Product Overview: TPS3106E09DBVT by Texas Instruments
The TPS3106E09DBVT is a sophisticated supervisory circuit integrated chip (IC) designed by Texas Instruments to provide microprocessor (μP) supervisory functions. This IC is particularly useful in applications where maintaining the integrity of the system's operational status is critical. It is commonly employed in portable electronics, computers, and data storage systems where reliability is paramount.
This supervisory circuit features a precision supply-voltage monitor with a programmable delay timer. The primary function of the TPS3106E09DBVT is to monitor the system voltage and assert a reset signal whenever this voltage drops below a certain threshold, ensuring the μP resets in a reliable and orderly fashion. This reset signal is maintained for a programmable duration after the supply voltage exceeds the threshold, providing stability to the system during power-up sequences.
The TPS3106E09DBVT is offered in a compact SOT-23-6 package, making it an ideal choice for space-constrained applications. It operates over a wide supply voltage range and features low supply current, which is beneficial for battery-powered devices. The device also includes a manual reset (MR) input, allowing for an external trigger to initiate the reset sequence, offering additional control to system designers.
Key features of the TPS3106E09DBVT include:
- Supply voltage supervision range tailored for 0.9V applications.
- Programmable delay time for reset de-assertion.
- Low supply current, enhancing battery life in portable applications.
- Manual reset input for additional system control.
- Compact SOT-23-6 package suitable for space-constrained designs.
As a product of Texas Instruments, a leader in the semiconductor industry, the TPS3106E09DBVT is backed by rigorous quality testing and support. It is engineered to meet the high standards of performance and reliability that customers have come to expect from Texas Instruments products.
