Product details
Overview
The MAX6882ETE+ from Maxim Integrated is a dual-voltage power-supply sequencer/supervisor designed to control external n-channel MOSFETs for precise, capacitor-adjustable power-up sequencing of two system rails (OUT1 and OUT2). It features internal charge pumps boosting GATE1/GATE2 to IN1+5V/IN2+5V, 92.5% VTH_PG power-good assertion, and 100Ω internal pulldowns for fast fault discharge - used in multivoltage server and telecom power systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX6882ETE+ datasheet, MAX6882ETE+ pinout, MAX6882ETE+ application, or MAX6882ETE+ equivalent, this page delivers verified sequencing timing parameters, gate-drive voltage headroom, PG/RST timeout configurability, slew-rate control range (90–950 V/s), and confirmed dual-rail supervision architecture - all specific to the MAX6882ETE+ 16-pin thin QFN variant.
Technical Context
The MAX6882ETE+ implements a reference-ramp-based closed-loop sequencing controller that forces OUT1 and OUT2 to track a programmable internal ramp during power-up, with dynamic stop-and-wait behavior if either output lags by more than 125 mV. Its dual-channel architecture excludes IN3/SET3/GATE3/OUT3 pins entirely - confirmed by pin mapping and functional description.
Sequencing is initiated only when both SET1 and SET2 exceed 0.5 V (±12.5 mV over temperature), EN/UV exceeds 1.25 V, and at least one IN_ input is ≥2.7 V. Fault detection triggers simultaneous fast shutdown via 100Ω pulldowns and IGDS >20 mA gate sink current - independent of the MAX6880/MAX6881 triple-channel variants.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V - powers device from highest IN_ rail; enables operation across standard logic and core supply domains. |
| Power-Good Threshold | 92.5% of IN1/IN2 - ensures stable sequencing completion before asserting PG/RST; hysteresis = 0.5%. |
| GATE Drive Voltage | IN_ + 5 V - internal charge pump fully enhances external n-channel FETs, minimizing RDS(on) and conduction loss. |
| Slew Rate Range | 90 V/s to 950 V/s - set by 100 pF–1 nF capacitor on SLEW pin; directly controls inrush current (IINRUSH = COUT × SR). |
| Sequencing Delay | 200 µs base + 500 kΩ × CDELAY - configurable inter-rail timing; default delay requires no external capacitor. |
| PG/RST Timeout | 200 µs base + 500 kΩ × CTIMEOUT - delays PG high assertion after all outputs stabilize; supports reset timing coordination. |
| Operating Temperature | -40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and telecom equipment environments without derating. |
Pinout & Package
MAX6882ETE+ uses a 4 mm × 4 mm, 16-pin thin QFN package with exposed paddle (EP) connected to GND. Pin count and function mapping differ from MAX6880/MAX6881 (24-pin) and exclude all IN3/SET3/GATE3/OUT3 signals.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 8, 9, 10 | N.C. | No internal connection - unused pins; must be left floating or tied to GND per layout best practice. |
| 2 | ABP | Internal supply bypass - connect 1 µF ceramic cap to GND; maintains analog supply during rapid IN_ collapse. |
| 3, 4 | SET2, SET1 | Undervoltage threshold inputs - set IN2/IN1 UVLO thresholds via resistor dividers; 0.5 V internal reference. |
| 5 | EN/UV | Enable or external UVLO monitor - rising edge >1.25 V initiates sequencing; falling edge <1.22 V triggers tracking power-down. |
| 6 | GND | Ground reference - connects to EP; primary return path for internal charge pumps and pulldowns. |
| 7 | DELAY | Sequencing delay control - capacitor to GND sets time between OUT1 and OUT2 turn-on (min 200 µs). |
| 11 | SLEW | Slew-rate programming - capacitor to GND sets ramp speed (90–950 V/s) and fault timeout (tFAULT = 2.191×10⁸ × CSLEW). |
| 12 | TIMEOUT | PG/RST timeout control - capacitor to GND sets delay before PG high assertion after sequencing success. |
| 13 | MARGIN | Margin test enable - active-low input disables monitoring and PG/RST; allows safe voltage margining below SET thresholds. |
| 14 | PG/RST | Open-drain power-good/reset - asserts high tTIMEOUT after both OUT1/OUT2 exceed 92.5% of IN1/IN2. |
| 15, 16 | OUT2, OUT1 | Monitored output nodes - connect to sources of external n-channel FETs; 100 Ω pulldown activates on fault. |
| 17, 18 | GATE2, GATE1 | Gate drive outputs - charge-pumped to IN2+5 V / IN1+5 V; fully enhance low-RDS(on) FETs for minimal dropout. |
| 19, 20 | IN2, IN1 | Supply input rails - highest voltage powers device; each internally pulled down by 100 kΩ; ≥2.7 V required for operation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Capacitor-adjustable sequencing delay | Programmable 200 µs base + 500 kΩ × CDELAY - enables precise inter-rail timing without firmware or external timers. |
| Integrated charge-pump gate drivers | GATE1/GATE2 boosted to IN1+5 V / IN2+5 V - eliminates need for external high-side drivers or bootstrap circuits. |
| Configurable power-good timeout | tTIMEOUT = 200 µs + 500 kΩ × CTIMEOUT - decouples PG assertion from sequencing completion for robust system reset timing. |
| Dynamic ramp tracking with stop-and-wait | 125 mV tracking window (VTRK) - prevents sequencing failure when one rail lags; avoids false faults during slow-start supplies. |
| Fault-activated 100 Ω pulldown | Simultaneous 100 Ω discharge on OUT1/OUT2 - ensures rapid capacitive load discharge (<10 µs for 10 µF) during shutdown or fault. |
Applications
| Server Power Sequencing | Telecom Line Card Supply Control |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-voltage sequencing applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6883ETE+ | Identical pinout and package; lacks MARGIN input and ABP pin - simplified variant without margin-test capability. | Not suitable for production test or voltage-margining workflows requiring MARGIN functionality. | Select MAX6882ETE+ when margin testing, ABP bypass stability, or legacy design compatibility is required. |
| TPS65023RGZR | Triple-output PMIC with integrated DC/DC converters; no external FET gate drive; fixed 1.2 V/1.8 V/3.3 V outputs. | Replaces discrete regulator + sequencer combo; not compatible with custom voltage rails or external FETs. | Choose MAX6882ETE+ for flexible rail voltages, external FET selection, and high-current (>5 A) applications beyond PMIC limits. |
Compared with MAX6883ETE+, the MAX6882ETE+ adds MARGIN and ABP for enhanced testability and supply stability; compared with TPS65023RGZR, it provides full external FET control and arbitrary voltage sequencing - critical for high-efficiency, high-current, or non-standard rail configurations.

FAQ
What is the exact pin configuration difference between MAX6882ETE+ and MAX6880ETG+?
The MAX6882ETE+ uses a 16-pin thin QFN package with pins 1, 8–10, 11, and 12 assigned as N.C., ABP, SET2, SET1, EN/UV, GND, DELAY, SLEW, TIMEOUT, and MARGIN - omitting all IN3/SET3/GATE3/OUT3 signals present in the 24-pin MAX6880ETG+. This reflects its dual-channel-only architecture and confirmed pin mapping in the datasheet's ordering table and pin description section.
Does MAX6882ETE+ support three-rail sequencing like MAX6880ETG+?
No. The MAX6882ETE+ is explicitly a dual-voltage sequencer - it monitors and sequences only IN1/OUT1/GATE1 and IN2/OUT2/GATE2. The datasheet states "MAX6882/MAX6883 sequence two voltages" and confirms absence of IN3, SET3, GATE3, and OUT3 pins in its 16-pin pinout. Three-rail sequencing requires MAX6880ETG+ or MAX6881ETE+.
What is the minimum external capacitor value required on the SLEW pin for stable operation of MAX6882ETE+?
The MAX6882ETE+ requires CSLEW between 100 pF and 1 nF for valid slew-rate control and fault timeout setting. Below 100 pF, parasitic PCB capacitance dominates, causing inaccurate timing; above 1 nF, slew rates fall below 90 V/s and tFAULT exceeds practical limits. The datasheet specifies 100 pF < CSLEW < 1 nF as the validated operating range.
How does the MAX6882ETE+ handle power-down sequencing?
The MAX6882ETE+ performs simultaneous, tracking-based power-down - not reverse sequencing. When EN/UV falls below 1.22 V, OUT1 and OUT2 ramp down together following a common reference ramp. If either output leads by >125 mV, the ramp pauses until alignment; if deviation exceeds 250 mV, a fault triggers fast shutdown with 100 Ω pulldowns and GATEx forced low.
Is the PG/RST output of MAX6882ETE+ open-drain or push-pull?
The PG/RST output of MAX6882ETE+ is open-drain, as explicitly stated in the Pin Description section: "PG/RST - Power-Good Output, Open-Drain." It requires an external pull-up resistor to the desired logic rail (e.g., 3.3 V or 5 V) and sinks current when asserted low during fault or pre-sequence conditions.
