Voltage Regulator with integrated LIN Transceiver
3.7 Linear Regulator
The TH8061 has an integrated low drop linear regulator with a p-channel-MOSFET as driving transistor. This
regulator outputs a voltage of 5V ±2% and a current of ≤50mA within an input voltage range of
5.5V ≤ VSUP ≤ 18V. The current limitation unit limits the output current for short circuits or overload to 100mA
respectively drop-down of the VCC voltage.

3.8 RESET
The RESET pin outputs the reset state of the TH8061. This output is switched from low to high if VSUP is
switched on and VCC>VRES after the time tRes.

Figure 16 - Reset behaviour
If the voltage VCC drops below VRES then the RESET output is switched from high to low after the time trr has been
reached. For this reason short breaks of the VCC voltage and uncontrolled reset generations will be inhibited.
The circuitry of the RESET output driver guarantees, that the reset low level during decreasing of the VCC
voltage will be hold sure (s.a.Figure 17).
