A5366
Photoelectric Smoke Detector
with Interconnect and Timer
Features and Benefits
Description
▪ Low average standby current for long battery life
▪ Interconnect up to 50 detectors
▪ Piezoelectric horn driver
▪ Low battery detection (all internal)
▪ Chamber sensitivity test and alarm
The A5366 is a low-current BiCMOS circuit providing all of
the required features for a photoelectric type smoke detector.
Thisdevicecanbeusedwithaninfraredphotoelectricchamber
to sense scattered light from smoke particles. A networking
capability allows as many as 50 units to be interconnected so
that if any unit senses smoke all units will sound an alarm.
Special features are incorporated in the design to facilitate
calibration and testing of the finished detector. The device is
recognized by Underwriters Laboratories for use in smoke
alarms that comply with Standard UL217.
▪ Power-on reset (POR)
▪ Internal timer and control for reduced sensitivity mode
▪ Built-in circuits to reduce false triggering
▪ 6 to 12 V operating range
▪ ESD protection circuitry on all pins
▪ Temporal Horn Pattern, per UL217, NFPA72, and ISO8201
▪ UL Recognized for UL217 applications, per file #S2113
A variable-gain photoamplifier can be directly interfaced to
an infrared emitter-detector pair. The amplifier gain levels are
determinedbytwoexternalcapacitorsandareinternallyselected
depending on the operating mode. Low gain is selected during
standby and timer modes. During a local alarm, this low gain
is increased (internally) by approximately 10% to reduce false
triggering. High gain is used during pushbutton test and to
periodically monitor the chamber sensitivity during standby.
Packages:
16-pin DIP
(Package A)
Theinternaloscillatorandtimingcircuitrykeepstandbypower
to a minimum by sensing for smoke for only 100 μs every 10 s.
Aspecial three-stage–speedup sensing scheme is incorporated
to minimize the time to an audible alarm and also to reduce
falsetriggering. Chambersensitivityisperiodicallymonitored

for a warning signal (chirp) to occur.
16-pin SOICW
(Package LW)
TheA5366 is supplied in a 16-pin dual in-line plastic package
(suffix A), and for surface mount, a 16-pin SOICW (suffix
LW). The lead (Pb) free versions (suffix –T) have 100% matte-
tin leadframe plating. The devices are rated for continuous
operation over the temperature range of –25°C to 75°C.
