Product details
Overview
The MAX1976EZT110+T from Maxim Integrated is a low-dropout linear regulator delivering 300mA continuous output current with ±0.5% output voltage accuracy, 100mV dropout at full load, and a fixed 1.10V output voltage. It operates from a 1.62V–3.6V input supply and features an active-low open-drain RESET output with 70ms delay, making it suitable for power sequencing in portable battery-powered systems such as notebook computers and handheld devices.
For engineers reviewing the MAX1976EZT110+T datasheet, MAX1976EZT110+T pinout, MAX1976EZT110+T application, or MAX1976EZT110+T equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed 300mA load capability under low-input-voltage conditions (≥1.62V), precise 1.10V output tolerance, thermal-overload and short-circuit protection, and compatibility with standard 6-pin thin SOT23 PCB footprints.
Technical Context
The MAX1976EZT110+T integrates a P-channel MOSFET pass transistor (RDS(ON) = 0.33Ω) enabling low quiescent current (90µA typ) independent of load and dropout voltage. Its internal feedback network sets a fixed 1.10V output without external resistors, and its power-good comparator drives an open-drain RESET output that asserts when VOUT falls below 82.5% of nominal and remains asserted for ≥70ms after regulation is achieved.
Designed for battery-powered applications, the device includes logic-controlled shutdown (ISHDN ≤ 5nA at +85°C), undervoltage lockout (VUVLO = 1.30–1.60V), and thermal shutdown at +165°C with 15°C hysteresis. The 6-pin thin SOT23 package (Z6-1/Z6+1) supports compact layouts while maintaining thermal performance via GND pin and exposed pad (in TDFN variants) - though this specific variant uses only the SOT23 footprint.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 1.10V ±0.5% over load/line/temp - eliminates need for external feedback resistors and ensures stable core voltage for low-power microcontrollers. |
| Max Output Current | 300mA continuous - sufficient to power baseband processors, RF transceivers, or memory subsystems in portable electronics. |
| Dropout Voltage | 100mV at 300mA load - enables operation down to 1.21V input, extending usable battery life in single-cell Li-ion or Li-poly systems. |
| Input Voltage Range | 1.62V to 3.6V - compatible with partially discharged batteries and multi-rail power domains in space-constrained designs. |
| RESET Delay | 70ms (min) after VOUT reaches regulation - provides reliable power-on reset timing for embedded microcontrollers without external RC networks. |
| Quiescent Current | 90µA typical at full load - maintains ultra-low standby power even during heavy output current, critical for always-on system functions. |
| Shutdown Current | ≤1µA at +85°C - ensures minimal battery drain during deep-sleep modes in portable equipment. |
Pinout & Package
MAX1976EZT110+T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 6-pin thin SOT23 package (Z6+1), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm × 1.1mm max height, with GND-connected thermal pad on the bottom surface for enhanced heat dissipation. Pin 1 is marked by a dot or bevelled edge.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN) | Regulator Input | Accepts 1.62V–3.6V supply; requires ≥1µF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND for stability and noise suppression. |
| 2 (GND) | Ground Reference & Thermal Path | Primary ground return and thermal conduction path; must connect to large PCB copper area for thermal management. |
| 3 (SHDN) | Active-Low Shutdown Control | Logic-low (<0.6V) disables regulator and reduces supply current to <1µA; pulled high internally when unused. |
| 4 (RESET) | Open-Drain Reset Flag | Asserts low when VOUT drops below 82.5% of 1.10V; releases high ≥70ms after VOUT stabilizes - directly interfaces with µP reset inputs. |
| 5 (I.C.) | Internally Connected | No external connection required; leave floating or tie to GND per layout best practices. |
| 6 (OUT) | Regulated Output | Delivers up to 300mA at 1.10V; requires ≥4.7µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor to GND for transient response and PSRR optimization. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| P-channel MOSFET pass element | Eliminates base-drive current loss, enabling 90µA quiescent current independent of load and dropout - ideal for battery runtime extension. |
| Fixed 1.10V output with ±0.5% accuracy | Guaranteed across -40°C to +85°C, 1mA–300mA load, and 1.62V–3.6V input - ensures reliable operation of 1.1V-core digital ICs without calibration. |
| 70ms RESET assertion delay | Provides deterministic power-on reset timing for microcontrollers, eliminating need for external reset ICs or RC timing circuits. |
| Thermal-overload and short-circuit protection | Shuts down pass transistor at +165°C junction temperature and cycles output during sustained overload - prevents permanent damage in fault conditions. |
| Logic-compatible shutdown input | Accepts standard CMOS logic levels (VIH ≥1.4V, VIL ≤0.6V) and draws ≤5nA bias current - compatible with low-power GPIOs without level-shifting. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LDO regulator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS7A0511PDBVR | Fixed 1.1V output, 200mA max, 170mV dropout at 200mA, 1.4V min input, 25µA IQ | Lower current rating and higher dropout limit device use in lower-power wearables or sensor nodes only. | Select when 200mA suffices and ultra-low IQ (25µA) outweighs need for 300mA headroom. |
| MCP1826-1102E/DB | Fixed 1.1V output, 300mA max, 350mV dropout at 300mA, 2.3V min input, 120µA IQ | Higher minimum input voltage restricts use to systems with ≥2.3V supply rails, excluding single-cell Li-ion below 2.3V. | Choose when board-level thermal design accommodates higher dropout and input supply is ≥2.3V (e.g., 3.3V intermediate rail). |
Compared with TPS7A0511PDBVR and MCP1826-1102E/DB, the MAX1976EZT110+T uniquely supports 300mA delivery from as low as 1.62V input with only 100mV dropout - enabling longer runtime in single-cell battery systems where input voltage sags below 2.3V.

FAQ
What is the output voltage tolerance of the MAX1976EZT110+T over temperature and load?
The MAX1976EZT110+T guarantees ±0.5% output voltage accuracy across -40°C to +85°C ambient temperature, 1mA to 300mA load current, and 1.62V to 3.6V input voltage. This specification is verified in production testing and reflects the trimmed internal reference and error amplifier performance - ensuring reliable 1.10V operation for sensitive digital loads without external calibration.
Does the MAX1976EZT110+T require external capacitors, and what values are recommended?
Yes, the MAX1976EZT110+T requires a 1µF ceramic capacitor between IN and GND, and a 4.7µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor between OUT and GND. These values ensure stability across the full operating range and support transient response for 300mA load steps. Using capacitors outside these recommendations - especially higher ESR or smaller values - may cause oscillation or degraded PSRR performance in the MAX1976EZT110+T.
How does the RESET output of the MAX1976EZT110+T behave during power-up and brownout?
The RESET output of the MAX1976EZT110+T is an active-low open-drain signal that remains asserted (low) until the output voltage reaches ≥82.5% of 1.10V and stays regulated for ≥70ms. If VOUT drops below that threshold during operation - due to input sag or overload - RESET immediately pulls low again. This behavior ensures robust microprocessor reset signaling during both startup and brownout events in the MAX1976EZT110+T.
Can the MAX1976EZT110+T be used in place of the MAX1963EZT110+T?
No - although pin-compatible and functionally similar, the MAX1976EZT110+T has a 70ms RESET delay versus the MAX1963EZT110+T's 2.2ms delay. Substituting them without verifying system reset timing requirements may cause boot failures or firmware initialization errors. The MAX1976EZT110+T is not a drop-in replacement for the MAX1963EZT110+T in time-critical reset applications.
What thermal considerations apply to the MAX1976EZT110+T in the thin SOT23 package?
In the thin SOT23 package, the MAX1976EZT110+T relies on PCB copper area connected to Pin 2 (GND) for heat dissipation. At +70°C ambient, its maximum power dissipation is 727mW, limiting sustainable 300mA operation to VIN–VOUT ≤ 2.4V. For higher differentials or continuous 300mA loads, thermal derating or forced airflow is required - unlike the TDFN variant, which supports higher power due to its exposed paddle.
