Product details
Overview
TLC7703QDG4 from Texas Instruments is a micropower supply voltage supervisor IC designed for reset control in microcomputer and microprocessor systems. It features a fixed 2.63 V negative-going input threshold voltage (VIT–), programmable delay time via external capacitor (td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT), and operates across –40°C to 125°C. Its defined RESET output from VDD ≥1 V and 16 µA max supply current support reliable power-on and undervoltage supervision in industrial control units.
For engineers reviewing the TLC7703QDG4 datasheet, TLC7703QDG4 pinout, TLC7703QDG4 application, or TLC7703QDG4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its SOIC-8 package, 2.63 V precision voltage sensing, active-low RESET with totem-pole output, temperature-compensated reference, and compatibility with static RAM power-down control in battery-backed systems.
Technical Context
The TLC7703QDG4 implements a precision voltage monitor with hysteresis (70 mV) and an internal timer that delays RESET deassertion after SENSE voltage recovers above threshold. Its CONTROL pin enables active-high RESET configuration when tied to GND, supporting memory chip-select disable during power failure.
It integrates a temperature-compensated bandgap reference and power-on reset generator that asserts RESET at VDD ≥1 V. The device supports supply voltages from 2 V to 6 V and maintains defined logic levels (VOH ≥3.7 V at VDD = 4.5 V, VOL ≤0.5 V at IOL = 2 mA) across its full operating temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Threshold Voltage | 2.63 V (fixed negative-going SENSE threshold; ensures stable reset activation at precise supply rail level) |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2 V to 6 V (supports wide-input industrial and automotive subsystems without external regulation) |
| Max Supply Current | 16 µA (enables ultra-low-power operation in battery-critical applications like medical data loggers) |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to 125°C (Q-grade qualification for under-hood and industrial motor drive environments) |
| Delay Time Formula | td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT (allows user-defined reset hold time from ~1.1 ms to seconds using standard ceramic capacitors) |
| Hysteresis | 70 mV (prevents oscillatory reset assertion near threshold during noisy or slowly recovering supplies) |
| Reset Output Type | Active-low, totem-pole (drives CMOS inputs directly; no pull-up required; supports 2 mA sink capability) |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOIC-8 (D package), 3.91 mm × 4.9 mm body, 1.27 mm pitch, plastic, RoHS-compliant, MSL Level-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Return path for all internal circuitry and output drivers; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| VDD | Power supply input | Primary supply rail (2–6 V); powers internal reference, comparator, and output stage |
| SENSE | Voltage monitoring input | Connects to monitored rail (e.g., microcontroller VCC); triggers reset when voltage falls below 2.63 V |
| CONTROL | Reset polarity control | When tied to GND, configures RESET as active-high; when open or high, RESET is active-low |
| RESIN | Manual reset input | Active-low asynchronous reset override; forces RESET assertion regardless of SENSE state |
| RESET | Reset output | Active-low totem-pole output; drives microcontroller /RESET pin directly; sinks up to 2 mA |
| NC | No connect | Pin 1 is unconnected; must remain floating or grounded per layout guidelines to avoid noise coupling |
| NC | No connect | Pin 2 is unconnected; no internal connection; leave unpopulated or grounded per PCB design rules |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Power-on reset generation | Asserts RESET at VDD ≥1 V - ensures microcontroller remains held in reset until minimum functional supply is established |
| Programmable delay time | External capacitor sets td from milliseconds to seconds - eliminates need for discrete RC timing networks or firmware delays |
| Temperature-compensated reference | Stable 2.63 V threshold over –40°C to 125°C - avoids false resets due to thermal drift in harsh environments |
| Power-down control support | Enables automatic disabling of static RAM during brownout - preserves data integrity in battery-backed memory systems |
| Micropower operation | 16 µA max IDD - extends battery life in portable instrumentation and remote sensors without sacrificing supervision accuracy |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Fixed 3.3 V threshold; 350 nA quiescent current; open-drain RESET; requires external pull-up | Lower power but lacks totem-pole output and power-down control logic | Preferred where ultra-low IQ dominates and reset polarity/active drive is not critical |

FAQ
What is the exact threshold voltage of the TLC7703QDG4 and how is it specified?
The TLC7703QDG4 has a fixed negative-going input threshold voltage (VIT–) of 2.63 V, with a typical tolerance of ±0.07 V (2.56 V to 2.70 V) over its full operating temperature range of –40°C to 125°C. This value is factory-trimmed and temperature-compensated using an internal bandgap reference, ensuring consistent reset behavior across voltage and thermal conditions without external resistor networks.
Does the TLC7703QDG4 support active-high RESET output?
Yes, the TLC7703QDG4 supports active-high RESET output via its CONTROL pin: when CONTROL is tied to GND, the RESET output becomes active-high. When CONTROL is left open or pulled high, RESET operates as active-low. This dual-mode flexibility allows direct interface with microcontrollers requiring either polarity without external inverters.
How is the reset delay time set on the TLC7703QDG4?
The reset delay time (td) on the TLC7703QDG4 is set externally using a capacitor (CT) connected between the CT pin and GND. The relationship is td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT, where CT is in farads and td is in seconds. For example, a 100 nF capacitor yields ~2.1 ms delay. No resistor is required - only a stable ceramic capacitor is needed.
What is the maximum supply current of the TLC7703QDG4 and under what conditions is it measured?
The maximum supply current (IDD) of the TLC7703QDG4 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 ultra-low quiescent current enables use in always-on, battery-powered systems such as portable diagnostics and remote sensors.
Can the TLC7703QDG4 be used to protect static RAM during power loss?
Yes, the TLC7703QDG4 includes dedicated power-down control logic for static RAM with battery backup. By connecting the RESET output to the RAM's chip select (CS) and the CONTROL pin to the microprocessor's memory bank select signal (e.g., CSH1), the device automatically disables RAM access during power failure - preserving data integrity without firmware intervention.
