Product details
Overview
LP3470M5-2.93 from Texas Instruments is a micropower voltage supervisor IC designed for power-on-reset (POR) and brownout detection in microprocessor systems. It features a factory-programmed 2.93 V ±1% reset threshold, open-drain active-low reset output, programmable reset timeout via external capacitor (tRP = 2000 × C1), 16 µA typical quiescent current, and valid reset assertion down to VCC = 0.5 V - enabling reliable operation in battery-powered embedded controllers.
For engineers reviewing the LP3470M5-2.93 datasheet, LP3470M5-2.93 pinout, LP3470M5-2.93 application, or LP3470M5-2.93 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specifications, SOT-23-5 pin mapping, real-world use scenarios in portable equipment and industrial microcontrollers, and two validated alternative parts with documented functional and parametric differences.
Technical Context
The LP3470M5-2.93 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference with ±1% threshold accuracy over temperature, coupled with hysteresis (15–65 mV) to prevent chatter during supply recovery. Its internal comparator continuously monitors VCC against the 2.93 V threshold and drives an open-drain N-channel MOSFET output stage.
Reset assertion timing is fully decoupled from internal logic: after VCC falls below threshold, Reset goes low immediately; upon recovery, Reset remains low for a user-defined tRP (1–3.5 ms typical with 1 nF capacitor), independent of VCC slew rate or noise transients - ensuring deterministic system initialization.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.93 V ±1% over –20°C to 85°C - guarantees accurate power-fail detection without calibration. |
| Quiescent Current | 16 µA typical at 4.5 V - enables multi-year battery life in always-on monitoring applications. |
| Minimum Operating VCC | 0.5 V - ensures reset remains valid during deep brownout or ultra-low-power shutdown sequences. |
| Reset Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - allows wired-OR configuration and flexible pullup to any logic rail (0.68–68 kΩ). |
| Reset Timeout Range | 1–3.5 ms (with 1 nF capacitor) - provides precise POR delay tuning without internal RC variation. |
| Hysteresis Voltage | 15–65 mV - prevents oscillation during slow-rising or noisy supply recovery. |
| VCC to Reset Delay | 300 µs max over temperature - ensures fast fault response during rapid supply collapse. |
Pinout & Package
LP3470M5-2.93 is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package measuring 1.60 mm × 2.90 mm, with JEDEC-standard footprint and moisture sensitivity level 1 (260°C peak reflow).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - SRT | Reset timeout programming input | Connect external capacitor (C1) to GND; tRP = 2000 × C1 (ms). Floating = no delay. |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for internal reference and output stage; must be low-impedance. |
| 3 - VCC1 | Internal supply tie | Must be shorted to Pin 4 (VCC); not functional as separate input. |
| 4 - VCC | Supply voltage & threshold monitor | Monitored input; powers internal circuitry and sets reset trigger point at 2.93 V. |
| 5 - Reset | Open-drain reset output | Active-low signal; requires external pullup resistor (typ. 20 kΩ) to host VCC. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±1% reset threshold accuracy | Eliminates need for external trimming or system-level calibration across industrial temperature range. |
| Programmable reset timeout | Enables precise POR delay matching to processor startup requirements using only one passive component. |
| Immunity to short VCC transients | Rejects sub-microsecond glitches without false resets - critical for noisy DC/DC converter outputs. |
| Valid reset down to 0.5 V | Ensures controlled shutdown sequencing even during severe brownout or backup battery switchover. |
| Low 16 µA quiescent current | Reduces standby power in always-on supervisory circuits - e.g., IoT edge nodes with coin-cell backup. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G18DBVR | Fixed 1.8 V threshold; 350 ms factory-programmed delay; 1.4 µA IQ | Not suitable for 2.93 V monitoring; better for ultra-low-power 1.8 V logic domains | Select only if system uses 1.8 V core rail and requires nanowatt standby. |
| MAX6326UT29D3+ | 2.93 V threshold; 140 ms fixed delay; 2.5 µA IQ; push-pull output | Lacks programmable timeout; push-pull eliminates external pullup but limits voltage translation | Choose when board space prohibits external capacitor or pullup resistor. |
Compared with LP3470M5-2.93, TPS3808G18DBVR offers lower quiescent current but cannot monitor 2.93 V rails, while MAX6326UT29D3+ matches the threshold but sacrifices timeout flexibility and requires different output interface design.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage of the LP3470M5-2.93?
The LP3470M5-2.93 has a factory-programmed reset threshold of 2.93 V with ±1% accuracy over the operating temperature range of –20°C to 85°C. This value is laser-trimmed during production and does not require external calibration. The hysteresis is 15–65 mV, ensuring clean release without chatter during supply recovery. LP3470M5-2.93 maintains this specification across its full recommended operating voltage range (0.5 V to 5.5 V).
How do I calculate the reset timeout period for LP3470M5-2.93?
The reset timeout period (tRP) for LP3470M5-2.93 is calculated using the formula tRP (ms) = 2000 × C1 (µF), where C1 is the capacitor connected between Pin 1 (SRT) and GND. For example, a 100 nF capacitor yields 200 ms timeout. LP3470M5-2.93 supports values from 1 ms to >1 s depending on capacitor selection. If no delay is needed, leave SRT floating - LP3470M5-2.93 then asserts reset only while VCC is below threshold.
Does LP3470M5-2.93 require an external pullup resistor on the Reset pin?
Yes, LP3470M5-2.93 has an open-drain Reset output and requires an external pullup resistor to a valid logic rail (typically the same VCC being monitored). The datasheet specifies R1 between 0.68 kΩ and 68 kΩ; 20 kΩ is typical. This resistor ensures a defined logic-high state when Reset is inactive. LP3470M5-2.93's output MOSFET can sink up to 10 mA, so the pullup must limit current accordingly - failure to install it will result in undefined Reset behavior.
Can LP3470M5-2.93 operate reliably at 0.5 V supply voltage?
Yes, LP3470M5-2.93 guarantees valid reset assertion down to VCC = 0.5 V, meaning the Reset output remains actively driven low even as the supply collapses. This capability enables safe shutdown sequencing in systems with backup batteries or energy-harvesting sources. However, the 2.93 V threshold comparison becomes invalid below ~1.2 V; LP3470M5-2.93 continues asserting reset purely as a low-voltage lockout function. Operation at 0.5 V is supported per Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables.
What is the package type and footprint compatibility of LP3470M5-2.93?
LP3470M5-2.93 uses the standard 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package with body dimensions of 1.60 mm × 2.90 mm and JEDEC-compliant pinout. It shares footprint and soldering profile with other SOT-23-5 devices including TLV809, MAX809, and MCP103. The moisture sensitivity level is 1 (unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/60% RH), and peak reflow temperature is 260°C. LP3470M5-2.93 is supplied in 1000-unit small tape-and-reel format (reel width 8.4 mm, quadrant Q3).
