RE46C140
CMOS Photoelectric Smoke Detector ASIC with Interconnect and Timer Mode
Product Specification
General Description
The RE46C140 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.
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 temporal horn pattern supports the NFPA
72 emergency evacuation signal.
An interconnect pin allows multiple detectors to be
connected such that when one units alarms, all units
will sound.
An internal 10 minute timer can be used for a reduced
sensitivity mode.
The RE46C140 is recognized by Underwriters
Laboratories for use in smoke detectors that comply
with specification UL217 and UL268.

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.
