Product details
Overview
TLC7703IPW from Texas Instruments is a micropower supply voltage supervisor IC with fixed 2.63 V sense threshold, active-low RESET output, programmable delay via external capacitor, and operation across 2 V to 6 V supply range. It provides power-on reset generation, undervoltage supervision, and power-down control for static RAM with battery backup-used in medical imaging systems and industrial microcontroller-based equipment.
For engineers reviewing the TLC7703IPW datasheet, TLC7703IPW pinout, TLC7703IPW application, or TLC7703IPW equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, TSSOP-8 package details, functional timing behavior, real-world use cases in power-fail retention and embedded reset management, and validated alternative parts for design continuity.
Technical Context
The TLC7703IPW integrates a precision temperature-compensated voltage reference and internal timer circuitry to generate a user-defined reset delay (td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT) after VDD stabilizes above 2 V. Its SENSE input monitors system rail voltage against a fixed 2.63 V threshold with 70 mV hysteresis to prevent chatter during brownout recovery.
It supports dual-mode reset assertion: active when VDD ≥ 1 V at power-up, and re-triggered when SENSE falls below threshold. The CONTROL pin enables active-high RESET output and coordinates chip-select disable for battery-backed SRAM during power loss-requiring separate battery-supplied VDD for that function.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Sense Threshold Voltage | 2.63 V ±0.07 V - precise undervoltage detection point for 3.3 V systems with margin |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2 V to 6 V - supports single-cell Li-ion, 3.3 V, and 5 V logic rails without external regulation |
| Max Supply Current | 16 µA - enables multi-year battery life in always-on monitoring applications |
| Reset Delay Time | Programmable via external capacitor (e.g., 100 nF → 2.1 ms) - ensures reliable system initialization timing |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for commercial and industrial ambient environments |
| Output Drive Strength | ±2 mA - sufficient to directly drive microcontroller RESET pins and small logic loads |
| Power-Up Reset Voltage | 1 V - guarantees early assertion of RESET before core logic becomes operational |
Pinout & Package
TLC7703IPW is housed in an 8-pin TSSOP (PW) package, 3.0 mm × 4.4 mm, 0.65 mm pitch, RoHS-compliant, with moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1 and peak reflow rating of 260°C.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | SENSE | Voltage monitor input tied to regulated supply rail; triggers reset when <2.63 V |
| 2 | GND | Ground reference for all internal circuits and output drivers |
| 3 | RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output; requires external pull-up for logic-level compatibility |
| 4 | CONTROL | Input selecting RESET polarity: low = active-high RESET, high = active-low RESET |
| 5 | VDD | Primary power supply input (2–6 V); powers internal reference, timer, and outputs |
| 6 | RESIN | Manual reset input; low pulse forces immediate RESET assertion regardless of SENSE state |
| 7 | CT | Capacitor connection for programmable delay timing; sets td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT |
| 8 | RESET | Complementary active-high reset output; synchronized with RESET pin |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Power-on reset generator | Asserts RESET at VDD ≥1 V - ensures deterministic startup before MCU clock stabilization |
| Automatic reset on voltage drop | Re-triggers RESET when SENSE falls below 2.63 V - prevents erratic operation during brownouts |
| Programmable delay time | External capacitor sets delay from ~1 ms to seconds - eliminates need for external timers or firmware delays |
| Defined RESET output down to VDD ≥1 V | Maintains valid logic levels even during deep brownout - critical for fail-safe shutdown sequencing |
| Power-down control for SRAM | Uses CONTROL + RESET to disable chip select during power loss - preserves data in battery-backed memory |
Applications
| Medical Imaging Power Sequencing | Industrial PLC Reset Management |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC7703IPWR | Same die, tape-and-reel packaging (2000 pcs), identical electrical specs and pinout | No functional difference; selected for automated SMT assembly vs. tube-packaged TLC7703IPW | Choose TLC7703IPWR for high-volume production; TLC7703IPW for prototyping or low-volume builds |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Fixed 3.3 V threshold, 350 nA quiescent current, 200 ms factory-fixed delay, SOT-23-6 | Lacks manual reset (RESIN), CONTROL pin, and programmable delay; smaller footprint but less flexible | Select when ultra-low power and compact size outweigh need for delay tuning or SRAM power-down control |
Compared with TLC7703IPW, TLC7703IPWR offers identical functionality in optimized packaging for volume manufacturing, while TPS3808G33DBVR trades configurability for lower IQ and smaller size-making it suitable only where fixed delay and no SRAM coordination are acceptable.

FAQ
What is the exact sense threshold voltage of the TLC7703IPW?
The TLC7703IPW has a fixed negative-going input threshold voltage (VIT–) of 2.63 V, with a typical tolerance of ±0.07 V over the full operating temperature range (–40°C to +85°C). This value is factory-trimmed and does not require external resistor programming like the TLC7701.
Does the TLC7703IPW support active-high RESET output?
Yes, the TLC7703IPW supports active-high RESET output via the CONTROL pin: when CONTROL is driven low, the RESET pin becomes active-high while RESET remains active-low. This dual-output configuration enables direct interface with MCUs requiring either polarity reset signal.
How is the reset delay time set on the TLC7703IPW?
The reset delay time (td) on the TLC7703IPW is set by an external capacitor connected to the CT pin, using the formula td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT. For example, a 100 nF capacitor yields a typical delay of 2.1 ms. No external resistors or clock sources are required.
Can the TLC7703IPW be used to protect battery-backed SRAM during power loss?
Yes, the TLC7703IPW includes dedicated logic for SRAM power-down control: when CONTROL is grounded and VDD drops, RESET goes active-high to disable the memory's chip select (CS), preserving data integrity. This function requires VDD to be supplied from the backup battery during main power loss.
What is the maximum supply current consumption of the TLC7703IPW?
The TLC7703IPW draws a maximum supply current (IDD) of 16 µA under normal operation (VDD = 5 V, outputs open), and up to 150 µA during the reset delay period (IDD(d)) when the internal timer is active-enabling multi-year operation from small coin cells.
