Key Features

  • Fixed 4.5 V supervisory threshold for monitoring 3 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V power rails
  • Active-low reset output holds MCU in reset during brownout and power-up sequences
  • Single-channel voltage supervisor with no external component required for basic reset function
  • TO-92-3 through-hole package enabling easy hand-assembly and prototype board integration
  • Pb-free RoHS-compliant construction (JESD-609 Code e3) for compliant product manufacturing

Applications

The MCP100-450HI/TO is used as a power-on reset supervisor in microcontroller and microprocessor systems to ensure orderly startup and brownout protection on 3 V, 3.3 V, or 5 V supply rails. It is a simple, cost-effective solution for industrial controllers, consumer appliances, and embedded systems where a reliable reset signal is needed without additional passive components.

Frequently Asked Questions

At what supply voltage does MCP100-450HI/TO assert its reset output, and how does this protect a 3.3 V MCU system?

The MCP100-450HI/TO asserts its active-low reset output when the supply voltage falls below the 4.5 V supervisory threshold, keeping the MCU in reset during brownout or slow power ramp conditions. For a 3.3 V system powered from a 5 V rail, the device guarantees the MCU cannot execute spurious code until the 5 V rail is stable above 4.5 V.

How does the TO-92-3 package of MCP100-450HI/TO fit into prototype and low-volume PCB assembly workflows?

The TO-92-3 is a standard 3-pin through-hole package with a 1.52 mm lead pitch, making it compatible with breadboards, perfboards, and wave-soldered PCBs without any specialized SMT equipment. For low-volume or prototype builds, this package simplifies hand-assembly and rework compared to SOT-23 alternatives, while occupying only 3 pins on the board.

What lead time and lifecycle risk should procurement teams plan for when sourcing MCP100-450HI/TO in volume?

MCP100-450HI/TO carries a factory lead time of approximately 7 weeks and a YTEOL score of 8, suggesting moderate but manageable long-term supply availability. Procurement teams planning multi-year production runs should carry safety stock of at least 8 to 12 weeks to buffer against lead-time fluctuations common in the analog supervisor IC category.

Is MCP100-450HI/TO a suitable drop-in alternative to fixed-threshold supervisors like MAX803 in existing 5 V reset circuits?

The MCP100-450HI/TO with its 4.5 V trip threshold and active-low open-drain reset output is functionally comparable to fixed-threshold supervisors such as the MAX803 in 5 V reset applications. It offers a 3-pin TO-92 package, Pb-free construction, and a threshold suited for detecting undervoltage on a 5 V rail with a typical 200 ms to 300 ms reset timeout on power-up.
