The MICROCHIP MCP111-290E/TO, also known as IC-111-290 Supervisor Micropower Voltage Detector, is an integrated circuit (IC) designed to monitor and regulate voltage levels in low-power applications. An IC monitors voltage and resets circuits if the voltage falls below a preset threshold.
Benefits
- It is ideal for battery-powered devices due to its minimal energy draw.
- Allows you to set the desired voltage level for detection, ensuring optimal operation of your device.
- The IC automatically resets the circuit when the voltage rises above the threshold, preventing malfunctions.
- It provides flexibility when interfacing with various logic circuits.
Applications
- Portable electronics: Monitors battery voltage levels in laptops, smartphones, and wearable devices, protecting them from damage caused by undervoltage conditions.
- Power supplies: Ensures proper voltage regulation and safeguards against power surges or dips in various electronic systems.
- Industrial equipment: Monitors critical voltage levels in industrial settings for reliable operation of machinery and control systems.
