The MIC842HBC5-TR is an integrated circuit (IC) component manufactured by Microchip Technology. It is a voltage supervisor and reset generator that provides a reliable and accurate reset signal to microcontrollers, microprocessors, and other digital electronics.
Key Features:
1. Voltage Monitoring: The MIC842HBC5-TR features a precision voltage reference and a programmable threshold voltage, allowing it to monitor the power supply voltage accurately. It can operate within a voltage range of 1.8V to 5.5V.
2. Reset Generation: This IC generates an active low reset signal whenever the monitored supply voltage drops below the programmable threshold. It ensures a smooth start-up and proper initialization of the digital system.
3. Push-Pull Reset Output: The MIC842HBC5-TR has a push-pull reset output, which means it can actively drive the reset signal to its active low state when triggered, providing a strong and reliable signal to the microcontroller.
4. Manual Reset Input: It also offers a manual reset input pin, allowing the system to be reset externally by pulling this pin to a low logic level. This feature is useful during system testing or when a manual reset is required.
5. Adjustable Reset Time Delay: The IC provides a programmable reset time delay, allowing the user to configure the reset signal's duration. It ensures that the reset is held for a sufficient time to complete the system initialization process
