The PST572JMT typically operates with a supply voltage range of 1.6V to 5.5V and offers a detection voltage accuracy. The exact threshold voltage is specific to each variant of the PST572 series, which are often distinguished by suffixes. It is crucial to refer to the device's datasheet for specific threshold voltages, timing characteristics, and other operating parameters. The open-drain output requires an external pull-up resistor. Applications should consider the appropriate resistor value to ensure compatibility with the rest of the circuit.
