Product details
Overview
LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB from Texas Instruments is a 3-pin SOT-23 microprocessor supervisory circuit with a factory-programmed 2.93 V reset threshold, active-low RESET output, 240 ms typical reset timeout, 15 µA typical supply current, and operation from 1.2 V to 5.5 V over –40°C to +105°C. It monitors VCC in embedded controllers during power-up, brown-out, and power-down to ensure reliable µP initialization.
For engineers reviewing the LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB datasheet, LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB pinout, LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB application, or LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB equivalent, key selection criteria include precise 2.93 V threshold tolerance (±30 mV at 25°C), guaranteed RESET validity down to VCC ≥ 1 V, immunity to sub-100 mV/20 µs VCC transients, and compatibility with 3.3 V nominal supply rails in industrial automation and portable systems.
Technical Context
The LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB implements a precision voltage comparator with internal reference to monitor VCC against its fixed 2.93 V threshold. When VCC falls below this level, the active-low RESET pin asserts and remains low for a minimum 140 ms-240 ms typical-after VCC rises above threshold.
Its design ensures functional reset assertion even as VCC declines to 1.2 V (min operating), with RESET output sinking up to 1.2 mA while maintaining VOL ≤ 0.3 V. The device uses no external components and requires only a 0.1 µF bypass capacitor on VCC for transient immunity.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.93 V ±30 mV at 25°C; tight tolerance enables accurate monitoring of 3.3 V supplies at ~89% undervoltage. |
| Reset Timeout | 240 ms typical after VCC rise; ensures µP completes boot sequence before release from reset. |
| Supply Current | 15 µA typical at 25°C; supports battery-powered equipment with multi-year runtime. |
| Operating Voltage | 1.2 V to 5.5 V; valid RESET output asserted down to VCC = 1.2 V, enabling robust low-voltage operation. |
| VCC Transient Immunity | Immune to VCC glitches ≤100 mV amplitude and ≤20 µs duration; prevents false resets in noisy environments. |
| Output Type | Active-low open-drain RESET; compatible with standard µP reset inputs requiring pull-up. |

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 | 2.93 V threshold, same SOT-23-3 package, but 1.2 V min VCC and 120 ms min timeout (vs. 140 ms min for LM809). | Lower minimum VCC allows earlier reset assertion during deep brown-out; shorter timeout may not meet all µP requirements. | Select MAX809TRD3+T only if system timing budget permits <240 ms reset hold and deeper undervoltage detection is needed. |
| TPS3808G12QDBVRQ1 | Adjustable threshold (via external resistor), 25 µA supply current, AEC-Q100 qualified, but requires external components. | Designed for automotive safety-critical systems; lacks factory-trimmed simplicity and ultra-low quiescent current of LM809. | Choose TPS3808G12QDBVRQ1 when AEC-Q100 compliance or programmable threshold is mandatory; otherwise LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB offers lower BOM count and power. |
Compared with MAX809TRD3+T and TPS3808G12QDBVRQ1, LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB delivers optimal balance of precision threshold, zero-component integration, lowest quiescent current, and industrial temperature range-making it ideal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained, and battery-aware embedded systems where fixed 2.93 V supervision suffices.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB and how tightly is it specified?
The LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB has a factory-programmed reset threshold of 2.93 V, with a maximum deviation of ±30 mV at 25°C and ±70 mV over the full –40°C to +105°C operating range. This precision enables accurate supervision of 3.3 V supplies at approximately 89% of nominal voltage, as confirmed in TI's SNVS052E datasheet Section 6.5.
Does LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB assert reset when VCC falls below 1 V?
No - LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB guarantees valid RESET output only for VCC ≥ 1.2 V (minimum recommended operating voltage). Below 1.2 V, the internal circuitry cannot sustain proper comparator operation or output drive strength. The datasheet explicitly states RESET is ensured valid for VCC ≥ 1 V, but functional specification begins at 1.2 V per Recommended Operating Conditions.
What is the minimum reset pulse width guaranteed by LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB across temperature?
LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB guarantees a minimum reset active timeout of 140 ms over –40°C to +85°C, and 100 ms over +85°C to +105°C. The typical value is 240 ms at 25°C. These values are measured from the moment VCC rises above the threshold until RESET deasserts, as defined in Electrical Characteristics Table 6.5.
Can LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB be used with a 3.0 V nominal supply?
Yes - LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB is explicitly designed for 3.0 V and 3.3 V systems. Its 2.93 V threshold corresponds to ~98% of 3.0 V and ~89% of 3.3 V, aligning with industry-standard brown-out detection levels. TI's Application Note SNVS052E Table 1 confirms 2.93 V as a standard option for both 3 V and 3.3 V supply monitoring.
Is LM809M3X-2.93/NOPB pin-compatible with other LM809 variants like LM809M3X-3.08/NOPB?
Yes - all LM809M3X-x.x/NOPB variants share identical SOT-23 (DBZ) 3-pin packaging, pinout (GND–RESET–VCC), and footprint. Only the factory-trimmed reset threshold differs; electrical and mechanical compatibility is maintained across the family, enabling drop-in replacement where threshold requirements match.
