• Limited threshold voltage options may not cater to all specific voltage monitoring needs.

Working Principles

The MAX6363LUT46-T operates by comparing the input voltage with the internally set threshold voltage. When the input voltage exceeds the threshold, the output pin (TRIP) is pulled low, indicating a fault condition or triggering an action in the system. The adjustable threshold voltage allows users to set the desired voltage level at which the output changes state.
