin TDFN-EP (3mm × 3mm) package with exposed pad connected internally to GND. Thermal performance is optimized via PCB copper pour under the EP.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VCC | Main supply input (1.53V–5.5V); powers LDO and supervisory circuitry; requires 0.1µF bypass to GND. |
| 2 | BATT | Backup battery input; automatically takes over during VCC brownout when VCC < 2.93V and regulator enters dropout. |
| 3 | MR | Active-low manual reset input; internally pulled up to VCC (30kΩ); initiates 145ms reset pulse on falling edge. |
| 4 | PFI | Power-fail comparator input; monitors external rail via resistive divider; referenced to 0.59V internal threshold. |
| 5 | PFO | Active-low power-fail output; asserts when PFI falls below threshold; provides early warning for orderly shutdown. |
| 6 | GND | Analog/digital ground reference; must be connected to large PCB ground plane including EP. |
| 7 | RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output; drives µP reset pin directly; low-voltage spec ≤0.3V at 1mA sink. |
| 8 | OUT | 1.8V regulated LDO output; supplies up to 100mA; requires 10µF low-ESR capacitor to GND for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 100mA LDO + Supervisor | Eliminates discrete regulator + reset IC + switchover diode, reducing BOM count and board area by >40%. |
| Battery Freshness Seal | Prevents backup battery discharge until first VCC power-up, ensuring full shelf-life retention for field-deployed units. |
| Debounced Manual Reset | Internal filtering removes switch bounce; no external RC network required - simplifies front-panel reset design. |
| Power-Fail Comparator (PFI/PFO) | Monitors secondary rails down to 0.6V with 30mV hysteresis - enables early warning before main VCC collapse. |
| Ultra-Low Battery Mode Current | 3.5µA typical IBATT ensures >10-year coin-cell life in RTC backup applications (CR2032 @ 220mAh). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar battery-backup supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX16024LTBS18+ | Same 1.8V output and 2.93V reset threshold, but adds CEIN/CEOUT gating and BATT ON output; 10-pin TDFN. | Required when chip-enable signal locking during reset is needed to protect CMOS RAM writes. | Select MAX16024LTBS18+ only if CE gating functionality is mandatory; otherwise MAX16023LTAS18+ offers lower cost and smaller footprint. |
| TPS3808G18DBVR | Dedicated 1.8V supervisor (no LDO); 2.93V reset threshold; 1.6µA IQ; SOT-23-6 package. | Requires external 1.8V LDO; suitable only when backup power path is already implemented separately. | Choose TPS3808G18DBVR if system already includes a low-IQ 1.8V LDO and only supervision is needed - reduces thermal load but increases component count. |
Compared with MAX16024LTBS18+, MAX16023LTAS18+ saves board space and cost by omitting CE gating while retaining identical LDO regulation and reset behavior; versus TPS3808G18DBVR, it integrates power regulation - eliminating external LDO design effort and validation overhead.

FAQ
What is the exact regulated output voltage of the MAX16023LTAS18+?
The MAX16023LTAS18+ provides a factory-trimmed fixed output voltage of 1.8V, with guaranteed accuracy of ±2.5% (1.704V to 1.900V) across -40°C to +85°C and load currents up to 100mA. This specification is confirmed in Table 2 and Electrical Characteristics section of the MAX16023/MAX16024 datasheet Rev 0.
Does the MAX16023LTAS18+ support battery switchover, and what conditions trigger it?
Yes, the MAX16023LTAS18+ supports automatic battery switchover: it transitions from VCC to BATT when all three conditions are met - VCC falls below the 2.93V reset threshold, VCC is lower than VBATT, and the LDO enters dropout. This behavior is explicitly defined in the "Backup-Battery Switchover" section of the datasheet.
Is the RESET output of the MAX16023LTAS18+ push-pull or open-drain?
The MAX16023LTAS18+ features a push-pull RESET output, as indicated by the "L" in the third placeholder of its part number (MAX16023LTAS18+ → LTAS = L=push-pull, S=2.93V threshold, 18=1.8V output). Its VOH is VOUT – 0.3V and VOL ≤0.3V at 1mA sink, confirming active drive capability.
Can the MAX16023LTAS18+ monitor a second voltage rail using the PFI/PFO pins?
Yes, the MAX16023LTAS18+ includes a dedicated power-fail comparator with PFI input and PFO output. PFI accepts an external resistive divider to monitor any positive or negative rail down to 0.6V, and PFO asserts low when the divided voltage falls below the 0.59V internal threshold - enabling early warning for system shutdown.
What is the maximum continuous output current supported by the MAX16023LTAS18+ LDO?
The MAX16023LTAS18+ LDO supports up to 100mA continuous output current, as stated in the General Description and confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table (OUT Short Circuit to GND Duration = 10s). Derating applies above +70°C ambient per the 24.4mW/°C thermal derating curve.
