MCP101-460DI/TO

Supervisors Overview

The MCP101-460DI/TO is a microcontroller supervisory circuit manufactured by Microchip Technology. It functions as a voltage supervisor designed to maintain the processor in a reset state until the supply voltage stabilizes within the acceptable operating range. The device features a push-pull output configuration and provides protection against brown-out conditions when the input voltage drops below the specified threshold. This component is part of the MCP101 series, which offers precision monitoring for standard system voltages.

Supervisors Feature Summary

• Maintains microcontroller in reset until supply voltage reaches stable operating level
• Provides active high push-pull output signal
• Protects system from brown-out conditions during power loss

Supervisors Applications

• Microcontroller system supervision
• Brown-out protection circuits
• Power management systems requiring voltage stabilization monitoring

Supervisors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific trip voltage code corresponding to the '460' suffix in the official datasheet to ensure it matches the required threshold for your application. Confirm that the TO-92 package style is compatible with your board layout and thermal requirements. Check for any updated revision notes or alternative pinout configurations before finalizing the procurement order.

Supervisors Selection Notes

Select this component when a push-pull output is required for direct interfacing with logic inputs without external pull-up resistors. Ensure the monitored voltage level aligns with the specific trip point designated by the model suffix. Consider the through-hole TO-92 package if surface mount options are not feasible for the assembly process.

Supervisors Part Context

This device belongs to the MCP100/101 family of voltage supervisory circuits. While the MCP100 typically features an open-drain output, the MCP101 variant specifically utilizes a push-pull architecture. This family is engineered to provide reliable reset generation for embedded systems, ensuring data integrity during power transitions.

Supervisors Replacement Considerations

MCP101-460HI/TT: Same electrical function but different package (SOT-23) and temperature grade. MCP101-460DI/TT: Same function and package but different temperature grade.
