MAX1776EUA-T Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MAX1776EUA-T is a buck switching regulator IC from Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated, designed for positive adjustable/fixed output voltage regulation. This device operates as a step-down converter with a single output capable of delivering 600mA at adjustable or fixed voltage levels between 1.25V and 5V, with input voltage range from 4.5V to 24V. The part is classified as obsolete, making identification of equivalent and substitute components essential for ongoing system support, design updates, and procurement continuity.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MAX1776EUA-T is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Input voltage range: 4.5V to 24V
• Output voltage capability: 1.25V to 24V adjustable/fixed
• Output current: 600mA
• Switching frequency: 200kHz
• Topology: Buck (step-down)
• Output configuration: Single positive output
• Package: 8-TSSOP, 8-MSOP (0.118", 3.00mm Width)
• Mounting: Surface mount
• Operating temperature range: -40°C to 85°C

The substitute part must match all electrical specifications and physical package requirements to ensure functional and mechanical compatibility without circuit redesign.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX1776EUA+T is a direct substitute for the MAX1776EUA-T. Both parts are manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated and share identical electrical specifications and package configurations. The primary distinction is product status: the MAX1776EUA-T is obsolete, while the MAX1776EUA+T is active and currently in production.

For new designs or system updates requiring the MAX1776 buck regulator functionality, the MAX1776EUA+T is the appropriate selection due to its active status and ongoing availability. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment. The packaging difference (Cut Tape and Digi-Reel for the substitute) reflects standard distribution formats and does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX1776EUA+T directly replace MAX1776EUA-T without circuit modification?

A: Yes. Both parts are electrically and mechanically identical across all specified parameters. Direct substitution is possible without circuit redesign or PCB layout changes.

Q: What is the difference between MAX1776EUA-T and MAX1776EUA+T?

A: The parts are functionally equivalent. The difference lies in product status (obsolete vs. active) and packaging format (standard vs. Cut Tape/Digi-Reel). The electrical specifications and pinout are identical.

Q: Why is MAX1776EUA-T marked as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence indicates the part is no longer in active production. The MAX1776EUA+T represents the current active equivalent from the same manufacturer.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical RoHS3 compliance, REACH unaffected status, and moisture sensitivity levels.

Q: What packaging options are available for the substitute part?

A: The MAX1776EUA+T is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel formats, which are standard distribution methods for surface mount components in the 8-uMAX/uSOP package.

Q: Can the MAX1776 be used in applications requiring output currents above 600mA?

A: No. The specified output current rating is 600mA. Applications requiring higher current delivery require alternative regulator ICs with higher current specifications.
