description
The TL7700 is a bipolar integrated circuit designed for use as a reset controller in microcomputer and
microprocessor systems. The SENSE voltage can be set to any value greater than 0.5 V using two external
resistors. The hysteresis value of the sense voltage also can be set by the same resistors. The device includes
a precision voltage reference, fast comparator, timing generator, and output driver, so it can generate a
power-on reset signal in a digital system.
The TL7700 has an internal 1.5-V temperature-compensated voltage reference from which all function blocks
are supplied. Circuit function is very stable, with supply voltage in the 1.8-V to 40-V range. Minimum supply
current allows use with ac line operation, portable battery operation, and automotive applications.
The TL7700C is characterized for operation from –40°C to 85°C.

Terminal Functions
TERMINAL
CT 1
Timing capacitor connection. This terminal sets the RESET output pulse duration (tpo). It is connected internally to a
15-µA constant-current source. There is a limit on the switching speed of internal elements; even if CT is set to 0,
response speeds remain at approximately 5 to 10 µs. If CT is open, the device can be used as an adjustable-threshold
noninverting comparator . If CT is low, the internal output-stage comparator is active and the RESET
output transistor
is on. An external voltage must not be applied to this terminal due to the internal structure of the device. Therefore, drive
the device using an open-collector transistor, FET, or 3-state buffer (in the low-level or high-impedance state).
GND 4 Ground. Keep this terminal as low impedance to reduce circuit noise.
NC 3, 6, 7 No internal connection
RESET 8
Reset output. This terminal can be connected directly to a system that resets in the active-low state. A pullup resistor
usually is required because the output is an npn open-collector transistor. An additional transistor should be connected
when the active-high reset or higher output current is required.
SENSE 2
Voltage sense. This terminal has a threshold level of 500 mV. The sense voltage and hysteresis can be set at the same
time when the two voltage-dividing resistors are connected. The reference voltage is temperature compensated to inhibit
temperature drift in the threshold voltage within the operating temperature range.
V
CC
5 Power supply. This terminal is used in an operating-voltage range of 1.8 V to 40 V.

Stresses beyond those listed under “absolute maximum ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under “recommended operating conditions” is not
implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
NOTES: 1. All voltage values are with respect to the network ground terminal.
2. Maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max), θJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any allowable
ambient temperature is PD = (TJ(max) – TA)/θJA. Operating at the absolute maximum TJ of 150°C can impact reliability.
3. The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51.

detailed description
sense-voltage setting
The sense voltage, V
s
, of the TL7700 typically is 500 mV. By using two external resistors, the circuit designer
can obtain any sense voltage over 500 mV. In Figure 19, the sensing voltage, V′s, is calculated as:
V′s = Vs × (R1 + R2)/R2
Where:
Vs = 500 mV, typically at TA = 25°C
At room temperature, Vs has a variation of 500 mV ± 5 mV. In the basic circuit shown in Figure 19, variations
of [±5 × (R1 + R2)/R2] mV are superimposed on Vs.

sense-voltage hysteresis setting
If the sense voltage, V
s
, does not have hysteresis in it and the voltage on the sensing line contains ripples, the
resetting of TL7700 will be unstable. Hysteresis is added to the sense voltage to prevent such problems. As
shown in Figure 20, the hysteresis, V
hys
, is added, and the value is determined as:
V
hys
= Is × R1
Where:
Is = 2.5 µA, typically at TA = 25°C
At room temperature, Is has variations of 2.5 µA ± 0.5 µA. Therefore, in the circuit shown in Figure 19, V
hys
has
variations of (±0.5 × R1) µV. In circuit design, it is necessary to consider the voltage-dividing resistor tolerance
and temperature coefficient in addition to variations in V
s
and V
hys
.

output pulse-duration setting
Constant-current charging starts on the timing capacitor when the sensing-line voltage reaches the TL7700
sense voltage. When the capacitor voltage exceeds the threshold level of the output drive comparator, RESET
changes from a low to a high level. The output pulse duration is the time between the point when the sense-pin
voltage exceeds the threshold level and the point when the RESET
output changes from a low level to a high
level. When the TL7700 is used for system power-on reset, the output pulse duration, tpo, must be set longer
than the power rise time. The value of tpo is:
tpo = Ct × 105 seconds
Where:
Ct is the timing capacitor in farads
There is a limit on the device response speed. Even if Ct = 0, tpo is not 0, but approximately 5 µs to 10 µs.
Therefore, when the TL7700 is used as a comparator with hysteresis, without connecting Ct, switching speeds
(tr/tf, tpo/tpd, etc.) must be considered.
