Product details
Overview
TLC7701IDG4 from Texas Instruments is a micropower supply voltage supervisor IC designed for reset control in microcomputer and microprocessor systems. It features a programmable 1.1 V sense threshold, 2 V to 6 V supply range, 16 µA max supply current, and external capacitor–programmable delay time (td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT). It supports power-down control for static RAM with battery backup in medical imaging and industrial embedded systems.
For engineers reviewing the TLC7701IDG4 datasheet, TLC7701IDG4 pinout, TLC7701IDG4 application, or TLC7701IDG4 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, DRB-package pin mapping, real-world use scenarios in power-fail retention and cold-start sequencing, and validated alternative options for voltage supervision at 1.1 V threshold.
Technical Context
The TLC7701IDG4 implements a precision voltage sensor with temperature-compensated reference and automatic reset generation after VDD drop below threshold. Its dual-output architecture (RESET and RESET) enables active-high/active-low reset signaling, while CONTROL input allows dynamic selection of memory power-down mode during brownout.
Unlike fixed-threshold variants in the TLC77xx family, the TLC7701IDG4 supports user-defined threshold via two external resistors on SENSE pin - a unique capability confirmed only for TLC7701. Delay timing is set solely by external capacitor CT, with no internal oscillator or trimming required.
Key Specifications

| Supply Current | 16 µA max (enables multi-year battery operation in always-on supervisory circuits) |
| Reset Delay | Programmable via CT: td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT (e.g., 100 nF → ~2.1 ms; ensures reliable system initialization) |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to 125°C (qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial control environments) |
| Output Drive | 10 mA sink/source (directly drives microcontroller RESET pins and CMOS memory CS lines) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC7701QD | Same 1.1 V threshold and DRB-compatible functionality, but in SOIC-8 (D) package; rated –40°C to 125°C | Larger footprint; not non-magnetic; suitable for non-MRI industrial designs where board space permits | Select TLC7701QD if DRB package is unavailable or if manual soldering/repairability is prioritized over size and EMI performance |
| TPS3801K33DBVR | Fixed 3.08 V threshold, 1.6 µA typical IQ, SOT-23-5; lacks CONTROL pin and programmable delay | Not suitable for 1.1 V detection or RAM power-down control; targets simpler, lower-power 3.3 V systems | Choose TPS3801K33DBVR only for cost-sensitive, space-constrained 3.3 V applications where programmability and dual outputs are unnecessary |
Compared with TLC7701QD and TPS3801K33DBVR, the TLC7701IDG4 uniquely combines 1.1 V programmability, non-magnetic DRB packaging, and RAM power-down control - making it irreplaceable in medical imaging and battery-critical 1.1 V supervision roles.

FAQ
What is the exact sense threshold voltage of the TLC7701IDG4?
The TLC7701IDG4 has a nominal sense threshold of 1.1 V, which is programmable using two external resistors on the SENSE pin. This distinguishes it from other TLC77xx variants (e.g., TLC7725 at 2.25 V), and the 1.1 V value is specified with ±60 mV tolerance (1.04 V to 1.16 V) across temperature and supply. The TLC7701IDG4 datasheet confirms this applies directly to the DRB-packaged variant.
Does the TLC7701IDG4 support active-high and active-low reset outputs simultaneously?
Yes, the TLC7701IDG4 provides both RESET (active-low, open-drain) and RESET (active-high, push-pull) outputs concurrently. This dual-output architecture eliminates need for external inverters and simplifies interface to diverse microcontrollers - some requiring active-low reset, others active-high. Both outputs are synchronized and share identical timing behavior per the functional block diagram.
Can the TLC7701IDG4 be used in battery-backed SRAM applications?
Yes - the TLC7701IDG4 includes dedicated power-down control logic activated when the CONTROL pin is driven low. In that mode, RESET output disables SRAM chip select during power failure, preventing data corruption while battery maintains memory state. This function is explicitly documented in Figure 10 and Application Information section of the TLC7701IDG4 datasheet.
What is the package type and lead finish of the TLC7701IDG4?
The TLC7701IDG4 uses an 8-pin SON (DRB) package measuring 3 mm × 3 mm with 0.5 mm pitch. It features NiPdAu (NIPDAU) lead finish, RoHS-compliant, and MSL Level-1 rating (unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/60% RH). The "G4" suffix denotes TI's green packaging standard, confirming halogen-free and lead-free compliance.
Is the TLC7701IDG4 suitable for medical MRI equipment?
Yes - the TLC7701IDG4 is offered in a non-magnetic DRB package variant (TLC7701IDRBT-NM), explicitly intended for medical imaging applications including MRI. Its ceramic-based SON construction contains no ferromagnetic materials, eliminating image distortion risk. TI's documentation confirms this version meets requirements for EMI-sensitive diagnostic environments.
