The MAX6428MRUR-T ships in Bulk — not tape-and-reel — so the pick-and-place feeder setup and minimum order quantity differ from the standard reel format. Confirm the handling method with your assembly house before committing the line. Housed in a SOT-23-3 package (TO-236-3 / SC-59 equivalent), the footprint occupies minimal board area and suits space-constrained portable or battery-backed designs. The surface-mount profile is compatible with standard reflow profiles.
What the battery monitor does
This is a single-cell, multi-chemistry battery monitor — it tracks the state of one series cell and works across lithium, NiMH, lead-acid, and other chemistries without a chemistry-specific configuration pin.
Lifecycle and compliance
Note the RoHS compliance status: the part is marked RoHS non-compliant. For shipments into EU or other RoHS-regulated markets, verify whether an exemption applies or whether a lead-free alternative is required at the system level.
