Description

The ELM380 is an 8 pin integrated circuit that is used to provide very long time interval outputs. It is typically used for enabling the charge circuit in Nickel Cadmium battery chargers, but can be easily adapted for many other applications.

Features

• Low power CMOS design - typically 1mA at 5V

• Wide supply range - 3.0 to 5.5 volt operation

• Quick settings of 8 or 14 hours

• Complementary outputs simplify designs

• External reset input for system use

• Internal pullup resistors for switch inputs

• High current drive outputs - up to 25 mA

• Line frequency input for accurate timing

Applications

• Ni-Cd battery chargers

• Yard lighting or watering controls

• Houseplant grow lamp controllers
