Product details
Overview
TPS3305-25D from Texas Instruments is a dual-voltage supervisor IC for DSP- and processor-based systems, monitoring 3.3V I/O and 2.5V core supplies with independent 2.93V and 2.25V thresholds, 200ms power-on reset delay, and integrated watchdog timer with 1.6s timeout. It operates from 2.7V to 6V supply and supports industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) in SOIC-8 package.
For engineers reviewing the TPS3305-25D datasheet, TPS3305-25D pinout, TPS3305-25D application, or TPS3305-25D equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-supply threshold accuracy, watchdog timing stability, reset assertion behavior under undervoltage or WDI stall, and compatibility with 3.3V/2.5V rail sequencing in embedded control and communications hardware.
Technical Context
The TPS3305-25D implements two independent voltage sense comparators with temperature-compensated 1.25V reference, hysteresis (20mV at 2.25V threshold), and dedicated SENSE1/SENSE2 inputs. Its reset logic asserts active-low RESET when either input falls below VIT–, and holds it low for 200ms after both return above VIT+.
Watchdog functionality triggers RESET if WDI remains static >1.6s (typ), with MR pin enabling manual reset override. The device uses internal oscillator and transition detection circuitry-no external capacitor required-and guarantees defined RESET output down to VDD ≥1.1V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supervised voltages | 3.3V I/O rail (SENSE1), 2.5V core rail (SENSE2) |
| Voltage thresholds (TYP) | SENSE1 = 2.93V, SENSE2 = 2.25V - enables precise rail monitoring without external resistive dividers |
| Reset delay time | 200ms (factory-programmed) - ensures reliable system initialization after power stabilization |
| Watchdog timeout | 1.6s (typ) - detects firmware lockup or stalled execution in real-time processors |
| Supply current | 40µA (max) - supports battery-backed or low-power always-on supervision |
| Operating voltage range | 2.7V to 6V - accommodates wide-input DC-DC outputs and legacy 5V systems |
| Temperature range | –40°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial and automotive under-hood environments |
Pinout & Package
TPS3305-25D is housed in an 8-pin SOIC (D) package (3.9mm × 4.9mm, 1.75mm max height), RoHS-compliant with NiPdAu lead finish and MSL Level-1 rating. Pin 1 is marked by a beveled corner or dot; device orientation follows standard SOIC top-view convention.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SENSE1 | Voltage monitor input 1 | Connects directly to 3.3V I/O supply; asserts reset if voltage drops below 2.93V (typ) |
| SENSE2 | Voltage monitor input 2 | Connects directly to 2.5V core supply; asserts reset if voltage drops below 2.25V (typ) |
| WDI | Watchdog timer input | Toggled by host processor; failure to toggle within 1.6s triggers reset |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal circuits and reset outputs |
| VDD | Supply input | Power source (2.7–6V); powers internal reference, comparators, and logic |
| MR | Manual reset input | Active-low signal; forces reset regardless of SENSEn or WDI state |
| RESET | Active-low reset output | Open-drain output; requires external pull-up; drives microcontroller /RESET pin |
| RESET | Active-high reset output | Push-pull output; provides direct logic-level reset signal to FPGA or ASIC |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage supervision | Simultaneous monitoring of 3.3V and 2.5V rails with dedicated thresholds eliminates need for external resistor networks |
| No external capacitor required | Factory-programmed 200ms reset delay removes timing capacitor and associated board space, tolerance, and aging concerns |
| Watchdog timer with 1.6s timeout | Hardware-enforced recovery from software hangs without CPU intervention or additional ICs |
| Guaranteed RESET operation down to VDD ≥1.1V | Ensures fail-safe reset assertion even during brownout conditions before full power-up |
| Low quiescent current (40µA) | Enables use in energy-sensitive applications such as portable instrumentation and remote sensors |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-supply supervision applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3305-25DGN | HVSSOP-8 package (3mm × 3mm, 1.1mm height); identical electrical specs and pinout mapping | Better thermal performance and smaller footprint; requires different PCB land pattern and stencil design | Select for space-constrained or thermally demanding layouts where SOIC-8 is impractical |
| MAX6816EPA+ | Single-supply supervisor (3.3V only); no dual-rail capability; includes ESD-hardened inputs and higher reset threshold accuracy (±0.5%) | Lacks 2.5V core monitoring and watchdog timer; suitable only for single-rail systems requiring enhanced noise immunity | Choose only when supervising one rail and ESD robustness (>8kV HBM) is critical; not a functional substitute for TPS3305-25D |
Compared with TPS3305-25DGN, the TPS3305-25D offers identical supervision functionality in a larger, more manufacturable SOIC package ideal for prototyping and medium-volume production; versus MAX6816EPA+, it delivers essential dual-rail and watchdog features required for modern DSP platforms but with lower threshold precision.

FAQ
What is the exact voltage threshold for SENSE2 on the TPS3305-25D?
The TPS3305-25D has a nominal SENSE2 threshold of 2.25V at room temperature, with a specified range of 2.20V to 2.30V over 0°C to +85°C and 2.20V to 2.32V across the full –40°C to +85°C operating range. This threshold is factory-trimmed and does not require external calibration. The TPS3305-25D uses this fixed value to supervise 2.5V core supplies in DSP and microprocessor applications.
Does the TPS3305-25D require an external capacitor for its reset delay function?
No, the TPS3305-25D does not require an external capacitor for its power-on reset delay. The 200ms delay is factory-programmed and implemented using internal timing circuitry. This eliminates component count, board area, and timing variation due to capacitor tolerance or temperature drift. The TPS3305-25D achieves this while maintaining ±30% delay accuracy over temperature and supply voltage.
Can the TPS3305-25D supervise a 5V supply?
No, the TPS3305-25D is specifically configured for 3.3V and 2.5V rails, with fixed SENSE1 and SENSE2 thresholds of 2.93V and 2.25V respectively. For 5V supervision, TI recommends the TPS3305-33 variant, which has SENSE1 = 4.55V and SENSE2 = 2.93V. Using the TPS3305-25D on a 5V rail would result in continuous reset assertion since 5V exceeds both thresholds by >2V.
What is the watchdog timeout period for the TPS3305-25D?
The watchdog timeout for the TPS3305-25D is 1.6 seconds typical, with a specified range of 1.1s to 2.3s over temperature and supply voltage. The timer resets on each rising or falling edge of the WDI signal; if no transition occurs within this window, the device asserts RESET. This behavior is fully integrated - no external components or configuration are needed. The TPS3305-25D relies on this feature to recover from firmware stalls in real-time systems.
Is the TPS3305-25D pin-compatible with other devices in the TPS3305 family?
Yes, all TPS3305-x variants (including TPS3305-18D, TPS3305-25D, and TPS3305-33D) share identical SOIC-8 pinouts and electrical interfaces. The only differences are the factory-programmed voltage thresholds for SENSE1 and SENSE2. This allows drop-in replacement across variants when changing rail configurations - for example, upgrading from 2.5V core to 3.3V core requires only substituting TPS3305-25D with TPS3305-33D without PCB modification. The TPS3305-25D maintains full functional compatibility within the family.
