Product details
Overview
MAX1793EUE33/V+ from Maxim Integrated is a low-dropout linear regulator (LDO) with pMOS pass transistor, delivering 1A output current at ±1% accuracy with 210mV dropout at full load and 125µA ground current - designed for power-sensitive portable systems requiring stable 3.3V rail generation from 2.5V–5.5V inputs.
For engineers reviewing the MAX1793EUE33/V+ datasheet, MAX1793EUE33/V+ pinout, MAX1793EUE33/V+ application, or MAX1793EUE33/V+ equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 1A output under dropout, integrated 4ms reset output, Dual Mode™ voltage selection (preset 3.3V or adjustable), thermal-overload protection, and TSSOP-EP package compatibility with high-density PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The MAX1793EUE33/V+ implements a +1.25V internal reference and error amplifier driving a p-channel MOSFET pass device - eliminating base-drive current and enabling ultra-low quiescent operation (125µA at light load, ≤225µA in dropout). Its Dual Mode™ comparator selects between internal fixed feedback (SET = GND) and external resistor-divider (SET = 1.25V × [1 + R1/R2]) based on VSET < 50mV threshold.
It integrates a low-VOUT detector that asserts open-drain RST when output falls 6% below nominal (i.e., <3.09V for 3.3V mode), holding low for ≥4ms after recovery; shutdown disables regulation and reduces supply current to 0.1µA while pulling OUT low via 5kΩ internal resistance and forcing RST low.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Preset 3.3V ±1% (at IOUT = 1mA–1A, TA = 0°C to +85°C); adjustable 1.25V–5.0V via external divider |
| Dropout Voltage | 210mV typical at 1A (VIN ≥ 3.8V); enables operation down to 3.51V input for regulated 3.3V output |
| Ground Current | 125µA typical at 100µA load; ensures >1000-hour battery life in always-on 3.3V sensor nodes |
| Reset Output Delay | 4ms minimum assertion time after VOUT recovers; provides reliable power-on-reset timing for microcontrollers |
| Output Noise | 115µVRMS (10Hz–1MHz); suitable for noise-sensitive analog circuitry without additional filtering |
| Thermal Shutdown | Activates at TJ = +170°C with ~20°C hysteresis; prevents permanent damage during sustained overload or poor heatsinking |
| Short-Circuit Protection | Limits output to 1.1–3.3A depending on condition; allows indefinite short-circuit survival without latch-off |
Pinout & Package
MAX1793EUE33/V+ uses a 16-pin thermally enhanced TSSOP-EP package (1.5W power rating, 1.1mm height, 30% smaller than SOT223) with exposed pad (EP) soldered to PCB ground plane for optimal thermal dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 8, 9, 16 | N.C. | No internal connection; must remain unconnected per design |
| 2–5 | IN | Input supply (2.5V–5.5V); all four pins internally tied and require external parallel connection to bulk capacitor |
| 6 | RST | Open-drain reset output; sinks current when VOUT < 3.09V; requires external 100kΩ pull-up to OUT or logic rail |
| 7 | SHDN | Active-low shutdown control; pulls OUT low via 5kΩ and forces RST low when asserted |
| 10 | GND | Power and signal ground; also functions as thermal path; must be connected to large copper area |
| 11 | SET | Voltage-setting input; <50mV selects preset 3.3V mode; 1.25V reference point for adjustable configuration |
| 12–15 | OUT | Regulated 3.3V output; all four pins internally tied and must be externally joined at low-inductance point near COUT |
| EP | Exposed Pad | Thermal and electrical ground; mandatory connection to PCB ground plane via multiple vias for thermal reliability |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual Mode™ voltage selection | Enables seamless transition between factory-trimmed 3.3V output and user-adjustable 1.25V–5.0V range using same footprint |
| 1A guaranteed output with pMOS pass device | Eliminates base-drive losses; maintains regulation under heavy load without quiescent current penalty |
| Integrated 4ms reset timer | Provides deterministic POR signal timing independent of external RC networks or microcontroller firmware delays |
| Thermal-overload and short-circuit protection | Allows safe operation in fault conditions without external current-sense or thermal shutdown circuitry |
| TSSOP-EP package with exposed thermal pad | Reduces θJA by up to 35% vs standard TSSOP; supports 1.5W continuous dissipation with proper PCB layout |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS7A4700RGWR | Lower noise (4.7µVRMS), higher PSRR (>70dB @ 1kHz), but 500mA max output and 3.3V not factory-preset | Better suited for ultra-low-noise analog signal chains; requires external resistors for 3.3V setup | Select when noise performance dominates over output current capability and preset convenience |
| MCP1826T-3302E/DB | Same 3.3V preset, 1A output, but higher 350mV dropout and no RST output or Dual Mode™ adjustability | Acceptable for cost-sensitive non-critical digital rails where reset signaling is handled elsewhere | Select when reset functionality and adjustable mode are unnecessary and lower BOM count is prioritized |
Compared with TPS7A4700RGWR and MCP1826T-3302E/DB, MAX1793EUE33/V+ uniquely combines automotive-qualified 3.3V preset operation, integrated reset timing, Dual Mode™ flexibility, and 210mV dropout - making it optimal for space-constrained portable systems requiring both reliability and design adaptability.

FAQ
What is the maximum input voltage supported by the MAX1793EUE33/V+?
The MAX1793EUE33/V+ supports an absolute maximum input voltage of +6V relative to GND, with recommended operating range from +2.5V to +5.5V. Operation above +5.5V risks permanent damage, and input undervoltage lockout activates below +2.0V to prevent unstable regulation. The device is rated for continuous operation across –40°C to +85°C ambient temperature.
Does the MAX1793EUE33/V+ require external capacitors, and what values are recommended?
Yes, the MAX1793EUE33/V+ requires external capacitors for stability and performance: a 4.7µF input capacitor (CIN) between IN and GND, and a 6.8µF output capacitor (COUT) between OUT and GND. COUT must have ESR ≤ 0.5Ω - ceramic, low-ESR tantalum, or OS-CON types are acceptable. Both capacitors must be placed as close as possible to their respective pins to minimize trace inductance.
How does the RST output function on the MAX1793EUE33/V+?
The RST output on the MAX1793EUE33/V+ is an open-drain signal that goes low when VOUT falls below 94% of nominal (≤3.09V for 3.3V mode) and remains low for at least 4ms after VOUT recovers. It is pulled low during shutdown and requires an external 100kΩ pull-up resistor to OUT or another logic rail. This provides a precise, hardware-based power-on-reset signal for microcontrollers or FPGA configuration logic.
Can the MAX1793EUE33/V+ be used in adjustable-output configurations?
Yes, the MAX1793EUE33/V+ supports adjustable-output operation via its SET pin. By connecting an external resistor divider between OUT and GND with the junction to SET, the output can be set from 1.25V to 5.0V using VOUT = 1.25V × (1 + R1/R2). The SET pin bias current is ±100nA, allowing high-value resistors (up to 125kΩ for R2) to minimize power loss while maintaining accuracy.
What thermal management considerations apply to the MAX1793EUE33/V+ in high-power applications?
The MAX1793EUE33/V+ uses a TSSOP-EP package with an exposed thermal pad (EP) that must be soldered to the PCB ground plane using multiple vias and a minimum 1in² copper area. GND pin 10 also serves as a thermal path. Without proper heatsinking, power dissipation is limited to 1.5W at +70°C ambient; derating is 19mW/°C above that. Junction temperature must not exceed +150°C for continuous operation.
