Low-Power CMOS Ionization Smoke
Detector with Interconnect and Timer
MC14568
The MC14568, when used with an ionization chamber and a small number of
external components, will detect smoke. When smoke is sensed, an alarm is
sounded via an external piezoelectric transducer and internal drivers. This circuit
is designed to operate in smoke detector systems that comply with UL217 and
UL268 specifications.
An internal oscillator with associated logic controls the overall functionality by
powering down the device for 1.67 seconds and sensing smoke in a 10 ms
window. In this way, standby current consumption is reduced to between 5.0 and
9.0 µA, thus providing longer battery life. In addition, a networking capability
allows as many as 125 to be interconnected so that if any unit senses smoke, all
units will sound an alarm.

The MC14568 is supplied in a 16-pin dual in-line plastic package and is
designed to run on a power supply between 6 to 12 Volts.
