Product details
Overview
TLC7703QD from Texas Instruments is a micropower supply voltage supervisor IC with fixed 2.63 V sense threshold, operating from 2 V to 6 V supply, delivering ≤16 µA quiescent current and –40°C to 125°C extended temperature range. It provides power-on reset generation, undervoltage monitoring, programmable delay via external capacitor, and power-down control for battery-backed static RAM in microprocessor systems.
For engineers reviewing the TLC7703QD datasheet, TLC7703QD pinout, TLC7703QD application, or TLC7703QD equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SOIC-8 package details, functional block context, real-world use cases in industrial and automotive power management, and two validated alternative supervisors with documented threshold and timing differences.
Technical Context
The TLC7703QD implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference with temperature compensation to maintain stable 2.63 V (±3%) negative-going input threshold at SENSE across –40°C to 125°C. Its internal timer generates a user-programmable reset delay (td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT) after voltage recovery, ensuring reliable system initialization.
It features dual active-low and active-high RESET outputs, totem-pole drive capability (±2 mA), defined output behavior down to VDD ≥1 V, and logic-controlled power-down support for static RAM retention during brownout-enabled by CONTROL pin assertion to ground.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLC7703IP | Same 2.63 V threshold and SOIC-8 footprint, but rated for –40°C to 85°C only | Not suitable for under-hood or high-ambient industrial deployments requiring 125°C operation | Select TLC7703IP only for commercial-grade applications where extended temperature is unnecessary |
| TPS3808G33 | 3.3 V fixed threshold, 1.8 µA typical supply current, 200 ms factory-fixed delay (no capacitor option) | Lacks programmable delay and CONTROL pin for SRAM power-down; optimized for ultra-low-power, fixed-timing use | Choose TPS3808G33 when minimal current draw dominates over flexibility in delay or memory control |
Compared with TLC7703IP, the TLC7703QD adds full automotive-grade temperature qualification and identical functionality; versus TPS3808G33, it trades lower quiescent current for field-programmable delay and integrated SRAM power-down logic-making it preferable for systems requiring timing adaptability and battery-backed memory control.

FAQ
What is the exact sense threshold voltage of the TLC7703QD?
The TLC7703QD has a fixed negative-going input threshold voltage of 2.63 V, with a guaranteed range of 2.56 V to 2.70 V across its full –40°C to 125°C operating temperature range. This value is factory-trimmed and temperature-compensated using an internal bandgap reference, and applies specifically to the SENSE pin under recommended operating conditions (VDD = 2 V to 6 V). The TLC7703QD does not support external resistor programming like the TLC7701.
Does the TLC7703QD support programmable reset delay, and how is it implemented?
Yes, the TLC7703QD supports programmable reset delay via an external capacitor connected to the CT pin (Pin 8 in SOIC-8). The delay time is calculated as td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT, where CT is in farads and td is in seconds-for example, a 100 nF capacitor yields a nominal 2.1 ms delay. This delay begins after the SENSE voltage rises above the 2.63 V threshold and ensures stable system reset before releasing the processor.
How does the CONTROL pin function in the TLC7703QD?
The CONTROL pin on the TLC7703QD determines the polarity of the RESET output. When CONTROL is tied to GND, RESET becomes active-high-enabling direct connection to the chip-select (CS) input of battery-backed static RAM to disable memory access during power failure. When CONTROL is left open or pulled high, RESET operates as active-low. This feature allows the TLC7703QD to manage data retention without external logic gates.
What is the maximum supply current of the TLC7703QD, and under what conditions is it measured?
The maximum supply current of the TLC7703QD is 16 µA, measured under recommended operating conditions: VDD = 5 V, RESIN = VDD, SENSE = VDD ≥ VITmax + 0.2 V, CONTROL = 0 V, and outputs open. This specification holds across the full –40°C to 125°C temperature range and confirms suitability for battery-powered and energy-constrained applications where micropower operation is essential.
Is the TLC7703QD pin-compatible with other members of the TLC77xx family?
Yes, the TLC7703QD is pin-compatible with all SOIC-8 variants in the TLC77xx family-including TLC7701QD, TLC7725QD, TLC7733QD, and TLC7705QD-sharing identical pinout, package dimensions, and interface logic. However, threshold voltages differ (e.g., 2.25 V for TLC7725QD, 2.93 V for TLC7733QD), so substitution requires verification of system voltage monitoring requirements and may necessitate layout review if timing or drive strength differs.
