Product details
Overview
LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a precision voltage supervisor IC with manual reset input, 9 selectable supply thresholds (12V to 0.5V ADJ), fixed –5% tolerance, and integrated watchdog timer. It operates from 1.5V to 5.5V supply, consumes 30μA quiescent current, guarantees ±1.5% threshold accuracy over –40°C to 85°C, and delivers reliable reset assertion down to VCC ≥ 0.8V - used in automotive control modules requiring fail-safe power monitoring.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF datasheet, LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF pinout, LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF application, or LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its DFN-10 (3mm × 2mm) package, MR pin for push-button reset, windowed watchdog capability (A1 version supports standard watchdog only), internal 200ms reset timeout, and guaranteed operation up to 85°C ambient.
Technical Context
The LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF implements a dual-timer architecture: an adjustable reset timeout controlled via RT pin capacitance (or fixed 200ms when RT = VCC), and a watchdog timer with upper-bound timeout (1.6s internal, adjustable externally) - but lacks lower-bound windowing (B1 variant only). Its VM comparator uses a precision bandgap reference and glitch-filtered input path, ensuring immunity to transients <100μs at 5% threshold deviation.
Circuit-level integration includes an internal 100kΩ pull-up on MR, open-drain RST output with VOL ≤ 0.2V at 100μA, and VCC shunt regulation at 6.2V for high-voltage supply compatibility. SEL1/SEL2 three-state inputs configure nominal threshold without external resistors; tolerance is fixed at –5%, eliminating TOL pin usage versus LTC2917.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | 1.5V to 5.5V - supports direct connection to logic rails; shunt regulation enables use with 12V supplies via series resistor |
| Threshold Accuracy | ±1.5% over –40°C to 85°C - ensures no nuisance resets within system supply tolerance bands |
| Quiescent Current | 30μA typical - enables battery-backed or low-power always-on monitoring |
| Reset Timeout | 200ms internal (RT = VCC) - provides sufficient hold time for microcontroller initialization sequences |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s internal (WT = VCC) - matches typical firmware loop execution windows in automotive ECUs |
| VCC Undervoltage Lockout | 1.5V max - guarantees valid operation before RST release during power-up |
| RST Output Type | Open-drain - allows wired-OR of multiple supervisors and interface with 3.3V/5V logic domains |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-Lead (3mm × 2mm) Plastic DFN with exposed pad (pin 11, optional GND connection).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal circuits; exposed pad enhances thermal performance |
| MR | Manual Reset Input | Active-low input with internal 100kΩ pull-up - directly interfaces with momentary pushbutton without external components |
| SEL2 / SEL1 | Threshold Selection Inputs | Three-state (VCC/GND/open) pins selecting one of nine nominal VM thresholds (e.g., 1.8V, 3.3V, ADJ) |
| VM | Monitor Input | High-impedance comparator input - monitors supply voltage against selected threshold; ADJ mode accepts 0.5V reference |
| RST | Reset Output | Open-drain output asserting low during fault or reset timeout - requires external pull-up to logic rail |
| RT | Reset Timeout Control | Capacitor-adjustable timer input - 200ms timeout when tied to VCC; 400μs when open |
| WT | Watchdog Timeout Control | Capacitor-adjustable watchdog upper bound - 1.6s timeout when tied to VCC; 3.2ms when open |
| WDI | Watchdog Input | Edge-triggered input - falling edge required to clear watchdog timer (A1 version: no lower-bound windowing) |
| VCC | Power Supply Input | Input with internal 6.2V shunt regulator - enables operation from 12V automotive systems with series current-limiting resistor |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 9-Select Threshold Architecture | Eliminates external resistor networks - reduces BOM count and layout area for multi-rail systems |
| Integrated Manual Reset (MR) | Enables field-serviceable system recovery without firmware intervention or external logic |
| Glitch-Filtered VM Input | Rejects transients <100μs at 5% threshold deviation - prevents false resets during load switching |
| Guaranteed RST Assertion Down to VCC = 0.8V | Ensures clean power-on reset sequencing even during brownout conditions |
| DFN-10 (3mm × 2mm) Package | Reduces PCB footprint by >40% vs MSOP-10 - critical for space-constrained automotive modules |
Applications
| Automotive Engine Control Unit (ECU) | Industrial PLC I/O Module |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Monitors 5V microcontroller supply and 12V sensor bus in under-hood ECU exposed to –40°C to 125°C ambient. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage supervisor with manual reset and watchdog - asserts RST if 5V rail drops below 4.75V (–5%) or WDI fails to toggle within 1.6s.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6326UT29D3+T | Fixed 2.93V threshold; no manual reset; 1.6μA quiescent current; SOT23-3 package | Single-threshold, ultra-low-power monitoring only - no programmability or watchdog | Select when cost and size are critical and only one rail requires supervision |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Fixed 3.3V threshold; adjustable watchdog (0.5s–100s); 16μA quiescent current; SOT23-6 package | Lacks manual reset and multi-threshold selection - requires external resistor for timeout adjustment | Choose for longer watchdog flexibility in non-automotive industrial designs |
Compared with MAX6326UT29D3+T and TPS3808G33DBVR, the LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF uniquely combines 9-programmable thresholds, integrated MR, and DFN-10 packaging - making it optimal for multi-rail automotive systems where layout density and field serviceability are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF?
The LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF is specified for the commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. This is confirmed by its part marking "C" grade (LTC2918C) and order information table listing "0°C to 70°C" for all CDDB-A1 variants. It does not support industrial (–40°C to 85°C) or high-temp (–40°C to 125°C) grades.
Does the LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF support windowed watchdog functionality?
No, the LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF does not support windowed watchdog functionality. The "A1" suffix denotes the standard watchdog variant (LTC2918-A), which requires only that WDI be toggled before the upper timeout boundary (e.g., 1.6s). Windowed watchdog - requiring both upper and lower timing boundaries - is exclusive to "B1" versions like LTC2918CDDB-B1#TRMPBF.
How is the reset timeout configured on the LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF?
The reset timeout on the LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF is configured via the RT pin: tying RT to VCC selects the internal 200ms timeout, leaving RT open yields ~400μs, and connecting an external capacitor (CRT) to GND sets tRST ≈ 9ms/nF. The datasheet confirms this behavior in the Pin Functions section and Typical Application TA01, where RT = VCC produces tRST = 200ms.
What is the function of the MR pin on the LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF?
The MR (Manual Reset) pin on the LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF is an active-low input with an internal 100kΩ pull-up to VCC. Asserting MR low while RST is high initiates a full reset cycle - pulling RST low for the configured timeout period. This enables hardware-based system recovery without firmware involvement, as documented in the Pin Functions and Applications Information sections.
Can the LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF monitor a 12V supply directly?
Yes, the LTC2918CDDB-A1#TRMPBF can monitor a 12V supply directly using its internal 6.2V shunt regulator on the VCC pin. A series current-limiting resistor (e.g., 11kΩ for 12V) must be placed between the 12V source and VCC to limit input current to ≤5mA, as specified in Absolute Maximum Ratings and Applications Information Figure F03.
