Product details
Overview
MAX1833EUT+T from Maxim Integrated is a high-efficiency, fixed-output 3.3V step-up DC-DC converter with reverse battery protection, synchronous rectification, and RST power-on reset output. It operates from +1.5V to +5.5V input, delivers up to 150mA load current, and features 4μA quiescent current - ideal for battery-powered medical diagnostics and remote wireless transmitters.
For engineers reviewing the MAX1833EUT+T datasheet, MAX1833EUT+T pinout, MAX1833EUT+T application, or MAX1833EUT+T equivalent, key selection criteria include its SOT23-6 package, 3.3V ±1.2% output accuracy over temperature, shutdown-mode battery-to-output connection for backup power, and integrated RST open-drain reset signal with 2.98V falling-edge threshold.
Technical Context
The MAX1833EUT+T uses a current-limited, oscillator-free control scheme with programmable on-time (3.5–6.5µs) and zero-crossing detection to regulate output voltage without external timing components. Its internal N-channel switch (0.4Ω typ) and P-channel synchronous rectifier eliminate external diodes while enabling >90% efficiency at 40mA load with 2V input.
Reverse battery protection is implemented via a proprietary N-channel MOSFET gate control that disconnects BATT from LX and OUT when input polarity is inverted - protecting both IC and downstream circuitry. In shutdown, the internal PFET connects BATT directly to OUT through the inductor, providing low-dropout backup power without external diodes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±1.2% over -40°C to +85°C - ensures stable supply for 3.3V logic and sensors without feedback resistors. |
| Input Voltage Range | +1.5V to +5.5V - supports single Li+ cell, two alkaline/NiMH cells, or regulated intermediate rails. |
| Max Output Current | 150mA at VBATT = +2V - sufficient for microcontrollers, RF transceivers, and small displays in portable devices. |
| Quiescent Current | 4μA typical - minimizes battery drain during light-load operation in always-on monitoring systems. |
| Shutdown Current | <1μA into BATT - enables multi-year battery life in low-duty-cycle applications like remote sensors. |
| RST Threshold | 2.98V (falling edge, ±0.14V over temp) - provides reliable power-on reset for 3.3V systems before brownout. |
| SHDN Threshold | 1.228V rising edge - allows precise low-battery cutoff using simple resistor divider without external supervisor. |
Pinout & Package
MAX1833EUT+T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 6-pin SOT23-6 package (3.0mm × 1.7mm × 1.3mm), optimized for space-constrained portable designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - SHDN | Active-high enable with voltage threshold | Logic input with 1.228V rising-edge trip; connects BATT to OUT in shutdown for backup power; reverse-battery protected. |
| 2 - BATT | Battery input with reverse polarity protection | Accepts +1.5V to +5.5V; internal N-MOSFET blocks current if connected backward; rated to -6V absolute max. |
| 3 - GND | Power and signal reference ground | Common return path for all internal circuits; must be tied directly to PCB ground plane per layout guidelines. |
| 4 - LX | Switch node for external inductor | Drain of internal N-MOSFET and P-MOSFET; connects to inductor; reverse-battery protected; handles 1A peak current. |
| 5 - OUT | Regulated 3.3V output and bootstrap supply | Delivers up to 150mA; powers internal circuitry; serves as RST pullup source; connects to BATT in shutdown mode. |
| 6 - RST | Open-drain power-on reset output | Pulls low when VOUT falls 10% below regulation (≤2.97V); high-impedance in shutdown; requires external pullup to OUT. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated synchronous rectifier | Eliminates external Schottky diode, reducing board area by ~2mm² and improving efficiency to >90% at 40mA. |
| Reverse battery protection | Proprietary N-MOSFET gate control blocks reverse current at BATT, LX, and SHDN pins - no external FETs or diodes required. |
| BATT-to-OUT connection in shutdown | Internal PFET enables direct battery backup for RTC or SRAM without forward-voltage drop - extends system uptime. |
| Power-on reset (RST) output | Open-drain signal with accurate 2.98V falling-edge threshold - simplifies system-level reset sequencing for 3.3V microcontrollers. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 4μA typical supply current - preserves battery capacity in intermittently active devices like handheld instruments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar step-up converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS61200DRCR | Fixed 3.3V output, 3.3V ±2% tolerance, 350mA max output, no RST pin, no reverse battery protection. | Lacks reverse polarity protection and power-on reset - requires external supervision circuitry for safety-critical use. | Select when higher output current is needed and reverse protection is handled externally; not drop-in for MAX1833EUT+T. |
| LT1945EMS8#TRPBF | Adjustable output (1.25V–15V), 200mA max, no RST, no reverse battery protection, 12V abs max on LX. | Requires external feedback resistors and reverse-protection FETs; unsuitable for direct replacement where reverse protection is mandatory. | Choose for variable-output designs where MAX1833EUT+T's fixed 3.3V and integrated protection are unnecessary. |
Compared with TPS61200DRCR and LT1945EMS8#TRPBF, MAX1833EUT+T uniquely combines reverse battery protection, RST output, and ultra-low shutdown current in a 6-pin SOT23 - eliminating external components required by alternatives for safe, compact, and long-life battery operation.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the MAX1833EUT+T over temperature?
The MAX1833EUT+T delivers a fixed 3.3V output with ±1.2% tolerance across the full -40°C to +85°C operating range. At +25°C, the typical output is 3.290V, with min/max limits of 3.225V and 3.355V respectively - ensuring compatibility with 3.3V logic families without external trimming.
Does the MAX1833EUT+T provide reverse battery protection on all pins?
Yes, the MAX1833EUT+T provides reverse battery protection on BATT, LX, SHDN, and OUT pins - blocking current flow when input polarity is inverted. This proprietary feature protects both the IC and downstream circuitry without external components, unlike most competing boost converters.
How does the RST pin on the MAX1833EUT+T function in shutdown mode?
In shutdown mode, the RST pin of the MAX1833EUT+T is placed in high-impedance state and does not drive any signal. It only becomes active (pulling low) when the device is enabled and VOUT drops below 2.97V (10% below nominal 3.3V), making it suitable for power-on reset but not for shutdown monitoring.
Can the MAX1833EUT+T be used with a single 1.5V alkaline cell?
No - the MAX1833EUT+T requires a minimum input voltage of +1.5V to operate, but its startup voltage is 1.22V at +25°C and 1.24V over temperature. A fresh 1.5V alkaline cell may start the device, but performance degrades rapidly as voltage drops; two alkaline cells (+3.0V nominal) are recommended for reliable operation.
What is the maximum continuous output current of the MAX1833EUT+T at 2.0V input?
At +2.0V input and +3.3V output, the MAX1833EUT+T delivers up to 150mA of continuous load current - verified across -40°C to +85°C. This value assumes proper layout, 10µH inductor, and 10µF ceramic output capacitor; derating applies above +70°C ambient due to thermal limits.
