Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What defines a valid substitute for the MAX6160ESA+? A: A valid substitute must match all electrical parameters including reference type (Series), output type (Adjustable), voltage range (1.23V to 12.4V), output current (1 mA), tolerance (±1%), temperature coefficient (100 ppm/°C), input voltage range (2.7V to 12.6V), and package form factor (8-SOIC). Compliance certifications must remain equivalent.

Q: Is the MAX6160ESA+ suitable for my application? A: Compatibility depends on your circuit requirements for output voltage range, output current capacity, input supply voltage, operating temperature range, and PCB mounting constraints. Verify that your application requirements fall within the specified parameters.

Q: What is the significance of the 8-SOIC package? A: The 8-SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit) package is a surface mount form factor with 0.154 inches (3.90mm) width. This package type is standard for automated PCB assembly and requires compatible footprint design on the circuit board.

Q: Are there any supply chain considerations? A: The MAX6160ESA+ is in active production with 750 units currently in stock as new original components. ROHS3 compliance and MSL Level 1 classification support standard procurement and storage practices without special environmental controls.

Q: How does temperature coefficient affect circuit performance? A: The 100 ppm/°C temperature coefficient indicates the reference output voltage will drift by 100 parts per million for each degree Celsius change in operating temperature. This specification is critical for applications requiring stable voltage references across the -40°C to 85°C operating range.
