Product details
Overview
TL7700CPS from Texas Instruments is a bipolar supply-voltage supervisor IC used as a reset controller in microcontroller and FPGA systems. It features adjustable sense voltage (≥0.5 V), 1.0% tolerance at 25°C, wide 1.8–40 V supply range, –40°C to 85°C operation, and open-collector RESET output for power-on reset generation in industrial control and embedded computing.
For engineers reviewing the TL7700CPS datasheet, TL7700CPS pinout, TL7700CPS application, or TL7700CPS equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, SO-8 package layout, timing-capacitor-based pulse duration control, hysteresis configuration via external resistors, and real-world reset supervision use cases - all grounded in TI's production-grade SLVS220G datasheet.
Technical Context
The TL7700CPS integrates a precision 500 mV temperature-compensated reference, fast comparator, constant-current timing generator (ICT = 15 µA typ), and npn open-collector output stage. Its SENSE input accepts externally divided voltages ≥0.5 V, with hysteresis set by resistor R1 and sense threshold by R1+R2 divider network.
RESET assertion occurs when SENSE falls below the threshold; deassertion requires both threshold crossing and CT capacitor discharge delay. The device operates without external clock or biasing components, delivering deterministic reset pulse width (tpo = Ct × 10⁵ s) across its full 1.8–40 V supply range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Sense Threshold Voltage | 500 mV typical at 25°C; ±10 mV over –40°C to 85°C; sets minimum detectable supply voltage via external resistor divider. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.8 V to 40 V; supports direct connection to unregulated rails in automotive, industrial, and AC/DC adapter applications. |
| Timing Capacitor Current | 15 µA typical; charges external CT to generate precise RESET pulse duration (tpo = Ct × 10⁵ s). |
| Reset Output Type | npn open-collector; requires external pullup; sinks up to 3 mA while asserting low; compatible with TTL/CMOS logic inputs. |
| Supply Current | 0.6 mA typical at VCC = 40 V; enables battery-backed and low-power portable system monitoring. |
| Hysteresis Control | Set via R1: Vhys = Is × R1 ≈ 2.5 µA × R1; prevents chatter during noisy or slowly ramping supply transitions. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C; qualified for industrial and extended commercial environments without derating. |
Pinout & Package
TL7700CPS is housed in an 8-pin SO (SOIC) package (PS), body size 6.20 mm × 5.30 mm, RoHS-compliant, tape-and-reel packaged (80 pcs/tube), with standard JEDEC SOIC footprint and lead finish NIPDAU.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Power supply input | Accepts 1.8–40 V; powers internal reference, comparator, and timing circuitry; no external decoupling required but recommended. |
| SENSE | Analog voltage monitor input | Compares external divided rail against 500 mV reference; hysteresis and threshold configured via two external resistors. |
| CT | Timing capacitor connection | Charged at 15 µA to set RESET pulse width; open-circuit enables comparator-only mode; must not be driven externally. |
| GND | Ground reference | Low-impedance return path for internal circuits; critical for noise immunity and accurate threshold detection. |
| RESET | Open-collector reset output | Active-low signal; sinks current when asserted; requires external pullup resistor to host logic rail (e.g., 10 kΩ to 5 V or 3.3 V). |
| NC (Pins 3, 6, 7) | No internal connection | Unbonded die pads; electrically isolated; may be left floating or tied to GND for mechanical stability only. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Adjustable sense voltage | Configurable above 0.5 V using two external resistors - enables monitoring of any system rail (1.2 V, 3.3 V, 5 V, 12 V, 24 V) without redesign. |
| 1.0% threshold tolerance | Ensures reliable reset activation across temperature and process variation - eliminates need for calibration in volume production. |
| Programmable hysteresis | Prevents false resets on noisy or ripple-prone supplies by setting Vhys = 2.5 µA × R1 - avoids oscillation during brownout recovery. |
| Wide supply range (1.8–40 V) | Supports direct interface to unregulated inputs - removes need for pre-regulation in battery, automotive, and industrial power systems. |
| Low quiescent current | 0.6 mA at 40 V enables always-on supervision in energy-constrained applications such as portable instrumentation and remote sensors. |
Applications
| Industrial Power Monitoring | FPGA Configuration Reset |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar supply-voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G01DBVR | MOSFET-based CMOS supervisor; fixed 1.0 V threshold; 360 ns propagation delay; 1.8–6 V supply range. | Lacks adjustable threshold/hysteresis; requires separate voltage divider for >1.0 V rails; optimized for ultra-low-power portable designs. | Choose TPS3808G01DBVR only when fixed-threshold, sub-1 µA IQ, and fast response are prioritized over flexibility. |
| MAX6816EUS+T | Single-channel debounced pushbutton supervisor; 1.25 V fixed threshold; integrated ESD protection; 2.7–5.5 V range. | Designed for manual reset inputs, not supply monitoring; no CT timing or adjustable sense capability. | Select MAX6816EUS+T for user-initiated reset functions - not as a functional replacement for TL7700CPS power supervision. |
Compared with TPS3808G01DBVR and MAX6816EUS+T, TL7700CPS uniquely supports wide-input (1.8–40 V), user-adjustable threshold/hysteresis, and programmable reset pulse width - making it irreplaceable in industrial and automotive supply-monitoring roles where flexibility and ruggedness are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the exact function of the CT pin on the TL7700CPS?
The CT pin on the TL7700CPS connects to an internal 15 µA constant-current source that charges an external capacitor to determine RESET pulse duration (tpo = Ct × 10⁵ s). When CT is left open, the device operates as an adjustable-threshold comparator without timing delay. Driving CT externally is prohibited due to internal structure limitations.
Can the TL7700CPS monitor a 12 V supply, and how is the sense voltage set?
Yes, the TL7700CPS can monitor a 12 V supply using a resistor divider on the SENSE pin. With a typical 500 mV internal reference, a 23.5 kΩ (R1) and 1.2 kΩ (R2) divider sets the trip point to ~12.0 V (Vs' = 500 mV × (23.5k + 1.2k)/1.2k). Hysteresis is added via R1 to prevent noise-induced resets.
Does the TL7700CPS require an external pullup resistor on the RESET pin?
Yes, the TL7700CPS RESET pin is an npn open-collector output and requires an external pullup resistor to the target logic rail (e.g., 10 kΩ to 3.3 V or 5 V). Without it, the output cannot drive high, and system reset signaling fails. TI's datasheet Figure 21 confirms this requirement for all operating conditions.
What is the maximum allowable supply voltage for the TL7700CPS, and what happens beyond it?
The absolute maximum supply voltage for the TL7700CPS is 41 V. Operation above this risks permanent damage per TI's Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Within the recommended 1.8–40 V range, the device maintains full specification compliance including 1.0% sense tolerance and stable timing behavior.
How does temperature affect the sense voltage accuracy of the TL7700CPS?
The TL7700CPS sense voltage drifts ±10 mV across –40°C to +85°C (490–510 mV), thanks to its internal temperature-compensated 1.5 V reference. This 2% total drift ensures reliable reset triggering even under extreme ambient conditions - validated in Figure 4 of the SLVS220G datasheet.
