Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MAX710ESE is determined by strict alignment across the following critical parameters:

• Topology & Function: Buck, Boost switching regulator with step-up and step-down capability
• Output Configuration: Positive fixed output
• Voltage Specifications: Input range 1.8V to 11V; fixed output voltages of 3.3V or 5V
• Current Rating: 1.1A switch current output
• Package: 16-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width) surface mount
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to 85°C
• Electrical Characteristics: Single output, no synchronous rectifier

The MAX710ESE+ qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical specifications, package form factor, and thermal operating range. The primary distinction lies in product status and compliance certifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX710ESE+ is the direct substitute for the MAX710ESE. Both devices share identical electrical specifications, package geometry, and thermal operating characteristics, ensuring pin-for-pin and functional compatibility.

The MAX710ESE+ offers the advantage of active product status with ROHS3 compliance, addressing regulatory requirements for new designs and long-term supply chain sustainability. The MAX710ESE, classified as obsolete, presents supply continuity risks and does not meet current RoHS3 standards.

For applications requiring the MAX710ESE, transition to the MAX710ESE+ is recommended to ensure compliance with modern environmental regulations and access to ongoing manufacturer support.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MAX710ESE+ be used as a direct replacement for the MAX710ESE?

A: Yes. The MAX710ESE+ is electrically and mechanically identical to the MAX710ESE. Both devices feature the same 16-SOIC package, input/output voltage specifications, current rating, and operating temperature range. No circuit modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What is the primary difference between these two part numbers?

A: The MAX710ESE is obsolete, while the MAX710ESE+ maintains active product status. The MAX710ESE+ also meets ROHS3 compliance standards, whereas the MAX710ESE is RoHS non-compliant. Electrical performance and package form factor are identical.

Q: Are there any package or pinout differences?

A: No. Both the MAX710ESE and MAX710ESE+ use the 16-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width) surface mount package with identical pinout and mechanical dimensions.

Q: What output voltage options are available?

A: Both devices support fixed output voltages of 3.3V or 5V. The specific output voltage is determined by device configuration and is not selectable post-manufacture.

Q: What is the maximum input voltage range?

A: Both devices accept input voltages from 1.8V to 11V, supporting a wide range of power source configurations including battery and regulated supply applications.

Q: Is the MAX710ESE+ suitable for new designs?

A: Yes. The MAX710ESE+ is the recommended choice for new designs due to its active product status, ROHS3 compliance, and ongoing manufacturer support. The MAX710ESE should not be specified for new applications.
