Product details
Overview
TLC7725IPW from Texas Instruments is a micropower supply voltage supervisor IC with fixed 2.25 V sense threshold, active-low RESET output, programmable delay via external capacitor, 2–6 V supply range, and 16 µA max supply current-used for power-on reset and undervoltage monitoring in microprocessor systems.
For engineers reviewing the TLC7725IPW datasheet, TLC7725IPW pinout, TLC7725IPW application, or TLC7725IPW equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, package mapping to TSSOP-8 (PW), functional context for battery-backed SRAM power-down control, and validated alternative options for industrial and medical embedded designs.
Technical Context
The TLC7725IPW implements a precision voltage sensor with temperature-compensated internal reference and hysteresis (70 mV) to prevent oscillation during threshold crossing. It asserts RESET when VDD ≥1 V at power-up and maintains assertion while SENSE voltage remains below 2.25 V.
Delay time (td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT) is externally set via capacitor on the CT pin; RESET deassertion occurs only after SENSE exceeds threshold and td expires. CONTROL input enables active-high RESET mode and supports static RAM chip-select disable during brownout.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Sense Threshold | 2.25 V ±0.07 V - fixed internal divider sets precise undervoltage detection point for 2.5 V rail monitoring. |
| Supply Range | 2 V to 6 V - supports operation across Li-ion, 3.3 V, and 5 V systems without external regulation. |
| Max Supply Current | 16 µA - enables use in always-on, battery-powered applications with multi-year runtime. |
| RESET Output Type | Active-low, totem-pole - drives standard CMOS inputs directly; no pull-up required. |
| Delay Time Range | 1.1 ms to 4.2 ms (with 100 nF CT) - provides configurable reset hold time compliant with processor startup timing. |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to 85°C - qualified for commercial and industrial ambient environments. |
| Hysteresis | 70 mV - ensures clean, bounce-free reset release during slow-rising or noisy supply conditions. |
Pinout & Package
TLC7725IPW 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/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD | Positive supply input | Power source for internal reference, comparator, and output driver; must be bypassed with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor. |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal circuitry and output load current. |
| SENSE | Voltage monitor input | Connects to monitored rail; internal comparator triggers RESET when voltage falls below 2.25 V. |
| CONTROL | Reset polarity select | Tied to GND for active-high RESET; tied to VDD for active-low RESET (default configuration). |
| RESIN | Manual reset input | Active-low asynchronous reset override; pulls RESET low when asserted, independent of SENSE state. |
| CT | Delay capacitor connection | External capacitor sets reset timeout duration (td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT); open or short disables delay. |
| RESET | Active-low reset output | Drives microcontroller /RESET pin; sinks up to 10 mA; defined output down to VDD ≥1 V. |
| RESET | Active-high reset output | Complementary to RESET; used for logic-level translation or dual-signaling systems. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Power-on reset generator | Asserts RESET at VDD ≥1 V - ensures reliable initialization before core logic becomes operational. |
| Programmable delay timer | External capacitor sets td from sub-millisecond to seconds - eliminates need for discrete RC networks or firmware timers. |
| Temperature-compensated reference | Stable 2.25 V threshold over –40°C to 85°C - avoids calibration drift in varying thermal environments. |
| Battery backup support | CONTROL-driven SRAM disable logic - preserves data integrity during main supply failure without external logic. |
| Micropower operation | 16 µA max IDD - reduces quiescent load on backup batteries in medical or IoT edge devices. |
Applications
| Medical Imaging Power Sequencing | Industrial PLC Controller Reset |
|---|---|

Use Scenario: Provides fail-safe reset during AC line sags or DC bus transients in DIN-rail mounted programmable logic controllers. IC Role / Device Role: Supervises 3.3 V microcontroller supply and triggers controlled shutdown via CONTROL-linked watchdog enable. Use Value: Prevents spurious program execution during brownout, reducing field failures linked to memory corruption. |
| Smart Meter Battery Backup | Automotive Body Control Module |
|
Use Scenario: Maintains SRAM data retention during main power loss in ANSI C12.22-compliant electricity meters.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLV803EB22DBVR | Fixed 2.2 V threshold, 1.8–6 V supply, 0.9 µA typical IQ, SOT-23-5 package | Lacks CONTROL pin and RESET complement; no battery backup support | Select for ultra-low-power, space-constrained designs where dual reset outputs and SRAM control are unnecessary. |
| TPS3808G22DBVR | Adjustable threshold (via resistor divider), 1.8–6.5 V supply, 1.1 µA IQ, 200 ms fixed delay | No programmable delay; requires external resistors; no CONTROL-driven SRAM disable logic | Choose when threshold flexibility outweighs micropower advantage and when fixed 200 ms delay satisfies system timing. |
Compared with TLC7725IPW, TLV803EB22DBVR offers lower quiescent current but omits critical features for battery-backed memory systems, while TPS3808G22DBVR trades programmability and SRAM control for tighter threshold tolerance and simpler layout-neither is pin-compatible.

FAQ
What is the exact sense threshold voltage of the TLC7725IPW?
The TLC7725IPW has a fixed negative-going input threshold voltage (VIT–) of 2.25 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, unlike the TLC7701 variant.
How is the reset delay time configured on the TLC7725IPW?
The reset delay time (td) on the TLC7725IPW 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 td ≈ 2.1 ms. The CT pin must be left open to disable delay functionality, and no series resistor is required.
Does the TLC7725IPW support active-high reset output without external inversion?
Yes-the TLC7725IPW provides both active-low RESET and active-high RESET outputs simultaneously. When CONTROL is tied to VDD, RESET is active-low and RESET is its logical complement. No external inverter or pull-up is needed to generate either signal polarity.
Can the TLC7725IPW be used to protect static RAM during main power loss?
Yes-the TLC7725IPW includes dedicated CONTROL logic for battery-backed SRAM applications. When CONTROL is driven by the microprocessor's memory bank select signal, the device automatically disables the SRAM chip-select (via RESET) during power failure, preserving data integrity without additional glue logic.
What is the maximum supply current specification for the TLC7725IPW?
The TLC7725IPW has a maximum supply current (IDD) of 16 µA under recommended operating conditions (VDD = 5 V, TA = 85°C). During the delay period (td), supply current rises to 120–150 µA, which is still compatible with most battery-backed systems due to its brief duration.
