MAX792LCSE Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MAX792LCSE is a supervisor integrated circuit from Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated designed for power management applications. This device functions as a simple reset/power-on reset supervisor with push-pull output configuration, monitoring a single voltage threshold at 4.62V. The MAX792LCSE is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of equivalent substitute components for ongoing design support and procurement requirements. Active alternatives with identical electrical and mechanical specifications are available to ensure continuity in system design and manufacturing.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the MAX792LCSE are identified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter matching. The substitution criteria are:

• Identical voltage threshold monitoring: 4.62V
• Identical output configuration: Push-Pull, Push-Pull
• Identical reset logic: Active High/Active Low
• Identical reset timeout: 140ms Minimum
• Identical operating temperature range: 0°C ~ 70°C (TA)
• Identical package type: 16-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width)
• Identical mounting type: Surface Mount
• Identical number of voltages monitored: 1 channel
• Identical supervisor type: Simple Reset/Power-On Reset

Two substitute parts meet these criteria: MAX792LCSE+ (direct manufacturer equivalent with updated packaging and compliance status) and MAX820LCSE+ (parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX792LCSE is obsolete and no longer in active production. Both substitute parts—MAX792LCSE+ and MAX820LCSE+—are active components with identical electrical and mechanical specifications.

MAX792LCSE+ is the direct manufacturer equivalent, maintaining the same base product number (MAX792) with updated packaging (Tube) and current RoHS3 compliance status. This part is recommended for designs requiring direct part number continuity and is available in higher inventory quantities (23,511 pieces).

MAX820LCSE+ is a parametric equivalent with an alternative base product number (MAX820) but identical functional specifications. This part is also RoHS3 compliant and available in active production status, though with lower inventory availability (711 pieces).

Both substitutes are suitable for direct replacement in existing designs. Selection between them should be based on procurement availability, inventory requirements, and any design documentation constraints related to part number specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX792LCSE+ directly replace MAX792LCSE in existing designs?

A: Yes. MAX792LCSE+ is the direct manufacturer equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. All parameters including voltage threshold (4.62V), output configuration (Push-Pull), reset timeout (140ms minimum), operating temperature range (0°C ~ 70°C), and 16-SOIC package are identical. The primary difference is product status (Active vs. Obsolete) and RoHS compliance (ROHS3 Compliant vs. RoHS non-compliant).

Q: What is the difference between MAX792LCSE+ and MAX820LCSE+?

A: Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical electrical specifications and package type. The primary difference is the base product number (MAX792 vs. MAX820). Both are active components with RoHS3 compliance. Selection should be based on procurement availability and inventory requirements, as all functional parameters are equivalent.

Q: Are the substitute parts pin-compatible with the original MAX792LCSE?

A: Yes. Both MAX792LCSE+ and MAX820LCSE+ use the identical 16-SOIC package (0.154", 3.90mm Width) with the same pin configuration and electrical specifications, ensuring direct PCB compatibility.

Q: What is the impact of RoHS compliance differences?

A: The original MAX792LCSE is RoHS non-compliant, while both substitutes (MAX792LCSE+ and MAX820LCSE+) are ROHS3 compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations or customer requirements, the compliant substitutes are required. For legacy systems without RoHS mandates, both options remain functionally equivalent.

Q: Can these parts be used interchangeably in production?

A: Yes, within the constraints of your design documentation and procurement specifications. MAX792LCSE+ maintains the same base product number for direct part number continuity. MAX820LCSE+ requires design documentation updates but offers identical functionality. Both are suitable for production use based on availability and compliance requirements.
