SMOKE DETECTOR
WITH INTERCONNECT AND TIMER
The A5368CA is a low-current, CMOS circuit providing all of the
required features for an ionization-type smoke detector. A networking
capability allows as many as 125 units to be interconnected so that if
any unit senses smoke, all units will sound an alarm. In addition,
special features are incorporated to facilitate alignment and test of the
finished smoke detector. This device is designed to comply with
Underwriters Laboratories Specification UL217.
The internal oscillator and timing circuitry keeps standby power to
a minimum by powering down the device for 1.66 seconds and sensing
smoke for only 10 ms. Every 24 on/off cycles, a check is made for low
battery condition. By substituting other types of sensors, or a switch
for the ionization detector, this very-low power device can be used in
numerous other battery-operated safety/security applications.
The A5368CA is supplied in a low-cost, 16-pin dual in-line plastic
package. It is rated for continuous operation over the temperature
range of 0
°
C to +50
°
C.
