Overview
Description
MAX604ESA is a Maxim Integrated voltage regulator IC in the MAX604 family. It provides a stable output voltage to power digital and analog circuits (microprocessors, op-amps, sensors) with low quiescent current and good line/load regulation. The ESA suffix designates a specific package and lead-free/temperature option for the part (package type and temperature range vary by variant). The MAX604 family includes fixed and adjustable outputs, with protections such as current/short-circuit protection and thermal shutdown (exact features depend on the variant). Typical use involves selecting the appropriate fixed-output MAX604ESA part (or an adjustable version with a resistor divider), ensuring the input is within the recommended range, and placing recommended input/output capacitors per the datasheet. For exact electrical specs, pinout, and packaging, consult the latest MAX604 datasheet and package guide, as suffixes like ESA denote voltage, package, and temp-range differences.
Features
The MAX604ESA is a fixed-output precision voltage reference from Maxim Integrated. Typical features (varies by exact variant) include:
- Fixed reference voltage (per device variant) with high initial accuracy
- Low temperature drift (low tempco) for stable output across temperature
- Low output noise for clean reference signal
- Low quiescent current and low power consumption
- Good line and load regulation
- Wide operating input range and robust performance over the industrial temperature range
- Short-circuit/overcurrent protection and thermal shutdown for protection
- Small package options suitable for compact designs (ESA variant indicates a specific package/temperature option)
- Suitable for ADC/DAC references, precision regulation, and measurement/state-reference duties
Note: Exact voltage value, accuracy, tempco, noise, input/output ranges, and package details are part-specific. Please consult the MAX604ESA datasheet for the precise specifications.
