2 Introduction
The TPS3840EVM is an evaluation module (EVM) for the TPS3840 voltage supervisor. The TPS3840EVM can
be used with any TPS3840 device variant but please note that if using the push-pull variants (TPS3840PLXX
or TPS3840PHXX), the shunt on J2 must be removed as push-pull devices do not use a pull-up resistor so R1
must be disconnected. Please also note if using TPS3840EVM with the active-high variant (TPS3840PHXX),
the active-low RESET label on the EVM board and throughout this User Guide becomes active-high RESET.
The TPS3840 has a supply voltage range of 1.5 V to 10 V, and offers input connections for all device input
and output pins. Test points are provided to give the user access to an extra ground connection if needed for
oscilloscope or multimeter measurements.

EVM Setup and Operation
5 EVM Setup and Operation
This section describes the functionality and operation of the TPS3840EVM. The user should read the TPS3840
datasheet for electrical characteristics of the device.
5.1 Input Power (VDD)
The VDD supply is connected through the J1 header on board. Both pins of jumper J1 are connected together so
power can be applied to either pin. Supply voltage is dependent on what the user wants to monitor, but the range
is 1.6 V to 10 V. Table 5-1 details the nominal supply and typical threshold voltage.

Typical Threshold Voltage (V)

5.1.1 Manual Reset ( MR)
The TPS3840 devices offers a manual reset pin that is utilized via jumper J6. If a shunt jumper is placed on
jumper J6, the RESET pin is asserted and forced into a low state. After the shunt jumper is removed and
VDD is above its reset threshold, MR returns to a logic high due to the internal pull-up resistor, and RESET is
deasserted to logic high after the user-defined delay expires. If jumper J6 is left floating, the device operates
normally as the MR pin defaults to logic high. Pin 1 of jumper J6 can also be connected to a control signal to
set the logic level on MR pin. If pin 1 on jumper J6 is logic low, the device asserts a reset. There is also a test
point TP4 connected directly to the MR pin in case the user wants to monitor the MR pin. See Figure 5-1 through
Figure 5-5.

5.2 Monitoring Voltage on VDD
The TPS3840 device monitors voltage via the VDD pin. The EVM provides jumper J1 and test point TP2 for
connecting the power supply input to the VDD pin. If the voltage on this pin drops below VIT, RESET is asserted
low. The VDD pin is connected internally to a comparator through an internal resistor divider at the positive input
and the negative input is connected to an internal reference. The internal resistor divider is set to provide the
input voltage threshold to cause a reset, VIT-, that corresponds to the chosen device variant. Please see the
Device Comparison Table in the TPS3840 Datasheet for more information on the different device variants.
Upon startup, the TPS3840 requires VDD to be above VDD (MIN) = 1.6 V for a maximum of 500 µs before the
RESET output is in the correct logic state. Figure 5-3 shows the actual startup delay may be much shorter than
the maximum of 500 µs especially in the case when VDD is above VDD (MIN) = 1.6 V but below VIT- + VHYS
because this case does not require the additional RESET time delay (tD) for RESET to transition to logic high like
in the case when VDD is above VIT- + VHYS. The startup delay when VDD is above VIT- + VHYS must account for
the RESET time delay (tD). The TPS3840 has built-in glitch immunity so voltage transients on VDD are ignored
if the pulse duration is 10 µs or less as shown in Figure 5-4. The glitch immunity specification depends on the
amplitude of the voltage transient and the operating conditions. Please see the Glitch Immunity specification in
the Timing Requirements section of the TPS3840 Datasheet for more detailed information.

5.3 Reset Output ( RESET )
The TPS3840EVM comes populated with TPS3840DL29 device variant which has open-drain, active-low output
topology for the RESET pin. The other device variants provide different output topolgies and can be used on
this EVM. Note: if using a TPS3840 device variant with push-pull output topology, the pull-up resistor must be
disconnected by leaving jumper J2 open. The EVM provides a jumper J3 and a test point TP3 connected directly
to the RESET pin for monitoring and/or interfacing to other devices. The reset signal will be asserted low when
MR is pulled low or when the voltage on the VDD pin falls below VIT-. When the voltage on VDD rises higher
than the hysteresis voltage above the threshold voltage, and the MR pin is pulled high or floating, the reset pins
will deassert and remain deasserted until a reset condition occurs again.
5.4 Reset Time Delay Programming (program tD via CT)
The TPS3840 device has two options for setting the RESET time delay: connect CT pin to a capacitor to GND,
or leave CT pin floating. 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 to any value within the range by connecting a capacitor no larger than 10 µF
between CT pin and GND. The relationship between external capacitor (CCT_EXT) at CT pin and the RESET time
delay is given by Equation 1.
tD = -ln (0.29) x RCT x CCT_EXT + tD (no cap)
(1)
Equation 1 is simplified to Equation 2 by plugging RCT and TD(no cap) given in the Electrical Characteristics Table
in TPS3840 Datasheet
tD = 618937 x CCT_EXT + 50 µs
(2)
Equation 3 solves for external capacitor value (CCT_EXT)
CCT_EXT = (tD- 50 µs) ÷ 618937
(3)
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.
The EVM provides the jumper J4 to configure the CT pin and test point TP1 to monitor the CT pin. Place a
shunt jumper on pin 2 (middle pin) and pin 3 (left pin) of jumper J4 to connect CT to delay capacitor C2. This
connects the CT pin to a 1-µF capacitor to set the RESET delay (tD) to ~619 ms as shown in Figure 5-5. Or
place a shunt jumper on pin 1 (right pin) and pin 2 (middle pin) of jumper J4 to connect CT to delay capacitor
C3. This connects the CT pin to a 0.01-µF capacitor to set the RESET delay (tD) to ~6.2 ms as shown in Figure
5-6. By removing the shunt jumper from jumper J4, the RESET time delay defaults to the minimum value of 50
µs. Figure 5-7 shows the actual delay with no capacitor may be shorter than the typical value of 50 µs. If using a
different delay capacitor, the capacitor must be ≥ 100 pF to be recognized.
