MAX882ESA-T Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MAX882ESA-T is a linear voltage regulator IC from Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated, classified as a Power Management (PMIC) component. This device functions as a positive adjustable (fixed) output regulator with 200mA output current capability in an 8-SOIC surface mount package. The MAX882ESA-T is currently listed as obsolete, making identification of active equivalent parts essential for ongoing design support and procurement continuity. Substitute parts must maintain identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility to ensure direct replacement without circuit redesign.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the MAX882ESA-T are identified based on strict parametric equivalence across all critical electrical and mechanical specifications. The substitution logic is based on the following key parameters that must remain identical:

• Output configuration (Positive)
• Output type (Adjustable/Fixed)
• Number of regulators (1)
• Output current rating (200mA)
• Input voltage range (Max 11.5V)
• Output voltage range (Min 1.25V, Max 11V)
• Dropout voltage specification (0.64V @ 200mA)
• Quiescent current (15 µA)
• Control features (Enable, Low Battery Detection)
• Protection features (Over Current, Over Temperature, Reverse Polarity)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C)
• Package type (8-SOIC)
• Compliance certifications (ROHS3, REACH Unaffected)

All identified substitutes maintain these parameters without deviation. Packaging format differences (Cut Tape, Digi-Reel, Tape & Reel) represent procurement variations only and do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX882ESA-T is classified as obsolete. Both identified substitutes—MAX882ESA+T and MAX884ESA+T—are active products from the same manufacturer with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Selection between these substitutes is determined by procurement requirements and packaging format availability.

MAX882ESA+T is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats, suitable for applications requiring flexible packaging options. MAX884ESA+T is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, standard for high-volume production environments.

Both substitutes maintain full compliance with ROHS3 and REACH requirements. The identical electrical performance, control features, protection mechanisms, and thermal operating range ensure direct functional replacement without circuit modification or performance degradation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX882ESA+T and MAX884ESA+T be used interchangeably with MAX882ESA-T?

A: Yes. Both substitutes maintain identical electrical specifications, output current rating, voltage ranges, dropout characteristics, control features, protection mechanisms, and operating temperature range. The 8-SOIC package dimensions are identical, enabling direct PCB placement without modification.

Q: What is the difference between MAX882ESA+T and MAX884ESA+T?

A: The electrical and mechanical specifications are identical. The difference is packaging format: MAX882ESA+T uses Cut Tape (CT) and Digi-Reel® formats, while MAX884ESA+T uses Tape & Reel (TR) format. Selection depends on procurement volume and assembly line requirements.

Q: Why is MAX882ESA-T listed as obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence is a manufacturer lifecycle decision. Active substitutes with identical specifications are available from Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated to ensure design continuity.

Q: Are there any compliance differences between the main part and substitutes?

A: No. All three parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected status, and Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1 rating.

Q: Can these parts be used in new designs?

A: Yes. The active substitute parts (MAX882ESA+T and MAX884ESA+T) are suitable for new designs. The obsolete MAX882ESA-T should be replaced with one of the active substitutes for ongoing production and support.

Q: What is the significance of the 200mA output current specification?

A: The 200mA output current rating defines the maximum load current the regulator can supply. This specification is identical across all three parts and must match the application's power requirements.

Q: Are the control features identical across all three parts?

A: Yes. All three parts include Enable and Low Battery Detection control features, plus Over Current, Over Temperature, and Reverse Polarity protection.
