The MCP101-475DI/TO is a high-quality voltage supervisory device designed and manufactured by Microchip Technology, a leading provider of microcontroller, mixed-signal, analog, and Flash-IP solutions. This product is specifically engineered to keep microcontroller-based systems safe by monitoring the supply voltage and providing a reset signal to the host MCU during power-up, power-down, and brown-out conditions.
Key Features
- Voltage Threshold: The device has a preset threshold voltage of 4.75V, ensuring reliable operation and reset initiation when the supply voltage falls below this level.
- Reset Delay Time: It features a built-in delay time which provides a reset signal (active-low) after the voltage drops below the threshold, allowing the system enough time to stabilize.
- Output Type: The MCP101-475DI/TO offers an open-drain output, which requires an external pull-up resistor and allows for the connection of several devices to a common reset line.
- Temperature Range: With an operational temperature range from -40°C to +85°C, this device is suitable for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.
- Package Type: It comes in a TO-92 package, which is a through-hole mounting design, making it easy to integrate into various circuit boards.
Applications
The MCP101-475DI/TO is versatile and can be used in a variety of applications, including:
- Embedded systems
- Microcontroller power monitoring
- Computers and smart devices
- Automotive systems
- Industrial equipment
