Product details
Overview
The MAX16910DATA8/V+ from Analog Devices is an automotive-qualified, ultra-low quiescent current linear regulator delivering up to 200mA at fixed +3.3V output, operating from +3.5V to +30V input with 20µA no-load supply current and +45V transient tolerance-designed for battery-powered automotive control modules requiring cold-crank operation and load-dump resilience.
For engineers reviewing the MAX16910DATA8/V+ datasheet, MAX16910DATA8/V+ pinout, MAX16910DATA8/V+ application, or MAX16910DATA8/V+ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 87.5% reset threshold, 280mV dropout at 200mA, TDFN-EP 3mm × 3mm package, -40°C to +125°C temperature range, and integrated open-drain RESET with adjustable timeout.
Technical Context
The MAX16910DATA8/V+ implements a high-voltage BiCMOS DMOS linear regulation architecture with internal feedback network selection via SET/SETOV pins, enabling fixed +3.3V output when SET = GND and SETOV = GND. Its thermal protection activates at +180°C with +25°C hysteresis, and short-circuit current limit is 330mA (typ).
RESET functionality uses an internal comparator monitoring VOUT against 87.5% of nominal output, asserting active-low for 60µs minimum after threshold crossing; TIMEOUT pin allows external capacitor-based extension. ENABLE withstands +45V and features 0.65µA internal pulldown for reliable shutdown behavior.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | +3.5V to +30V continuous; +45V tolerant for ≤400ms-supports automotive load-dump and cold-crank conditions. |
| Output Voltage | +3.3V fixed (±2% over temp/load); set by internal divider with SET = GND and SETOV = GND. |
| Quiescent Current | 20µA at no load; enables >1-year battery standby in always-on vehicle modules. |
| Shutdown Current | 1.6µA max at -40°C to +125°C-ensures minimal parasitic drain during vehicle sleep mode. |
| Dropout Voltage | 280mV at 200mA (TJ = +25°C); maintains regulation down to VIN = 3.58V at full load. |
| RESET Threshold | 87.5% of VOUT (i.e., 2.8875V for 3.3V output), with 5% hysteresis-prevents chatter during brownout recovery. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +125°C ambient; qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1-suitable for under-hood ECUs. |
Pinout & Package
MAX16910DATA8/V+ is housed in an 8-pin thermally enhanced TDFN-EP package (3mm × 3mm, 0.75mm height) with exposed pad connected internally to GND. The exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal performance (θJA = 41°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 IN | Regulator input | Bypass with ≥1µF low-ESR ceramic; accepts +3.5V–+30V; +45V transient tolerant. |
| 2 ENABLE | Active-high enable | Logic-high ≥2.4V turns on regulator; internal 0.65µA pulldown ensures safe default-off state. |
| 3 SET | Mode selector | GND configures fixed-output mode; voltage >2.4V enables adjustable output via external divider. |
| 4 RESET | Open-drain reset output | Active-low assertion during undervoltage, shutdown, or thermal fault; requires external pullup. |
| 5 TIMEOUT | Reset timeout adjust | Unconnected yields 60µs delay; capacitor to GND extends timeout per C = 0.8 × ITO × T (ITO = 1µA typ). |
| 6 SETOV | Output voltage selector | GND selects +3.3V fixed output; OUT selects +5V; external divider enables 1.5V–11V adjustment. |
| 7 GND | Power ground | Reference for all signals; connects to exposed pad (EP) for thermal conduction. |
| 8 OUT | Regulated output | Delivers up to 200mA; requires ≥4.7µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 20µA at no load-meets ISO 16750-2 Class D and UNECE R10 requirements for vehicle sleep-mode leakage. |
| Automotive-grade thermal protection | +180°C shutdown with +25°C hysteresis-enables safe operation under sustained overload without external circuitry. |
| Integrated RESET with programmable delay | Fixed 87.5% threshold and 60µs base timeout eliminates need for discrete reset IC in microcontroller power sequencing. |
| High-voltage ENABLE input | +45V tolerant-allows direct connection to battery rail for simple always-on configurations without level-shifting. |
| Low-ESR capacitor compatibility | Stable with 4.7µF ceramic output cap-reduces BOM count and board area versus electrolytic solutions. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar linear regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX16910CATA8/V+ | Same TDFN-EP package and 87.5% RESET threshold; differs only in top-mark (+BLW vs +BRY) and process variant (C vs D grade). | Identical electrical specs and qualification; used interchangeably in production where lot traceability permits. | Select MAX16910DATA8/V+ for newer D-grade BiCMOS DMOS process with improved ESD robustness (2.5kV HBM). |
| TLV73333PDBVR | Lower IQ (450nA), lower current (300mA), but only 5.5V max input and not automotive-qualified; no RESET or TIMEOUT functions. | Suitable for non-automotive portable electronics; lacks load-dump tolerance, thermal shutdown hysteresis, and automotive temp range. | Choose only for cost-sensitive consumer designs without automotive stress requirements or system-level reset coordination needs. |

FAQ
What is the exact RESET threshold voltage for MAX16910DATA8/V+?
The MAX16910DATA8/V+ has a fixed RESET threshold of 87.5% of its nominal output voltage. For its +3.3V fixed output configuration, this equals 2.8875V (min 2.85V, max 2.925V over temperature and load). The threshold exhibits 5% hysteresis to prevent oscillation during recovery, and RESET remains asserted for a minimum of 60µs after VOUT exceeds the rising threshold.
Can MAX16910DATA8/V+ be used in adjustable-output mode?
Yes, MAX16910DATA8/V+ supports adjustable output from +1.5V to +11V by connecting SET to IN (or >2.4V) and using an external resistive divider between OUT and SETOV. The internal SETOV reference is 1.25V (±2%), and R2 should be ≤100kΩ. However, the MAX16910DATA8/V+ is factory-configured for +3.3V fixed output-adjustable mode requires reconfiguration per the datasheet's "Adjustable Output-Voltage Mode" section.
What package type and thermal characteristics does MAX16910DATA8/V+ have?
MAX16910DATA8/V+ uses an 8-pin TDFN-EP package (3mm × 3mm, 0.75mm height) with exposed pad connected to GND. Its junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is 41°C/W (on 4-layer board), and junction-to-case is 8°C/W. Derating begins at +70°C: 24.4mW/°C above that point, yielding 1951mW max dissipation at +70°C ambient.
How does the TIMEOUT pin affect RESET timing on MAX16910DATA8/V+?
When TIMEOUT is left unconnected, MAX16910DATA8/V+ defaults to a 60µs RESET timeout period. Connecting a capacitor (CTIMEOUT) from TIMEOUT to GND extends the delay per CTIMEOUT (nF) = 0.8 × ITO (µA) × TTIMEOUT (ms), where ITO = 1µA typical. For example, an 8nF capacitor yields ~10ms timeout. Ceramic capacitors ≥100pF are recommended; leakage must be <10nA.
Is MAX16910DATA8/V+ pin-compatible with other MAX16910 variants?
Yes, MAX16910DATA8/V+ shares identical pinout, footprint, and electrical behavior with all 8-pin TDFN-EP variants (e.g., MAX16910CATA8/V+, MAX16910EATA8/V+). Differences are limited to process grade (D-grade BiCMOS DMOS), top-mark code (+BRY), and minor ESD performance (2.5kV HBM)-all fully compatible in existing layouts and firmware.
