DESCRIPTION

The L4947PD is a monolithic integrated circuit in HiPSO package specially designed to provide a stabilized supply voltage for automotive and in dustrial electronic systems. Thanks to its very low voltage drop, in automotive applications the L4947PD can work correctly even during the cranking phase, when the battery voltage could fall as low as 6V. Furthermore, it incorporates a complete range of protection circuits against the dangerous overvoltages always present on the battery rail of the car. The reset function makes the device particularly suited to supply microprocessor based systems : a signal is available (after an externally programmable delay) to reset the microprocessor at power-on phase ; at power-off, this signal becomes low inhibiting the microprocessor.
