NXP Semiconductors TDA3616
The TDA3616 is a low power voltage regulator. It contains the following: • One fixed voltage regulator with a foldback current protection, intended to supply a microprocessor, that also operates during load dump • A provision for use of a reserve supply capacitor that will hold enough energy for the regulator to allow a microcontroller to prepare for loss of supply voltage • Reset signals which can be used to interface with the microprocessor • A supply pin that can withstand load dump pulses and negative supply voltages • Defined start-up behaviour; regulator will be switched on at a supply voltage higher than 7.5 V and off when the... 2000 Jan 14 4 Philips Semiconductors Objective specification Multiple voltage regulator with battery detection FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The TDA3616 (see Fig.1) is a voltage regulator intended to supply a microprocessor (e.g.
