MCP121T-240E

Microchip Tech · Supervisor And Reset ICs · SC-70-3

MCP121T-240E from Microchip Tech, in a SC-70-3. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 RST output Active-low open-drain reset output that is driven low when VDD falls below VTRIP; the MCP121 requires an external pull-up resistor.
2 VDD power_in Positive power supply input; the specified operating voltage range is 1.0 V to 5.5 V.
3 VSS power_in Ground reference pin for the device.
