Product details
Overview
MAX16910EASA9/V+T from Analog Devices is an automotive-qualified, ultra-low quiescent current linear regulator delivering up to 200mA output with 20µA no-load IQ, 280mV dropout at 200mA, and +45V transient tolerance - designed for battery-powered and cold-crank automotive systems requiring stable 5V fixed output.
For engineers reviewing the MAX16910EASA9/V+T datasheet, MAX16910EASA9/V+T pinout, MAX16910EASA9/V+T application, or MAX16910EASA9/V+T equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions, confirmed thermal and reset behavior, and real-world automotive supply-chain alternatives - all grounded in the official MAX16910 datasheet Rev 9 (2025).
Technical Context
The MAX16910EASA9/V+T implements a high-voltage BiCMOS DMOS linear regulation architecture with internal feedback selection logic controlled by SET and SETOV pins. It supports three operating modes: 3.3V fixed (SETOV = GND), 5V fixed (SETOV = OUT), or adjustable (SET = IN, external resistive divider), with VSETOV = 1.25V reference.
Its RESET output is open-drain, active-low, with factory-trimmed 92.5% output threshold (per /V+9 suffix) and fixed 60µs timeout (extendable via TIMEOUT capacitor). ENABLE withstands +45V and features internal 0.65µA pulldown for reliable shutdown control under high-impedance drive conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | +3.5V to +30V continuous; +45V tolerant for load-dump survival |
| Output Current | Up to 200mA continuous; short-circuit limited to 330mA typ |
| Quiescent Current | 20µA at no load; drops to 1.6µA in shutdown mode |
| Dropout Voltage | 280mV at 200mA (5V output); enables operation during cold-crank down to ~3.8V input |
| RESET Threshold | 92.5% of VOUT (confirmed by /V+9 suffix); hysteresis = 5% of VOUT |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +125°C ambient; junction rated to +150°C; thermal shutdown at +180°C |
| Package | 8-pin SO-EP (5mm × 4mm); exposed pad thermally connected to GND |
Pinout & Package
MAX16910EASA9/V+T uses the 8-pin SO-EP package (5mm × 4mm) with exposed thermal pad (EP) internally tied to GND. The EP must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal performance (θJA = 53°C/W, θJC = 7°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; internal 0.65µA pulldown ensures safe shutdown when floating |
| 3 SET | Feedback mode selector | GND = fixed-output mode; IN or >2.4V = adjustable mode (external resistor divider) |
| 4 RESET | Open-drain active-low reset | Asserts low when VOUT < 92.5% VOUT or ENABLE = low; sinks 0.5mA @ VOL ≤ 0.4V |
| 5 TIMEOUT | Reset timeout adjust | Open = 60µs default; capacitor to GND extends delay (e.g., 1nF → ~1.25ms) |
| 6 SETOV | Output voltage selector | GND = 3.3V fixed; OUT = 5V fixed; external divider node for adjustable (1.5V–11V) |
| 7 GND | Power ground | Main return path; EP must be connected to same ground plane |
| 8 OUT | Regulated output | Stable with ≥4.7µF low-ESR ceramic; supports 200mA load with 280mV dropout |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 20µA IQ enables >10-year battery standby in always-on automotive modules |
| Integrated RESET with trimmable delay | Eliminates discrete reset IC; 92.5% threshold + external TIMEOUT capacitor supports µC-specific timing |
| Load-dump robustness | +45V input tolerance and thermal/short-circuit protection ensure AEC-Q100 compliance in 12V/24V systems |
| Flexible output configuration | Single device supports 3.3V/5V fixed or 1.5V–11V adjustable via pin-strapping - reduces BOM variants |
| Thermally enhanced SO-EP package | Exposed pad lowers θJA to 53°C/W; enables 200mA operation at +125°C ambient without heatsink |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module (BCM) | Automotive Infotainment Power Rail |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Powering microcontroller, CAN transceiver, and sensor interface in door module with stop-start capability. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary 5V LDO supplying MCU core logic and wake-up circuitry; RESET asserts during cold-crank brownout.

Use Value: 92.5% RESET threshold ensures reliable release after power-up; SO-EP package meets thermal demands of enclosed dash environment. |
| Industrial Telematics Gateway | Railway Onboard Monitoring Unit |
Use Scenario: Powering LTE modem and GPS receiver in vehicle-to-cloud gateway operating across -40°C to +85°C. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Always-on 5V supply with watchdog-triggered RESET; ENABLE controlled by host MCU for power cycling. Use Value: +45V transient tolerance protects against ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a load dump; 1.6µA shutdown current preserves backup battery life. |
Use Scenario: Providing regulated 5V for microcontroller and isolated I/O in EN 50155-compliant train monitoring system. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary LDO with thermal shutdown and short-circuit protection for safety-critical subsystem. Use Value: -40°C to +125°C rating and AEC-Q100 qualification meet railway environmental stress requirements; 330mA short-circuit limit prevents latch-up. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar linear regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX16910EASA8/V+ | Same SO-EP package and specs, but 87.5% RESET threshold instead of 92.5% | Suitable where earlier reset assertion is needed (e.g., faster µC initialization after brownout) | Select MAX16910EASA8/V+ only if system requires lower reset threshold; otherwise MAX16910EASA9/V+ provides tighter margin before reset release. |
| TLE42754G | 5V fixed LDO; 150mA output; 40µA IQ; no integrated RESET; TO-252-5 package | Lacks RESET function and adjustable mode; requires external reset IC for full functionality | Choose TLE42754G only for cost-sensitive, non-RESET applications where 150mA suffices and thermal design accommodates TO-252 footprint. |
Compared with MAX16910EASA8/V+, the MAX16910EASA9/V+ offers higher reset threshold margin for cleaner power-up sequencing; compared with TLE42754G, it integrates RESET and supports higher current and flexible output configuration - reducing component count and board area in automotive modules.

FAQ
What output voltage does MAX16910EASA9/V+T deliver?
The MAX16910EASA9/V+T is configured for fixed 5V output, as indicated by the /V+9 suffix and SETOV = OUT pin-strapping per datasheet. It delivers 4.9V–5.1V across 1mA–200mA load and -40°C to +125°C, with line/load regulation ≤12mV. The device can also be reconfigured for 3.3V or adjustable output using different pin connections.
Does MAX16910EASA9/V+T include built-in RESET functionality?
Yes, MAX16910EASA9/V+T features an open-drain, active-low RESET output with factory-trimmed 92.5% threshold of VOUT (confirmed by /V+9 designation). RESET remains asserted for 60µs after VOUT exceeds threshold and can be extended using a capacitor on the TIMEOUT pin - eliminating need for external reset ICs.
What is the thermal performance of MAX16910EASA9/V+T in its SO-EP package?
MAX16910EASA9/V+T in the 8-pin SO-EP package has θJA = 53°C/W and θJC = 7°C/W. With exposed pad soldered to PCB ground plane, it dissipates up to 1.861W at +70°C ambient, derating 23.3mW/°C above that. At +125°C ambient, max power dissipation is ~600mW - sufficient for 200mA at 5V output with VIN ≤ 16V.
How does MAX16910EASA9/V+T handle automotive load-dump transients?
MAX16910EASA9/V+T withstands +45V transients on the IN pin for ≤400ms, meeting ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a requirements. Its internal protection - including thermal shutdown at +180°C and short-circuit current limiting to 330mA - ensures continued operation or safe shutdown during load-dump events without damage.
Is MAX16910EASA9/V+T qualified for automotive use?
Yes, MAX16910EASA9/V+T is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications, with operating temperature range -40°C to +125°C, guaranteed performance up to +150°C junction temperature, and production-tested reliability across automotive stress profiles - as documented in Analog Devices' MAX16910 datasheet Rev 9.
