MAX6736XKSDD3+T

The MAX6736XKSDD3+T is a highly integrated PMIC – Supervisors family that includes a low power system supervisor, a hardware diagnostics monitor, and a Real Time Clock (RTC). It combines a typical supervisor device with a comprehensive monitoring and diagnostic system tailored to the demands of modern digital home and wireless applications. The MAX6736XKSDD3+T provides multiple levels of hardware and software diagnostics, ensuring the highest reliability of today\'s most advanced home and wireless products. The MAX6736XKSDD3+T family of supervisors provides superior system level power management solutions with features including a watchdog timer, hardware diagnostics monitor, and a RTC. The device offers more flexibility in the design of complex system power management schemes by providing three interactive channels, each designed to monitor, control, and analyze system power.

The MAX6736XKSDD3+T is designed for applications that require monitoring, diagnostics, and control for various system supervision points, such as power-on reset and power supply monitoring. The MAX6736XKSDD3+T\'s on-chip supervision circuitry ensures that all power sources, including backup batteries and system power supplies, are reliable and functioning properly.

The MAX6736XKSDD3+T integrates two programmable voltage monitors and two programmable comparators. The voltage monitors detect and monitor system power sources as well as backup batteries. The programmable comparators are used to watch system-level signals such as power-on reset (POR) and system voltage levels. The device\'s dual channel voltage monitor provides two independent monitoring points with independent monitor settings. This allows the device to detect and report if any of two system power sources fail through two independent channels.

The MAX6736XKSDD3+T includes an active-low reset output that is asserted when either a monitored voltage is below its programmed threshold or when an input condition is not met. It also has an NRST output that triggers a system reset when an out-of-spec condition is detected. Two independent watchdog inputs provide flexible timing functions for monitoring application activities, which are essential for system reliability.

The MAX6736XKSDD3+T has an embedded RTC that is used to manage time-based functions, such as periodic wake-ups for various maintenance activities, system log-on and log-off operations, and clock-driven power management operations. The embedded RTC is an 8-bit binary counter with an interrupt and enable function. The MAX6736XKSDD3+T also includes advanced hardware and software diagnostic systems that enable developers to detect out-of-spec conditions before they cause system failure.

The MAX6736XKSDD3+T is ideal for use in many applications, including home sensing and control systems, such as home security, building automation, and energy monitoring. It can also be used in portable devices such as cellular phones, PDAs and digital cameras, as well as in wearable electronics like wrist watches and fitness monitors. In addition, the MAX6736XKSDD3+T is designed to provide reliable monitoring and control in industrial and embedded applications such as automotive control systems and industrial controllers.
