TPS3808: what the reset pin behavior during VDD<1.7V

Part Number: TPS3808

Tool/software:

We are using TPS3808G01 for our new project design.

Our architecture is:

  • Our Sense signal, we keep it in safe zone, ya. (First power-up, and > 0.405V)

We have some questions:

  1. VDD < 0.8V, is undefined state, right?
  2. When VDD ramp up from 0.8V to 3.3V, Reset pin, will it driving low, possible?
  3. VDD < 1.65V, then Reset pin, for sure low state, is it?

We need to clarify these points, thanks.

  • Hi Dimitry,

    If VDD< 0.8V - > The device has not enough power and therefore the output is unknown. It could be high or low. 

    If  0.8< VDD<1.7V - >  the RESET signal is asserted and low impedance, respectively, regardless of the voltage on the SENSE pin.

     If VDD> 1.7V - >  the RESET signal is determined by the voltage on the SENSE pin and the logic state of MR.

    Hope this clarify! 

    Best,

    Sila
