Active production, ready for the BOM
The MAX1259EWE+: It handles the housekeeping for battery-powered systems — charge regulation, discharge control, and system monitoring — all in a single 16-SOIC package that's friendly for hand-soldering or reflow.
Temperature range and package fit
Surface-mount assembly with tube packaging; no moisture sensitivity level is stated, but typical SOIC packages are MSL 1 or 2, safe for standard reflow profiles.
Compliance and sourcing posture
Fully ROHS3 compliant — no exemptions needed for lead, mercury, or the other restricted substances under EU directive 2011/65/EU.
