•
The RE46C144 is a low-power, CMOS photoelectrictype smoke detector IC. With minimal external
components, this circuit will provide all the required
features for a photoelectric-type smoke detector.
Internal Power-On Reset
Low Quiescent Current Consumption
ESD Protection on all Pins
Interconnect up to 40 Detectors
10 Minute Timer for Sensitivity Control
75% Duty Cycle Horn Pattern
Internal Low Battery and Chamber Test
Compatible with Allegro A5358
UL Recognized per File S24036
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 100 µs 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 alarm horn pattern utilizes a 75% duty
cycle.
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 RE46C144 device is recognized by
Underwriters Laboratories for use in smoke
detectors that comply with specification UL217 and
UL268.

C3 should be located as close as possible to the device power pins.
2:
C3 is typical for an alkaline battery. This capacitance should be increased to 4.7 µF or greater for a carbon battery.
3:
R10, R11 and C6 are typical values and may be adjusted to maximize sound pressure.

(C1, C2)
The capacitor connected to the C1 pin sets the photo
amplifier gain (high) for the push-to-test and chamber
sensitivity test. The size of this capacitor will depend on
the chamber background reflections. A = 1+(C1/10),
where C1 is expressed in pF. The gain should be
