The MIC811TUY-TR is an integrated circuit (IC) component that offers voltage monitoring and reset functions for microcontroller-based systems. It is produced by Microchip Technology, a leading provider of semiconductor solutions.
Key features of the MIC811TUY-TR include:
1. Voltage Monitoring: The IC continuously monitors the voltage level of the power supply connected to the microcontroller. It has a fixed threshold voltage of 3.08V, which can be used to detect power supply failure or a low voltage condition.
2. Reset Output: Whenever the monitored voltage drops below the threshold, the MIC811TUY-TR asserts a reset signal to the microcontroller. This ensures that the microcontroller safely resets and restarts, preventing any erratic behavior or data corruption.
3. Push-Pull Output: The IC provides a push-pull reset output, which means it can both pull-down and pull-up the reset line of the microcontroller. This feature ensures compatibility with a wide range of microcontroller architectures.
4. Manual Reset Input: The MIC811TUY-TR also offers a manual reset input (MR), which allows the microcontroller to be reset manually by an external button or switch. This can be useful during debugging and system testing.
5. Low Power Consumption: The MIC811TUY-TR is designed to consume very low power, making it suitable for battery-powered applications where power efficiency is critical
