Product details
Overview
LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a single-channel UV/OV voltage monitor IC in an 8-lead (3mm × 2mm) DFN package, operating from 2.3V to 6V supply with ±1.5% threshold accuracy, 29µA quiescent current, and noninverting open-drain OV output - used for reliable power-good assertion in 3.3V ±10% systems.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF pinout, LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF application, or LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its latch-controlled noninverting OV output, adjustable timeout via TMR capacitor, guaranteed operation down to VCC = 1V, and compatibility with high-voltage supplies via internal 6.2V shunt regulator.
Technical Context
The LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF implements dual comparator-based monitoring: VH input triggers undervoltage when below 0.5V, VL input triggers overvoltage when above 0.5V. Both inputs feature integrated low-pass filtering for glitch immunity without added hysteresis error.
Its TMR pin sets UV/OV timeout duration (e.g., 8.5ms with 1nF), and LATCH pin enables OV latching behavior - pulled low for latched high OV output, pulled high to bypass latch and enable timed pulse mode. The device guarantees valid outputs at VCC ≥ 1V and supports operation up to 48V via external series resistor into the VCC shunt regulator.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | 2.3V to 6V direct; up to 48V with series resistor into 6.2V internal shunt regulator |
| Threshold Accuracy | ±1.5% over full temperature range - ensures precise 3.3V ±10% trip points without calibration |
| Quiescent Current | 29µA typical - enables always-on monitoring in battery-backed or low-power systems |
| UV/OV Timeout | Adjustable from ~6ms to >10s via external TMR capacitor (9ms/nF scaling) |
| Output Type | Open-drain UV (active-low) and noninverting OV (active-high with weak pull-up to VCC) |
| Operating Temp | 0°C to 70°C (C-grade) - validated for commercial desktop, server, and industrial control environments |
| Reset Propagation Delay | 50µs to 500µs - fast response to supply transients while rejecting sub-50µs noise spikes |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead (3mm × 2mm) plastic DFN with exposed pad (Pin 9), RoHS-compliant, moisture-sensitive level 1. Thermal resistance θJA = 55°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC (Pin 8) | Supply Input / Shunt Regulator Anode | Accepts 2.3–6V directly; for >6V, functions as 6.2V shunt node requiring current-limiting resistor |
| VH (Pin 7) | Undervoltage Sense Input | Asserts UV when voltage falls below 0.5V; tied to high-side divider tap for positive rail monitoring |
| VL (Pin 6) | Overvoltage Sense Input | Asserts OV when voltage rises above 0.5V; tied to low-side divider tap for positive rail monitoring |
| TMR (Pin 5) | Timeout Timing Control | Connects to GND via capacitor (e.g., 22nF → 200ms timeout); tie to VCC to disable timeout |
| LATCH (Pin 1) | OV Latch Enable/Bypass | Pulled low → OV latches high on overvoltage; pulled high → OV behaves as timed pulse like UV |
| UV (Pin 2) | Undervoltage Output | Open-drain active-low output; weak internal pull-up to VCC; sinks 2.5mA at VOL ≤ 0.3V |
| OV (Pin 3) | Overvoltage Output | Noninverting open-drain active-high output; weak internal pull-up to VCC; sources <1µA at VOH ≥ 1V |
| GND (Pin 4) | Ground Reference | Primary return path; exposed pad (Pin 9) must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and electrical integrity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Noninverting OV Output | Eliminates need for external inverter in power-good signaling; simplifies interface to microcontroller GPIO or LED drivers |
| Glitch-Immune Inputs | Integrated comparator output filtering rejects transients <50µs - avoids false resets without adding hysteresis-induced trip error |
| Low-VCC Operation Guarantee | Valid UV/OV assertion down to VCC = 1V - ensures robust reset behavior during brown-out and power-up sequencing |
| Adjustable Timeout Disable | TMR pin strapped to VCC disables timeout entirely - enables immediate fault response for safety-critical applications |
| High-Voltage Supply Compatibility | Internal 6.2V shunt regulator allows direct connection to 12V/24V/48V rails with only one series resistor - reduces BOM count |
Applications
| Desktop & Notebook Power Monitoring | Network Server Core Voltage Supervision |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC2912CDDB-1#TRPBF | Latching OV output is active-low (inverting), not active-high; identical pinout, timing, and accuracy | Requires external inverter or inverted logic interpretation for power-good signaling | Select when legacy design uses active-low PWRGOOD or when interfacing with older ASICs expecting inverted OV |
| LTC2913IDDB#TRPBF | Dual independent UV/OV channels, wider –40°C to 85°C grade, 10-lead DFN package | Monitors two rails simultaneously (e.g., 3.3V + 1.8V); higher pin count and cost; no LATCH pin | Choose for multi-rail systems where space permits and extended temperature range is required - not drop-in compatible |

FAQ
What is the function of the LATCH pin on the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF?
The LATCH pin on the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF controls the behavior of the OV output: when pulled low, OV latches high upon overvoltage detection and remains asserted until LATCH is raised high; when pulled high, OV acts as a timed pulse matching UV's timeout behavior. This dual-mode flexibility enables both latched fault reporting and transient-aware monitoring in the same design using the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF.
Can the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF monitor a 48V supply directly?
Yes - the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF can monitor a 48V supply by connecting it to the VCC pin through an external current-limiting resistor. Its internal 6.2V shunt regulator clamps VCC, allowing safe operation as long as the resistor limits current to ≤10mA. The datasheet provides calculation guidance for selecting RZ based on worst-case 48V variation, ensuring reliable LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF functionality without external regulators.
What is the minimum capacitor value required on the TMR pin of the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF?
The TMR pin of the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF requires a minimum 10pF capacitor to ground to ensure stable timeout operation. Values below this may cause erratic or shortened reset pulses. For example, a 1nF capacitor yields an 8.5ms timeout (9ms/nF scaling), while 22nF gives ~200ms - all values must be ceramic with low leakage (<1.3µA) to maintain accuracy across temperature and time, as specified for the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF.
How does the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF handle power-up sequencing when VCC rises from 0V?
During power-up, the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF asserts UV low and OV high as soon as VCC reaches 1V, providing early fault indication. Once VCC exceeds 2.1V, the VH and VL comparators become active. An internal timer starts after valid input detection, and UV transitions high after the programmed timeout - ensuring clean, glitch-free power-good signaling. This behavior is guaranteed across the full 0°C to 70°C range for the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF.
Is the exposed pad (Pin 9) on the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF electrically connected?
Yes - the exposed pad (Pin 9) on the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF is internally connected to GND and must be soldered to the PCB ground plane. It is not optional: doing so ensures proper thermal dissipation (θJA = 55°C/W) and electrical stability. Leaving it unconnected degrades thermal performance and may cause erratic operation, especially under sustained load. The datasheet explicitly states "EXPOSED PAD (PIN 9) IS GND, MUST BE SOLDERED TO PCB" for the LTC2912CDDB-3#TRPBF.
