Key Features
- Single-channel voltage supervisor with fixed threshold (non-adjustable) for reliable, consistent power-on reset and brownout detection without external threshold components
- Ceramic glass-sealed DIP-16 package (JESD-30 R-GDIP-T16) providing hermetic protection against moisture and contaminants for high-reliability military, aerospace, and industrial applications
- Voltage supervisor function generates clean reset pulses to microprocessors and digital logic on power-up and during voltage brownout conditions, preventing erratic system behavior
- RoHS-compliant Pb-free construction (JESD-609 e0) in a through-hole ceramic package compatible with socketed high-reliability board assemblies
Applications
The UC2543J is designed for power supply monitoring and microprocessor reset generation in high-reliability embedded systems, military electronics, avionics, and aerospace equipment where ceramic package hermeticity and long-term reliability are mandatory. It is also used in industrial control systems and ruggedized instrumentation requiring guaranteed reset behavior during power cycling and supply brownout events. The fixed threshold architecture simplifies design and ensures repeatable reset performance without calibration across the production lifetime of the equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the UC2543J do and when is it used?
The UC2543J is a voltage supervisor and reset IC that monitors the system power supply and asserts a reset output signal when the supply voltage falls below a fixed threshold. It is used to hold microprocessors and digital logic in reset during power-up, power-down, and brownout conditions, preventing unpredictable behavior caused by insufficient supply voltage.
Why does the UC2543J use a ceramic package instead of a plastic package?
The UC2543J uses a ceramic glass-sealed DIP-16 package (JESD-30 R-GDIP-T16) because ceramic packages provide hermetic sealing against moisture, gases, and contaminants. This makes them mandatory in military, aerospace, and industrial applications where devices must survive harsh environments, extended temperature ranges, and decades of operation without degradation.
Is the voltage threshold in the UC2543J adjustable?
No, the UC2543J has fixed (non-adjustable) voltage thresholds. While this limits flexibility, it ensures consistent and repeatable reset behavior across all production units without requiring external resistors or individual calibration. This characteristic is especially valued in high-reliability applications where component variation must be minimized.
What package and pinout does the UC2543J use?
The UC2543J uses a 16-pin ceramic DIP (Dual In-Line Package) with glass sealing and a 0.3-inch lead spacing (package equivalence code DIP16,.3), identified by JEDEC code R-GDIP-T16. It is a through-hole package, compatible with IC sockets commonly used in high-reliability and serviceability-conscious designs.
What are typical applications for the UC2543J?
Typical applications include power-on reset generation for microprocessors and DSPs, supply voltage brownout detection in embedded controllers, watchdog timer supervision in industrial PLCs, and system reset management in military avionics, space electronics, medical instrumentation, and ruggedized computing systems requiring ceramic package reliability.
