ZM33164
DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The ZM33164 is a three terminal under
voltage monitor circuit for use in
microprocessor systems. The threshold
voltage of the device has been set to 4.3volts
making it ideal for 5 volt circuits.
Included in the device is a precise voltage
reference and a comparator with built in
hysteresis to prevent erratic operation. The
ZM33164 features an open collector output
capable of sinking at least l0mA which only
requires a single external resistor to
interface to following circuits.
Operation of the device is guaranteed from
one volt upwards, from this level to the
device threshold voltage the output is held
low providing a power on reset function.
Should the supply voltage, once established,
at any time drop below the threshold level
then the output again will pull low.
The device is available in a TO92 package for
through hole applications as well as SOT223
for surface mount requirements.

Note:
1. Maximum package power dissipation must be observed
2. Maximum power dissipation for the SOT223 package is calculated assuming that the device
is mounted on a PCB measuring 2 inches square.
3. Low duty cycle pulse techniques are used during test to maintain junction temperatures as
close to ambient as possible
