Applications
The MAX6878ETG+T is used in multi-rail power systems for FPGAs, DSPs, and networking ASICs where 2 or more supply rails must power up and power down in a defined sequence to prevent latch-up or data corruption. Its adjustable threshold inputs and sequencing outputs make it well suited for telecom line cards, embedded computing boards, and industrial control systems requiring deterministic multi-supply supervision.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many power rails can MAX6878ETG+T supervise and what threshold flexibility does it offer?
The MAX6878ETG+T supervises 2 independent power rails with fully adjustable voltage thresholds, allowing designers to set the exact voltage trip point for each rail using external resistor dividers. This covers the wide range of supply voltages (1.2 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V) found in modern FPGA and DSP power trees without needing a separate supervisor per rail.
Why is power sequencing critical for FPGA designs and how does MAX6878ETG+T address this?
FPGAs typically require their core supply (e.g. 1.0 V or 1.2 V) to power up before I/O rails (e.g. 2.5 V or 3.3 V) to prevent latch-up and ensure deterministic initialization. The MAX6878ETG+T enforces this order by holding downstream enable signals low until upstream rails pass their threshold, protecting device integrity during both power-up and power-down transitions.
What is the package size of MAX6878ETG+T and does it comply with environmental regulations?
The MAX6878ETG+T is housed in a 24-pin Thin QFN measuring 4 mm x 4 mm x 0.75 mm, enabling a very small power management footprint on densely packed PCBs. The part carries a REACH Compliant designation and uses a JESD-609 e3 lead-free solder code, making it suitable for products sold in EU and other regulated markets requiring RoHS and REACH compliance.
What is the long-term supply outlook for MAX6878ETG+T and when was it introduced?
MAX6878ETG+T was introduced in August 2005 and carries a YTEOL of 10 years, indicating Analog Devices plans to keep it in active production for at least another decade from the current reference date. This longevity makes it a low-risk choice for multi-year infrastructure, industrial, and telecom designs that cannot afford frequent component re-qualification cycles.
