Product details
Overview
LTP5903-WHR from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology/Dust Networks) is a SmartMesh® WirelessHART embedded network manager PCB assembly designed for line-powered gateways and controllers. It implements full WirelessHART (IEC62591) protocol stack, supports up to 500 nodes (LTP5903-WHRC variant), delivers >99.999% network reliability in industrial RF environments, and provides Ethernet and dual UART interfaces for data ingress/egress - enabling scalable bidirectional communications in process automation systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTP5903-WHR datasheet, LTP5903-WHR pinout, LTP5903-WHR application, or LTP5903-WHR equivalent, this page details its role as a standards-compliant, time-synchronized mesh network manager with deterministic power management, intelligent routing, NIST-certified security, and field-proven sub-50 µA routing node support.
Technical Context
The LTP5903-WHR integrates an IEEE 802.15.4 DSSS radio (2.4–2.4835 GHz, 250 kbps raw rate, –92.5 dBm sensitivity), battery-backed RTC (5–7 yr typical), and Linux-based SmartMesh WirelessHART software stack. It performs dynamic network optimization using mote-reported link quality metrics and enforces time-synchronized, frequency-hopping TDMA scheduling across spatially diverse topologies.
Hardware interfaces include 10/100Base-T Ethernet (J10 pins RX_P/TX_P/RX_N/TX_N), two LVTTL UARTs (Serial 1: 115.2 kbps, 8N1; Serial 2: RTS/CTS flow control), SD card interface, and LED status indicators. All I/O operates at 3.3 V LVTTL levels with defined VIH/VIL thresholds and ±5 µA leakage.

Pinout & Package
The LTP5903-WHR is a PCB assembly with two 40-pin FCI/Berg 61083-042400LF board-to-board connectors (J10 and J6), measuring 100 mm × 70 mm (mechanical drawing per section 9.1). No IC package applies - it is a complete embedded module.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| J10 Pin 3 (RX_P) | Ethernet Receive Differential Pair (+) | Connects to magnetics/RJ-45 PHY; requires impedance-controlled 100 Ω differential trace routing. |

FAQ
What is the maximum number of nodes supported by the LTP5903-WHR?
The LTP5903-WHR supports up to 500 nodes in the WHRC variant and up to 250 nodes in the WHRB variant. This capacity is achieved through dynamic network optimization and intelligent routing algorithms embedded in the SmartMesh WirelessHART software stack running on the LTP5903-WHR. Node count is enforced in firmware and verified during network commissioning - exceeding the limit degrades scheduling determinism and reliability.
Does the LTP5903-WHR require an external antenna, and what are the specifications?
Yes, the LTP5903-WHR requires an external 2.4–2.4835 GHz antenna connected via an onboard MMCX jack. Per specification, the antenna must have 50 Ω impedance, ≤ +2 dBi gain, omni-directional pattern, and ≤ 3:1 VSWR. Pre-approved antennas are listed in section 10.1.2 of the official documentation. Mounting must allow vertical orientation and protrusion outside any enclosure for optimal RF performance.
How does the LTP5903-WHR handle time synchronization across the WirelessHART network?
The LTP5903-WHR uses a battery-backed real-time clock (RTC) to initialize the software system clock at boot, which then serves as the UTC time reference for all network operations. The system clock is synchronized via an integrated NTP client configurable through the Admin Toolset or CLI. Time accuracy is ±1 min/month at 25°C, and all mote timestamps are aligned to this master time source for deterministic scheduling and event logging.
What interfaces does the LTP5903-WHR provide for host system integration?
The LTP5903-WHR provides 10/100Base-T Ethernet (J10), two LVTTL UARTs (Serial 1: 5-pin, 115.2 kbps; Serial 2: 9-pin with RTS/CTS), SD card interface, and LED status indicators. Software interfaces include XML API (over Ethernet), Admin Toolset (Web UI), and Command Line Interface (over Serial 2). All digital I/O conforms to LVTTL voltage levels with documented VIH/VIL thresholds and drive strength.
Is the LTP5903-WHR compliant with industrial environmental and regulatory standards?
Yes, the LTP5903-WHR meets industrial operating conditions (–40°C to +85°C, 10–90% RH non-condensing) and carries FCC, IC, CE (including RoHS), and Japan Radio Law certifications. It supports NIST-certified security and complies with IEC62591 WirelessHART standard. Regulatory test reports and labeling requirements are detailed in sections 10.1–10.5 of the official documentation.
