Product details
Overview
LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower triple supply monitor and microprocessor supervisory IC designed for systems requiring simultaneous monitoring of 2.5V, 3.3V, and an adjustable voltage rail. It features ±1.5% threshold accuracy over temperature, adjustable reset timeout (via RT pin capacitor), adjustable watchdog timeout (via WT pin capacitor), and guaranteed RST assertion down to VCC3 ≥ 1V or VCC25 ≥ 1V - enabling reliable power-up sequencing in portable battery-powered equipment.
For engineers reviewing the LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF datasheet, LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF pinout, LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF application, or LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.5V/3.3V/ADJ monitoring configuration, 16µA typical supply current, MS8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts, and open-drain active-low RST output with weak internal pull-up to VCC3.
Technical Context
The LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF implements independent comparator-based sensing on VCC25 (2.5V nominal), VCC3 (3.3V nominal), and VCCA (adjustable, 1V nominal), with trip thresholds of 2.337V, 3.085V, and 0.985V respectively at TA = 25°C. Reset assertion occurs when any monitored supply falls below its threshold, and remains asserted for a user-defined delay set by CRT capacitance on the RT pin.
Its watchdog function monitors µP activity via WDI edge transitions; failure to clear the timer within the CWT-defined period triggers reset. The device derives operating power from whichever of VCC25 or VCC3 is higher, ensuring RST remains valid during brownout and power-up transients - critical for deterministic system initialization in notebook computers and intelligent instruments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC25 Threshold | 2.337V (±1.5% over temp); ensures accurate 2.5V rail supervision without false resets |
| VCC3 Threshold | 3.085V (±1.5% over temp); matches standard 3.3V LDO outputs with tight tolerance |
| VCCA Threshold | 0.985V (±1.5% over temp); supports precise monitoring of adjustable or low-voltage rails |
| Supply Current | 16µA typical; enables use in always-on, battery-critical applications like portable medical devices |
| RST Output Type | Active-low open-drain with weak 6µA internal pull-up to VCC3; allows flexible logic-level interfacing |
| Reset Timeout Range | Adjustable from ~5ms to >1s via CRT capacitor (tRT = 3.30 × CRT); accommodates diverse µP startup times |
| Watchdog Timeout Range | Adjustable from ~33ms to >1s via CWT capacitor (tWT = 21.8 × CWT); aligns with software execution cycles |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead plastic MSOP (MS8), 3.0mm × 3.0mm × 0.86mm body, 0.65mm pitch, –40°C to +85°C operating range.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC3 (Pin 1) | 3.3V supply sense input & primary power source | Senses 3.3V rail; powers internal circuitry when ≥ VCC25; requires 0.1µF bypass to GND |
| VCC25 (Pin 2) | 2.5V supply sense input & alternate power source | Senses 2.5V rail; powers device if > VCC3; must be bypassed with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor |
| VCCA (Pin 3) | Adjustable voltage sense input (1V nominal) | Monitors user-defined rail (e.g., DC/DC feedback node); high-impedance input, can tie to VCC3 or VCC25 if unused |
| GND (Pin 4) | Analog and digital ground reference | Common return path for all comparators and timing circuits; must connect to clean system ground |
| WDI (Pin 5) | Watchdog input trigger | Edge-sensitive (rising/falling); clears watchdog timer; must be driven by µP I/O or grounded to disable |
| RST (Pin 6) | Active-low reset output | Open-drain output asserted low during fault or timeout; weak internal pull-up to VCC3; external pull-up required for 5V logic |
| WT (Pin 7) | Watchdog timeout timing input | Connect capacitor to GND to set tWT = 21.8 × CWT (µs); grounding disables watchdog |
| RT (Pin 8) | Reset timeout timing input | Connect capacitor to GND to set tRT = 3.30 × CRT (µs); determines minimum reset pulse width after power-up |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar triple-supply monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC1326-2.5 | ±0.75% threshold accuracy; fixed 2.363V/3.118V/1.0V thresholds; no adjustable watchdog | Higher accuracy but less flexible timing; no WDI input - suitable only where watchdog is unnecessary | Select LTC1326-2.5 when absolute threshold precision outweighs need for programmable watchdog behavior |
| LTC1727-2.5 | Individual open-drain RST outputs per supply (RST3, RST25, RSTA); same ±1.5% accuracy and timing adjustability | Enables supply-specific fault isolation and selective reset assertion - not possible with shared RST of LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF | Choose LTC1727-2.5 when diagnostics require identifying which specific rail failed, not just overall system reset |
Compared with LTC1326-2.5, the LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF trades threshold precision for watchdog functionality and timing adjustability; compared with LTC1727-2.5, it offers cost and board-space savings via single RST output but lacks per-rail fault visibility.

FAQ
What is the exact supply voltage monitoring configuration of the LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF?
The LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF is factory-configured to monitor three specific rails: VCC25 (2.5V nominal, 2.337V threshold), VCC3 (3.3V nominal, 3.085V threshold), and VCCA (adjustable, 0.985V threshold). This configuration is distinct from the LTC1726EMS8-5#TRPBF, which monitors 5V/3.3V/ADJ. The LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF cannot be reconfigured to monitor 5V instead of 2.5V.
How does the LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF ensure correct RST behavior during power-up when both 2.5V and 3.3V supplies ramp at different rates?
The LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF guarantees RST remains asserted until both VCC25 and VCC3 exceed their respective thresholds (2.337V and 3.085V), then holds reset for the user-defined timeout set by the CRT capacitor on the RT pin. Its dual-supply power architecture - drawing current from whichever of VCC25 or VCC3 is higher - ensures RST stays valid even if one rail rises significantly slower than the other.
Can the watchdog function of the LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF be disabled without modifying the PCB layout?
Yes. To disable the watchdog function of the LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF, connect both the WDI (Pin 5) and WT (Pin 7) terminals directly to GND. This configuration disables watchdog timing while preserving full triple-supply monitoring and adjustable reset timeout functionality - no PCB changes beyond jumpering two pins are required.
What is the minimum operating voltage required for the LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF to assert a valid RST signal?
The LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF guarantees correct RST logic state (low) for VCC3 ≥ 1V or VCC25 ≥ 1V. Below 1V on both inputs, RST behavior is undefined. This 1V minimum ensures robust reset assertion during brownout conditions well before most 2.5V or 3.3V logic circuits lose functionality.
Does the LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF support monitoring an adjustable rail higher than 1.8V?
Yes. While the VCCA input has a nominal 1V threshold, it is designed for use with external resistor dividers to scale higher voltages (e.g., 5V, 12V) down to the 1V detection range. The LTC1726EMS8-2.5#TRPBF datasheet provides example circuits using precision resistors (e.g., R1 = 1.07MΩ, R2 = 105kΩ) to monitor 12V rails with ±0.17V trip accuracy - confirming direct support for scaled high-voltage rails.
