Product details
Overview
LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-temperature voltage supervisor IC with 9 selectable nominal thresholds (12V to ADJ), ±1.5% threshold accuracy over –40°C to 125°C, adjustable reset and watchdog timers, and glitch-immune open-drain RST output - designed for automotive control systems requiring reliable power-up/power-down sequencing and system-level fault detection.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF datasheet, LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF pinout, LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF application, or LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, exact pin functions, real-world timing values (e.g., 200ms internal reset timeout, 1.6s internal watchdog upper bound), thermal-grade package validation (MSOP-10, –40°C to 125°C), and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional differences.
Technical Context
The LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF implements a dual-stage supervision architecture: a precision comparator monitors VM against one of nine internally trimmed thresholds selected via SEL1/SEL2, while TOL configures tolerance (–5%/–10%/–15%). Its reset logic includes guaranteed RST assertion down to VCC ≥ 0.8V and glitch immunity with tUV ≤ 150μs.
This A1 variant uses fixed internal timers - 200ms reset timeout (RT = VCC) and 1.6s watchdog upper boundary (WT = VCC) - without external capacitors. It lacks manual reset (MR) and windowed watchdog (B1 feature), distinguishing it from LTC2918 and B1 versions. Operation up to 125°C and ±1.5% threshold accuracy across temperature confirm its suitability for under-hood automotive use.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | 1.5V to 5.5V operating; 6.2V shunt regulator enables operation from higher supplies (e.g., 12V automotive battery) with series resistor |
| Threshold Accuracy | ±1.5% over full –40°C to 125°C range - ensures no nuisance resets within supply tolerance bands (e.g., 5V ±10% monitored at 4.425V ±75mV) |
| Reset Timeout | 200ms internal (RT tied to VCC) - provides stable deassertion delay after VM recovery, eliminating false releases during supply transients |
| Watchdog Upper Bound | 1.6s internal (WT tied to VCC) - defines maximum allowed WDI toggle period before RST assertion in standard watchdog mode (A1 version) |
| Quiescent Current | 30μA typical - enables long-term battery-backed monitoring in always-on automotive subsystems without significant drain |
| VM Input Impedance | 0.5–8MΩ depending on SEL configuration - supports direct connection to low-leakage voltage rails or high-impedance resistive dividers for ADJ mode |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C (H-grade) - qualified for engine control units, transmission modules, and other under-hood applications |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-Lead MSOP (3mm × 3mm), exposed pad optional, rated for TJMAX = 125°C, θJA = 200°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal circuits and RST pull-down; must be low-impedance connection |
| TOL | Tolerance select input (three-state) | Configures VM threshold tolerance: VCC = –5%, open = –10%, GND = –15%; determines trip point hysteresis band |
| SEL2 | Nominal voltage select input (three-state) | Together with SEL1, selects one of nine thresholds (e.g., SEL2=GND, SEL1=VCC → 3.3V nominal) |
| SEL1 | Nominal voltage select input (three-state) | Three-state control (VCC/GND/open) defining 9 preset thresholds including ADJ (0.5V); no external resistors required |
| VM | Voltage monitor input | High-impedance comparator input; monitors external supply or resistive divider; triggers RST when below programmed threshold |
| RST | Open-drain reset output | Asserts low during undervoltage or watchdog timeout; requires external pull-up; supports wired-OR with other supervisors |
| RT | Reset timeout control | Tie to VCC for 200ms internal timeout; leave open for ~400μs; connect capacitor to GND for adjustable timeout (9ms/nF) |
| WT | Watchdog timer control | Tie to VCC for 1.6s internal watchdog upper bound; open for ~3.2ms; GND disables watchdog; no lower-bound window (A1 only) |
| WDI | Watchdog input | Falling-edge sensitive (A1); must toggle within 1.6s to prevent RST assertion; no response to rising edges |
| VCC | Power supply input | Accepts 1.5–5.5V directly; includes 6.2V shunt regulator for >5.7V operation (requires current-limiting resistor) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 27 selectable combinations | 9 nominal voltages × 3 tolerances (–5%/–10%/–15%) - eliminates need for external resistor networks in production designs |
| Glitch-immune supervision | tUV ≤ 150μs minimum pulse width required to trigger RST - prevents false resets from load transients or EMI near threshold |
| Guaranteed operation at low VCC | RST asserted for VCC ≥ 0.8V - ensures valid reset generation even during brown-out conditions before core logic powers up |
| Internal shunt regulator | 6.2V regulation on VCC pin - enables direct 12V automotive battery interface with single series resistor (no LDO needed) |
| High-temperature qualification | Tested and specified over –40°C to +125°C - meets AEC-Q100 stress requirements for engine compartment deployment |
Applications
| Automotive Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Industrial PLC Power Sequencing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC2917HMS-B1#PBF | Includes windowed watchdog (tWDL = 50ms) and same H-grade temp range; identical pinout and threshold selection | Required where system safety mandates detection of both too-slow and too-fast WDI toggling (e.g., ISO 26262 ASIL-B) | Select B1 for high-reliability automotive or industrial systems needing dual-boundary watchdog enforcement |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Fixed 3.3V threshold, no selectable voltages; 1.8–6.0V supply; 35μA IQ; 200ms fixed reset timeout; SOT-23-6 | Suitable only for single-rail 3.3V monitoring; lacks multi-threshold flexibility and ADJ mode | Choose TPS3808G33DBVR for cost-sensitive, space-constrained 3.3V-only applications where programmability is unnecessary |
Compared with LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF, the B1 variant adds critical windowed watchdog capability for functional safety compliance, while the TPS3808G33DBVR trades configurability for smaller footprint and lower unit cost in fixed-threshold deployments.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed operating temperature range for the LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF?
The LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF is rated for –40°C to +125°C (H-grade), with full electrical specifications guaranteed across this range. This includes ±1.5% threshold accuracy, 30μA quiescent current, and functional reset/watchdog behavior - making it suitable for under-hood automotive and industrial edge applications where ambient temperatures exceed 105°C.
Does the LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF support manual reset functionality?
No, the LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF does not include a manual reset (MR) input. That function is exclusive to the LTC2918 variants. The LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF relies solely on VM monitoring, watchdog timeout, and power-on reset for reset generation. If push-button reset is required, the LTC2918HMS-A1#PBF is the direct functional counterpart.
How is the watchdog timer configured on the LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF?
The LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF uses the A1 configuration, which implements a standard (non-windowed) watchdog. The upper timeout boundary is fixed at 1.6s when WT is tied to VCC. WDI responds only to falling edges, and failure to toggle within 1.6s asserts RST for the programmed reset timeout (200ms when RT = VCC). No lower boundary enforcement is present - that requires the B1 version.
Can the LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF monitor a 12V supply directly?
Yes, the LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF can monitor a 12V supply using its internal 6.2V shunt regulator on the VCC pin. A series current-limiting resistor (e.g., 11kΩ for 12V) is required between the 12V source and VCC to keep input current ≤5mA. VM is then connected to the 12V rail (SEL1=VCC, SEL2=VCC selects 12V nominal threshold), enabling full supervision without external regulators.
What is the reset timeout behavior during power-up for the LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF?
During power-up, the LTC2917HMS-A1#PBF asserts RST low as soon as VCC reaches 0.8V and holds it until VCC exceeds 1.5V (UVLO threshold). Once VCC is stable above 1.5V and VM is above the selected threshold, the internal 200ms reset timer starts. RST releases only after this full timeout completes - ensuring the MCU or FPGA receives a clean, extended reset pulse before initialization begins.
