CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION The A5368CA 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 nosmoke conditions. Every 1.67 seconds, internal power is applied to the entire circuit and a check is made for smoke. Every 24 clock cycles (40 seconds), the LED is pulsed and a check is made for low battery by comparing VDD to an internal reference. Since very-low currents are used in the device, the oscillator capacitor at pin 12 should be a low-leakage type (PTFE, polystyrene, or polypropylene). Detector Circuitry. When smoke is detected, the resistor divider network that sets the sensitivity (smoke trip point) is altered to increase the sensitivity set voltage (pin 13) by typically 130 mV with no external connections to pins 3 or 13. This provides hysteresis and reduces false triggering. An active guard is provided on both pins adjacent to the detector input (pin 15). The voltage at pins 14 and 16 will be within 100 mV of the input. 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 static damage. Alarm Circuitry. If smoke is detected, the oscillator period changes to 40 ms and the horn is enabled. The horn output is typically 0.5 s ON, 0.5 s OFF, 0.5 s ON, 0.5 s OFF, 0.5 s ON, 1.5 s OFF (temporal horn pattern). During the OFF time, smoke is checked and will inhibit further alarm output if smoke is not sensed. During smoke conditions the low battery alarm is inhibited and the LED is driven at a 1 Hz rate. 115 Northeast Cutoff, Box 15036 Worcester, Massachusetts 01615-0036 (508) 853-5000 5368 SMOKE DETECTOR WITH INTERCONNECT AND TIMER I/O. A connection is provided at pin 2 to allow multiple smoke detectors to be commoned. If any single unit detects smoke (I/O is driven high), all connected units will sound their associated horns after a nominal 3 second delay.

An internal timer is provided that can be used in various configurations to allow for a period of reduced smoke detector sensitivity (“hush”). When a high-to-low transition occurs at pin 1, the internal timer is reset, the timer mode enabled, and the circuit reset to a no alarm condition. The LED will flash at a 10 second rate. If the level of smoke is increased such that the reduced sensitivity level is reached, the device will go into the alarm condition. The timer, however, will continue to completion of the nominal 10-1/4 minute period (368 clock cycles). If the timer mode is not used, pin 1 should be tied low. 9V 1 MΩ Low Battery. The low battery threshold is set internally by a voltage divider connected between VDD and VSS. The threshold can be increased by connecting a resistor between pin 3 and VDD. The threshold can be decreased by connecting a resistor between pin 3 and VSS. The battery voltage level is checked every 40 seconds during the 10 mA, 10 ms LED pulse. If an LED is not used, it should be replaced with an equivalent resistor (typically 500 Ω to 1000 Ω) such that the battery loading remains at 10 mA. TYPICAL APPLICATION 50 kΩ Sensitivity Adjust. The detector sensitivity to smoke is set internally by a voltage divider connected between VDD and VSS. The sensitivity can be externally adjusted to the individual characteristics of the ionization chamber by connecting a resistor between pin 13 and VDD, or between pin 13 and VSS. 0.001 µF NOTE 2 Dwg. EC-005A NOTE 1: Use an external resistor to adjust sensitivity for a particular smoke chamber. NOTE 2: Select resistor to reduce sensitivity during timer mode. NOTE 3: A resistor to ground or VDD may be added to this pin to modify low battery voltage threshold. unit. An internal NMOS device acts as a charge dump to aid in applications involving a large (distributed) capacitance on pin 2. The charge dump is activated only on the removal of a local alarm. Testing. On power up, all internal counters are reset. Internal test circuitry allows for low battery check by holding pins 8 and 12 low during power up, then reducing VDD and monitoring HORN1 (pin 10). All functional tests can be accelerated by driving pin 12 with a 2 kHz square wave. The 10 ms strobe period must be maintained for proper operation of the comparator circuitry. 5368 SMOKE DETECTOR WITH INTERCONNECT AND TIMER TIMING DIAGRAMS IN TYPICAL APPLICATION NON-TIMER MODE NO ALARM NO LOW BATTERY STANDBY MODE ALARM NO LOW BATTERY ALARM AND LOW BATTERY NO ALARM LOW BATTERY V12 OSC.
