MAX883ESA-T Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MAX883ESA-T is a linear voltage regulator IC from Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated, classified as a Power Management (PMIC) device. It provides positive adjustable (fixed) output regulation with a 200mA current capacity in an 8-SOIC surface mount package. The device features Enable and Low Battery Detection control functions, along with Over Current, Over Temperature, and Reverse Polarity protection.

The MAX883ESA-T is currently listed as Obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to ensure design continuity, maintain supply chain reliability, and support ongoing production or maintenance requirements for systems utilizing this regulator.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for the MAX883ESA-T is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Output Configuration: Positive
• Output Type: Adjustable (Fixed)
• Number of Regulators: 1
• Voltage - Input (Max): 11.5V
• Voltage - Output (Min/Fixed): 1.25V (5V)
• Voltage - Output (Max): 11V
• Voltage Dropout (Max): 0.44V @ 200mA
• Current - Output: 200mA
• Current - Quiescent (Iq): 15 µA
• Current - Supply (Max): 25 µA
• Control Features: Enable, Low Battery Detection
• Protection Features: Over Current, Over Temperature, Reverse Polarity
• Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 85°C
• Package / Case: 8-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width)

The MAX883ESA+T meets all substitution criteria as a parametric equivalent, differing only in packaging format (Tape & Reel versus individual packaging) and product status (Active versus Obsolete).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX883ESA+T is a direct parametric equivalent to the MAX883ESA-T. Both devices are manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated and share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary distinction is product status: the MAX883ESA-T is Obsolete, while the MAX883ESA+T is Active.

For new designs or ongoing production requiring this regulator topology, the MAX883ESA+T is the appropriate selection due to its Active status and continued availability. Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment.

The packaging difference (Tape & Reel for MAX883ESA+T versus individual packaging for MAX883ESA-T) reflects standard distribution formats and does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility when the same 8-SOIC package footprint is used.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MAX883ESA+T directly replace the MAX883ESA-T in existing designs?

A: Yes. The MAX883ESA+T is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications, output voltage range, current capacity, control features, and protection mechanisms. The 8-SOIC package footprint is identical, enabling direct PCB-level substitution.

Q: What is the difference between MAX883ESA-T and MAX883ESA+T?

A: The devices are electrically and mechanically identical. The primary differences are product status (Obsolete versus Active) and packaging format (individual versus Tape & Reel). The "+T" suffix indicates Tape & Reel packaging, which is the standard distribution format for active products.

Q: Why is the MAX883ESA-T listed as Obsolete?

A: Product obsolescence reflects manufacturer lifecycle decisions. The MAX883ESA+T remains in active production, providing a direct path for design continuity and supply chain support.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: No. Both parts maintain identical ROHS3 compliance, REACH Unaffected status, and Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) ratings. Regulatory and environmental compliance is equivalent.

Q: What inventory considerations apply to these parts?

A: The MAX883ESA-T has 2124 pieces in stock (Obsolete status). The MAX883ESA+T has 3400 pieces in stock (Active status). For ongoing production requirements, the MAX883ESA+T offers superior supply chain reliability due to its Active designation.

Q: Does the Tape & Reel packaging affect circuit performance?

A: No. Tape & Reel packaging is a distribution and handling format. The die, electrical characteristics, and performance of the MAX883ESA+T are identical to the MAX883ESA-T. The package footprint and pinout remain unchanged.
