Maxim’s wearables portfolio of standard products feature the lowest power consumption and the smallest packages available. These devices were designed to meet the demanding design requirements needed save space and prolong battery life in wearables.

Power (Buck/Boost/LDO)
Maxim's wearables and IoT portfolio offers a variety of low-power, small-size power supply options. High efficiency, high integration, low-noise, and tiny packages make their step-up and step-down switching regulators solutions along with high-accuracy, low-noise, low-dropout linear regulators ideal for today’s mobile and wearable markets.

Operational Amplifiers
Maxim Integrated's broad range of op amps includes a unique combination of high-speed, precision, low-noise, and low-voltage operation. Highest precision, lowest noise amps drive high resolution ADCs and support the highest system accuracy. Low offset voltages and low drift enhance system accuracy making them ideal for high-precision applications. Small packaging and lowest power consumption available make all these options ideal for portable consumer and medical applications.

Comparators
Maxim comparators offer smallest size and lowest power. Their portfolio of low-cost, small size comparators offer a wide range of propagation delay versus power options and are ideal for system monitoring/supply voltage sanity checks. These devices are well-suited for the design challenges associated with wearable and IoT designs.

Current Sense Amplifiers
High-side and low-side current-sense amplifiers feature very low input offset voltage and wide common mode voltage to provide accurate measurements over a wide dynamic range. Low input offset voltage supports high-precision measurements. High-side or low-side sensing amps with a wide range of common mode voltage, from below ground to 76 V, enable accurate measurements for many applications.

Voltage Reference
An industry-leading portfolio of shunt and series voltage reference ICs offer low-noise operation, excellent initial accuracy, and the lowest drift over time and temperature. Tiny series and shunt references with very low input current are ideal for portable and hand-held devices. Maxim's low temperature coefficient, low noise references are capable of driving the industry’s highest performance 24-/20-/18-/16-bit ADCs.

Supervisory
Pushbutton controllers and switch debouncers are the simplest and most cost-effective solutions for microprocessor supervision and manual reset. Features such as ESD protection, low-power operation, and small packages make them ideal for harsh environments and portable applications. The wide selection of microprocessor-reset circuits offers industry-leading precision. Maxim Integrated's complete portfolio of watchdog timers includes both factory-preset and user-selectable reset voltages, multiple timeout options, and different output configurations.

Data Conversion (ADC/DAC)
Precision ADCs feature high accuracy at low power. Maxim Integrated's broad selection of precision SAR and sigma-delta ADCs features best-in-class combinations of high-resolution, fast data-rate, low power, and small packages to support all high-accuracy measurement needs. Their comprehensive portfolio of space-saving digital-to-analog converters features low-power operation, internal references, and buffered and unbuffered outputs to support all power conscious design needs.
