Category: Integrated Circuit (IC)
Use: Voltage Supervisor
Characteristics: - Monitors the voltage level of a power supply - Provides a reset signal when the voltage falls below a specified threshold - Ensures proper operation of microcontrollers and other digital systems
Package: TO-92
Essence: The MCP101-315HI/TO is a voltage supervisor IC that ensures reliable operation of electronic devices by monitoring the power supply voltage and generating a reset signal when it falls below a predetermined threshold.
Packaging/Quantity: The MCP101-315HI/TO is available in a TO-92 package, which is a small plastic casing. It is typically sold in reels or tubes containing multiple units.
The MCP101-315HI/TO has three pins:
Advantages: - Provides reliable voltage monitoring and reset functionality - Low power consumption - Wide operating voltage range
Disadvantages: - Limited reset timeout period (140ms)
The MCP101-315HI/TO works by comparing the supply voltage with a reference voltage internally generated. When the supply voltage falls below the threshold voltage, the RESET pin is pulled low, indicating a reset condition. The reset signal remains active until the supply voltage rises above the threshold and the reset timeout period elapses.
The MCP101-315HI/TO is commonly used in various electronic systems where reliable voltage monitoring and reset functionality are required. Some typical application fields include:
These alternative models provide similar voltage monitoring and reset functionality, but with different specifications to meet specific application requirements.
