    2.2 Supervised Supply Voltages Table 1 gives an overview of the nominal supply voltages, which can be supervised by the TPS3801 and TPS3809. The values in the column of threshold voltage are the negative-going threshold voltages. The differences between positive-going and negative-going threshold voltage is explained in Chapter 3.

    Applications Figure 19. Measurements of Switching Power With A TPS2051 5.3 Keeping a Low Signal at Reset Output for Voltages Below 1.1 V The reset output is defined for supply voltages above 1.1 V. Below this voltage, a low level at RESET cannot be assured, because the internal transistors need a certain voltage level to pull down the output to ground.

    Applications 5.4 Supervising a Customer Defined Threshold Voltage Both families, TPS3801 and TPS3809, are available with four different fixed threshold voltages, which are 2.25 V, 2.64 V, 2.93 V, and 4.55 V typically. If the customer needs another threshold voltage, it can be adjusted with two external resistors.
