GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MAX16023/MAX16024 low-power battery-backup circuits with a regulated output are capable of delivering up to 100mA output current. The MAX16023/MAX16024 include a low-dropout regulator, a microprocessor (µP) reset circuit, and a battery switchover circuit. Additional available features include a manual reset, a power-fail comparator, and a battery-on indicator. These devices reduce the number of external components to minimize board space and improve reliability. The MAX16023/MAX16024 are ideally suited for providing power for backing up critical memory such as static random-access memory (SRAM) or real-time clocks (RTCs). The regulated output is powered by VCC when it is present and switches over to the backup power during brownout. The MAX16023/MAX16024 accept an input voltage from 1.53V to 5.5V and provide fixed standard output voltages of 1.2V, 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.0V, and 3.3V. All outputs are available with push-pull or open-drain configurations. Another feature includes a manual-reset input (MAX16023/MAX16024).
