Product details
Overview
LTC2910IGN#TRPBF from Analog Devices (acquired Linear Technology) is an octal-input voltage supervisor IC designed for precise undervoltage monitoring of multiple positive and negative supply rails in complex power systems. It features eight 0.5V threshold comparators with ±1.5% accuracy over –40°C to +85°C, glitch-filtered reset outputs, adjustable timeout via external capacitor, and pin-selectable polarity for V7/V8 inputs. It is used in server motherboard power sequencing and multi-rail FPGA/ASIC core-I/O monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2910IGN#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2910IGN#TRPBF pinout, LTC2910IGN#TRPBF application, or LTC2910IGN#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include guaranteed RST/RST assertion at VCC ≥ 1V, buffered 1V reference output, open-drain dual reset outputs with internal weak pull-ups, and support for both positive- and negative-supply monitoring without external components on SEL.
Technical Context
The LTC2910IGN#TRPBF integrates eight independent voltage comparators referenced to a precision 0.5V internal threshold, each with input leakage ≤±30nA and propagation delay of 50–500μs. Its three-state SEL pin configures V7/V8 polarity (positive/positive, positive/negative, or negative/negative), enabling flexible rail monitoring without external resistors for polarity selection.
It includes a shunt-regulated VCC input (6.2–7.0V max), a programmable reset timeout (6–14ms with 1nF), and UVLO activation at 1.9–2.1V with 5–50mV hysteresis. The buffered 1V REF output sources/sinks ±1mA and drives up to 1nF capacitive load, supporting accurate negative-rail sensing via resistor divider networks.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Input Count | 8 independent voltage monitor inputs (V1–V8) |
| Threshold Accuracy | ±1.5% over –40°C to +85°C - ensures reliable trip point across industrial temperature range |
| Quiescent Current | 50μA typical - enables low-power system supervision without significant standby drain |
| RST/RST Output Type | Open-drain with internal weak pull-up to VCC - supports wired-OR reset buses and level-shifting |
| Reset Timeout Range | 6–14ms (with 1nF TMR capacitor) - provides configurable reset pulse width for processor boot stabilization |
| VCC Operating Range | 2.3V to 6V direct supply; >6V requires external current-limiting resistor - simplifies design for 3.3V/5V systems |
| REF Output Voltage | 0.985–1.020V over full temperature range - stable reference for negative-rail divider biasing |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead GN16 plastic SSOP (narrow, 0.150-inch width), RoHS-compliant, lead-free (#PBF).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V1–V6 (Pins 1–6) | Positive-voltage monitor inputs | Assert reset when input falls below 0.5V; tied to VCC if unused |
| V7, V8 (Pins 7–8) | Polarity-configurable monitor inputs | Behavior set by SEL: positive (UV when <0.5V) or negative (UV when >0.5V) |
| VCC (Pin 16) | Supply input / shunt regulator | Operates as direct supply ≤6V; acts as 6.2–7.0V shunt above 6V with external series resistor |
| RST, RST (Pins 11–12) | Complementary open-drain reset outputs | RST low = fault active; RST high = fault active; both asserted during UVLO (VCC <2.1V) |
| REF (Pin 10) | Buffered 1V reference output | Sources/sinks ±1mA; drives negative-monitoring dividers; unstable beyond 1nF load |
| SEL (Pin 14) | Three-state polarity select | GND = both V7/V8 negative; open = V7 positive/V8 negative; VCC = both positive |
| DIS (Pin 13) | Reset disable input | Pull high to inhibit RST/RST assertion except during VCC UVLO; internal 2μA pull-down |
| TMR (Pin 15) | Reset timeout capacitor connection | CTMR = 1nF → 8.5ms timeout; tie to VCC to bypass timer |
Key Features

| Industrial PLC Controller | Network Switch ASIC Power Management |
|
Use Scenario: Ensuring clean startup of 24V backplane, 5V logic, 3.3V PHY, and isolated –5V analog sensor bias in an IP67-rated PLC module. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC2910IGN#TRPBF uses DIS pin to gate reset during firmware-controlled safe shutdown, while maintaining UVLO response to catastrophic VCC collapse. Use Value: Enables deterministic fail-safe behavior: hardware reset on supply fault, software-gated reset on controlled stop - no race conditions. |
Use Scenario: Validating 48V-to-12V intermediate bus, 12V switch ASIC core, 3.3V SerDes, and –3.3V clock buffer supplies in a 10G Ethernet switch line card. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC2910IGN#TRPBF monitors all rails with CTMR=22nF to extend timeout to 200ms, accommodating slow-ramping intermediate bus converters. Use Value: Guarantees ASIC remains held in reset until all supplies settle - prevents metastability and latch-up during multi-stage power-up. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC2914IMS#TRPBF | Quad UV/OV monitor with two negative inputs; includes OV detection capability not present in LTC2910IGN#TRPBF | Required where overvoltage protection (e.g., 5V rail >5.5V) is mandated alongside undervoltage | Select LTC2914IMS#TRPBF only if OV monitoring is required; otherwise LTC2910IGN#TRPBF offers lower cost and simpler configuration for UV-only use cases |
| LTC2908IDDB#TRPBF | Six-supply monitor (four fixed, two adjustable); smaller 8-pin DDB package; no negative monitoring or SEL pin | Suitable for space-constrained designs with ≤6 rails and no negative supplies | Choose LTC2908IDDB#TRPBF for compact, low-pin-count UV monitoring; LTC2910IGN#TRPBF preferred when octal count, negative rail support, or SSOP footprint is needed |
Compared with LTC2914IMS#TRPBF and LTC2908IDDB#TRPBF, the LTC2910IGN#TRPBF uniquely balances octal channel count, integrated negative monitoring, and industrial temperature rating in a standard SSOP package-making it optimal for multi-rail server, telecom, and industrial control applications where UV-only supervision suffices.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the LTC2910IGN#TRPBF?
The LTC2910IGN#TRPBF is rated for –40°C to +85°C ambient operation, as indicated by the "I" grade in its part number. This industrial temperature range ensures reliable performance in server chassis, network equipment, and factory automation environments where thermal margins are constrained.
Does the LTC2910IGN#TRPBF support monitoring of negative supply voltages?
Yes, the LTC2910IGN#TRPBF supports negative supply monitoring on V7 and V8 inputs using its three-state SEL pin. When SEL is left open, V7 operates as a positive monitor (<0.5V triggers reset) and V8 as a negative monitor (>0.5V triggers reset), enabled by the internal buffered 1V REF output used as a bias reference in the external resistor divider.
What is the minimum VCC voltage required for valid RST/RST output assertion in the LTC2910IGN#TRPBF?
The LTC2910IGN#TRPBF guarantees RST low and RST high assertion down to VCC = 1V. Below 2.0V, the device enters undervoltage lockout (UVLO) mode, forcing immediate reset assertion independent of input voltages - a critical feature for robust brown-out detection during power-down sequences.
How is the reset timeout period configured on the LTC2910IGN#TRPBF?
The reset timeout period of the LTC2910IGN#TRPBF is set by connecting an external capacitor (CTMR) between the TMR pin (Pin 15) and GND. With CTMR = 1nF, the timeout is 8.5ms; scaling follows tRST ≈ 9ms/nF. Tying TMR to VCC disables the timeout, causing instantaneous reset deassertion once all inputs recover.
Can the LTC2910IGN#TRPBF be used with supply voltages higher than 6V?
Yes - the LTC2910IGN#TRPBF includes an internal 6.2–7.0V shunt regulator on the VCC pin. For supplies >6V, a series current-limiting resistor must be added to restrict ICC to ≤10mA. The resistor value is selected based on the difference between supply voltage and the shunt voltage, ensuring compliance with absolute maximum ratings.
