
The TS3003 is a single-supply, second-generation
Touchstone Semi oscillator/timer fully specified to
operate at a supply voltage range of 1.55V to 5.25V
while consuming less than 2.4μA(max) supply
current. Requiring only a resistor to set the base
output frequency (or output period) at 25kHz (or
40µs) with a 50% duty cycle, the TS3003
timer/oscillator is compact, easy-to-use, and versatile.
Optimized for ultra-long life, low frequency,
battery-powered/portable applications, TS3003 joins
the TS3001, TS3002, TS3004, and TS3006 in
Touchstone’s CMOS timer family in its “NanoWatt
Analog™” series of high-performance analog
integrated circuits.

FUNCTION
Fixed Frequency Output. A push-pull output stage with an
output resistance of 160Ω. FOUT pin swings from GND to
VDD. For lowest power operation, capacitance loads should
be minimized and resistive loads should be maximized.
Non-Connect.
Pulse-width Modulated Output. A push-pull output stage with
an output resistance of 160Ω, the PWMOUT pin is wired antiphase with respect to FOUT and swings from GND to VDD.
For lowest power operation, capacitance loads should be
minimized and resistive loads should be maximized.
PWM Output Pulse Control Pin. Applying a voltage between
GND and VRSET will reduce the duty cycle of the PWMOUT
output that is set by the capacitor connected to the CPWM
pin. Connect PWM_CNTRL to VDD for fixed PWMOUT output
pulse time (determined only by capacitor at CPWM).
Ground. Connect this pin to the system’s analog ground
plane.
PWMOUT Pulse Width Programming Capacitance Input. A
target capacitance connected from this pin to GND sets the
duty cycle of the PMW output. Minimize any stray capacitance
on this pin. The voltage on this pin will swing from GND to
VRSET. Connect CPWM to VDD to disable PWM function
(saves PWM current).
Power Supply Voltage Input. The supply voltage range is
1.55V ≤ VDD ≤ 5.25V. Bypass this pin with a 0.1uF ceramic
coupling capacitor in close proximity to the TS3003.
FOUT Programming Resistor Input. A 4.32MOhm resistor
connected from this pin to ground sets the T3003’s internal
oscillator’s output period to 40µs (25KHz). For optimal
performance, the composition of the RSET resistor shall be
consistent with a tolerance of 1% or lower. The RSET pin
voltage is approximately 0.3V.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The TS3003 is a user-programmable oscillator where
the period of the square wave at its FOUT terminal is
generated by an external resistor connected to the
RSET pin. The output frequency is given by:

RTFDS
TS3003
With an RSET = 4.32MΩ, the output frequency is
approximately 25kHz with a 50% duty cycle. As
design aids, Tables 1 lists TS3003’s typical O T for
various standard values for RSET.
The output frequency can be user-adjusted from
10kHz to 300kHz with a single resistor. The TS3003
also provides a separate PWM output signal at its
PWMOUT terminal that is anti-phase with respect to
FOUT. A dead time of approximately 106ns exists
between FOUT and PWMOUT. To adjust the pulse
width of the PWMOUT output, a single capacitor can
be placed at the CPWM pin. To determine the
capacitance needed for a desired pulse width, the
following equation is to be used:
C WM
=
ulse Width s x C WM
VC WM 300mV
Equation 2. CPWM Capacitor Calculation
where ICPWM and VCPWM is the current supplied and
voltage applied to the CPWM capacitor, respectively.
The pulse width is determined based on the period of
FOUT and should never be greater than the period at
FOUT. Make sure the PWM_CNTRL pin is set to at
least 400mV when calculating the pulse width of
PWMOUT. Note VCPWM is approximately 300mV,
which is the RSET voltage. Also note that I CPWM is
approximately 1µA.
The PWMOUT output pulse width can be adjusted
further after selecting a CPWM capacitor. This can be
achieved by applying a voltage to the PWM_CNTRL
pin between VRSET and GND. With a voltage of at
least VRSET, the pulse width is set based on Equation
2. For example, with a period of
40µs( 25kHz) a
47pF capacitor at the CPWM pin generates a pulse
width of approximately 16µs. This can be calculated
using equation 2. By reducing the PWM_CNTRL
voltage from VRSET 300mV to GND, the pulse width
is reduced from 16µs to approximately 8µs. This is a
pulse width reduction of 50%. Note that as the FOUT
frequency increases, the amount of pulse width
reduction reduces and vice versa. Furthermore, if the
PWMOUT output is half the frequency of the FOUT
output, this means your CPWM capacitor is too large
and as a result, the pulse width is greater than the
FOUT period. In this case, use Equation 2 and
reduce the capacitor value to less than the period.
Connect CPWM to VDD to disable the PWM function
and in turn, save power. Connect PWM_CNTRL to
VDD for a fixed PWMOUT output pulse width, which
is determined by the CPWM pin capacitor only.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Minimizing Power Consumption
To keep the TS3003’s power consumption low,
resistive loads at the FOUT and PWMOUT terminals
increase dc power consumption and therefore should
be as large as possible. Capacitive loads at the
FOUT and PWMOUT terminals increase the
TS3003’s transient power consumption and, as well,
should be as small as possible.
One challenge to minimizing the TS3003’s transient
power consumption is the probe capacitance of
oscilloscopes and frequency counter instruments.
Most instruments exhibit an input capacitance of
15pF or more. Unless buffered, the increase in
transient load current can be as much as 400nA.
To minimize capacitive loading, the technique shown
in Figure 1 can be used. In this circuit, the principle of
Figure 1: Using an External Capacitor in Series with
Probes Reduces Effective Capacitive Load.
series-connected capacitors can be used to reduce
the effective capacitive load at the TS3003’s O T
and PWMOUT terminals.
To determine the optimal value for CEXT once the
probe capacitance is known by simply solving for
CEXT using the following expression:
C
T

Equation 3:External Capacitor Calculation
or example, if the instrument’s input probe
capacitance is 15pF and the desired effective load
capacitance at either or both FOUT and PWMOUT
terminals is to be ≤5p , then the value of CEXT should
be ≤7.5p .

TS3003
TS3003 Start-up Time
As the TS3003 is powered up, its FOUT terminal
(and PWMOUT terminal, if enabled) is active once
the applied VDD is higher than 1.55V. Once the
applied VDD is higher than 1.55V, the master
oscillator achieves steady-state operation within 8ms.
Divide the PWMOUT Output Frequency by Two
with the TS3003
Using a single resistor and capacitor, the TS3003 can
be configured to a divide by two circuit as shown in
Figure 2. To achieve a divide by two function with the
TS3003, the pulse width of the PWMOUT output
must be at least a factor of 2 greater than the period
set at FOUT by resistor RSET. The CPWM capacitor
selected must meet this pulse width requirement and
can be calculated using Equation 2. In Figure 3, a
value of 4.32MΩ for RS T sets the O T output
period to 40µs. A CPWM capacitor of 265pF was
chosen, which sets the pulse width of PWMOUT to
approximately 80µs. This is well above the required
minimum pulse width of 40µs.
Using the TS3003 and a Potentiometer to Dim an
LED
The TS3003 can be configured to dim an LED by
modulating the pulse width of the PWMOUT output.
With an RSET= 2MΩ, the O T output frequency is
approximately 51kHz (or 19.5µs period). Refer to
Figure 3. The CPWM capacitor was calculated using
Equation 2 with a pulse width of 15µs. To reduce the
pulse width from 15µs and in turn, dim the LED, a
1MΩ potentiometer is used. The potentiometer is
connected to the PWM_CNTRL pin in a voltage
divider configuration. The supply voltage of the circuit
is 5V.
