Key Featrues

Low Power Consumption (4µA Operating Current): The MAX6814 operates with a minimal current draw of just 4µA, making it ideal for battery-powered or energy-sensitive applications. This feature enhances efficiency and extends battery life in portable devices or IoT systems.
Watchdog Timer with 1.6s Timeout: The integrated watchdog timer ensures system reliability by monitoring software execution. If the system fails to respond within the 1.6s timeout period, the watchdog timer triggers a reset, preventing system lockups and improving fault tolerance.
Push-Pull Active-Low WDO Output: The push-pull active-low watchdog output (WDO) provides a robust signal to alert the system of faults. This feature simplifies interfacing with microcontrollers and ensures reliable communication in noisy environments.
Wide Operating Voltage Range (2.25V to 5.5V): The device supports a broad voltage range, making it versatile for use in various applications, from low-power embedded systems to standard 5V logic circuits. This flexibility enhances its compatibility across different designs.
Compact SC-70-5 Package: The MAX6814 is housed in a tiny 5-pin SC-70 package, saving valuable board space in compact designs. This feature is particularly beneficial for space-constrained applications like wearables, sensors, and portable electronics.
