Product details
Overview
TPS3779ADBVT from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel, low-power, high-accuracy voltage detector IC with push-pull outputs, operating from 1.5 V to 6.5 V supply and featuring ±1% VIT+ threshold accuracy over –40°C to 125°C. It provides independent SENSE1/SENSE2 inputs with factory-set 1% hysteresis, 2 µA typical quiescent current, and fast 5.5 µs rising-edge propagation delay - used for precise power-rail monitoring in microcontroller reset supervision and power-supply sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the TPS3779ADBVT datasheet, TPS3779ADBVT pinout, TPS3779ADBVT application, or TPS3779ADBVT equivalent, this page delivers verified functional specifications, validated pin roles, confirmed thermal and timing behavior across temperature, and real-world dual-rail monitoring use cases - all grounded in TI's SBVS250 datasheet and official package documentation.
Technical Context
The TPS3779ADBVT integrates two independent comparators with internal precision reference and trimmed thresholds (VIT+ = 1.182 V, VIT– = 1.170 V for 1% hysteresis), enabling simultaneous detection of undervoltage events on separate rails. Its push-pull output architecture eliminates external pull-up resistors and ensures rail-to-rail logic compatibility with VDD.
Each SENSE input accepts 0–6.5 V regardless of VDD level, supports resistor-divider configuration down to 1.2 V detection, and includes built-in hysteresis to reject noise-induced false triggers - critical for stable reset assertion in battery-powered and industrial embedded systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDD Range | 1.5 V to 6.5 V - powers device across wide input rail range without external regulation |
| VIT+ Threshold | 1.182 V ±1% - factory-trimmed rising threshold enables accurate 1.2 V+ rail monitoring |
| Hysteresis | 1% - fixed internal hysteresis rejects up to ~11.8 mV of supply noise without external components |
| Quiescent Current | 2 µA (typ) at TJ = 25°C - enables multi-year operation in always-on battery-backed systems |
| tPD(r) | 5.5 µs max - ensures rapid response to rising rail conditions during power-up sequencing |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for automotive under-hood and industrial control environments |
| Output Type | Push-pull - drives OUT1/OUT2 actively high/low; no pull-up required; compatible with CMOS/TTL loads |
Pinout & Package
TPS3779ADBVT is housed in a 6-pin SOT23-6 (DBV) package measuring 2.92 mm × 1.30 mm, optimized for space-constrained PCB layouts and reflow-compatible assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VDD | Power supply input | Accepts 1.5–6.5 V; requires 0.1 µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed adjacent to pin |
| 2 - OUT1 | Channel 1 output | Push-pull; asserts low when SENSE1 < VIT–; deasserts high when SENSE1 > VIT+ |
| 3 - SENSE2 | Channel 2 voltage sense input | High-impedance (±15 nA); monitors rail via external resistor divider; accepts 0–6.5 V |
| 4 - OUT2 | Channel 2 output | Push-pull; functionally identical to OUT1 but independent; supports asynchronous dual-rail monitoring |
| 5 - SENSE1 | Channel 1 voltage sense input | Same electrical specs as SENSE2; enables differential or independent rail supervision |
| 6 - GND | Ground reference | Common return path for VDD, SENSE inputs, and output drivers; must be low-impedance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent comparators | Enables concurrent monitoring of two distinct power rails (e.g., core and I/O supplies) without shared timing constraints |
| 1% factory-set hysteresis | Eliminates need for external hysteresis components while ensuring noise immunity up to 11.8 mV at 1.182 V threshold |
| 2 µA quiescent current | Reduces standby power in always-on systems - e.g., adds only ~0.015 mW at 3.3 V supply |
| 0–6.5 V SENSE input range | Allows direct monitoring of higher-voltage rails (e.g., 5 V, 3.3 V) using simple resistor dividers referenced to any VDD within spec |
| Push-pull outputs | Saves board space and BOM count by removing external pull-up resistors; supports direct interface to MCU reset pins |
Applications
| Microcontroller Reset Supervision | Power-Supply Sequencing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel voltage detector applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3779BDBVT | 5% hysteresis (vs. 1% in TPS3779ADBVT); same pinout, package, and VDD/SENSE specs | Less immune to rail noise; suitable where tighter threshold tolerance is not required | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs need for ±1% accuracy in noisy environments |
| TPS3780ADBVT | Open-drain outputs (vs. push-pull); identical threshold, hysteresis, and quiescent current | Requires external pull-up resistors; enables level-shifting to higher-voltage logic domains (up to 6.5 V) | Choose when interfacing to mixed-voltage systems or implementing wired-AND reset combining |
Compared with TPS3779BDBVT, the TPS3779ADBVT offers tighter threshold control for noise-sensitive applications; compared with TPS3780ADBVT, it eliminates pull-up components and simplifies layout - making it optimal for compact, single-rail-voltage designs requiring minimal BOM count.

FAQ
What is the exact VIT+ threshold voltage for TPS3779ADBVT?
The TPS3779ADBVT has a factory-set positive-going input threshold (VIT+) of 1.182 V with ±1% accuracy over –40°C to +125°C, corresponding to its 1% hysteresis option. This value is trimmed and specified in TI's SBVS250 datasheet Section 7.5, Electrical Characteristics, and applies directly to both SENSE1 and SENSE2 inputs of the TPS3779ADBVT.
Does TPS3779ADBVT require external pull-up resistors on its outputs?
No, the TPS3779ADBVT features push-pull outputs (OUT1 and OUT2), which actively drive high and low without external pull-up resistors. This reduces BOM count and PCB area versus open-drain alternatives like the TPS3780ADBVT. The high-level output voltage is 0.8×VDD minimum at rated sink/source current, per the TPS3779ADBVT datasheet Section 7.5.
Can TPS3779ADBVT monitor voltages higher than its VDD supply?
Yes, the TPS3779ADBVT SENSE1 and SENSE2 inputs accept 0–6.5 V regardless of VDD level (1.5–6.5 V). This allows monitoring of higher-voltage rails - e.g., a 5 V supply while VDD = 3.3 V - using an external resistor divider. Input bias current is ±15 nA, minimizing divider error, as confirmed in the TPS3779ADBVT Electrical Characteristics table.
What is the startup delay (tSD) specification for TPS3779ADBVT?
The TPS3779ADBVT has a startup delay (tSD) of 570 µs after VDD crosses VDD(min) during power-on or recovery from brownout. During this period, outputs reflect input conditions only after the delay expires - ensuring stable reset assertion before system initialization. This parameter is measured and guaranteed per SBVS250 Section 7.6 and Figure 1.
Is TPS3779ADBVT compatible with the SOT23-6 footprint used by other TI voltage supervisors?
Yes, the TPS3779ADBVT uses the standard 6-pin SOT23-6 (DBV) package with 2.92 mm × 1.30 mm body size and 0.95 mm pitch, matching TI's industry-standard DBV footprint. Pinout is identical to TPS3779x/TPS3780x variants - enabling drop-in replacement within the same family when hysteresis and output type align, as documented in SBVS250 Section 6.
