Product details
Overview
LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a precision triple supply monitor IC with integrated power-fail comparator and latched reset control. It monitors V1 (3.3V), V2 (adjustable), and ADJ (0.5V threshold) inputs with ±1.5% threshold accuracy over –40°C to 85°C, supports internal 200ms or external capacitor–programmable reset timeout, and delivers ultralow-voltage operation down to VCC = 0.5V - used in industrial embedded systems for reliable power sequencing and controlled shutdown.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF pinout, LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF application, or LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its adjustable dual-supply monitoring capability (V2 and ADJ both configurable), PFI-based early-warning power-fail signaling, TMR latch functionality for margin testing, and TSOT-23-8 package compatibility with space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF implements three independent voltage comparators: one fixed 3.3V monitor on V1, one high-impedance adjustable input on V2 (nominal 0.5V threshold), and one on ADJ (also 0.5V threshold). Its internal VCC is derived solely from V1 - unlike other variants that select between V1/V2 - enabling stable operation even when V2 is floating or configured via resistive divider.
It integrates a dedicated power-fail comparator with 500mV falling-edge threshold and 15mV hysteresis on PFI, driving open-drain PFO for early warning; RST is open-drain with weak internal pull-up to V1 and supports latching via TMR pin pulled to GND. Reset assertion requires all monitored inputs to remain below threshold for ≥8µs propagation delay before timeout initiation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| V1 Threshold | 3.086V (–6.5% of 3.3V), guaranteed ±1.5% over –40°C to 85°C - ensures precise undervoltage detection without external calibration |
| V2 / ADJ Threshold | 500mV nominal, ±7.5mV max deviation - enables accurate resistive-divider configuration for custom supply rails |
| Reset Timeout | Internally fixed 200ms (TMR = V1) or externally programmable (CTMR = 2.2nF → 20ms) - eliminates need for external RC timing components in most designs |
| Supply Current | 30µA typical at TA = 25°C - supports battery-backed or low-power always-on monitoring applications |
| PFO Propagation Delay | 8–80µs (over full temp range) - provides fast response to input voltage collapse for timely system shutdown |
| Minimum Operating Voltage | 0.5V guaranteed for RST/PFO output drive - prevents indeterminate logic states during brownout or power-up ramping |
| Input Hysteresis | 15mV on PFI, 100mV on TMR latch mode - rejects noise-induced false triggering in electrically noisy environments |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-Lead TSOT-23 (TS8), 3mm × 1.75mm footprint, exposed pad optional, rated for –40°C to 85°C industrial operation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| PFI | Power-fail input | Monitors external supply via resistive divider; asserts PFO low when voltage falls below 500mV - enables early warning of primary rail collapse |
| ADJ | Adjustable monitor input | High-impedance 0.5V comparator input; accepts resistive-divider-configured trip point for third supply rail |
| TMR | Reset timeout/latch control | Configures reset timeout (capacitor-to-GND) or enables RST latching (pulled to GND); internal 200ms mode when tied to V1 |
| GND | Device ground reference | Common return path for all analog comparators and digital outputs; must be low-impedance for accurate threshold sensing |
| V2 | Adjustable supply monitor input | High-Z 0.5V threshold input (LTC2911-5 variant); functions identically to ADJ - supports dual adjustable rail monitoring |
| V1 | 3.3V supply monitor & power source | Fixed 3.3V (–6.5%) monitor input; supplies internal VCC and drives internal pull-ups on RST/PFO |
| PFO | Open-drain power-fail output | Asserts low on PFI threshold breach; weak internal pull-up to V1 - requires external pull-up for >V1 logic levels or faster rise times |
| RST | Open-drain reset output | Asserts low if any monitored input falls below threshold; latched state persists until TMR release - critical for margin testing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple independent voltage monitoring | Simultaneous supervision of 3.3V (V1), adjustable (V2), and adjustable (ADJ) rails - eliminates need for multiple discrete supervisors |
| ±1.5% threshold accuracy over temperature | Reduces required system voltage margin by >2% vs. ±3% parts - improves design headroom for tight-tolerance supplies |
| Programmable reset timeout | Internal 200ms default or external capacitor option (9.4ms/nF) - simplifies BOM and layout while supporting diverse timing requirements |
| Power-fail comparator with hysteresis | 500mV/515mV thresholds + 15mV hysteresis on PFI - prevents chatter during slow-falling supply transitions |
| Reset latch via TMR pin | Pulling TMR to GND freezes RST state indefinitely - enables safe voltage margining without unintended system resets |

FAQ
What is the exact function of the V2 pin on the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF?
The V2 pin on the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF is a high-impedance adjustable voltage monitor input with a nominal 0.5V threshold, identical in function to the ADJ pin. Unlike earlier LTC2911 variants (e.g., -1 through -4), the -5 version repurposes V2 as a second configurable monitor - enabling simultaneous supervision of two custom rails via resistive dividers. This allows the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF to monitor three rails: fixed 3.3V (V1), adjustable (V2), and adjustable (ADJ).
Does the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF support internal reset timeout without external components?
Yes, the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF supports an internally generated 200ms reset timeout period. This is enabled by connecting the TMR pin directly to V1. No external capacitor is required in this configuration, simplifying design and reducing BOM count. The internal timeout is specified from 140ms to 280ms over temperature, with typical value at 200ms - making it suitable for general-purpose power-on reset timing without precision timing requirements.
How does the PFI input on the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF differ from the ADJ input?
The PFI input on the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF has a dedicated 500mV falling-edge threshold with 15mV hysteresis and is optimized for early-warning power-fail detection, whereas the ADJ input has a 0.5V threshold with no hysteresis and is intended for general-purpose supply monitoring. PFI drives the PFO output independently, allowing asynchronous warning before RST assertion. Both accept resistive dividers, but PFI's hysteresis and propagation delay (8–80µs) are tuned for rapid response to primary supply collapse - a key distinction in system-level fault handling.
Can the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF operate with VCC below 1V?
Yes, the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF guarantees functional RST and PFO output drive down to VCC = 0.5V, as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Its proprietary low-voltage output circuitry maintains valid logic-low states even during deep brownout conditions. This capability ensures deterministic reset behavior during uncontrolled power-down sequences - a critical requirement for data retention and safe shutdown in battery-powered or energy-harvesting systems using the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF.
What is the purpose of the TMR pin latch feature on the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF?
The TMR pin latch feature on the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF allows the RST output state to be frozen indefinitely by pulling TMR to GND. This prevents spurious resets during voltage margin testing, where supply rails are intentionally lowered to verify system robustness. Once latched, RST remains in its current state (high or low) regardless of input voltage changes until TMR is released. This enables repeatable, controlled validation of reset timing margins without requiring external logic or microcontroller intervention - a key advantage for production test and qualification of systems using the LTC2911CTS8-5#TRPBF.
