Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MAX860ISA-T is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Topology: Charge Pump architecture
• Output Configuration: Positive or Negative capability
• Output Type: Fixed voltage output
• Number of Outputs: Single output
• Voltage Input Range: 1.5V to 5.5V (with 1.5V or 2.5V minimum options)
• Output Voltage Capability: -Vin or 2Vin generation
• Current Output: 50mA
• Switching Frequency: 6kHz, 50kHz, or 130kHz operation
• Package: 8-SOIC form factor
• Operating Temperature: -25°C to 85°C
• Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, MSL Level 1

The MAX860ISA+T qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical specifications, package configuration, and compliance certifications. The primary distinction is product status and packaging format.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX860ISA+T is a direct functional equivalent to the MAX860ISA-T. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, thermal operating range, package configuration, and regulatory compliance status (ROHS3 Compliant, MSL Level 1).

The MAX860ISA+T is currently in Active product status, whereas the MAX860ISA-T is Obsolete. For new designs or ongoing production requiring this charge pump regulator topology, the MAX860ISA+T is the appropriate selection. The substitute part maintains full compatibility with existing circuit designs and PCB layouts due to identical pinout and package dimensions.

Packaging format differs between the two parts: the MAX860ISA-T is supplied in Tube format, while the MAX860ISA+T is available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats. Selection between packaging options depends on assembly process requirements and order quantities.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MAX860ISA+T be used as a direct replacement for the MAX860ISA-T in existing designs?

A: Yes. The MAX860ISA+T is electrically and mechanically identical to the MAX860ISA-T. Both parts feature the same 8-SOIC package, pinout configuration, electrical specifications, and operating characteristics. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between the MAX860ISA-T and MAX860ISA+T?

A: The primary differences are product status and packaging format. The MAX860ISA-T is Obsolete and supplied in Tube packaging. The MAX860ISA+T is Active and available in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats. All electrical and thermal specifications are identical.

Q: Why is the MAX860ISA-T classified as Obsolete?
