MCP120T-315I/TT is an IC (Integrated Circuit) component developed by Microchip Technology. This IC is specifically designed as a voltage supervisor circuit, commonly used in various electronic devices to monitor and control the power supply voltage levels. It ensures stable and reliable operation of the system by resetting the device in case of voltage fluctuations or power supply failure.
Here are some key features of MCP120T-315I/TT:
1. Voltage Monitoring: The MCP120T-315I/TT IC provides precise monitoring of the power supply voltage levels. It has a fixed threshold of 3.15V, meaning it triggers a reset signal if the voltage goes below this threshold.
2. Reset Delay: This IC incorporates a built-in delay time to avoid false triggering. It ensures that the voltage level has stabilized before resetting the system. The reset delay time is typically 200ms.
3. Active-Low Open-Drain Output: It features an active-low open-drain output pin, which provides compatibility with various microcontrollers and logic devices. This output pin can be connected to the reset input of the device it is monitoring.
4. Low Power Consumption: MCP120T-315I/TT is designed to operate with very low power consumption, making it suitable for battery-powered systems or applications with limited power resources.
5. Wide Operating Voltage Range: The IC is designed to operate within a wide voltage range of 2.0V to 6.0V
