MAX626ESA+ datasheet by Maxim Integrated Products

MAX626ESA+ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended input voltage range for the MAX626ESA+?
  The recommended input voltage range for the MAX626ESA+ is 4.5V to 30V, although it can operate with input voltages as low as 3.5V.
• How do I ensure the output voltage remains stable over temperature?
  To ensure the output voltage remains stable over temperature, it's recommended to decouple the input with a 1uF capacitor and use a 10uF capacitor on the output to filter out noise and ripple.
• Can I use the MAX626ESA+ as a voltage regulator?
  No, the MAX626ESA+ is a voltage reference, not a voltage regulator. It's designed to provide a stable voltage reference, not to regulate an output voltage.
• What is the typical output current capability of the MAX626ESA+?
  The MAX626ESA+ can source up to 10mA of output current, making it suitable for most analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and digital-to-analog converter (DAC) applications.
• How do I minimize noise and ripple on the output voltage?
  To minimize noise and ripple on the output voltage, use a low-ESR capacitor (e.g., ceramic or film capacitor) on the output, and consider adding a noise-reducing capacitor (e.g., 100nF) between the output and ground.
