Product details
Overview
TL7770-5IDW from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel power-supply supervisor IC designed for microcomputer/microprocessor reset control, featuring independent 5-V undervoltage sensing (1VSU), programmable overvoltage detection (VSO), true/complementary reset outputs (1RESET/1RESET), 250-mA peak SCR gate drive, and operation across –40°C to 85°C.
For engineers reviewing the TL7770-5IDW datasheet, TL7770-5IDW pinout, TL7770-5IDW application, or TL7770-5IDW equivalent, this device supports precision dual-supply monitoring in industrial embedded systems requiring robust power-on reset, fault-triggered SCR latching, and externally adjustable reset pulse duration via timing capacitor CT.
Technical Context
The TL7770-5IDW integrates two independent voltage supervisors: Channel 1 monitors a fixed 5-V supply at 1VSU (VIT+ = 4.46 V typ, hysteresis = 15 mV), while Channel 2 supports programmable undervoltage sensing at 2VSU (VIT– = 1.47–1.53 V) and overvoltage detection at 2VSO (VT = 2.48–2.68 V). Each channel provides RESIN-triggered time-delayed reset with external CT-based pulse width control.
It employs temperature-compensated bandgap reference circuitry, delivers 2-mA active-low SCR gate drive for false-trigger immunity, and asserts RESET when VCC exceeds 1 V (min), enabling reliable power-up initialization. The device sustains 25-mA continuous SCR drive current and operates across 3.5 V to 18 V supply range.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 3.5 V to 18 V - supports wide-input industrial power rails without external regulation |
| Undervoltage Threshold (1VSU) | 4.46 V (typ) - precise 5-V rail monitoring with ±1.5% tolerance over temperature |
| Overvoltage Threshold (VSO) | 2.48 V to 2.68 V - programmable trip point for external overvoltage protection circuits |
| SCR Drive Peak Current | 250 mA - sufficient to trigger high-current external SCRs during overvoltage faults |
| Reset Activation Voltage | 1 V (min) - ensures early assertion of RESET before microcontroller core logic becomes unstable |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for extended industrial environments without derating |
| Timing Capacitor Range | 10 µF max - sets reset pulse duration (td ≈ 20×10³ × C) for system-level hold-off timing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-supply supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3619-50DBVR | Single-channel, fixed 5-V supervisor; no SCR drive; 200-ms factory-fixed delay; no programmable overvoltage sense | Lacks dual-channel independence and overvoltage-triggered crowbar capability; suitable only for basic reset-only use cases | Select when SCR protection is unnecessary and board space constraints preclude dual discrete supervisors |
| MAX6822TUT+T | Single-channel, 5-V supervisor with watchdog timer; no SCR output; 1.6-V min VCC; no programmable VSO | Includes watchdog functionality but omits overvoltage detection and dual-rail supervision; lower supply voltage support | Choose when system requires periodic software sanity checks alongside reset, not hardware fault containment |
Compared with TL7770-5IDW, TPS3619-50DBVR reduces integration by removing SCR drive and second channel, while MAX6822TUT+T trades dual-supply monitoring for watchdog capability-neither replicates the TL7770-5IDW's combined overvoltage-triggered crowbar and dual independent reset generation.

FAQ
What is the minimum VCC voltage required for TL7770-5IDW to assert RESET?
The TL7770-5IDW asserts RESET when VCC exceeds 1 V (minimum), enabling early reset activation before microcontroller core logic becomes operational. This threshold is guaranteed across –40°C to +85°C and ensures deterministic power-on behavior even during slow-ramp or brownout conditions. The TL7770-5IDW does not function below 1 V, entering undefined operation per absolute maximum ratings.
How does the TL7770-5IDW generate its reset pulse duration?
The TL7770-5IDW uses an external timing capacitor (CT) connected to pins 1CT and 2CT to set reset pulse width: td ≈ 20 × 10³ × C seconds, where C is in farads. For example, a 1-µF capacitor yields ~20 ms pulse duration. The TL7770-5IDW datasheet specifies CT up to 10 µF, supporting pulses from milliseconds to tens of seconds without software intervention.
Can TL7770-5IDW monitor both 5-V and 12-V supplies simultaneously?
Yes - TL7770-5IDW has two independent channels: Channel 1 (1VSU) is factory-configured for 5-V undervoltage detection (VIT+ = 4.46 V), while Channel 2 (2VSU) supports programmable undervoltage sensing and 2VSO enables overvoltage detection for a second rail such as 12 V. The TL7770-5IDW achieves true dual-rail supervision without shared thresholds or timing dependencies.
What is the purpose of the 2-mA active-low SCR drive specification in TL7770-5IDW?
The 2-mA active-low SCR drive in TL7770-5IDW prevents false triggering by holding the SCR gate in a known low state until an overvoltage event occurs and the internal SCR is enabled. This design ensures the external SCR remains fully off during normal operation, eliminating spurious crowbar activation due to noise or transients - a key reliability feature confirmed in TI's SLVS019F datasheet.
Is TL7770-5IDW pin-compatible with TL7770-5CDW?
Yes - TL7770-5IDW and TL7770-5CDW share identical DW (SOIC-16) package dimensions, pinout, and electrical interface. The only difference is temperature rating: TL7770-5IDW is specified for –40°C to +85°C, while TL7770-5CDW is rated for 0°C to +70°C. All timing, threshold, and drive specifications remain functionally identical across both variants, making TL7770-5IDW a direct drop-in replacement in extended-temperature designs.
