Product details
Overview
LP3470M5X-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), and operates down to VCC = 0.5 V - enabling reliable supervision in battery-powered and low-voltage embedded applications.
For engineers reviewing the LP3470M5X-2.93 datasheet, LP3470M5X-2.93 pinout, LP3470M5X-2.93 application, or LP3470M5X-2.93 equivalent, this device delivers precise supply monitoring with immunity to short VCC transients, low 16 µA quiescent current, and SOT-23 (DBV) 5-pin packaging suitable for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LP3470M5X-2.93 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference and comparator architecture to achieve ±1% reset threshold accuracy over –20°C to 85°C. Its reset assertion logic includes built-in hysteresis (15–65 mV) to prevent chatter during supply recovery.
Reset timing is fully decoupled from internal circuitry: the SRT pin accepts an external capacitor to set tRP (2 ms typical with 1 nF), while the open-drain Reset output requires an external pullup resistor (0.68–68 kΩ) to interface with µP reset inputs or logic-level systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 2.93 V ±1% over temperature - ensures deterministic system reset at precisely defined supply level, eliminating manual calibration. |
| Quiescent Current | 16 µA typical at 4.5 V - enables multi-year operation in coin-cell or energy-harvesting applications without compromising supervision integrity. |
| Operating Voltage Range | 0.5 V to 5.5 V - guarantees valid reset assertion even during deep brownout or ultra-low-power wake-up sequences. |
| Reset Output Type | Open-drain, active-low - allows wired-OR configuration, level translation, and compatibility with diverse µP reset input architectures. |
| Reset Timeout Control | Externally programmable via capacitor on SRT pin (tRP = 2000 × C1, C1 in µF) - provides design flexibility without firmware or additional ICs. |
| Hysteresis Voltage | 15–65 mV - prevents oscillatory reset behavior during slow-rising or noisy supply rails. |
| VCC Transient Immunity | Immune to short negative-going VCC glitches - reduces false resets in electrically noisy environments like motor drives or switching supplies. |
Pinout & Package
LP3470M5X-2.93 is housed in a 5-pin SOT-23 (DBV) package measuring 1.60 mm × 2.90 mm, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - SRT | Reset timeout programming input | Connect external capacitor to GND to set tRP; floating disables timeout delay - enables hardware-configurable reset hold time without software intervention. |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for internal reference and comparator; must be low-impedance to ensure threshold accuracy and noise immunity. |
| 3 - VCC1 | Internal supply tie | Must be connected directly to VCC (Pin 4); not user-accessible - ensures internal bias generation remains synchronized with monitored supply. |
| 4 - VCC | Supply voltage monitor input | Monitored rail; reset asserts when VCC falls below 2.93 V - serves as both power source and supervision target in single-supply systems. |
| 5 - Reset | Open-drain reset output | Active-low signal requiring external pullup; sinks ≤10 mA - interfaces directly with ARM Cortex-M, PIC, MSP430, and other µP reset pins. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±1% reset threshold accuracy | Maintains tight reset window across –20°C to 85°C, eliminating need for derating or margin-based design in industrial temperature ranges. |
| Programmable reset timeout | Enables precise hold-time tuning (e.g., 200 ms with 100 nF) to match µP reset requirements without firmware delays or external timers. |
| 0.5 V minimum operating voltage | Guarantees reset assertion during final stages of battery discharge or low-VIN LDO dropout, preventing undefined µP states. |
| 16 µA typical supply current | Reduces standby power by >90% versus discrete supervisor solutions, critical for IoT edge nodes with multi-year battery life targets. |
| Open-drain output with 10 mA sink capability | Supports direct connection to 1.8 V, 3.3 V, or 5 V logic families using a single pullup resistor - simplifies level-shifting and bus interfacing. |
Applications
| Microprocessor Power-On Reset | Battery-Powered Instrumentation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Fixed 3.3 V threshold; 35 µA IQ; internal 200 ms timeout; no external capacitor option | Lacks programmable delay and tighter 2.93 V threshold - unsuitable where brownout detection must align precisely with 2.93 V LDO output. | Select if board space is constrained and 3.3 V reset suffices; avoid when matching non-standard supply rails or requiring adjustable hold time. |
| MAX6326UT29D3+ | 2.93 V threshold; 1.6 µA IQ; fixed 140 ms timeout; SC70-5 package (smaller footprint) | Lower IQ but no SRT programmability; SC70-5 has higher thermal resistance (RθJA = 290°C/W vs. 171°C/W) - limits power dissipation in sealed enclosures. | Prefer for ultra-low-power wearable designs where timeout is fixed and thermal headroom exists; verify layout cooling for continuous operation. |
Compared with TPS3808G33DBVR and MAX6326UT29D3+, the LP3470M5X-2.93 uniquely balances precision (±1%), ultra-low IQ, and hardware-programmable reset timing in a thermally robust SOT-23 package - making it optimal for cost-sensitive industrial and medical applications requiring exact 2.93 V supervision.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed operating temperature range for LP3470M5X-2.93?
The LP3470M5X-2.93 is specified for operation from –20°C to +85°C, with reset threshold accuracy maintained at ±1% across this full range. This rating is confirmed in Section 6.3 (Recommended Operating Conditions) of the SNVS003G datasheet and applies specifically to the M-suffix variant, distinguishing it from the wider –40°C to +85°C I-suffix versions.
Can LP3470M5X-2.93 be used with a 1.8 V supply rail?
No - the LP3470M5X-2.93 requires VCC ≥ 2.93 V to assert a valid reset; its 2.93 V threshold means it cannot supervise rails below that voltage. For 1.8 V systems, TI recommends the LP3470M5X-1.83 variant (if available) or alternative supervisors like TPS3801K33, which are explicitly rated for lower thresholds.
How do I calculate the reset timeout period for LP3470M5X-2.93?
Use the formula tRP (ms) = 2000 × C1, where C1 is the capacitor value in µF connected between SRT (Pin 1) and GND. For example, a 47 nF capacitor yields tRP = 2000 × 0.047 = 94 ms. This relationship is validated in Section 7.3.1 and Table 6-5 of the LP3470M5X-2.93 datasheet.
What is the maximum allowable pullup resistor value for the Reset pin of LP3470M5X-2.93?
The maximum recommended pullup resistor is 68 kΩ, as stated in Section 7.3.3 and Table 6-5. This ensures the Reset pin achieves a valid logic high under worst-case leakage (6 µA at temperature extremes). Values above 68 kΩ risk insufficient voltage rise, especially at elevated temperatures or with long PCB traces.
Is LP3470M5X-2.93 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes - the /NOPB suffix in LP3470M5X-2.93/NOPB confirms lead-free (Pb-free) construction and full compliance with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The "Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br)" eco plan and "CU SN" lead finish are documented in TI's Package Option Addendum for this orderable part.
