Detailed Design Procedure

The primary constraint for this application is choosing the correct device to monitor the supply voltage of the microprocessor. The TPS389018-Q1 has a negative threshold of 1.73 V and a positive threshold of 1.74 V, making the device suitable for monitoring a 1.8-V rail. The secondary constraint for this application is the reset delay time that must be at least 1 ms to allow the Delfino microprocessor enough time to startup up correctly. Because a minimum time is required, the worst-case scenario is a supervisor with a high CT charging current (ICT) and a low CT comparator threshold (VCT). For applications with ambient temperatures ranging from –40°C to +125°C, CCT can be calculated using ICT(Max), VCT(MIN), and solving for CCT in Equation 1 such that the minimum capacitance required at the CT pin is 1.149 nF. If standard capacitors with ±20% tolerances are used, then the CT capacitor must be 1.5 nF or larger to ensure that the 1-ms delay time is met.

A 0.1-µF decoupling capacitor is connected to the VDD pin as a good analog design practice and a 1-MΩ resistor is used as the RESET pullup resistor to minimize the current consumption when RESET is asserted. The MR pin can be connected to an external signal if desired or connected to VDD if not used.
