Product details
Overview
MAX1976EZT110+ from Maxim Integrated is a low-dropout linear regulator (LDO) delivering 300mA continuous output current with 100mV dropout at full load, preset to 1.10V output voltage, and featuring an active-low open-drain RESET output with 70ms delay. It operates from 1.62V to 3.6V input and is optimized for space-constrained, battery-powered systems such as notebook computers and cellular handsets.
For engineers reviewing the MAX1976EZT110+ datasheet, MAX1976EZT110+ pinout, MAX1976EZT110+ application, or MAX1976EZT110+ equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 300mA output under low-input-voltage conditions (≥1.62V), ±0.5% output accuracy over load/line/temperature, thermal and short-circuit protection, and compatibility with 1µF input / 4.7µF output ceramic capacitors for stable operation.
Technical Context
The MAX1976EZT110+ employs an internal P-channel MOSFET pass transistor (RDS(ON) = 0.33Ω) enabling supply current independence from load and dropout voltage - critical for battery runtime consistency. Its error amplifier compares a trimmed bandgap reference against feedback from the internally set 1.10V output, driving the pass gate to maintain regulation.
RESET functionality is implemented via a dedicated comparator monitoring VOUT; it asserts low when output falls below 82.5% of nominal (±2.5% threshold accuracy) and remains asserted for ≥70ms after recovery. Shutdown is logic-controlled (active-low SHDN), reducing quiescent current to <1µA while pulling OUT to GND via a 1.5kΩ internal resistor.

Pinout & Package
MAX1976EZT110+ is packaged in a RoHS-compliant 6-pin thin SOT23-6 (package code Z6+1), height <1.1mm, footprint 2.9mm × 1.6mm. Pin 1 is IN; Pin 2 is GND; Pin 3 is SHDN; Pin 4 is RESET; Pin 5 is I.C. (internally connected, leave floating or tie to GND); Pin 6 is OUT.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN) | Regulator input supply | Accepts 1.62V–3.6V; requires ≥1µF ceramic bypass to GND for stability |
| 2 (GND) | Power and signal ground | Serves as thermal path; must connect to large PCB copper area for power dissipation |
| 3 (SHDN) | Active-low shutdown control | Logic low (<0.6V) disables regulator and reduces IQ to <1µA |
| 4 (RESET) | Open-drain reset flag output | Asserts low during power-up/brownout; rises 70ms after VOUT stabilizes |
| 5 (I.C.) | Internally connected node | No external connection required; may be left floating or tied to GND |
| 6 (OUT) | Regulated output | Delivers up to 300mA; requires 4.7µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor to GND |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX1963EZT110+ | Same package and pinout; RESET delay = 2.2ms (vs. 70ms) | Targeted at systems requiring faster reset assertion (e.g., real-time microcontrollers) | Select MAX1963EZT110+ only if shorter reset timeout is required; not drop-in compatible due to timing divergence. |
| Torex XC6219B112MR-G | 1.1V output, 300mA, SOT-25 package (5-pin); no RESET output | Lacks integrated reset function; requires external supervisor IC for power sequencing | Choose when RESET is unnecessary and board space permits separate supervision; lower cost but higher total solution complexity. |
Compared with MAX1963EZT110+, the MAX1976EZT110+ provides longer reset hold time for robust boot reliability, while the XC6219B112MR-G offers cost savings at the expense of missing integrated reset - requiring additional components and PCB area for equivalent functionality.

FAQ
What is the exact output voltage of the MAX1976EZT110+?
The MAX1976EZT110+ has a factory-trimmed, fixed output voltage of 1.10V. This value is laser-adjusted during production and does not require external resistors. The device maintains ±0.5% accuracy at +25°C and ±2.5% over the full operating temperature range (-40°C to +85°C), as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table of the MAX1976 datasheet. No configuration or external components are needed to achieve this output.
Does the MAX1976EZT110+ require external capacitors, and what values are recommended?
Yes, the MAX1976EZT110+ requires two external ceramic capacitors for stable operation: a 1µF capacitor between IN and GND, and a 4.7µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor between OUT and GND. These values are validated across temperature and load conditions per the datasheet. Using capacitors with ESR ≤30mΩ ensures stability and optimal transient response. Placement must be adjacent to the IC pins to minimize trace inductance - deviation risks oscillation or degraded load-step performance.
How does the RESET output of the MAX1976EZT110+ behave during power-up and fault conditions?
The RESET output of the MAX1976EZT110+ is an active-low, open-drain signal that remains asserted (low) until the output voltage reaches regulation and stays within tolerance. After VOUT stabilizes, RESET deasserts after a guaranteed minimum delay of 70ms. If VOUT drops below 82.5% of nominal (e.g., due to overload or input collapse), RESET immediately reasserts. During SHDN activation, RESET is also actively pulled low - ensuring deterministic reset behavior across all failure modes.
Is the MAX1976EZT110+ pin-compatible with other devices in the MAX1963/MAX1976 family?
Yes, the MAX1976EZT110+ shares identical pinout and package (6-pin thin SOT23-6) with all MAX1963 and MAX1976 variants, including MAX1963EZT110+. However, functional differences exist - notably the RESET delay (70ms for MAX1976 vs. 2.2ms for MAX1963). While PCB layout is interchangeable, direct substitution without firmware or timing validation is not recommended due to this critical timing divergence in power-on reset sequencing.
What thermal protection features does the MAX1976EZT110+ include, and how do they operate?
The MAX1976EZT110+ integrates thermal-overload protection that disables the pass transistor when junction temperature exceeds +165°C. Once triggered, the device remains off until the die cools by 15°C (hysteresis), then resumes regulation - resulting in pulsed output under sustained overload. This safeguard prevents permanent damage during soldering faults, excessive ambient temperature, or inadequate heatsinking. The exposed pad in TDFN variants enhances thermal conduction, but the MAX1976EZT110+ (SOT23) relies on PCB copper area connected to Pin 2 (GND) for effective heat dissipation.
