Monitoring the 1.8V Rail

The undervoltage comparator allows for precise voltage supervision of common rails between 1.8V and 5.0V. This application calls for very tight monitoring of the rail with only 5% of variation allowed on the rail. To make sure this requirement is met, the TPS3851G18S-Q1 is chosen for the –4% threshold. To calculate the worst-case for VITN, the accuracy must also be taken into account. The worst-case for VITN can be calculated by Equation 4:

Equation 4. VITN(Worst Case) = VITN(typ) × 0.992 = 1.8 × 0.96 × 0.992 = 1.714V
