Product details
Overview
LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a precision quad supply monitor IC in a 6-lead TSOT-23 package, designed to supervise four independent voltage rails-5V, 3.3V, 2.5V, and 1.8V-with ±1.5% threshold accuracy over temperature. It delivers active-low open-drain reset output with 200ms delay, ultralow 20µA quiescent current, and guaranteed reset assertion down to VCC = 0.5V. It is deployed in multivoltage systems such as optical networking equipment and network servers for reliable power-up sequencing and brownout protection.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF pinout, LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF application, or LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its fixed 10% undervoltage thresholds per rail, internal VCC generation from V1/V2, low-voltage pull-down capability below 1V, and compatibility with noisy industrial power environments requiring glitch immunity and no external hysteresis.
Technical Context
The LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF implements four independent comparators referenced to a bandgap-derived 0.5V core, each scaled to match nominal input voltages (5V, 3.3V, 2.5V, 1.8V). Its reset logic holds RST low until all four inputs exceed their respective thresholds for a continuous 200ms window, with built-in transient filtering that rejects sub-150µs glitches exceeding 1% of threshold.
VCC is autonomously generated from the higher of V1 or V2 (5V and 3.3V respectively), eliminating need for external bias. The RST output features an internal ~10µA weak pull-up to V2 and robust pulldown strength derived from V1/V2/V3-enabling reliable reset assertion even when monitored supplies dip to 0.5V while maintaining VOL ≤ 150mV at 5µA sink current.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Monitored Voltages | 5V (V1), 3.3V (V2), 2.5V (V3), 1.8V (V4) - fixed thresholds per pin, no external resistors required |
| Threshold Accuracy | ±1.5% over –40°C to +85°C - enables tight system voltage margining without derating for supervisor error |
| Reset Delay | 200ms (140–260ms min–max) - ensures stable power delivery before releasing system reset |
| Supply Current | 20µA typical - supports battery-backed or ultra-low-power applications without compromising supervision integrity |
| RST Output Type | Active-low open-drain with internal ~10µA pull-up to V2 - allows wired-OR reset buses and flexible external pull-up to higher voltages |
| Min Operating VCC | 0.5V guaranteed - maintains reset assertion during deep brownout, preventing floating RST node and erroneous logic states |
| Input Leakage | V1: 25–80µA, V2: 10–30µA, V3: 10–30µA, V4: 2–4µA - minimizes loading on sensitive or high-impedance supply rails |

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V1 (Pin 1) | Main voltage input / VCC source | Monitors 5V rail; supplies internal VCC when ≥ V2; bypass with 0.1µF capacitor |
| GND (Pin 2) | Reference ground | Common return for all comparators, reset logic, and internal reference |
| V2 (Pin 3) | Secondary voltage input / VCC source | Monitors 3.3V rail; supplies VCC if > V1; internal pull-up target for RST |
| V3 (Pin 4) | Tertiary voltage input | Monitors 2.5V rail; assists RST pulldown circuitry below 1V |
| V4 (Pin 5) | Quaternary voltage input | Monitors 1.8V rail; contributes to low-voltage pulldown strength |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad-supply monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC2900CS6#TRMPBF | 16 user-selectable voltage combinations via pin-strapping; same ±1.5% accuracy and 200ms delay but lacks ultralow 0.5V VCC operation | Preferred when design requires configurable thresholds (e.g., 3.3V/2.5V/1.8V/1.2V) rather than fixed B1 set | Select LTC2900 if future voltage variants or field-programmable thresholds are needed; LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF is optimal for cost-sensitive, fixed-rail deployments. |
| LTC2902IS6#TRPBF | Includes RST disable function and adjustable tolerance (5% or 10%); identical pinout and B1 voltage set but adds EN pin for reset inhibition | Suitable when system-level firmware must temporarily suppress reset during diagnostics or hot-swap events | Choose LTC2902 only if RST disable capability is required; otherwise LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF offers lower cost and simpler integration. |
Compared with LTC2900 and LTC2902, the LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF provides the most direct fit for fixed 5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V monitoring with best-in-class 0.5V VCC operation and lowest quiescent current-making it ideal for thermally constrained, high-reliability infrastructure applications where configurability is unnecessary.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF?
The LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF is rated for industrial temperature operation from –40°C to +85°C. This range is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and applies to all electrical specifications marked with the ● symbol in the Electrical Characteristics section. The device is qualified per Linear Technology's standard industrial reliability test flow, making it suitable for deployment in base station radios, optical line cards, and server motherboards exposed to extended thermal profiles.
Does the LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF require external resistors to set its voltage thresholds?
No, the LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF does not require external resistors. It is factory-configured for fixed 10% undervoltage thresholds: 4.425V (5V), 2.921V (3.3V), 2.213V (2.5V), and 1.593V (1.8V). These values are laser-trimmed during production and guaranteed over temperature. External resistors are only used with adjustable variants like LTC2903-D1 or -E1-not with the LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF.
How does the LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF generate its internal supply voltage (VCC)?
The LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF generates its internal VCC automatically from the higher of the two primary supply inputs: V1 (5V) or V2 (3.3V). This eliminates the need for a separate bias supply. When both are present, VCC tracks the greater voltage; if only one is active, VCC derives from that rail. This architecture ensures operation even if one monitored rail fails, and enables guaranteed reset assertion down to VCC = 0.5V.
Can the RST output of the LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF drive a microcontroller reset pin directly?
Yes, the RST output of the LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF can drive a microcontroller reset pin directly when used with an appropriate external pull-up resistor (e.g., 10kΩ to VCC or IOVDD). Its open-drain structure and guaranteed sink capability (≥5µA at VOL ≤ 150mV, VCC = 0.5V) ensure clean, noise-immune reset signaling. The internal ~10µA pull-up to V2 is insufficient for most MCUs, so an external pull-up is recommended for reliable rise time and voltage level compliance.
What makes the LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF more noise-immune than basic reset ICs?
The LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF achieves superior noise immunity through two integrated mechanisms: (1) proprietary comparator transient filtering that rejects glitches shorter than ~150µs-even at 1% overdrive-and (2) a 200ms reset timeout counter that clears on any threshold violation, preventing oscillation. Unlike competitors using hysteresis-which degrades stated accuracy-the LTC2903IS6-B1#TRPBF maintains ±1.5% threshold precision while rejecting noise.
