TPS3801K33DCKT Voltage Detector

The TPS3801K33DCKT is a high-precision voltage detector designed and manufactured by Texas Instruments. This component is specifically tailored for systems that require an accurate monitoring of supply voltage. It is an essential part of any power management system, ensuring that the device operates within safe voltage levels and provides an early warning for potential power failures.

This voltage detector operates over a supply range of 1.5V to 6.5V, making it versatile for various applications. The TPS3801K33DCKT features a fixed-sense threshold voltage of 3.3V, which is a common requirement for many digital systems. Its high accuracy of ±2% ensures reliable monitoring and response to voltage variations.

The device comes in a compact, 5-pin SC-70 package, which is suitable for space-constrained applications. It offers a low quiescent current of 6.5 µA (typical), which is beneficial for battery-powered devices, as it helps to prolong battery life by minimizing power consumption when the system is in a standby state.

One of the key features of the TPS3801K33DCKT is its built-in hysteresis, which prevents false triggering due to transient conditions, providing a more stable operation. When the monitored voltage falls below the threshold, the output will transition to active low, allowing it to interface directly with a microcontroller or other logic circuits to initiate appropriate actions, such as shutdown sequences or alerts.

The device's fast response time is crucial for protecting sensitive electronic components from damage due to under-voltage conditions. Additionally, the TPS3801K33DCKT is characterized for operation over a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, making it reliable in diverse environments and applications including portable electronics, industrial controls, and embedded systems.

In summary, the TPS3801K33DCKT from Texas Instruments is a reliable and precise voltage detector that offers a simple yet effective solution for voltage monitoring needs across a wide array of electronic applications.
