The TPS386000RGPR is an integrated circuit (IC) component developed by Texas Instruments. This device is a voltage supervisor with an adjustable threshold and a push-pull output. It is primarily designed to monitor a supply voltage and generate a reset signal when the voltage drops below a certain threshold.
One of the key features of the TPS386000RGPR is its wide operating voltage range, which makes it suitable for a variety of applications. The device can operate with a supply voltage as low as 0.65V and as high as 5.5V, enabling it to be used in both low-power systems and higher voltage environments.
Another important feature is the flexibility of the threshold voltage adjustment. Using an external resistor divider, the threshold voltage can be configured to a precise level, allowing the user to set the desired monitoring voltage. This adjustable threshold feature makes the TPS386000RGPR versatile, as it can be customized to meet specific system requirements.
The push-pull output configuration of the TPS386000RGPR is another notable feature. This means that the reset signal it generates is capable of driving both high and low voltage levels, offering more flexibility in interfacing with other circuits. Additionally, the push-pull output can sink up to 10mA of current, further enhancing its compatibility with various loads.
The TPS386000RGPR also provides built-in hysteresis, which helps in minimizing false reset signals caused by voltage fluctuations or noise
