Product details
Overview
PT7M6832VD3TA3EX from Pericom Semiconductor is an ultra-low-voltage supervisor IC with factory-set 1.575V reset threshold, 210ms timeout period, push-pull active-low RESET output, and operation down to 0.9V VCC. It monitors +1.2V to +1.8V supply rails in microprocessor systems, delivers ±1.5% threshold accuracy, consumes only 7.5μA typical supply current, and is housed in a lead-free SOT23-3L package for portable power-sensitive applications.
For engineers reviewing the PT7M6832VD3TA3EX datasheet, PT7M6832VD3TA3EX pinout, PT7M6832VD3TA3EX application, or PT7M6832VD3TA3EX equivalent, this page provides verified functional identity, exact pin roles, timeout timing behavior, reset assertion logic under brownout, and validated alternative options for low-voltage monitoring in battery-powered embedded systems.
Technical Context
The PT7M6832VD3TA3EX uses an internal 444mV reference voltage with 70ppm/°C temperature coefficient to generate its 1.575V reset threshold via resistor scaling. Its comparator ignores fast VCC transients and asserts RESET when VCC falls below threshold, holding it low for exactly 210ms after VCC recovers above threshold.
No manual reset (MR) or RESET-IN pins are present - this variant implements fixed-threshold supervision only. The push-pull active-low RESET output drives CMOS inputs directly without external pull-up, sourcing ≥0.8×VCC high and sinking ≤0.2×VCC low at rated load, ensuring deterministic reset signaling across its full 0.9–5.5V operating range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 1.575V ±1.5% - ensures reliable detection of 1.6V nominal supply brownout before µP malfunction. |
| Timeout Period | 210ms - guarantees sufficient reset hold time for full microcontroller initialization after power recovery. |
| Supply Current | 7.5μA typ @ 1.2V - enables multi-year battery life in always-on monitoring circuits. |
| VCC Operating Range | 0.9V to 5.5V - supports valid reset assertion even during deep brownout down to sub-1V supply collapse. |
| Output Type | Push-pull active-low - eliminates need for external pull-up; drives RESET line directly to GND or VCC. |
| Reset Propagation Delay | 70μs - ensures rapid response to supply dips without missing critical power-event windows. |
| Hysteresis | 0.75% of VTH - prevents chatter during slow-rising/falling supply edges near threshold. |
Pinout & Package
PT7M6832VD3TA3EX is packaged in a RoHS-compliant, lead-free SOT23-3L surface-mount package (3-pin, 1.3mm × 2.9mm footprint, 1.45mm height), optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts in portable electronics.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Ground reference for internal comparator and output stage; must be connected to system ground plane. |
| 2 | VCC | Monitored supply input and IC power rail; supplies internal reference and logic; operates from 0.9V to 5.5V. |
| 3 | RESET | Active-low push-pull reset output; drives low during fault and remains low for 210ms after VCC recovery. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Factory-trimmed threshold | 1.575V ±1.5% - eliminates external resistor network and calibration effort for 1.6V supply monitoring. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 7.5μA @ 1.2V - reduces standby power in battery-backed systems by >90% vs. legacy supervisors. |
| Dedicated 210ms timeout | Fixed delay per JEDEC JESD78 - meets µP reset timing requirements without external RC components. |
| Brownout immunity | Valid RESET assertion down to VCC = 0.9V - prevents spurious release during partial power collapse. |
| Transient rejection | Immune to <100ns negative VCC spikes - avoids false resets from switching noise or ESD coupling. |
Applications
| Wearable Health Monitor | Industrial Sensor Node |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G15DBVR | 1.5V threshold, 200ms timeout, 1.5μA IQ, SOT23-6 package with MR pin. | Includes manual reset input and lower quiescent current but requires 6-pin layout and external capacitor for timeout. | Select when MR functionality or sub-2μA standby is mandatory; avoid if board space or pin count is constrained. |
| MAX6326UT29D3+ | 2.93V threshold, 200ms timeout, 1.8μA IQ, SOT23-3 package, no MR/RESET-IN. | Higher threshold unsuitable for 1.2–1.8V rails; identical 3-pin footprint but mismatched voltage range. | Not functionally substitutable - threshold deviation exceeds ±10%, violating core design requirement. |
Compared with TPS3808G15DBVR, PT7M6832VD3TA3EX offers tighter threshold tolerance (±1.5% vs. ±2.5%) and pin-compatible simplicity, while MAX6326UT29D3+ fails basic voltage-range compatibility, confirming PT7M6832VD3TA3EX's unique fit for sub-1.6V supply monitoring.

FAQ
What is the minimum VCC required for valid RESET assertion?
PT7M6832VD3TA3EX guarantees valid active-low RESET assertion down to VCC = 0.9V. Below this, the push-pull output enters high-impedance state; however, system-level operation is typically nonfunctional below 0.9V, making this the practical lower limit for supervised operation.
Does this part include a manual reset (MR) input?
No. PT7M6832VD3TA3EX has no MR pin - it is a fixed-threshold, single-supply monitor with only GND, VCC, and RESET pins. Manual reset capability is present only in PT7M6835/6836/6837 (SOT143-4L) variants.
Can the RESET output drive a 10kΩ pull-up to 3.3V?
Yes. The push-pull output sources ≥0.8×VCC high and sinks ≤0.2×VCC low. With VCC = 1.5V, it can sink ≥150μA - sufficient to drive a 10kΩ pull-up to 3.3V while maintaining valid logic levels at the µP RESET pin.
Is the 210ms timeout period adjustable?
No. The 210ms timeout is factory-programmed and unchangeable. It corresponds to the "D3" suffix in the part number and is implemented via on-chip RC timing - no external components or configuration pins affect this value.
