SNVSBZ2E March 2021 – December 2023 TPS3704
PRODUCTION DATA
The SENSEx input can monitor supply rails from 0 V to 5.55 V, regardless of the device
supply voltage used. The SENSEx pins are used to monitor critical voltage rails or
push-button inputs. If the voltage on this pin drops below VIT-(UV) or goes above
VIT+(OV), then RESETx/RESETx is asserted. When the voltage
on the SENSEx pin rises above the positive threshold voltage VIT-(UV) +
VHYS or goes below the negative threshold voltage VIT+(OV) -
VHYS,
RESETx/RESETx
deasserts after the set RESETx/RESETx delay time. The internal
comparators have built-in hysteresis to ensure well-defined
RESETx/RESETx assertions and deassertions even when there are small
changes on the voltage rail being monitored.
The TPS3704x combines comparators with a precision reference voltage and a trimmed resistor divider. This configuration optimizes device accuracy because all resistor tolerances are accounted for in the accuracy and performance specifications. The TPS3704x device is relatively immune to short transients on the SENSEx pin. Although not required in most cases, for noisy applications, good analog design practice is to place a 10-nF to 100-nF bypass capacitor at the SENSEx inputs to reduce sensitivity to transient voltages on the monitored signals.
