Additional Details
The MIC803-44D4VC3TR has a fixed reset threshold voltage, as indicated by the "44" in the part number, typically around 4.38V. This means that the reset output will be asserted when the supply voltage drops below this level. The reset output is active-low, meaning it will be low during a reset condition and high during normal operation. The device's small package size allows for easy integration into compact designs. The MIC803-44D4VC3TR typically operates with a supply voltage range of 1.6V to 5.5V. Its low power consumption makes it suitable for battery-powered devices. The device is widely used in various electronic systems, including microprocessors, microcontrollers, DSPs, and embedded systems, to ensure reliable and stable operation.
