Hi Support Team,
We are currently utilizing the TLV809EC26DBZR in our circuit design and have encountered an issue where the Reset pin frequently fails to output a High signal. In our configuration, the Reset pin is connected to a CPLD input and includes a 0.1uF capacitor to GND.
To diagnose the issue, we conducted the following experiments:
-
Removed the TLV809E and added a 100k pull-up resistor: The High signal was output correctly, confirming the CPLD input is functional.
-
Connected the TLV809E VDD pin directly to the 3V3 rail: The Reset pin functioned normally (High).
-
Reduced the resistance values of the original voltage divider: The Reset pin functioned normally (High).
-
Removed the 0.1uF capacitor from the Reset pin: The Reset pin functioned normally (High).
Based on these results, we suspect that the charging current of the Reset capacitor causes a voltage drop. When VDD is supplied via a high-impedance resistor divider, the voltage may momentarily dip below the threshold, causing the device to reassert Reset.
Could you please clarify whether the TLV809EC26DBZR supports divider-fed VDD, or if it is strictly intended to be supplied by a low-impedance power rail?
We look forward to your professional feedback. Thank you.
