3 Description
The TPS3840-Q1 family of voltage supervisors or
reset ICs can operate at high voltage levels while
maintaining very low quiescent current across the
whole VDD and temperature range. TPS3840-Q1
offers best combination of low power consumption,
high accuracy and low propagation delay (tp_HL= 30
µs typical).
Reset output signal is asserted when the voltage at
VDD drops below the negative voltage threshold (VIT-)
or when manual reset is pulled to a low logic (VMR_L).
Reset signal is cleared when VDD rise above VIT- plus
hysteresis (VIT+) and manual reset (MR) is floating or
above VMR_H and the reset time delay (tD) expires.
Reset time delay can be programmed by connecting
a capacitor between CT pin and ground. For a fast
reset CT pin can be left floating.
Additional features: Low power-on reset voltage
(VPOR), built-in glitch immunity protection for MR and
VDD, built-in hysteresis, low open-drain output
leakage current (ILKG(OD)). TPS3840-Q1 is a perfect
voltage
monitoring
solution
for
automotive
applications and battery-powered / low power
applications.

Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Rating may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended
Operating Condition. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
If the logic signal driving MR is less than VDD, then additional current flows into VDD and out of MR. VMR should not be higher than VDD.
As a result of the low dissipated power in this device, it is assumed that TJ = TA.

When VDD starts from less than the specified minimum VDD and then exceeds VIT+, reset is release after the startup delay (tSTRT), a
capacitor at CT pin will add tD delay to tSTRT time

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
The TPS3840-Q1 is a family of wide VDD and nano-quiescent current voltage detectors with fixed threshold
voltage. TPS3840-Q1 features include programable reset time delay using external capacitor, active-low manual
reset, 1% typical monitor threshold accuracy with hysteresis and glitch immunity.
Fixed negative threshold voltages (VIT-) can be factory set from 1.6 V to 4.9 V (see Table 3 for available options).
TPS3840-Q1 is available in SOT-23 5 pin industry standard package.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 Input Voltage (VDD)
VDD pin is monitored by the internal comparator to indicate when VDD falls below the fixed threshold voltage.
VDD also functions as the supply for the internal bandgap, internal regulator, state machine, buffers and other
control logic blocks. Good design practice involve placing a 0.1 uF to 1 uF bypass capacitor at VDD input for
noisy applications to ensure enough charge is available for the device to power up correctly.

Feature Description (continued)
8.3.1.1 VDD Hysteresis
The internal comparator has built-in hysteresis to avoid erroneous output reset release. If the voltage at the VDD
pin falls below VIT- the output reset is asserted. When the voltage at the VDD pin goes above VIT- plus hysteresis
(VHYS) the output reset is deasserted after tD delay.

8.3.1.2 VDD Transient Immunity
The TPS3840-Q1 is immune to quick voltage transients or excursion on VDD. Sensitivity to transients depends
on both pulse duration and overdrive. Overdrive is defined by how much VDD deviates from the specified
threshold. Threshold overdrive is calculated as a percent of the threshold in question, as shown in Equation 1.
Overdrive = | (VDD / VIT- – 1) × 100% |

8.3.2 User-Programmable Reset Time Delay
The reset time delay can be set to a minimum value of 50 µs by leaving the CT pin floating, or a maximum value
of approximately 6.2 seconds by connecting 10 µF delay capacitor. The reset time delay (tD) can be programmed
by connecting a capacitor no larger than 10 µF between CT pin and GND.
The relationship between external capacitor (CCT_EXT) in F at CT pin and the time delay (tD) in seconds is given
by Equation 2.
tD = -ln (0.29) x RCT x CCT_EXT + tD (no cap)
Equation 2 is simplified to Equation 3 by plugging RCT and tD(no
(2)
cap)
given in Electrical Characteristics section:
tD = 618937 x CCT_EXT + 50 µs
(3)
Equation 4 solves for external capacitor value (CCT_EXT) in units of F where tD is in units of seconds
CCT_EXT = (tD- 50 µs) ÷ 618937
(4)
The reset delay varies according to three variables: the external capacitor variance (CCT), CT pin internal
resistance (RCT) provided in the Electrical Characteristics table, and a constant. The minimum and maximum
variance due to the constant is shown in Equation 5 and Equation 6.
s tD (minimum) = -ln (0.36) x RCT (min) x CCT (min) + tD (no cap, min)
tD (maximum) = -ln (0.26) x RCT (max) x CCT (max) + tD (no cap, max)

SNVSBA1B – APRIL 2019 – REVISED APRIL 2020

Feature Description (continued)
The recommended maximum delay capacitor for the TPS3840 is limited to 10 µF as this ensures there is enough
time for the capacitor to fully discharge when the reset condition occurs. When a voltage fault occurs, the
previously charged up capacitor discharges, and if the monitored voltage returns from the fault condition before
the delay capacitor discharges completely, the delay capacitor will begin charging from a voltage above zero and
the reset delay will be shorter than expected. Larger delay capacitors can be used so long as the capacitor has
enough time to fully discharge during the duration of the voltage fault.
8.3.3 Manual Reset (MR) Input
The manual reset (MR) input allows a processor GPIO or other logic circuits to initiate a reset. A logic low on MR
with pulse duration longer than tMR_RES will causes reset output to assert. After MR returns to a logic high (VMR_H)
and VDD is above VIT+, reset is deasserted after the user programmed reset time delay (tD) expires.
If MR is not controlled externally, then MR can be left disconnected. If the logic signal controlling MR is less than
VDD, then additional current flows from VDD into MR internally. For minimum current consumption, drive MR to
either VDD or GND. VMR must not be higher than VDD voltage.

8.3.4 Output Logic
8.3.4.1 RESET Output, Active-Low
RESET (Active-Low) applies to TPS3840DL-Q1 (Open-Drain) and TPS3840PL-Q1 (Push-Pull) hence the "L" in
the device name. RESET remains high (deasserted) as long as VDD is above the negative threshold (VIT-) and
the MR pin is floating or above VMR_H. If VDD falls below the negative threshold (VIT-) or if MR is driven low, then
RESET is asserted.
When MR is again logic high or floating and VDD rise above VIT+, the delay circuit will hold RESET low for the
specified reset time delay (tD). When the reset time delay has elapsed, the RESET pin goes back to logic high
voltage (VOH).
The TPS3840DL-Q1 (Open-Drain) version, denoted with "D" in the device name, requires a pull-up resistor to
hold RESET pin high. Connect the pull-up resistor to the desired pull-up voltage source and RESET can be
pulled up to any voltage up to 10 V independent of the VDD voltage. To ensure proper voltage levels, give some
consideration when choosing the pull-up resistor values. The pull-up resistor value determines the actual VOL, the
output capacitive loading, and the output leakage current (ILKG(OD)).
The Push-Pull variants (TPS3840PL and TPS3840PH), denoted with "P" in the device name, does not require a
pull-up resistor.

8.3.4.2 RESET Output, Active-High
RESET (active-high), denoted with no bar above the pin label, applies only to TPS3840PH-Q1 push-pull activehigh version. RESET remains low (deasserted) as long as VDD is above the threshold (VIT-) and the manual
reset signal (MR) is logic high or floating. If VDD falls below the negative threshold (VIT-) or if MR is driven low,
then RESET is asserted driving the RESET pin to high voltage (VOH).
When MR is again logic high and VDD is above VIT+ the delay circuit will hold RESET high for the specified reset
time delay (tD). When the reset time delay has elapsed, the RESET pin goes back to low voltage (VOL ).

When VDD falls below VDD(MIN), undervoltage-lockout (UVLO) takes effect and output reset is held asserted until VDD falls below VPOR.
8.4.1 Normal Operation (VDD > VDD(min))
When VDD is greater than VDD(min), the reset signal is determined by the voltage on the VDD pin with respect to
the trip point (VIT-) and the logic state of MR.
• MR high: the reset signal corresponds to VDD with respect to the threshold voltage.
• MR low: in this mode, the reset is asserted regardless of the threshold voltage.
8.4.2
VDD Between VPOR and VDD(min)
When the voltage on VDD is less than the VDD(min) voltage, and greater than the power-on-reset voltage (VPOR),
the reset signal is asserted.
8.4.3 Below Power-On-Reset (VDD < VPOR)
When the voltage on VDD is lower than VPOR, the device does not have enough bias voltage to internally pull the
asserted output low or high and reset voltage level is undefined.

9 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
The following sections describe in detail how to properly use this device, depending on the requirements of the
final application.
9.2 Typical Application
9.2.1 Design 1: Dual Rail Monitoring with Power-Up Sequencing
A typical application for the TPS3840-Q1 is voltage rail monitoring and power-up sequencing as shown in
Figure 48. The TPS3840-Q1 can be used to monitor any rail above 1.6 V. In this design application, two
TPS3840-Q1 devices monitor two separate voltage rails and sequences the rails upon power-up. The
TPS3840PL30-Q1 is used to monitor the 3.3-V main power rail and the TPS3840DL16-Q1 is used to monitor the
1.8-V rail provided by the LDO for other system peripherals. The RESET output of the TPS3840PL30-Q1 is
connected to the ENABLE input of the LDO. A reset event is initiated on either voltage supervisor when the VDD
voltage is less than VIT- or when MR is driven low by an external source.

9.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The primary constraint for this application is choosing the correct device to monitor the supply voltage of the
microprocessor. The TPS3840-Q1 can monitor any voltage between 1.6 V and 10 V and is available in 0.1 V
increments. Depending on how far away from the nominal voltage rail the user wants the voltage supervisor to
trigger determines the correct voltage supervisor variant to choose. In this example, the first TPS3840-Q1
triggers when the 3.3-V rail falls to 3.0 V. The second TPS3840-Q1 triggers a reset when the 1.8-V rail falls to
1.6 V. The secondary constraint for this application is the reset time delay that must be at least 25 ms to allow
the microprocessor, and all other devices using the 3.3-V rail, enough time to startup correctly before the 1.8-V
rail is enabled via the LDO. Because a minimum time is required, the user must account for capacitor tolerance.
For applications with ambient temperatures ranging from –40°C to +125°C, CCT can be calculated using RCT and
solving for CCT in Equation 2. Solving Equation 2 for 25 ms gives a minimum capacitor value of 0.04 µF which is
rounded up to a standard value 0.047 µF to account for capacitor tolerance.
A 1-µF decoupling capacitor is connected to the VDD pin as a good analog design practice. The pull-up resistor
is only required for the Open-Drain device variants and is calculated to maintain the RESET current within the ±5
mA limit found in the Recommended Operating Conditions: RPull-up = VPull-up ÷ 5 mA. For this design, a standard
10-kΩ pull-up resistor is selected to minimize current draw when RESET is asserted. Keep in mind the lower the
pull-up resistor, the higher VOL. The MR pin can be connected to an external signal if desired or left floating if not
used due to the internal pull-up resistor to VDD.

9.2.2 Design 2: Automotive Off-Battery Monitoring
The initial power stage in automotive applications starts with the 12 V battery. Variation of the battery voltage is
common between 9 V and 16 V. Furthermore, If cold-cranking and load dump conditions are considered, voltage
transients can occur as low as 3 V and as high as 42V. In this design example, we are highlighting the ability for
low power , direct off-battery voltage supervision. Figure 50 illustrates an example of how the TPS3840-Q1 is
monitoring the battery voltage while being powered by it as well. For more information, read this application
report on how to achieve nano-amp IQ voltage supervision in automotive, wide-vin applications.

9.2.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
The primary constraint for this application is monitoring a 12-V rail while preventing the VDD pin on TPS3840-Q1
from exceeding the recommended maximum of 10 V. This is accomplished by sizing the resistor divider so that
when the 12-V rail drops to 7.7 V, the VDD pin for TPS3840-Q1 will be at 1.6 V which is the VIT- threshold for
triggering a undervoltage condition for TPS3840DL16-Q1 as shown in Equation 7. Reasonably sized resistors
were selected for the voltage divider. While selecting lower resistor values may increase current, this allows for
additional accuracy from the resistor divider.
Vrail_trigger = VIT- x (R2 ÷ (R1 + R2))
(7)
where Vrail_trigger is the trigger voltage of the rail being monitored, VIT- is the falling threshold on the VDD pin of
TPS3840, and R1 and R2 are the top and bottom resistors of the external resistor divider. VIT- is fixed per device
variant and is 1.6 V for TPS3840DL16-Q1. Substituting in the values from Figure 50, the undervoltage trigger
threshold for the rail is set to 7.7 V. Given that R1 = 100 kΩ, R2 = 26.2 kΩ.
Because the undervoltage trigger of 10 V on the rail corresponds to 1.6 V undervoltage threshold trigger of the
TPS3840-Q1 device, there is room for the rail to rise up while maintaining less than 10 V on the VDD pin of the
TPS3840-Q1. Equation 8 shows the maximum rail voltage that still meets the 10 V maximum at the VDD pin for
TPS3840-Q1.
Vrail_max = 10 V x (26.2 kΩ ÷ (100 kΩ + 26.2 kΩ)) = 48.168 V
(8)
This means the monitored voltage rail can go as high as 48.168 V and not violate the recommended maximum
for the VDD pin on TPS3840-Q1. This is useful when monitoring a voltage rail that has a wide range that may go
much higher than the nominal rail voltage such as in this case. Notice that the resistor values chosen are less
than 100kΩ to preserve the accuracy set by the internal resistor divider. Good design practice recommends using
a 0.1-µF capacitor on the VDD pin and this capacitance may need to increase when using an external resistor
divider.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
These devices are designed to operate from an input supply with a voltage range between 1.5 V and 10 V. TI
recommends an input supply capacitor between the VDD pin and GND pin. This device has a 12-V absolute
maximum rating on the VDD pin. If the voltage supply providing power to VDD is susceptible to any large voltage
transient that can exceed 12 V, additional precautions must be taken.
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
Make sure that the connection to the VDD pin is low impedance. Good analog design practice recommends
placing a minimum 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor as near as possible to the VDD pin. If a capacitor is not connected
to the CT pin, then minimize parasitic capacitance on this pin so the rest time delay is not adversely affected.
• Make sure that the connection to the VDD pin is low impedance. Good analog design practice is to place a
>0.1-µF ceramic capacitor as near as possible to the VDD pin.
• If a CCT capacitor is used, place these components as close as possible to the CT pin. If the CT pin is left
unconnected, make sure to minimize the amount of parasitic capacitance on the pin to
