DESCRIPTION
Over-voltage (O.V.) sensing with provision to trigger an external SCR “crowbar” shutdown; an under-voltage (U.V.) circuit which can be used to monitor either the output or to sample the input line voltage; and a third op amp/comparator usable for current sensing (C.L.) are all included in this IC, together with an independent, accurate reference generator. All functions contain open collector outputs which can be used independently or wire-ORed together; and although the SCR trigger is directly connected only to the over-voltage sensing circuit, it may be optionally activated by any of the other outputs, or from an external signal. The O.V
