Product details
Overview
LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a precision voltage supervisor IC with 27 selectable reset thresholds, windowed watchdog timer, and manual reset disable-designed for high-reliability power monitoring in automotive and industrial systems. It operates from 1.5V to 5.5V supply, consumes only 30μA quiescent current, guarantees ±1.5% threshold accuracy over –40°C to +85°C, and supports internal 200ms reset timeout and 1.6s/50ms windowed watchdog boundaries.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF datasheet, LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF pinout, LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF application, or LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF equivalent, this page delivers verified functional identity, exact MSOP-10 pin mapping, confirmed B1-series windowed watchdog behavior, tolerance-selectable threshold architecture, and real-world timing parameters validated across temperature and supply conditions.
Technical Context
The LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF implements a dual-stage supervision architecture: a precision comparator monitors VM against one of nine nominal voltages (12V–0.5V ADJ) selected via SEL1/SEL2, with tolerance (–5%/–10%/–15%) set by TOL pin; its output triggers an adjustable reset timeout (internal 200ms or external capacitor). The B1 variant adds windowed watchdog logic that requires falling edges on WDI to occur strictly between tWDL = 50ms and tWDU = 1.6s-rejecting both too-fast and too-slow toggles.
It integrates a 6.2V shunt regulator on VCC for operation up to 12V supplies (with series resistor), guarantees RST assertion down to VCC ≥ 0.8V, and features glitch immunity with 10μs–150μs input rejection depending on magnitude-enabling robust operation in noisy automotive environments where supply transients are common.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | 1.5V to 5.5V direct operation; up to 12V with external series resistor and internal 6.2V shunt regulation |
| Reset Threshold Accuracy | ±1.5% over full temperature range (–40°C to +85°C), ensuring reliable trip point margining against supply tolerances |
| Quiescent Current | 30μA typical - enables always-on monitoring in battery-backed or low-power embedded systems |
| Internal Reset Timeout | 200ms (RT tied to VCC) - provides sufficient hold time for microcontroller initialization without external components |
| Windowed Watchdog Bounds | tWDL = 50ms / tWDU = 1.6s (B1 version) - enforces strict timing window to detect stalled or runaway firmware |
| VM Input Impedance | 0.5–8MΩ depending on SEL configuration - minimizes loading on monitored rail while supporting high-impedance divider designs |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +85°C (I-grade) - qualified for under-hood automotive control modules and industrial PLCs |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-Lead MSOP (3mm × 3mm), RoHS-compliant, exposed pad optional (not electrically connected in MSOP).
| 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% - enables precise margin testing |
| SEL2 | Nominal voltage select input (three-state) | Together with SEL1, selects one of nine VM thresholds (e.g., SEL2=GND/SEL1=VCC → 3.3V); open/GND/VCC states define discrete settings |
| SEL1 | Nominal voltage select input (three-state) | Paired with SEL2 to encode 9 threshold options; no external resistors required - simplifies BOM and layout |
| VM | Monitored voltage input | High-impedance comparator input; accepts direct connection to supply rail or adjustable divider (ADJ mode = 0.5V reference) |
| RST | Open-drain reset output | Asserts low during undervoltage or watchdog fault; 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; add capacitor for 9ms/nF adjustable timing |
| WT | Watchdog timeout control | Tie to VCC for 1.6s internal upper bound (B1); add capacitor for 72ms/nF adjustment; tie to GND to disable |
| WDI | Watchdog input | Falling-edge sensitive (B1 only); must toggle within 50ms–1.6s window to prevent reset - detects software hangs |
| VCC | Power supply input | Accepts 1.5V–5.5V directly; >5.7V requires series resistor due to integrated 6.2V shunt regulator |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 27 Selectable Thresholds | 9 nominal voltages × 3 tolerances (–5%/–10%/–15%) - eliminates need for external resistor networks and enables single-part support across multiple rail voltages |
| Windowed Watchdog (B1) | Enforces both minimum (50ms) and maximum (1.6s) watchdog toggle intervals - prevents false resets from noise while detecting frozen firmware |
| Glitch Immunity | Rejects transients <10μs at 5% over-threshold or <150μs at 0.1% over-threshold - ensures stable reset assertion in electrically noisy environments |
| Guaranteed RST at Low VCC | RST asserts reliably down to VCC = 0.8V - supports clean power-up sequencing even during brownout conditions |
| Shunt Regulator Integration | 6.2V internal shunt allows direct 12V battery operation with single series resistor - reduces external component count in automotive applications |
Applications
| Automotive Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Industrial PLC Power Monitoring |

FAQ
What is the key functional difference between LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF and LTC2917IMS-A1#PBF?
The LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF implements a windowed watchdog timer requiring WDI falling edges to occur strictly between 50ms and 1.6s, whereas the A1 version uses a standard single-boundary watchdog (only upper limit enforced). This makes the B1 variant suitable for ASIL-B/C automotive applications where detection of both too-fast and too-slow firmware activity is required. Both share identical threshold selection, reset timing, and package.
Can LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF monitor a 12V supply directly without external components?
No - the LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF has a 5.7V absolute maximum VCC rating. To monitor 12V, connect it through a series current-limiting resistor to leverage the internal 6.2V shunt regulator. For example, with a 12V source, a 11kΩ resistor limits VCC current to ~570μA, keeping dissipation within safe limits while maintaining regulation at 6.2V.
How does the TOL pin affect threshold accuracy in LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF?
The TOL pin selects the tolerance band applied to the nominal threshold (–5%, –10%, or –15%). Threshold accuracy remains ±1.5% of the nominal voltage regardless of TOL setting - e.g., for 5V nominal with TOL = GND (–15%), the actual trip range is 4.175V to 4.250V (5V × 0.85 × 0.985 to 5V × 0.85 × 1.015). This enables precise margin testing against supply specifications.
What is the minimum pulse width required on WDI for reliable watchdog operation in LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF?
The LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF requires a minimum WDI pulse width of 400ns for falling-edge detection. This specification ensures compatibility with standard microcontroller GPIO toggle speeds while rejecting sub-400ns noise spikes. The falling edge must also fall within the 50ms–1.6s window relative to the prior edge to avoid triggering RST.
Does LTC2917IMS-B1#PBF support adjustable reset timeout using an external capacitor?
Yes - connecting a capacitor (CRT) from RT to GND sets the reset timeout per the formula CRT = tRST × 110 pF/ms. For example, a 2.2nF capacitor yields ~20ms timeout. Leaving RT open gives ~400μs; tying RT to VCC selects the internal 200ms timeout. All configurations maintain ±1.5% timing accuracy over temperature.
