ADVANCE INFORMATION
Figure 7-3 illustrates an example of how to adjust the voltage threshold with external resistor dividers. The resistors can be calculated depending on the desired voltage threshold and device part number. Adjustable voltage threshold variants bypass the internal resistor ladder.
For example, consider a 48V rail, VMON, being monitored for undervoltage (UV) only using of the TPS37100Z91DDYYRQ1 variant, as shown in Figure 7-3. The monitored UV threshold, denoted as VMON-, is the desired voltage where the device asserts the reset. For this example VMON- = 40V. To assert an undervoltage reset the voltage at the sense pin, VSENSE, needs to be equal or lower to the input threshold positive, VITN. For this example variant VSENSE = VITN = 0.8V. Using R1 and R2 the correlation between VMON- and VSENSE can be seen in Equation 1. Assuming R2 = 2kΩ, and R1 can be calculated as R1 = 98kΩ.
The TPS37100Z91DDYYRQ1 comes with variant specific 1% voltage threshold hysteresis. For the reset signal to become deasserted, VMON must go above VITN + VHYS. For this example variant a 1% voltage threshold hysteresis was selected. Therefore, VMON equals 40.4V when the reset signal becomes deasserted.
