Product details
Overview
MAX6029EUK33+T from Maxim Integrated is a micropower, low-dropout series-mode voltage reference delivering 3.300V output with ±0.15% initial accuracy, 30ppm/°C max temperature coefficient, and ultra-low 7.25µA max supply current. It sources up to 4mA and sinks up to 1mA, operates from 3.5V to 12.6V input, and features 200mV dropout-ideal for precision ADC/DAC biasing in battery-powered instrumentation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6029EUK33+T datasheet, MAX6029EUK33+T pinout, MAX6029EUK33+T application, or MAX6029EUK33+T equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, SOT23-5 package details, load regulation (2.4–7 µV/µA), noise performance (174 µVRMS, 10Hz–1kHz), and real-world stability with capacitive loads up to 10µF-enabling rapid selection for low-power, high-accuracy analog systems.
Technical Context
The MAX6029EUK33+T uses a bandgap-based series architecture with internal compensation, eliminating external capacitors while maintaining stability across 0–10µF output capacitance. Its design targets ultra-low quiescent current (7.25µA max) without sacrificing precision: line regulation is 30–270 µV/V over 3.5V–12.6V input, and load regulation remains under 7 µV/µA across full sourcing/sinking range.
It achieves 3.300V nominal output via laser-trimmed resistive networks, with thermal hysteresis limited to 140ppm and long-term drift of 150ppm over 1000 hours. The device is specified across –40°C to +85°C and exhibits 38dB ripple rejection at 120Hz-critical for noisy supply environments in portable measurement gear.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
MAX6029EUK33+T is housed in a RoHS-compliant 5-pin SOT23 package (outline 21-0057), occupying 70% less PCB area than comparable SO-8 devices. Pin 1 = IN, Pin 2 = GND, Pins 3–4 = N.C., Pin 5 = OUT.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (IN) | Positive Supply Input | Accepts 3.5V–12.6V; no bypass capacitor required but 0.1µF ceramic improves transient response |
| 2 (GND) | Analog Ground Reference | Must be connected to clean system ground plane; shared return for load and reference paths |
| 3, 4 (N.C.) | No Connection | Internally unconnected; may be left floating or tied to GND for mechanical stability |
| 5 (OUT) | Precision Reference Output | Delivers stable 3.300V; drives capacitive loads up to 10µF when sourcing, up to 0.4µF when sinking |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage reference applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADR3433ARJZ-R7 | 3.3V output, 10ppm/°C max TC, 4.5µA supply current, but requires 1µF output capacitor for stability | Better TC and lower IQ, yet higher board area and layout sensitivity due to mandatory external cap | Prefer for ultra-low-drift lab-grade instruments where capacitor placement is controlled; avoid in space-constrained wearables |
| REF3333AIDBVR | 3.3V output, 30ppm/°C max TC, 5.7µA supply current, stable with 0.1–10µF loads, but only 2mA source capability | Lower IQ and same TC, but insufficient drive for 4mA ADC references or op-amp bias networks | Select when driving light loads (<2mA); not suitable for direct ADC VREF in high-speed or buffered designs |
Compared with ADR3433ARJZ-R7 and REF3333AIDBVR, MAX6029EUK33+T uniquely balances 4mA sourcing, capacitor-free stability, and SOT23-5 size-making it optimal for battery-powered systems needing both precision and robustness without layout overhead.

FAQ
What is the maximum load current the MAX6029EUK33+T can source and sink?
The MAX6029EUK33+T can source up to 4mA and sink up to 1mA of load current while maintaining output accuracy within specification. This capability allows it to directly drive ADC reference inputs, op-amp bias networks, and small logic interfaces without external buffering. Exceeding these limits risks increased dropout voltage and potential regulation loss, especially near the 3.5V minimum input voltage.
Does the MAX6029EUK33+T require an external output capacitor for stability?
No, the MAX6029EUK33+T does not require an external output capacitor for stability-it integrates internal compensation and is specified stable with capacitive loads from 0 to 10µF when sourcing current and 0 to 0.4µF when sinking. Adding a capacitor (e.g., 0.1–1µF) may improve transient response in high-dynamic-load applications, but it is never mandatory for basic operation.
What is the supply voltage range for the MAX6029EUK33+T?
The MAX6029EUK33+T operates from a supply voltage range of 3.5V to 12.6V. Its 200mV dropout voltage means it regulates 3.300V output down to 3.5V input-enabling compatibility with single-cell Li-ion batteries (nominal 3.6V, discharge to ~3.0V) when paired with a low-headroom LDO pre-regulator or used in systems with marginally higher supply rails.
How does the MAX6029EUK33+T perform in terms of output voltage temperature coefficient?
The MAX6029EUK33+T has a maximum temperature coefficient of 30ppm/°C over –40°C to +85°C. This translates to a worst-case output drift of ±1.26mV across its full operating range, supporting 12-bit accuracy without calibration. The coefficient is characterized using the box method and guaranteed by design-not production tested-but validated across process corners and temperature extremes.
Is the MAX6029EUK33+T RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes, the MAX6029EUK33+T is RoHS-compliant and lead-free, indicated by the "+T" suffix in its orderable part number. It meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1) and is qualified for reflow soldering per industry standards. The SOT23-5 package uses BiCMOS process technology and carries the "+" RoHS indicator per Maxim's package coding convention.
