ON Semiconductor CAT6221-MGTD-GT3 Voltage Supervisor IC

The CAT6221-MGTD-GT3 from ON Semiconductor is a precision voltage supervisor IC designed to ensure reliable operation of microprocessors and other logic systems. This component monitors the system voltage and maintains a reset signal to the host processor until the system voltage stabilizes within the acceptable range. It is a crucial component for applications that require high reliability and consistent performance.

Featuring a 2.93V threshold voltage and an active-low reset output, the CAT6221-MGTD-GT3 is adept at managing power-up, power-down, and brown-out conditions. The reset signal is maintained for a minimum of 140ms after the system voltage exceeds the threshold level, ensuring the system has sufficient time to stabilize before normal operation commences.

With its small 5-pin TSOT-23 package, the CAT6221-MGTD-GT3 is an ideal choice for space-constrained applications. Its low power consumption makes it suitable for battery-powered devices, while its wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C ensures it can perform reliably in a variety of environmental conditions.

Key features of the CAT6221-MGTD-GT3 include:

• Voltage Threshold: Precision monitoring at 2.93V threshold voltage.
• Reset Time Delay: Ensures a minimum reset pulse width of 140ms.
• Low Power Consumption: Ideal for battery-operated devices.
• Operating Temperature: Reliable performance in a range from -40°C to +85°C.
• Package Type: Available in a compact 5-pin TSOT-23 package.
