RE46C120
CMOS Ionization Smoke Detector ASIC
Product Specification
General Description
The RE46C120 is a low power CMOS ionization type
smoke detector IC. With a few external components
this circuit will provide all the required features for an
ionization type smoke detector.
An internal oscillator strobes power to the smoke
detection circuitry for 10.5mS every 1.66 seconds to
keep standby current to a minimum. A check for a low
battery condition is performed every 40 seconds when
in standby. The TONE input allows for selection of a
temporal pattern or a 2/3 duty cycle continuous tone.
The temporal horn pattern supports the NFPA 72
emergency evacuation signal.
Although this device was designed for smoke detection
utilizing an ionization chamber it could be used in a
variety of security applications.
Utilizing low power CMOS technology the RE46C120
was designed for use in smoke detectors that comply
with Underwriters Laboratory Specification UL217 and
UL268.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION and APPLICATION NOTES
Note: All timing references are nominal values. Refer to the electrical specifications for limits
Internal Timing – With external components as indicated on the application drawing the period of the oscillator is
1.67 seconds in standby. Every 1.66 seconds the detection circuitry is powered up for 10.5mS and the status of
the smoke comparator is latched. In addition every 40 seconds the LED driver is turned on for 10.5mS and the
status of the low battery comparator is latched. The smoke comparator status is not checked during the low
battery test, during the low battery horn warning chirp, or when the horn is on due to an alarm condition.
If an alarm condition is detected the oscillator period increases to 41.5mS.
Due to the low currents used in the oscillator the capacitor on pin 12 should be a low leakage type. Oscillator
accuracy will depend mainly on the tolerance of the RBIAS resistor and OSCAP capacitor.
Smoke Detection Circuit – The smoke comparator compares the ionization chamber voltage to a voltage derived
from a resistor divider across VDD. This divider voltage is available externally on pin 13 (VSEN). When smoke is
detected this voltage is internally increased by 130mV nominal to provide hysteresis and make the detector less
sensitive to false triggering.
Pin 13 (VSEN) can be used to modify the internal set point for the smoke comparator by using external resistors
to VDD or VSS. Nominal values for the internal resistor divider are indicated on the block diagram. These internal
resistor values can vary by up to ±20% but the resistor matching will typically be <2% on any one device. A
transmission switch on pin 13 isolates this pin during the low battery test so that the low battery set point will not
be affected if external resistors are used to modify the smoke sensitivity set point.
The guard amplifier and outputs are always active and will be within 50mV of the DETECT input to reduce surface
leakage. The guard outputs also allow for measurement of the DETECT input without loading the ionization
chamber.
Low Battery Detection – An internal Zener reference is compared to the voltage divided VDD supply. The battery
can be checked under load via the LED low side driver output since low battery status is latched at the end of the
10mS LED pulse. Pin 3 (LBADJ) can be used to modify the low battery set point by placing a resistor to VDD or
VSS. Note that the internal resistor string is common to both pin 3 and pin 13 so there will be some interaction
between the two. Modification of the low battery set point may affect the smoke sensitivity setting.
LED Pulse – The LED is pulsed on for 10.5mS every 40S in standby. In alarm the LED is pulsed on for 10.5mS
every 1S.
Testing – At power up all internal registers are reset. By holding pin 12 (OSCAP) low the internal power strobe is
active. Functional testing can be accelerated by driving pin 12 with a 4 kHz square wave however the 10.5mS
strobe period should be maintained for proper operation of the analog circuitry. Please refer to the timing
diagrams.
Horn Tone – Pin 4 selects the NFPA72 horn tone (high or floating) or the 2/3 duty cycle continuous tone (low). If
this pin is externally connected high, use a current limiting resistor from pin 4 to VDD.
Reverse Battery Protection – The RE46c120 internally limits the current from VSS to VDD in the event of
accidental polarity reversal. If an input is connected to VDD it should be done through a resistance of at least
1.5K to limit the reverse current through this path.

Float or connect pin 4 to VDD through 1.5kOhm minimum for NFPA72 temporal horn pattern, connect to VSS for 2/3 duty cycle
continuous tone.
R3, R4 and C1 are typical values and may be adjusted to maximize sound pressure.
C2 should be located as close as possible to the device power pins.
Route the pin 8 PC board trace away from pin 7 to avoid coupling.
