The MCP130T-475I/TT is an IC component that falls into the category of voltage detectors or supervisors. It is manufactured by Microchip Technology Inc., a leading provider of various semiconductor solutions.
This voltage detector IC is designed to monitor the power supply voltage of electronic devices and provide a reset signal when the voltage drops below a pre-set threshold. It has a threshold voltage of 4.75V (hence the part number MCP130T-475I/TT), making it ideal for applications requiring a reset signal at a higher voltage level.
Key Features of MCP130T-475I/TT:
1. Reset Output: The IC provides an active-low reset signal when the monitored supply voltage drops below the threshold voltage. This signal can be used to reset microcontrollers, microprocessors, or other digital logic circuits.
2. Wide Voltage Range: The device can operate in a wide supply voltage range, typically from 1.0V to 5.5V. This flexibility allows its integration into systems with various power supply voltages.
3. Manual Reset Input: The MCP130T-475I/TT has a dedicated pin that allows for manual reset functionality. When pulled low, this pin forces the reset output to go low, regardless of the monitored voltage level
