Product details
Overview
LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a precision quad supply monitor IC in a 6-lead TSOT-23 package, designed to supervise four voltage rails simultaneously with guaranteed reset assertion down to VCC = 0.5V. It monitors fixed 5V on V1 and three adjustable inputs (V2/V3/V4) referenced to an internal 0.5V bandgap, supports ±1.5% threshold accuracy over temperature, and delivers 200ms reset timeout - ideal for multivoltage telecom and server power sequencing.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF datasheet, LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF pinout, LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF application, or LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 5V/ADJ/ADJ/ADJ monitoring configuration, ultralow-voltage reset capability below 0.5V, open-drain RST output with V1-referenced weak pull-up, 20µA quiescent current, and compatibility with high-noise industrial power-up sequences requiring glitch immunity and no hysteresis-induced accuracy loss.
Technical Context
The LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF implements four independent comparators, each comparing an input voltage against a precise 0.5V internal reference (for adjustable inputs) or a factory-trimmed threshold (4.675V ±1.5% for V1). Its internal VCC is derived solely from V1, enabling operation even when other supplies are absent - a critical feature for brownout detection during partial power loss.
Reset assertion requires all four inputs to remain below their respective thresholds; deassertion occurs only after all inputs exceed thresholds and sustain compliance for 200ms. The RST output uses an open-drain NMOS pulldown driven by V1 and a weak internal pull-up to V1 (10µA typical), eliminating need for external biasing in single-supply systems while supporting wired-OR reset architectures.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| V1 Threshold | 4.675V ±1.5% (5V, 5% reset) - ensures reliable reset at 4.425V minimum under worst-case temp/voltage drift |
| V2/V3/V4 Threshold | 0.500V ±0.008V internal reference - enables user-defined trip points via resistor dividers (e.g., 12V → 11.25V) |
| Reset Timeout | 200ms nominal (140–260ms range) - provides robust filtering of supply transients <5Hz without hysteresis degradation |
| Supply Current | 20µA typical - minimizes loading on monitored rails, critical for battery-backed or low-power systems |
| RST Low Voltage | ≤150mV at VCC = 0.5V / IRST = 5µA - guarantees logic-low reset signal even during deep brownout |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to 85°C (I-grade) - validated for industrial and telecom base station environments |
| Package | 6-lead TSOT-23 (1mm height) - enables dense PCB layouts in space-constrained optical networking modules |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-lead plastic TSOT-23 (JEDEC MO-193), 1.90mm × 2.80mm footprint, 1.00mm max height, lead pitch 0.95mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V1 (Pin 1) | Main supply input & VCC source | Supplies internal regulator; sets 5V fixed threshold; must be bypassed with ≥0.1µF capacitor |
| GND (Pin 2) | Analog/digital ground reference | Common return for all comparators and RST driver; requires low-impedance connection |
| V2 (Pin 3) | Adjustable voltage input | Compares against 0.5V reference; used with external R-divider to monitor custom rail (e.g., 3.3V, 2.5V) |
| V3 (Pin 4) | Adjustable voltage input | Same function as V2; supports independent monitoring of third rail (e.g., 1.8V, 1.2V) |
| V4 (Pin 5) | Adjustable voltage input | Same function as V2/V3; enables full quad monitoring of non-standard supplies |
| RST (Pin 6) | Open-drain reset output | Pulls low when any input underruns; internal 10µA pull-up to V1; sinks ≥5µA down to 0.5V |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultralow-voltage reset guarantee | RST remains functional with VCC as low as 0.5V - prevents spurious release during deep brownout |
| No hysteresis architecture | Maintains ±1.5% threshold accuracy without sacrificing noise immunity - uses comparator transient integration instead |
| Triple adjustable inputs | V2/V3/V4 each compare to 0.5V reference - enables monitoring of arbitrary positive rails using standard 1% resistors |
| V1-sourced internal supply | VCC generated exclusively from V1 - eliminates dependency on other rails for supervision integrity |
| Glitch-immune timing | 200ms reset timeout with automatic reset-on-violation - rejects short transients while ensuring clean system initialization |
Applications
| Telecom Power Sequencing | Optical Line Card Supervision |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Monitoring 5V bias, 3.3V logic, 2.5V PHY, and 1.8V SerDes supplies in a 10Gbps optical transceiver module. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Quad supply monitor enforcing strict power-up order and detecting brownout on any rail before FPGA configuration begins. Use Value: Prevents configuration corruption by holding RST low until all rails stabilize above 4.425V (V1), 3.036V (V2), 2.175V (V3), and 1.566V (V4) for 200ms. |
Use Scenario: Supervising distributed 12V, 5V, 3.3V, and 1.2V rails across a multi-layer optical line card with hot-swap capability. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Centralized reset generator that asserts system-wide reset if any monitored rail drops below its threshold during hot-insertion. Use Value: Enables safe hot-swap by guaranteeing RST stays low until all rails reach valid levels - critical for preventing latch-up in pluggable modules. |
| Industrial Server Baseboard | Cellular Base Station PSU |
Use Scenario: Validating 5V management controller, 3.3V I/O, 1.8V memory, and 0.85V core supplies on an ATX-compatible server motherboard. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fault-tolerant power-good arbiter feeding reset to BMC and CPU VRM enable logic. Use Value: Provides deterministic 200ms reset hold time after power-on, eliminating race conditions between VRMs and digital logic during cold start. |
Use Scenario: Monitoring 48V DC-DC converter outputs (24V, 12V, 5V, 3.3V) in a macrocell base station power distribution unit. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Redundant supervisor verifying primary and backup power paths before enabling RF amplifiers. Use Value: Ensures amplifier enable only occurs after both primary and backup 5V rails exceed 4.425V for 200ms - preventing RF stage damage during switchover. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad supply monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC2903CS6-D1#TRMPBF | Fixed 3.3V threshold on V1; same triple-adjustable V2/V3/V4 architecture | Better suited for 3.3V-centric systems (e.g., legacy embedded controllers) where 5V monitoring is unnecessary | Select D1 when main rail is 3.3V and E1's 5V threshold would require excessive divider attenuation |
| LTC2900CMS8-5#PBF | MSOP-8 package; 16 selectable threshold combinations; no adjustable inputs; ±1.5% accuracy | Offers fixed-rail flexibility (e.g., 5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V) but lacks user-defined trip points for nonstandard voltages | Choose LTC2900 when standardized rail combinations suffice and board space allows larger MSOP-8 footprint |
Compared with LTC2903CS6-D1#TRMPBF and LTC2900CMS8-5#PBF, the LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF uniquely combines 5V fixed supervision with three fully adjustable inputs in the smallest possible footprint - making it optimal for next-generation telecom equipment requiring custom voltage margins and ultra-dense packaging.

FAQ
What is the exact reset threshold voltage for V1 on the LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF?
The LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF has a guaranteed V1 reset threshold of 4.675V ±1.5% (4.600V to 4.750V) over temperature, corresponding to a 5V nominal supply with 5% undervoltage tolerance. This value is factory-trimmed and specified in the Electrical Characteristics table under symbol VRT50 with "●" indicating full-temperature-range validity.
Can the LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF monitor negative voltages like –5.2V?
No, the LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF cannot monitor negative voltages. Its V2, V3, and V4 inputs are designed for positive rails only and reference an internal 0.5V bandgap. For –5.2V monitoring, the LTC2903CS6-C1 variant is required, which includes a dedicated negative-input comparator and absolute maximum rating of –6.5V on V4.
How does the RST output behave when V1 drops below 0.5V?
The LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF guarantees RST output functionality down to VCC = 0.5V, meaning it will actively pull RST low until V1 reaches at least 0.5V. Below this level, the internal circuitry ceases operation and RST enters high-impedance state - requiring an external pull-up resistor to ensure defined logic level in deep brownout conditions.
What external components are mandatory for stable operation of the LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF?
A 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor is mandatory on V1 (Pin 1) to stabilize the internal VCC regulator. No capacitors are required on V2/V3/V4 unless operating in high-noise environments; in such cases, 0.1µF ceramics may be added. An external pull-up resistor on RST is optional but recommended for faster rise times or when interfacing with logic families requiring higher VOH.
Is the LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF pin-compatible with other variants in the LTC2903 family?
Yes, all LTC2903 variants including LTC2903CS6-E1#TRMPBF share identical 6-lead TSOT-23 pinout and package dimensions. However, electrical behavior differs: V1 threshold (5V for E1 vs 3.3V for D1), internal pull-up reference (V1 for E1/D1 vs V2 for A1/B1/C1), and input configurations vary - requiring schematic review before substitution.
