Product details
Overview
TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 from Texas Instruments is an automotive-grade processor supervisory circuit with active-high reset output, 2.25 V supply voltage supervision threshold, 200 ms power-on reset delay, and integrated watchdog timer. It monitors VDD in DSP/microcontroller systems, asserts RESET during brownout or startup, and supports manual reset via MR pin. Used in automotive ECUs requiring AEC-Q100 compliance and robust power sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 datasheet, TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 pinout, TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 application, or TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its active-high RESET logic, −40°C to 125°C operation, fixed 2.25 V threshold, SOT23-5 package compatibility, and watchdog timeout of 1.6 s (typ).
Technical Context
The TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 implements a precision bandgap-based voltage supervisor with 30 mV hysteresis and internal 200 ms reset delay timer. Its RESET output transitions high only after VDD exceeds 2.25 V and remains stable for ≥200 ms, preventing premature processor release.
It integrates a watchdog timer triggered by WDI transitions, with 1.6 s typical timeout; leaving WDI unconnected disables watchdog functionality. The device uses an internal voltage divider for threshold setting and requires no external components for basic supervision.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage Threshold | 2.25 V (VIT−), with ±0.04 V tolerance over −40°C to 125°C - ensures reliable reset assertion at precise 2.5 V rail undervoltage |
| Reset Delay Time | 200 ms (typ), fixed internal timer - guarantees sufficient processor initialization time after power stabilization |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6 s (typ), triggered by WDI edge - detects firmware lockup in safety-critical automotive control loops |
| RESET Polarity | Active-high output - directly interfaces with processors requiring high-level reset assertion (e.g., certain MSP430 variants) |
| Supply Current | 15 μA (typ) at VDD = 3.3 V - enables low-power operation in battery-backed or always-on automotive modules |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to 125°C - qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1 for under-hood and transmission control applications |
| ESD Rating | 2000 V HBM - meets automotive ESD robustness requirements for harsh vehicle environments |
Pinout & Package
SOT23-5 package (DBV drawing), 5-pin surface-mount, 1.6 mm × 2.9 mm footprint, 1.1 mm height, RoHS-compliant green finish, moisture sensitivity level 1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - RESET | Active-high reset output | Drives high when VDD ≥ 2.25 V and delay complete; sinks 1 mA max for low-state pull-down |
| 2 - GND | Ground reference | Return path for all internal circuits; must be connected to system ground plane with low-inductance trace |
| 3 - RESET | Duplicate RESET output | Second bond-out of same active-high RESET signal - allows fanout to multiple ICs without external buffer |
| 4 - VDD | Power supply input | Accepts 1.1 V to 5.5 V; internal regulator powers supervisor core; bypass capacitor required at pin |
| 5 - WDI | Watchdog input | Edge-sensitive (rising/falling); toggling within 1.6 s prevents RESET assertion; open = watchdog disabled |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 qualified | Stress-tested for automotive use across −40°C to 125°C ambient - eliminates qualification effort for Tier 1 suppliers |
| Fixed 200 ms reset delay | No external RC timing components needed - reduces BOM count and layout area in space-constrained ECUs |
| Dual RESET outputs | Pins 1 and 3 both deliver identical active-high RESET - simplifies routing to microcontroller and companion ASIC |
| Watchdog with 1.6 s timeout | Configurable via WDI pin toggling - provides fail-safe recovery for real-time control firmware without software overhead |
| 2.25 V threshold accuracy | ±2% over temperature - ensures deterministic reset behavior across battery voltage sag (e.g., cold-crank 6 V → 2.4 V) |
Applications

FAQ
What is the reset output polarity of the TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1?
The TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 features an active-high RESET output. Pin 1 and Pin 3 both deliver the same active-high signal, which transitions high only after VDD rises above 2.25 V and remains stable for the full 200 ms delay period. This eliminates the need for external inverters when interfacing with processors that require high-level reset assertion, such as select MSP430 and C2000 devices.
Does the TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 require external components to operate?
No, the TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 operates autonomously with no external timing components. A 0.1 μF ceramic bypass capacitor is recommended at the VDD pin for noise immunity, but the 2.25 V threshold, 200 ms reset delay, and 1.6 s watchdog timeout are all internally generated. The MR pin may be left open (internally pulled up) if manual reset is unused, and WDI can be left floating to disable the watchdog.
What is the watchdog timeout specification for the TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1?
The watchdog timeout for the TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 is 1.6 s (typical), with a range of 0.9 s to 2.5 s over temperature and voltage. It is triggered by any rising or falling edge on the WDI pin; failure to toggle WDI within this interval causes the active-high RESET output to assert. Leaving WDI unconnected disables the watchdog function entirely, preserving default power-on reset behavior.
Is the TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 pin-compatible with other TPS382x-Q1 devices?
Yes, the TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 shares identical SOT23-5 (DBV) pinout and package dimensions with all TPS382x-Q1 family members, including TPS3820/23/25/28 variants. Pins 1–5 map consistently to RESET, GND, RESET, VDD, and WDI across the family. However, RESET polarity (active-high vs. active-low) and threshold voltage differ between part numbers - electrical compatibility must be verified per application.
What automotive qualification does the TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 meet?
The TPS3824-25QDBVRQ1 is qualified per AEC-Q100 Grade 1, rated for operation from −40°C to +125°C ambient temperature. It undergoes stress testing for HTOL, TC, UHAST, and ESD (2000 V HBM), and is manufactured in TI's IATF 16949-certified facilities. This qualification supports deployment in powertrain, chassis, and ADAS applications where functional safety and long-term reliability are mandatory.
