A5349: AC Ionization Smoke Detector with Interconnect and Timer

A5349
AC Ionization Smoke Detector
with Interconnect and Timer
Features and Benefits
Description
▪ Low average standby current
▪ Interconnect up to 125 detectors
▪ Piezoelectric horn driver
▪ Guard outputs for detector input
▪ Pulse testing for low supply
▪ Power-on reset (POR)
▪ Internal reverse supply protection
▪ Timer (Hush) mode for enabling reduced sensitivity period
▪ Built-in hysteresis reduces false triggering
The A5349 is a low-current, CMOS circuit providing all of
the required features for an ionization-type smoke detector.
A networking capability allows as many as 125 units to be
interconnected so that if any unit senses smoke all units
will sound their alarm. In addition, special features are
incorporated to facilitate alignment and test of the finished
smoke detector.
The internal oscillator and timing circuitry keep standby power
to a minimum by powering down the device for 1.66 seconds
and sensing for smoke for only 10 ms. Every 24 on-off cycles,
a check is made for a low supply condition. By substituting
other types of sensors or a switch for the ionization detector,
this very-low–power device can be used in numerous other
safety/security applications.
Package: 16-pin DIP (suffix A)
The A5349 is supplied in a low-cost 16-pin dual in-line plastic
package (DIP). It is rated for continuous operation over the
temperature range of –10°C to 60°C. The Pb (lead) free version
(suffix –T) has 100% matte tin leadframe plating.

Circuit Description
The A5349 is a low-current, CMOS circuit providing all of the
required features for an ionization-type smoke detector.
Oscillator
An internal oscillator operates with a period of 1.67 seconds
during no-smoke conditions. Every 1.67 seconds, internal power
is applied to the entire circuit for 10 ms and a check is made for
smoke. Every 24 clock cycles (approximately 40 seconds), a
check is made for low supply by comparing VDD to an internal
reference. Because very-low currents are used in the device, the
oscillator capacitor at the OSC CAP pin should be a low-leakage
type (PTFE, polystyrene, or polypropylene).
Detector Circuitry
When the voltage on the DETECT IN pin is less than the voltage on the SENSITIVITY SET pin, the A5349 evaluates this as a
smoke condition. During a smoke condition, the resistor divider
network that sets the sensitivity (also referred to as the smoke trip
point) is altered to increase VSENSITIVITYSET by 130 mV typical
(with no external connections on the SENSITIVITY SET pin).
This provides hysteresis and reduces false triggering.
An active guard is provided on GUARD1 and GUARD2, the two
pins adjacent to the detector input, the DETECT IN pin. VGUARD1
and VGUARD2 will be within 100 mV of VDETECTIN. This will
keep surface leakage currents to a minimum and provide a
method of measuring the input voltage without loading the ionization chamber. The active guard amplifier is not power strobed
and thus provides constant protection from surface leakage
currents. The detector input has internal diode protection against
electrostatic damage.
Alarm Circuitry
If smoke is detected, the oscillator period changes to 40 ms and
the horn is enabled. The horn output is typically 160 ms on,
80 ms off. During the off-time, smoke is checked and further
alarm output will be inhibited if smoke is not sensed. During a
smoke condition, the low-supply alarm is inhibited and the LED
is turned off until the condition is removed.
Sensitivity Adjust
The detector sensitivity to smoke is set internally by a voltage
divider connected between VDD and VSS. The sensitivity can,
however, be externally adjusted to the individual characteristics
of the ionization chamber by connecting a resistor between the
SENSITIVITY SET pin and either the VDD or VSS pins.

AC Ionization Smoke Detector
with Interconnect and Timer
A5349
With no external connections on the SENSITIVITY SET pin,
while the A5349 is checking for smoke:
VSENSITIVITYSET = VDD / 2 .
To increase sensitivity, a resistor can be connected between
SENSITIVITY SET and VDD, with the value:
RSENSITIVITYSET = 1.1E6 × K / (1 – K) ,
where
K = VDD / VSENSITIVITYSET – 1 .
To decrease sensitivity, a resistor can be connected between
SENSITIVITY SET and VSS, with the value:
RSENSITIVITYSET = 1.1E6 × K / (1 – K) ,
where
K = 1 / (VDD / VSENSITIVITYSET – 1) .
Low Supply
The low supply condition threshold is set internally by a voltage
divider connected between VDD and VSS. The threshold can
be externally adjusted by connecting a resistor between the
LOW-V SET pin and either the VDD or VSS pins.
To increase the threshold, a resistor can be connected between
LOW-V SET and VSS. Given an initial threshold, V(th)init (nominally 7.5 V), and a target threshold, V(th)set , the resistor should
have the value:
RLOWVSET = 600E3 × K / (1 – 0.375 × K) ,
where
K = 1 / (V(th)set / [0.727 × V(th)init] – 1) .
To decrease the threshold, a resistor can be connected between
LOW-V SET and VDD. Given an initial threshold, V(th)init (nominally 7.5 V), and a target threshold, V(th)set , the resistor should
have the value:
RLOWVSET = 960E3 × K / (0.6 – 1.6 × K) ,
where
K = V(th)set / (0.727 × V(th)init) – 1 .
The supply voltage level is checked approximately every 40
seconds.
Timer (Hush) Mode
An internal timer is provided that can be used in various configurations to allow a period of reduced smoke detector sensitivity,
referred to as Timer (or Hush) mode.
In normal operation, when a high-to-low transition occurs at the
TIMER START pin, the internal timer is reset, Timer mode is
enabled, and the circuit resets to a no-alarm condition. During
Timer mode, which is active for approximately 10.25 minutes
(368 clock cycles), the TIMER OUT pin is pulled down to VSS
every time the A5349 makes a check for smoke. A resistor connected between the TIMER OUT and the SENSITIVITY SET
pins will decrease the detector’s sensitivity to smoke during
this time, and allow the user to hush alarms caused by nuisance
smoke or steam (such as from cooking). At the end of Timer
mode, the device signals its completion with two 10-ms horn
chirps, 1.67 seconds apart.
While the Timer mode is active, the LED blinks, remaining on
for approximately 8.7 s and off for approximately 1.67 s. If the
level of smoke increases such that the reduced-sensitivity level
is reached, the A5349 will signal an Alarm condition. If such an
Alarm condition does occur, the timer will still continue to completion of its cycle. If Timer mode will not be used, the TIMER
START pin should be tied to VSS.
I/O
A connection to the I/O pin allows multiple smoke detectors to
be interconnected. If any single unit detects smoke, its I/O pin is
driven high (after a nominal 3 s delay), and all connected units
will sound their associated horns. The LED remains on constantly
when an alarm is signaled from an interconnected unit, and any
local alarm condition causes the I/O pin to be ignored as an input.
When in Timer mode, the device will still signal an alarm if I/O is
driven high externally. This pin has an on-chip pulldown device
and must be left unconnected if not used.
Testing
On power-up, all internal counters are reset. Internal test circuitry allows low supply check by holding the FEEDBACK and
OSC CAP pins low during power-up, then reducing VDD and
monitoring the HORN1 pin. HORN1 will be driven high when
VDD falls below the low-supply threshold. All functional tests can
be accelerated by driving the OSC CAP pin with a 2 kHz square
wave. The 10 ms strobe period must be maintained for proper
operation of the comparator circuitry.
