Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MAX8214ACPE is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Functional Type: Multi-voltage supervisor with identical channel count (5 channels)
• Voltage Monitoring: 5 adjustable threshold voltages
• Output Topology: Push-pull, totem pole configuration
• Reset Characteristics: Active high/active low reset with <1ms minimum timeout
• Operating Temperature: 0°C ~ 70°C range
• Package Compatibility: 16-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) through-hole mounting
• Electrical Interface: Identical pin configuration and signal levels

The MAX8214BCPE+ meets all these criteria and qualifies as a parametric equivalent substitute.
