Low-current supply voltage supervisor

TI's new TLC7733 supply voltage supervisor offers designers precision control of 3.3-V microprocessor voltage supplies in battery-powered systems. Typical applications include notebooks, PDAs, games, and test and measurement equipment.

Requiring only 16 uA (max) of supply current, the TLC7733 offers battery-saving micropower operation and static memory backup while reducing board space. TLC77xx devices are also available in 3-V, 5-V and adjustable versions.

TLC7733	8-pin SOIC	$ .75
	8-pin DIP	$ .75

Suggested retail pricing in U.S. dollars in 1K quantity.

Features:

• 16 uA max) current supply
  
• Preset 2.93 V reset threshold
  
• 1-V RESET-output on power-up
  
• No external pull-up or pull-down required
  
• -40 to 125 degrees C
