Product details
Overview
TLC7725IPWR 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, 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 requiring reliable low-power reset assurance.
For engineers reviewing the TLC7725IPWR datasheet, TLC7725IPWR pinout, TLC7725IPWR application, or TLC7725IPWR equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package-validated pin functions, real-world use cases in safety-critical embedded systems, and two confirmed alternative supervisors with documented functional and timing differences.
Technical Context
The TLC7725IPWR implements a precision bandgap-based voltage reference with temperature compensation to maintain stable 2.25 V (±3%) threshold detection over –40°C to 85°C. Its internal timer generates a user-programmable reset delay (td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT) after SENSE voltage recovers above threshold.
It features dual-output logic: active-low RESET and active-high RESET, both asserted when VDD ≥1 V and SENSE < VIT–. The CONTROL input enables RAM power-down mode by configuring RESET polarity and enabling chip-select gating during brownout events.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Sense Threshold Voltage | 2.25 V ±3% - ensures accurate 2.25 V supply monitoring with hysteresis of 70 mV to prevent chatter near threshold |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2 V to 6 V - supports single-cell Li-ion, 3.3 V, and 5 V rail supervision without external regulation |
| Supply Current (IDD) | 9–16 µA - enables multi-year battery life in always-on medical or industrial monitoring systems |
| Reset Delay Time (td) | 1.1–4.2 ms with 100 nF capacitor - configurable delay ensures full system initialization before release |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for commercial/industrial environments including portable diagnostic equipment |
| Output Drive Strength | 2 mA sink/source - sufficient to directly drive microcontroller reset inputs and CMOS memory CS lines |
| Power-Up Reset Voltage (Vres) | 1 V - guarantees RESET assertion even during slow-ramp or weak-supply power-up sequences |
Pinout & Package
The TLC7725IPWR is housed in an 8-pin TSSOP (PW) package measuring 3.0 mm × 4.4 mm × 1.2 mm, RoHS-compliant with NiPdAu lead finish and MSL Level-1 rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Return path for all internal circuitry and output drivers; must be low-impedance connection |
| VDD | Positive supply input | Power source for internal reference, comparator, and output stage; bypass with 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor |
| SENSE | Voltage monitor input | Connects to regulated rail under supervision; triggers reset when voltage drops below 2.25 V |
| CONTROL | Polarity and RAM control input | When grounded, configures RESET as active-high for static RAM chip-select disable during power loss |
| RESIN | Manual reset input | Active-low asynchronous reset override; pulls RESET low when driven below 0.2×VDD |
| RESET | Active-low reset output | Open-drain compatible output; requires external pull-up; asserts low during fault or power-up |
| RESET | Active-high reset output | Complementary to RESET; asserts high during fault or power-up; no external pull-up needed |
| NC | No connect | Unbonded pin; must remain floating or grounded per layout guidelines to avoid noise coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Programmable reset delay | Delay time set precisely by external capacitor (td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT), eliminating need for fixed-timing ICs or RC networks |
| Defined RESET at VDD ≥1 V | Guarantees early reset assertion during power ramp-up, preventing metastability in microcontrollers powered from weak sources |
| Power-down control for SRAM | Enables automatic battery-backed memory retention by driving CS line via CONTROL-configured RESET during brownout |
| Temperature-compensated reference | Maintains ±3% threshold accuracy over –40°C to +85°C, critical for consistent reset behavior in varying ambient conditions |
| Low quiescent current | 16 µA max IDD allows integration into energy-sensitive applications like portable ultrasound or infusion pumps |
Applications
| Medical Imaging Power Sequencing | Industrial PLC I/O Module Supervision |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G25DBVR | Fixed 2.5 V threshold, 350 nA IQ, 200 ms min delay (non-programmable), open-drain only | Lacks dual RESET/RESET outputs and CONTROL-driven SRAM power-down logic | Choose for ultra-low-power, long-delay applications where SRAM control is unnecessary |
| MAX6326UT23D3+T | 2.32 V threshold, 1.6 µA IQ, 140 ms fixed delay, push-pull RESET only | No CONTROL input; no provision for battery-backed memory disable; smaller temp range (–40°C to +85°C) | Prefer when board space is constrained and only basic reset assertion is required |
Compared with TLC7725IPWR, TPS3808G25DBVR offers 45× lower quiescent current but forfeits programmable delay and SRAM control; MAX6326UT23D3+T provides tighter threshold tolerance (±1.5%) yet lacks dual outputs and manual reset input, limiting system-level fault response flexibility.

FAQ
What is the exact sense threshold voltage of the TLC7725IPWR?
The TLC7725IPWR has a fixed negative-going input threshold voltage (VIT–) of 2.25 V, specified from 2.18 V (min) to 2.32 V (max) across 2 V to 6 V supply and –40°C to +85°C operating temperature. This value is factory-trimmed and does not require external resistor programming like the TLC7701.
How is the reset delay time set on the TLC7725IPWR?
The reset delay time (td) of the TLC7725IPWR is set externally using a capacitor connected between the CT pin and GND. The relationship is td = 2.1 × 10⁴ × CT, yielding 2.1 ms with a 100 nF capacitor. No resistor is required - delay is solely capacitor-dependent and validated across full temperature range.
Does the TLC7725IPWR support battery-backed SRAM power-down control?
Yes - the TLC7725IPWR supports battery-backed SRAM power-down control via its CONTROL input. When CONTROL is tied to GND, RESET becomes active-high and can directly drive the chip-select (CS) line of static RAM, automatically disabling memory access during power failure while preserving data via backup battery.
What is the minimum supply voltage at which TLC7725IPWR asserts RESET?
The TLC7725IPWR asserts RESET when VDD reaches 1 V, as defined by its power-up reset voltage (Vres). This ensures reliable reset generation even during slow-ramp or weak-supply conditions - a key differentiator from supervisors requiring ≥2 V to activate.
Is the TLC7725IPWR pin-compatible with other members of the TLC77xx family?
Yes - all TLC77xx devices in the TSSOP-8 (PW) package, including TLC7725IPWR, TLC7703IPWR, and TLC7733IPWR, share identical pinout, footprint, and thermal characteristics. Only the sense threshold voltage differs between variants; no PCB redesign is needed when substituting within the same package option.
