Product details
Overview
MAX16910DATA8/V+T from Analog Devices is an automotive-qualified, ultra-low quiescent current linear regulator delivering up to 200mA output with 20µA no-load supply current, 280mV dropout at 200mA, and +3.5V to +30V input range. It supports fixed 3.3V/5V or adjustable 1.5V–11V outputs and operates across –40°C to +125°C for engine control units and body electronics.
For engineers reviewing the MAX16910DATA8/V+T datasheet, MAX16910DATA8/V+T pinout, MAX16910DATA8/V+T application, or MAX16910DATA8/V+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its 87.5% reset threshold, 1.6µA shutdown current, +45V transient tolerance, TDFN-EP thermal performance, and compatibility with cold-crank and load-dump conditions in automotive power domains.
Technical Context
The MAX16910DATA8/V+T implements a high-voltage BiCMOS DMOS linear regulator architecture with integrated thermal shutdown (+180°C trip, +25°C hysteresis), short-circuit protection (330mA limit), and active-high ENABLE with internal 0.65µA pulldown. Its RESET output is open-drain, active-low, with factory-set 87.5% output voltage threshold and 60µs default timeout.
Output voltage configuration is determined by SET and SETOV pins: SET = GND + SETOV = GND selects 3.3V fixed mode; SET = GND + SETOV = OUT selects 5V fixed mode; SET > 2.4V enables adjustable mode via external resistive divider. The TIMEOUT pin allows capacitor-adjustable reset delay up to milliseconds.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | +3.5V to +30V continuous, +45V tolerant for 400ms - survives automotive load-dump transients. |
| Quiescent Current | 20µA at no load - enables always-on modules meeting <100µA system standby targets. |
| Shutdown Current | 1.6µA - minimizes battery drain during vehicle sleep mode. |
| Output Current | 200mA max - sufficient for MCU cores, CAN transceivers, and sensor interfaces. |
| Dropout Voltage | 280mV at 200mA - sustains regulation during cold-crank down to ~4.0V input at 5V output. |
| Reset Threshold | 87.5% of VOUT - ensures reliable microcontroller reset before brownout at 3.3V or 5V output. |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood and transmission-control applications. |
Pinout & Package
MAX16910DATA8/V+T is housed in a thermally enhanced 3mm × 3mm, 8-pin TDFN-EP package with exposed pad connected internally to GND. The EP must be soldered to PCB ground plane for optimal thermal performance (θJA = 41°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 IN | Regulator input | Bypass with ≥1µF low-ESR ceramic; withstands +45V transients. |
| 2 ENABLE | Active-high enable | Internally pulled down; 0.65µA sink; +45V tolerant - supports direct IN connection for always-on operation. |
| 3 SET | Feedback mode selector | GND = fixed output; >2.4V = adjustable mode using external resistor divider. |
| 4 RESET | Open-drain active-low reset | Asserts low on undervoltage, ENABLE low, or thermal shutdown; requires external pull-up. |
| 5 TIMEOUT | Reset timeout adjust | 60µs default; connect capacitor to GND for extended delay (e.g., 8nF → 10ms). |
| 6 SETOV | Output voltage reference node | GND = 3.3V mode; OUT = 5V mode; external divider node for adjustable output (1.5V–11V). |
| 7 GND | Power ground | Reference for all signals; connects to EP for thermal conduction. |
| 8 OUT | Regulated output | Stable with ≥4.7µF ceramic capacitor; supports 200mA load with low noise and fast transient response. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 20µA no-load operation - extends battery life in always-on automotive modules. |
| Integrated reset generator | 87.5% VOUT threshold with adjustable timeout - eliminates need for discrete reset IC in ECU designs. |
| Load-dump robustness | +45V input transient tolerance - meets ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a requirements without external clamping. |
| Thermal & short-circuit protection | +180°C shutdown with +25°C hysteresis and 330mA current limit - enables fault-tolerant operation in harsh environments. |
| Flexible output configuration | Single device supports 3.3V, 5V, or 1.5V–11V outputs via pin-strapping - reduces BOM count across platform variants. |

FAQ
What is the reset threshold voltage of the MAX16910DATA8/V+T?
The MAX16910DATA8/V+T features a factory-set reset threshold at 87.5% of the output voltage. For a 5V output, this equals 4.375V; for 3.3V, it is 2.8875V. The threshold has ±2.5% tolerance over temperature and load, and RESET remains asserted for 60µs after VOUT exceeds the threshold unless extended via TIMEOUT capacitor.
Can the MAX16910DATA8/V+T be used in adjustable-output mode?
Yes, the MAX16910DATA8/V+T supports adjustable output from 1.5V to 11V by connecting SET to IN (or >2.4V) and configuring SETOV as the feedback node with an external resistive divider. The output follows VOUT = 1.25V × (1 + R1/R2), where R2 ≤ 100kΩ ensures stability and accuracy.
What package type does the MAX16910DATA8/V+T use?
The MAX16910DATA8/V+T uses a 3mm × 3mm, 8-pin TDFN-EP package with exposed thermal pad. This package provides θJA = 41°C/W and θJC = 8°C/W, enabling high-power dissipation in compact automotive layouts. The EP must be soldered to PCB ground for thermal integrity.
How does the ENABLE pin function on the MAX16910DATA8/V+T?
The ENABLE pin on the MAX16910DATA8/V+T is active-high with internal 0.65µA pulldown. Driving ENABLE ≥2.4V turns the regulator on; pulling it ≤0.4V places it in shutdown (1.6µA IQ). ENABLE tolerates up to +45V, allowing direct connection to IN for always-on operation without level-shifting circuitry.
Is the MAX16910DATA8/V+T qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the MAX16910DATA8/V+T is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 2: –40°C to +105°C ambient / –40°C to +125°C junction), manufactured in an automotive-grade process, and tested per ISO 7637-2 load-dump and cold-crank requirements. The "/V+" suffix explicitly denotes automotive qualification.
