Product details
Overview
LM809M3-3.08 from Texas Instruments is a 3-pin SOT-23 microprocessor reset supervisor IC with a factory-trimmed 3.08 V ±3% reset threshold, 240 ms typical reset timeout, and active-low open-drain RESET output. It monitors 3.3 V supply rails in embedded controllers and ensures reliable power-up sequencing in industrial automation systems.
For engineers reviewing the LM809M3-3.08 datasheet, LM809M3-3.08 pinout, LM809M3-3.08 application, or LM809M3-3.08 equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy over temperature (±3% at 25°C, ±5% over –40°C to +105°C), guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC ≥1 V, low 15 µA supply current, and immunity to sub-20 µs VCC transients.
Technical Context
The LM809M3-3.08 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage comparator with hysteresis to detect VCC drops below 3.08 V. Its internal timer guarantees a minimum 140 ms (typical 240 ms) active-low reset pulse after VCC recovers above threshold, ensuring microprocessor core and peripheral initialization completes before release.
It operates across –40°C to +105°C with full electrical specification, features 30 ppm/°C threshold temperature coefficient, and maintains valid RESET output even as VCC declines to 1 V-enabling robust brown-out detection in battery-backed and portable equipment.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 3.08 V ±3% at 25°C; enables precise monitoring of 3.3 V supplies within 90–95% of nominal rail. |

Applications
| Industrial PLC I/O Module | Smart Energy Meter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Power cycling during grid voltage sags or communication interruptions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Monitors 3.3 V MCU supply and asserts active-low RESET until stable for ≥240 ms post-recovery. Use Value: Prevents corrupted firmware execution or EEPROM writes during marginal supply conditions. |
Use Scenario: Battery-backed real-time clock and metrology ASIC operation during AC mains failure. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Detects 3.3 V rail collapse and holds MCU in reset while switching to backup power source. Use Value: Ensures atomic data logging and prevents partial register updates during power transition. |
| Programmable Logic Controller | Factory Automation Sensor Node |
Use Scenario: Hot-swap insertion of modular I/O cards into live backplane. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides localized reset supervision for card-specific MCU, independent of main chassis controller. Use Value: Eliminates cross-talk-induced resets and enables deterministic card initialization sequence. |
Use Scenario: Intermittent solar charging causing repeated VCC ramp-up/ramp-down cycles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Generates clean, debounced reset pulses on each valid VCC rise above 3.08 V with 240 ms timeout. Use Value: Avoids MCU lockup due to insufficient power-up timing margin during unstable input conditions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor reset applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX809TRD3-T | 3.08 V threshold, same SOT-23-3 package, but 140 ms min reset timeout (vs. 240 ms typical for LM809M3-3.08); higher 20 µA supply current. | Less margin for slow-starting peripherals; may require validation if system relies on ≥200 ms reset hold. | Select when footprint compatibility is critical and shorter timeout is acceptable. |
| TPS3808G30DBVR | 3.0 V threshold (not 3.08 V), adjustable delay option, higher 2.5 µA quiescent current, but requires external capacitor for timing. | Threshold mismatch (3.0 V vs. 3.08 V) risks premature release on 3.3 V rails near lower spec limit; adds BOM and layout complexity. | Choose only if programmable delay or ultra-low IQ outweighs fixed-threshold precision requirement. |
Compared with MAX809TRD3-T and TPS3808G30DBVR, the LM809M3-3.08 delivers tighter threshold accuracy at 3.08 V, longer guaranteed reset hold time, and simpler implementation-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, high-volume industrial controllers where 3.3 V rail integrity is mission-critical.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of LM809M3-3.08 and how does it vary with temperature?
The LM809M3-3.08 has a factory-programmed reset threshold of 3.08 V with ±3% tolerance at 25°C. Over the full operating range (–40°C to +105°C), the threshold varies by ±5%, corresponding to 2.92 V minimum and 3.23 V maximum. Its temperature coefficient is specified at 30 ppm/°C, ensuring predictable drift across thermal gradients in industrial enclosures.
Does LM809M3-3.08 provide a reset signal when VCC falls below 1 V?
No-LM809M3-3.08 guarantees valid RESET output only for VCC ≥1 V. Below 1 V, the internal circuitry cannot sustain output drive capability. For applications requiring reset assertion down to 0 V, a 100 kΩ pull-down resistor on the RESET pin is recommended per TI's design guidance to prevent floating states during deep brown-out.
What is the function of the RESET pin on LM809M3-3.08 and what external components are required?
The RESET pin on LM809M3-3.08 is an active-low open-drain output. It requires an external pull-up resistor to a logic-compatible voltage (e.g., 3.3 V or 5 V) to generate a defined high-level signal when not asserted. TI recommends values between 10 kΩ and 100 kΩ depending on bus capacitance and rise-time requirements.
How does LM809M3-3.08 handle fast transients on the VCC line?
LM809M3-3.08 rejects negative-going VCC transients ≤20 µs in duration when the dip is 100 mV below the 3.08 V threshold. This immunity is achieved through internal filtering and comparator hysteresis. For enhanced noise rejection, TI recommends placing a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor as close as possible to the VCC pin.
Is LM809M3-3.08 pin-compatible with other members of the LM809 family?
Yes-LM809M3-3.08 shares identical SOT-23 (DBZ) 3-pin packaging and pinout (GND, RESET, VCC) with all LM809 variants (e.g., LM809M3-2.63, LM809M3-4.63). This allows direct substitution within the same footprint when adjusting reset threshold for different supply rails, provided system timing and voltage margin requirements remain satisfied.
