Hi All: Just ran into a snafu with one of our pic based loggers--had specified a National LMC7225IM micro-power comparator (open drain output) in a SOT-23-5 package, and all my normal vendors are saying buy a reel of 1000 and wait 8-12 weeks. I need TWENTY as soon as I can get them--or a pin for pin equivalent--or another solution to drop into the existing hardware for low battery detection. I had tried a Telcom TC54VN (a three pin 2.7 volt voltage detector), but the input impedance is way too low--I need to run 100uA though the input divider just to keep the thing from oscillating--and this almost triples my overall power draw for the whole logger. Key requirements are: really low power, SOT-23-5 compatible or easily kludgeable in the available space--and no re-design of the PCB's. Input is 6 to 15 volts DC, with the desired trip point at 6.1 volts. Open drain output is not mandatory. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks Kelly William K.
