The MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879 are available in
small 4mm x 4mm 24-pin and 16-pin thin QFN packages and are fully specified over the -40°C to +85°C
extended operating temperature range.
Ordering Information
OUT2
The MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879 feature adjustable
undervoltage thresholds for each input supply. When all
the voltages are above these adjustable thresholds, the
devices turn on the external n-channel MOSFETs to
either sequence or track the voltages to the system.
During voltage-tracking mode, the voltage at the GATE
of each MOSFET is increased to slowly bring up all
supplies at a controlled slew rate. The MAX6877/
MAX6878/MAX6879 feature an autoretry or latch-off
mode with capacitor-adjusted timing.
These devices also provide a controlled power-down
(tracking mode) when the system shuts off in an orderly
manner. When an unexpected fault occurs, the outputs
are all pulled down simultaneously with an internal
100Ω pulldown to help discharge capactive loads at
the MOSFET’s source. The MAX6877/MAX6878/
MAX6879 feature independent internal charge pumps
to fully enhance the external FETs for low-voltage drop
at highpass current. The MAX6877 and MAX6878 also
feature a power-good output with a selectable timeout
period that can be used for system reset.

Note 1: Specifications guaranteed for the stated global conditions. 100% production tested at TA = +25°C and TA = +85°C.
Specifications at TA = -40°C to +85°C are guaranteed by design. These devices meet the parameters specified when at
least one of VCC, IN1/IN2/IN3 is between 2.7V to 5.5V, while the remaining IN1/IN2/IN3 are between 0 and 5.5V.
Note 2: A current ID = 2.5µA ±15% is generated internally and is used to set the DELAY and TIMEOUT periods and used as a reference for tDELAY and tTIMEOUT.
Note 3: The total DELAY is tDELAY = 200ms + (500kΩ x CDELAY). Leave DELAY unconnected for 200µs delay. The total TIMEOUT is
tTIMEOUT = 200µs + (500kΩ x CTIMEOUT). Leave TIMEOUT unconnected for 200µs timeout.
Note 4: A current IS = 25µA ±10% is generated internally and used as a reference for tFAULT, tRETRY, and slew rate.
Note 5: During power-up, only the condition OUT_ < ramp - VTRK is checked in order to stop the ramp. However, both conditions
OUT_ < ramp - VTRK_F and OUT_ > ramp + VTRK_F cause a fault. During power-down, only the condition OUT > ramp +
VTRK is checked in order to stop the ramp. However, both conditions OUT_ < ramp - VTRK_F and OUT_ > ramp + VTRK_F
cause a fault (see Figure 10). Therefore, if OUT1, OUT2, and OUT3 (during power-up tracking and power-down) differ by
more than 2 x VTRK_F, a fault condition is asserted.
Note 6: A 100Ω pulldown to GND activated by a fault condition. See the Internal Pulldown section.

GND
Externally Adjusted IN_ Undervoltage Lockout Threshold. Connect SET_ to
an external resistor-divider network to set the desired undervoltage threshold
for each IN_ supply (see the Typical Application Circuit). All SET_ inputs
must be above the internal SET_ threshold (0.5V) to enable tracking or
sequencing functionality.
No Connection. Not internally connected.
Logic-Enable Input or Undervoltage Lockout Monitor Input. EN/UV must be
high (EN/UV > VEN_R) to enable voltage tracking or sequencing power-up
operation. OUT_ begins tracking down when EN/UV < VEN_F. Connect EN/UV
to an external resistor-divider network to set the external UVLO threshold.

Functional Diagram
MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879
Dual-/Triple-Voltage, Power-Supply
Trackers/Sequencers/Supervisors
Detailed Description
The MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879 multivoltage power
trackers/sequencers/supervisors monitor up to three
system voltages and provide proper power-up and
power-down control for systems requiring voltage
tracking or sequencing. These devices ensure controlled voltage tracking with a specified range or
sequencing in the proper order as system power supplies are enabled. The MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879
generate all required voltages and timing to control up
to three external n-channel pass FETs for the
OUT1/OUT2/OUT3 supply voltages (see the Selector
Guide for different features of each device.)
The MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879 feature adjustable
undervoltage thresholds for each input supply. When
all the voltages are above these adjusted thresholds,
the devices turn on the external n-channel MOSFETs to
either sequence or track the voltages to the system.
During the voltage-tracking mode, the voltage at the
GATE of each MOSFET is increased to slowly bring up
all supplies at a controlled slew rate. The voltage at the
source (output) of each MOSFET is internally compared
to a control ramp to maintain a low differential between
each monitored supply. Tracking is dynamically adjusted to force all outputs to track within 125mV of the reference ramp. If for any reason any supplies fail to track
within ±250mV of the reference ramp, the FAULT output is asserted, the power-up mode is terminated, and
all outputs are quickly powered off. In sequencing
mode, the outputs are turned on one after the other,
OUT1 first and OUT3 last. The MAX6877/MAX6878/
MAX6879 feature an autoretry or latch-off mode with
capacitor-adjusted timing.
These devices also provide a controlled power-down
(tracking mode) when the system shuts off in an orderly
manner. When an unexpected fault occurs, the outputs
are all pulled down simultaneously with an internal
100Ω pulldown to help discharge capacitive loads at
the MOSFET’s source.
The MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879 feature independent
internal charge pumps to fully enhance the external
FETs for low-voltage drops at highpass currents. The
MAX6877/MAX6878 also feature a power-good output
with a selectable timeout period that can be used for
system reset.
The MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879 monitor up to three
voltages. Devices may be configured to exclude any
IN_. To disable the tracking or sequencing operation of
any IN_, connect the IN_ to ground (or leave unconnected) and connect SET_ to a voltage greater than
0.5V. The channel exclusion feature adds more flexibili16
ty to the device in a variety of different applications. As
an example, the MAX6877 can track or sequence two
voltages using IN1 and IN2 while IN3 is left disabled.
Powering the
MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879
These devices derive power from either the IN1, IN2, or
IN3 voltage inputs or VCC (see the Functional Diagram).
VCC or one of the IN_ inputs must be at least +2.7V to
ensure full device operation.
The highest input voltage on IN1/IN2/IN3 or VCC supplies power to the devices. Internal hysteresis ensures
that the supply input that initially powers these devices
continues to power the MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879
when multiple input voltages are within 100mV (typ) of
each other.
ABP
ABP powers the analog circuitry. Bypass ABP to GND
with a 1µF ceramic capacitor installed as close to the
device as possible. ABP takes the highest voltage of
IN_ or VCC. Do not use ABP to provide power to external circuitry. ABP maintains the device supply voltage
during rapid power-down conditions.
Tracking and Sequencing Modes
(TRK/SEQ)
To enable the power-up/power-down voltage-tracking
operation, drive TRK/SEQ low (connect TRK/SEQ to
GND). To enable power-up sequencing and powerdown tracking functions, drive TRK/SEQ high (connect
TRK/SEQ to ABP) or leave it unconnected. TRK/SEQ is
internally pulled to ABP through a 10µA current source
(see Figures 1 and 3).
Tracking
To operate in tracking mode, connect TRK/SEQ to
GND. When VEN/UV > 1.25V and all SET_ inputs are
above the internal SET_ threshold (0.5V), the tracking
process is initiated. The MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879
generate an internal reference ramp voltage that drives
the control loops for the tracked voltages. The tracking
functionality is monitored with a comparator control
block for each output (see the Functional Diagram).
The comparators monitor each OUT_ voltage with
respect to the common reference ramp voltage to
ensure the OUT_ voltages stay within 125mV of the reference ramp, monitor each tracked output voltage with
respect to its source input voltage, and monitor each
output voltage with respect to GND during powerup/retry cycles. If for any reason any supplies fail to
track within ±250mV of the reference ramp, the FAULT
output is asserted, the power-up mode is terminated,
and all outputs are quickly powered off.
______________________________________________________________________________________
Dual-/Triple-Voltage, Power-Supply
Trackers/Sequencers/Supervisors
The slew rate for the reference ramp voltage is capacitor adjustable. Connect a capacitor from SLEW to
ground to select the desired OUT_ slew rate. When all
OUT_ voltages have exceeded the VTH_PG percentage
of the IN_ voltage (external n-channel FET is saturated),
PG/RST asserts high after tTIMEOUT indicating successful tracking.
Sequencing
The sequencing operation can be initiated after all
input conditions for power-up are met VEN/UV > 1.25V
and all SET_ inputs are above the internal SET_ threshold (0.5V). In sequencing mode, the outputs are turned
on sequentially, OUT1 first and OUT3 last. Before turning on each channel, a delay period occurs as in
Figure 3 (programmable by connecting a capacitor
from DELAY to ground). The power-up phase for each
channel ends when its output voltage exceeds a fixed
percentage (VTH_PG) of the corresponding IN_ voltage.
When all channels have exceeded these thresholds,
PG/RST asserts high after tTIMEOUT, indicating a successful sequence.
If there is a fault condition during the initial power-up
sequence, the process is aborted.
When powering down, all outputs turn off simultaneously, tracking each other. No reverse power-down
sequencing occurs.
Power-Up and Power-Down
During power-up, the OUT_ is forced to follow the internal
reference ramp voltage by an internal loop that controls
the GATE_ of the external MOSFET. This phase must be
completed within the adjustable fault timeout period; otherwise, the part forces a shutdown on all GATE_.
Once the power-up is completed, a power-down phase
can be initiated by forcing VEN/UV below VEN_F. The
reference voltage ramp ramps down at the capacitoradjusted slew rate. The control-loop comparators monitor each OUT_ voltage with respect to the common
reference ramp voltage. During ramp down, if an OUT_
voltage is greater than the reference ramp voltage by
more than VTRK, the control loop dynamically stops the
control ramp voltage from decreasing until the slow
OUT_ voltage catches up. If an OUT_ voltage is greater
or less than the reference ramp voltage by more than
VTRK_F, a fault is signaled and the fast-shutdown mode
is initiated. In fast-shutdown mode, a 100Ω pulldown
resistor is connected from OUT_ to GND to quickly discharge capacitance at OUT_ and GATE _ is pulled low
with a strong IGDS current (see Figures 2 and 4).
Figures 5 and 6 show aborted tracking and sequencing
modes. When EN/UV goes low before t TIMEOUT
expires, all the outputs go low and the device goes into
fast shutdown.
Internal Pulldown
To ensure that the OUT_ voltages are not held high by
a large output capacitance after a fault has occurred,
there is a 100Ω internal pulldown at OUT_. The pulldown ensures that all OUT_ voltages are below VTH_PL
(referenced to GND) before power-up cycling is initiated. The internal pulldown also ensures a fast discharge
of the output capacitor during fast shutdown and fault
modes. The pulldowns are not present during normal
operation.
Stability Comment
No external compensation is required for tracking or
slew-rate control.
Inputs
IN1/IN2/IN3
The highest voltage on VCC, IN1, IN2, or IN3 supplies
power to the device. The undervoltage threshold for
each IN_ supply is set with an external resistor-divider
from each IN_ to SET_ to ground.
Undervoltage Lockout Threshold Inputs (SET_)
The MAX6877 features three and the MAX6878/
MAX6879 feature two externally adjustable IN_ undervoltage lockout (UVLO) thresholds (SET1, SET2, SET3) to
enable sequencing/tracking functionality. The undervoltage threshold for each IN_ supply is set with an external resistor-divider from each IN_ to SET_ to ground
(see Figure 9). All SET_ inputs must be above the internal SET_ threshold (0.5V) to enable tracking/sequencing functionality. Use the following formula to set the
UVLO threshold:
VIN_ = VTH (R1 + R2) / R2
where VIN_ is the undervoltage lockout threshold and
VTH is the 500mV SET threshold.

MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879
During ramp up, if an OUT_ voltage is less than the reference ramp voltage by more than 125mV, the control
loop dynamically stops the control ramp voltage from
rising until the slow OUT_ voltage catches up. If an
OUT_ voltage is greater or less than the reference ramp
voltage by more than 250mV, a fault is signaled and a
power-down phase is initiated.

Limiting Inrush Current
The capacitor connected at SLEW controls the OUT_S
slew rate, thus controlling the inrush current required to
charge the load capacitor at the outputs (OUT_). Using
the programmed slew rate, limit the inrush current by
using the following formula:
IN_

voltages below the adjusted thresholds to avoid signaling an error. The state of PG/RST and FAULT outputs
does not change while MARGIN is low. PG/RST,
FAULT, and all monitoring functions are disabled while
MARGIN is low. MARGIN makes it possible to vary the
supplies without a need to adjust the thresholds to prevent tracker/sequencer alerts or faults. Drive MARGIN
high or leave it unconnected for normal operating
mode.
Slew-Rate Control Input (SLEW)
The reference ramp voltage slew rate during any controlled power-up/down phase can be programmed in
the 90V/s to 950V/s range by connecting a capacitor
(CSLEW) from SLEW to ground. Use the following formula to calculate the typical slew rate:
Slew Rate = (9.35 x 10-8)/ CSLEW
where slew rate is in V/s and CSLEW is in farads.
The capacitor at CSLEW also sets the FAULT timeout
period (t FAULT ) and FAULT retry timeout period
(tRETRY) (see Table 1).
For example, if C SLEW = 100pF, we have t RETRY =
350ms, t FAULT = 21.91ms, slew rate = 935V/s. For
example, if C SLEW = 1nF, we have t RETRY = 3.5s,
tFAULT = 219ms, slew rate = 93.5V/s.
CSLEW is the capacitor on the SLEW pad, and must be
large enough to make the parasitic capacitance negligible. C SLEW should be in the range of 100pF <
CSLEW < 1nF.

Delay Time Input (DELAY)
To adjust the desired delay period (t DELAY ) before
tracking/sequencing is enabled, connect a capacitor
(CDELAY) between DELAY to ground (see Figures 1 to 8).
The selected delay time is also enforced when EN/UV
rises from low to high when all the input voltages
(IN1/IN2/IN3) are present. Use the following formula to
calculate the delay time:
tDELAY = 200µs + (500kΩ x CDELAY)
where tDELAY is in µs and CDELAY is in farads. Leave
DELAY unconnected for the default 200µs delay.
Timeout Period Input (TIMEOUT)
These devices feature a PG/RST timeout period.
Connect a capacitor (C TIMEOUT ) from TIMEOUT to
ground to program the PG/RST timeout period. After all
OUT_ outputs exceed their IN_ referenced thresholds
(VTH_PG), PG/RST remains low for the selected timeout
period, tTIMEOUT (see Figure 3):
tTIMEOUT = 200µs + (500kΩ x CTIMEOUT)
where tTIMEOUT is in µs and CTIMEOUT is in farads.
Leave TIMEOUT unconnected for the default 200µs
timeout delay.
Logic-Enable Input (EN/UV)
Drive logic EN/UV input above VEN_R to initiate voltage
tracking/sequencing during the power-up operation.
Drive logic EN/UV below V EN_F to initiate tracking
power-down operation. Connect EN/UV to an external
resistor-divider network to set the external undervoltage
lockout threshold.
OUT1/OUT2/OUT3
The MAX6877 monitors three and MAX6878/MAX6879
monitor two OUT_ outputs to control the tracking/
sequencing performance. After the internal supply
(ABP) exceeds the minimum voltage (2.7V) requirements, EN/UV > VEN_R, and IN1/IN2/IN3 are all greater
than their adjusted SET_ thresholds, OUT1/OUT2/OUT3
begin to track or sequence.
______________________________________________________________________________________
Dual-/Triple-Voltage, Power-Supply
Trackers/Sequencers/Supervisors
Outputs
GATE_
The MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879 feature up to three
GATE_ outputs to drive up to three external n-channel
FET gates. The following conditions must be met before
GATE_ begins enhancing the external n-channel FET_:
1) All SET_ inputs (SET1–SET3) are above their 0.5V
thresholds.
2) At least one IN_ input or VCC is above the minimum
operating voltage (2.7V).
3) EN/UV > 1.25V.
At power-up mode, GATE_ voltages are enhanced by
control loops so that all OUT_ voltages track together at
a capacitor-adjusted slew rate. Each GATE_ is internally pulled up to 5V above its relative IN_ voltage to fully
enhance the external n-channel FET when power-up is
complete.
FAULT
The MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879 include an opendrain, active-low tracking fault alarm output (FAULT).
FAULT asserts low when a power-up phase is not completed within the specified fault period or if OUT_ voltages are more than VTRK_F.
The fault time period (tFAULT) is set through the capacitor at SLEW (CSLEW). Use the following formula to estimate the fault timeout period:
tFAULT = 2.191 x 108 x CSLEW
125mV DOWN =
STOP RAMP THRESHOLD
Power-supply tracking operation should be completed
within the selected fault timeout period (tFAULT). The
total tracking time is extended when the devices must
vary the control slew rate to allow slow supplies to
catch up. If the external FET is too small (RDS is too
high for the selected load current and IN_ source current), the OUT_ voltage may never reach the control
ramp voltage. For a slew rate of 935V/s, a fault is signaled if all outputs have not stabilized within 22ms. For
a slew rate of 93.5V/s, a fault is signaled if tracking
takes too long (more than 219ms).
During power-up, only the condition, OUT_ < ramp VTRK, is monitored in order to stop the ramp. However,
both conditions OUT < ramp - V TRK_F and OUT_ >
ramp + VTRK_F cause a fault. During power-down, only
the condition OUT > ramp + VTRK is checked in order
to stop the ramp. However, both conditions OUT_ <
ramp - VTRK_F and OUT_ > ramp + VTRK_F cause a
fault (see Figure 10). OUT1, OUT2, and OUT3 are
tracked within V TRK_F (mV) (power-up tracking and
power-down), and if they differ by more than 2 x VTRK_F
a fault condition is asserted.
Retry time period (tRETRY) is defined as 16 x tFAULT. To
calculate the retry time period use the following formula:
tRETRY = 3.506 x 109 x CSLEW
where tRETRY is in µs and CSLEW is in farads.
Autoretry and Latch-Off Functions (LTCH/RTR)
The MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879 feature latch-off or
autoretry modes to power-on again after a fault condition has been detected. Connect LTCH/RTR to ground
to set the latch-off mode. To select autoretry mode,
connect LTCH/RTR to ABP or leave unconnected.

MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879
During fault conditions, an internal pulldown resistor
(100Ω) on OUT_ is enabled to help discharge load
capacitance (100Ω is connected for fast power-down
control).
MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879
Dual-/Triple-Voltage, Power-Supply
Trackers/Sequencers/Supervisors
When a fault is detected, for a period of tRETRY, GATE_
remains off and the 100Ω pulldowns are turned on.
After the tRETRY period, the device waits tDELAY and
retries power-up if all power-up conditions are met (see
Figure 8). These include all VSET_ > 0.5V, EN/UV >
VEN_R, OUT_ voltages < VTH_PL. The autoretry period,
tRETRY, is a function of CSLEW; see Table 1.
When the device is in latch mode and a fault occurs,
FAULT asserts and all outputs are latched off. To
unlatch OUT_ after a fault disappears, cycle EN/UV or
cycle VCC and the inputs (IN_) below the 2.7V UVLO
threshold. After EN/UV goes high, the device waits a
tRETRY period then tries to power-up again. If VCC and
all IN_ are cycled below 2.7V, the device tries to powerup immediately.
Power-Good Output (PG/RST)
The MAX6877/MAX6878 include a power-good (PG/RST)
output. PG/RST is an open-drain output and requires an
external pullup resistor.
All the OUT_ outputs must exceed their IN_ referenced
thresholds (IN_ x VTH_PG) for the selected reset timeout
period tTIMEOUT (see the TIMEOUT Period Input section) before PG/RST asserts high. PG/RST stays low for
the selected reset timeout period (tTIMEOUT) after all
the OUT_ voltages exceed their IN_ referenced thresholds. PG/RST goes low when VSET_ < VTH or VEN/UV <
VEN_R (see Figure 3).
Applications Information
MOSFET Selection
The external pass MOSFET is connected in series with
the sequenced power-supply source. Since the load
current and the MOSFET drain-to-source impedance
(RDS) determine the voltage drop, the on characteristics of the MOSFET affect the load supply accuracy.
The MAX6877/MAX6878/MAX6879 fully enhance the
external MOSFET out of its linear range to ensure the
lowest drain-to-source on-impedance. For highest supply accuracy/lowest voltage drop, select a MOSFET
with an appropriate drain-to-source on-impedance with
a gate-to-source bias of 4.5V to 6.0V.
Layout and Bypassing
For better noise immunity, bypass each of the IN_
inputs to GND with 0.1µF capacitors installed as close
to the device as possible. Bypass ABP to GND with a
1µF capacitor installed as close to the device as possible. ABP is an internally generated voltage and must
not be used to supply power to external circuitry.
