Internal Power On Reset
The RE46C144 is low power CMOS photoelectric type
smoke detector IC. With minimal external components
this circuit will provide all the required features for a
photoelectric type smoke detector.
Low Quiescent Current Consumption
Available in 16L PDIP or 16L N SOIC
ESD Protection on all Pins
Interconnect up to 40 Detectors
10 Minute Timer for Sensitivity Control
75% Duty Cycle Horn Pattern
The design incorporates a gain selectable photo
amplifier for use with an infrared emitter/detector pair.
An internal oscillator strobes power to the smoke
detection circuitry for 100us every 10 seconds to keep
standby current to a minimum. If smoke is sensed the
detection rate is increased to verify an alarm condition.
A high gain mode is available for push button chamber
testing.

A check for a low battery condition and chamber
integrity is performed every 43 seconds when in
standby. The alarm horn pattern utilizes a 75% duty
cycle.

Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are
stress ratings only and operation at these conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
This product utilizes CMOS technology with static protection; however proper ESD prevention procedures should be used when
handling this product. Damage can occur when exposed to extremely high static electrical charge.
