Product details
Overview
TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an AEC-Q100 Grade 1 automotive voltage supervisor IC with open-drain active-low reset output, 3.0 V fixed threshold (VIT−), 120 nA typical supply current, ±0.5% threshold accuracy, and programmable reset time delay via CT pin. It monitors power rails in ADAS controllers and radar ECUs where ultra-low quiescent current and precise brownout detection are critical.
For engineers reviewing the TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 datasheet, TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 pinout, TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 application, or TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, validated pin functions, confirmed automotive-grade operating conditions (–40°C to +125°C), and real-world timing behavior including 30 µs typical propagation delay and 40 µs minimum reset delay without external capacitor.
Technical Context
The TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 implements a precision bandgap-based comparator with built-in 5% hysteresis (VHYS) and glitch immunity against transients ≥10 µs at 5% VIT− overdrive. Its internal timer circuit uses a 500 kΩ CT pin resistance to convert external capacitance into reset delay, supporting 40 µs (CT floating) up to 6.2 ms (10 nF).
It operates across 0.7 V to 6 V supply range while maintaining nano-power consumption and integrates manual reset (MR) with 1 µs propagation delay and 500 ns minimum pulse width. The open-drain RESET output requires an external pull-up and sinks up to 2 mA at 3.3 V with VOL ≤ 300 mV.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VIT− Threshold | 3.0 V fixed; enables reliable brownout detection for 3.3 V system rails with ±0.5% accuracy over temperature. |
| Supply Current (IDD) | 120 nA typical at 25°C; allows continuous monitoring in always-on automotive domains without battery drain. |
| Propagation Delay (tP_HL) | 30 µs typical; ensures fast response to supply dips while avoiding false triggers from short transients. |
| Reset Time Delay (tD) | 40 µs min (CT floating); programmable up to 619 ms (1 µF); supports flexible power sequencing and firmware initialization windows. |
| Hysteresis (VHYS) | 5% typical; prevents oscillatory reset assertion during slow-rising/falling VDD transitions near threshold. |
| Operating Temp Range | –40°C to +125°C ambient; qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood and safety-critical automotive locations. |
| Output Type | Open-drain active-low RESET; compatible with mixed-voltage systems via external pull-up to any rail ≤6.5 V. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-23-5 (DBV) package: 2.90 mm × 1.60 mm body, 0.95 mm max height, gull-wing leads, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RESET | Open-drain active-low output | Drives low when VDD < VIT− or MR asserted; requires external pull-up; sinks 2 mA max at 3.3 V with VOL ≤ 300 mV. |
| 2 - VDD | Supply input and monitored rail | Input voltage range 0.7 V–6 V; powers internal circuitry; threshold detection occurs on this pin. |
| 3 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for VDD, MR, CT, and RESET; must be low-impedance for stable hysteresis and timing. |
| 4 - MR | Active-low manual reset input | Pull low ≥500 ns to force reset; internally pulled up to VDD (100 kΩ); logic low threshold = 0.3×VDD. |
| 5 - CT | Capacitor time-delay programming | Connect external capacitor to GND to set tD; floating = 40 µs min delay; 10 nF = 6.2 ms typical; RCT = 500 kΩ. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Nano-power operation | 120 nA typical IDD enables 10+ year battery life in always-on telematics modules. |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (–40°C to +125°C), HBM ±2 kV, CDM ±750 V - certified for safety-critical ECU use. |
| Programmable reset timing | CT pin supports 40 µs–6.2 s delay range using 0–10 µF capacitor - eliminates need for external timers or MCUs. |
| High-accuracy threshold | ±0.5% VIT− tolerance ensures consistent brownout detection across temperature and voltage corners. |
| Glitch-immune sensing | 10 µs minimum pulse rejection at 5% VIT− overdrive prevents false resets from EMI or load-switching noise. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3840DL30DBVRQ1 | Higher 350 nA IDD; same SOT-23-5, 3.0 V threshold, open-drain active-low; no CT pin - fixed 200 ms delay. | Lacks programmable delay; suited for simpler systems where fixed timeout suffices. | Choose if design requires AEC-Q100 Grade 1 supervision but does not need adjustable reset timing. |
| TLV809M30DBVR | Non-automotive; 1.8 µA IDD; 3.0 V fixed threshold; open-drain active-low; no MR or CT pins; –40°C to +125°C. | Not AEC-Q100 qualified; lacks manual reset and programmable delay - limited to cost-sensitive industrial use. | Choose only for non-safety-critical applications where automotive qualification and flexibility are unnecessary. |
Compared with TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1, TPS3840DL30DBVRQ1 trades nano-power and programmability for higher integration of fixed delay, while TLV809M30DBVR sacrifices automotive compliance and feature set for lower unit cost in non-automotive designs.

FAQ
What is the exact VIT− threshold voltage for TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1?
The TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 has a factory-set fixed negative threshold voltage (VIT−) of 3.0 V, with ±0.5% typical accuracy across –40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. This value is laser-trimmed during production and confirmed in TI's SNVSBY3A datasheet Section 7.5 Electrical Characteristics.
Does TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 require an external pull-up resistor on the RESET pin?
Yes, TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 uses an open-drain active-low RESET output and requires an external pull-up resistor to define the high state voltage. The resistor connects between RESET and the desired pull-up rail (≤6.5 V), with value selected based on sink current requirements and VOL specification (≤300 mV at 2 mA).
How is the reset time delay programmed on TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1?
The reset time delay (tD) on TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 is programmed by connecting a capacitor between the CT pin (Pin 5) and GND. With CT floating, tD = 40 µs minimum. Using a 10 nF capacitor yields ~6.2 ms typical delay. The internal CT pin resistance is 500 kΩ, and tD scales linearly with capacitance per TI's Equation 3.
Is TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 qualified for automotive safety-critical applications?
Yes, TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 is AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualified (–40°C to +125°C ambient), with HBM ±2 kV and CDM ±750 V ESD ratings. It is designed for use in automotive safety-related systems including radar ECUs and ADAS controllers, though functional safety certification (e.g., ISO 26262) must be validated at the system level.
What is the minimum pulse width required on the MR pin to assert reset in TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1?
The TLV840MADL30DBVRQ1 requires a minimum MR pin pulse width of 500 ns to reliably assert the RESET output. This is specified as tMR_PW in Section 7.6 of the datasheet. Pulses shorter than this may fail to trigger reset, especially under worst-case voltage and temperature conditions.
