Product details
Overview
TPS3306-33QDRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an automotive-grade dual supervisory circuit designed for monitoring 5 V and 3.3 V supply rails in DSP and processor-based systems. It provides power-on reset with 100-ms delay, watchdog timer with 0.8-s timeout, open-drain RESET and PFO outputs, and operates across −40°C to 125°C.
For engineers reviewing the TPS3306-33QDRQ1 datasheet, TPS3306-33QDRQ1 pinout, TPS3306-33QDRQ1 application, or TPS3306-33QDRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-voltage threshold accuracy (4.55 V / 2.93 V), ultra-low 15 µA supply current, AEC-Q100 qualification, and integrated power-fail comparator functionality.
Technical Context
The TPS3306-33QDRQ1 integrates two independent voltage supervisors with fixed thresholds of 4.55 V (SENSE1) and 2.93 V (SENSE2), each with 30 mV hysteresis. Its internal 100-ms reset delay timer activates only after both sensed voltages exceed their respective thresholds.
A dedicated watchdog circuit monitors WDI transitions with 0.8-s timeout and reinitializes on reset assertion; the PFI comparator references a precise 1.25 V internal reference and supports external resistor-based voltage supervision down to 1.25 V threshold.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 6 V - supports wide-input operation including 3.3 V, 5 V, and battery-backed systems. |
| SENSE1 Threshold (VIT1) | 4.55 V (typ) - monitors 5 V rail with ±3% tolerance over temperature, enabling reliable brownout detection. |
| SENSE2 Threshold (VIT2) | 2.93 V (typ) - supervises 3.3 V domain with 30 mV hysteresis to prevent chatter during marginal conditions. |
| Reset Delay Time (td) | 100 ms (typ) - ensures stable system initialization after both supplies reach valid levels. |
| Watchdog Timeout (tt(out)) | 0.8 s (typ) - provides robust software execution monitoring without requiring high-frequency servicing. |
| Supply Current (IDD) | 15 µA (typ) - enables long battery life in portable and automotive always-on subsystems. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to 125°C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood and infotainment applications. |
Pinout & Package
TPS3306-33QDRQ1 is housed in an industry-standard SOIC-8 (D package), 3.91 mm × 4.90 mm body, 1.75 mm max height, RoHS-compliant with NIPDAU lead finish and MSL Level-1 rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1: SENSE1 | Voltage sense input 1 | Monitors 5 V rail; asserts RESET if voltage drops below 4.55 V (typ) with 30 mV hysteresis. |
| 2: SENSE2 | Voltage sense input 2 | Monitors 3.3 V rail; triggers combined reset condition when below 2.93 V (typ). |
| 3: PFI | Power-fail comparator input | Accepts external voltage divider output; compares against 1.25 V reference for auxiliary supply monitoring. |
| 4: GND | Ground reference | Common return path for all internal circuits and output drivers; requires low-impedance PCB connection. |
| 5: RESET | Active-low open-drain reset output | Drives low during power-up, brownout, or watchdog timeout; requires external pull-up for logic-level compatibility. |
| 6: PFO | Active-low open-drain power-fail output | Signals auxiliary supply failure independently of main reset; supports low-battery warning or backup switchover. |
| 7: WDI | Watchdog timer input | Edge-triggered (rising/falling); resets internal 0.8-s timer; floating disables watchdog function. |
| 8: VDD | Supply voltage input | Power source for internal circuitry; RESET becomes defined at ≥1.1 V, enabling early fault detection. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent voltage supervision | Simultaneously monitors 5 V and 3.3 V rails with dedicated thresholds and hysteresis-eliminates need for discrete comparators or multiple ICs. |
| Integrated watchdog timer | 0.8-s timeout with edge-sensitive WDI input-ensures deterministic recovery from firmware hangs without external timing components. |
| Power-fail comparator with PFO | 1.25 V internal reference enables flexible supervision of any voltage ≥1.25 V via external resistive divider-supports battery voltage monitoring or auxiliary supply tracking. |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q100 Grade 1 (−40°C to 125°C) and PPAP-capable-meets functional safety requirements for ASIL-B–compatible system monitoring. |
| Ultra-low quiescent current | 15 µA typical supply current-reduces standby power in always-on automotive modules such as telematics and gateway ECUs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3307-33QDGNRQ1 | Same dual-supervision architecture but uses adjustable SENSE2 threshold via external resistor; fixed SENSE1 = 4.55 V. | Requires external resistor network for 3.3 V monitoring; less suitable for space-constrained designs needing fixed-threshold simplicity. | Select when fine-tuning SENSE2 threshold beyond 2.93 V is required, e.g., for 3.3 V ±5% tolerance compliance. |
| TLV809E33DBVRQ1 | Single-channel 3.3 V supervisor only; no SENSE1, PFI, or watchdog; 1.6 µA IDD; SOT-23-3 package. | Lacks dual-rail capability, power-fail monitoring, and watchdog-requires additional ICs to match TPS3306-33QDRQ1 functionality. | Choose only for minimal-cost, single-rail monitoring where watchdog and auxiliary supervision are unnecessary. |
Compared with TPS3306-33QDRQ1, TPS3307-33QDGNRQ1 offers design flexibility at the cost of component count and layout area, while TLV809E33DBVRQ1 reduces quiescent current but sacrifices integration-making TPS3306-33QDRQ1 optimal for space- and feature-constrained automotive systems requiring full supervision coverage.

FAQ
What is the exact voltage threshold monitored by SENSE1 on the TPS3306-33QDRQ1?
The TPS3306-33QDRQ1 monitors SENSE1 at a nominal threshold of 4.55 V (typical), with guaranteed range of 4.44 V to 4.68 V across −40°C to 125°C. This threshold is factory-trimmed and fixed for the -33 variant, designed specifically to supervise a 5 V supply rail with 30 mV hysteresis to prevent oscillation during marginal conditions.
Does the TPS3306-33QDRQ1 require external components to operate as a basic dual-supervisor?
No, the TPS3306-33QDRQ1 operates as a complete dual-supervisory circuit with no mandatory external components. Only pull-up resistors on RESET and PFO (open-drain outputs) and optional RC filtering on SENSE inputs are recommended for noise immunity. The watchdog timer is disabled by default unless WDI is actively toggled, and PFI can be left unconnected if unused.
How does the watchdog timer in the TPS3306-33QDRQ1 interact with the reset function?
When the watchdog timer times out (after 0.8 s of no WDI transition), it forces the RESET output active-low for the full 100-ms delay period-identical to power-on or brownout reset behavior. This ensures hardware-level recovery regardless of software state. The watchdog is fully independent of voltage monitoring: RESET asserts even if both SENSE1 and SENSE2 remain above threshold.
Can the TPS3306-33QDRQ1 supervise voltages other than 5 V and 3.3 V?
Yes-the PFI input accepts externally divided voltages referenced to the internal 1.25 V comparator threshold, enabling supervision of any voltage ≥1.25 V (e.g., 12 V battery via 10:1 divider). However, SENSE1 and SENSE2 thresholds are fixed at 4.55 V and 2.93 V respectively; alternate variants like TPS3306-18QDRQ1 are required for different nominal rail supervision.
Is the TPS3306-33QDRQ1 pin-compatible with other members of the TPS3306-Q1 family?
Yes, all TPS3306-Q1 variants-including TPS3306-15QDRQ1, TPS3306-18QDRQ1, and TPS3306-25QDRQ1-share identical SOIC-8 (D) package, pinout, and terminal functions. Only the internal voltage thresholds differ; this allows drop-in replacement across variants when adjusting supervised rail combinations, provided PCB layout accommodates the same 8-pin SOIC footprint.
