Product details
Overview
LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a high-temperature voltage supervisor IC with 9 selectable supply thresholds, fixed –5% tolerance, manual reset input (MR), and windowed watchdog timer. It operates from 1.5V to 5.5V supply, consumes 30μA quiescent current, guarantees ±1.5% threshold accuracy over –40°C to 125°C, and supports automotive control systems requiring robust power-up/power-down sequencing and glitch-immune reset assertion.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF pinout, LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF application, or LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, exact pin functions, real-world timing values (e.g., tRST = 200ms internal, tWDU = 1.6s internal), and validated alternatives for industrial and automotive embedded designs.
Technical Context
The LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF implements a dual-stage supervision architecture: a precision comparator monitors VM against one of nine internally programmed thresholds selected via SEL1/SEL2 (three-state logic), while a windowed watchdog timer enforces strict timing boundaries on WDI falling edges - requiring both upper (tWDU = 1.6s) and lower (tWDL = 50ms) timeout limits to be met. Its RST output is open-drain with guaranteed low-voltage operation down to VCC ≥ 0.8V.
It integrates an internal 6.2V shunt regulator on VCC for direct 12V supply compatibility (with external series resistor), features glitch filtering with <150μs immunity for transients exceeding 5% of threshold, and uses internal reference division to maintain ±1.5% threshold accuracy across full temperature range without external components.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Range | 1.5V to 5.5V - supports direct connection to common logic rails; shunt regulation enables 12V operation with series resistor |
| Threshold Accuracy | ±1.5% over –40°C to 125°C - ensures reliable trip point margining against 5V±10% or 3.3V±5% supplies |
| Quiescent Current | 30μA typical - enables always-on monitoring in battery-backed or low-power automotive modules |
| Reset Timeout (Internal) | 200ms (RT tied to VCC) - provides sufficient hold time for microcontroller initialization and clock stabilization |
| Watchdog Upper Boundary | 1.6s (WT tied to VCC) - matches typical firmware main-loop execution windows in safety-critical ECUs |
| Watchdog Lower Boundary | 50ms (B1 version only) - prevents false resets from spurious noise while enforcing minimum watchdog pulse interval |
| Manual Reset Input | MR active-low with 100kΩ internal pull-up - enables push-button reset without external components |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-lead (3mm × 2mm) plastic DFN with exposed pad (pin 11, optional GND connection). Pin count and layout match MSOP-10 but with smaller footprint and improved thermal performance (θJA = 43°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal circuits; must be low-impedance connection to system ground plane |
| MR | Manual reset input | Active-low signal with internal 100kΩ pull-up; asserts RST for tRST after falling edge - enables hardware-initiated recovery |
| SEL2 | Threshold select bit 1 | Three-state input (VCC/GND/open) selecting nominal VM threshold per Table 1 - determines 1.8V, 3.3V, 5V, etc. monitoring point |
| SEL1 | Threshold select bit 0 | Three-state input (VCC/GND/open) completing 9-threshold selection matrix - no external resistors required |
| VM | Monitor input | High-impedance comparator input (0.5MΩ min); senses supply voltage directly or via external divider for ADJ mode |
| RST | Open-drain reset output | Asserts low during undervoltage or watchdog fault; requires external pull-up; compatible with wired-OR configurations |
| RT | Reset timeout control | Capacitor-adjustable timer input (9ms/nF); tie to VCC for 200ms fixed timeout - sets duration RST remains asserted |
| WT | Watchdog timeout control | Capacitor-adjustable window timer input (72ms/nF); tie to VCC for 1.6s upper bound - defines valid WDI pulse period window |
| WDI | Watchdog input | Falling-edge-sensitive input (B1 version); must toggle within tWDL–tWDU window or trigger reset - enforces software liveness |
| VCC | Power supply input | Operates as direct supply (≤5.5V) or shunt-regulated input (up to 12V with series resistor); internal 6.2V clamp protects circuitry |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Windowed watchdog timer | Enforces both minimum (50ms) and maximum (1.6s) WDI pulse intervals - eliminates false resets from noise while detecting hung firmware |
| 9-pin-selectable thresholds | Eliminates external resistor networks for 12V, 5V, 3.3V, 2.5V, 1.8V, 1.5V, 1.2V, 1.0V, and ADJ (0.5V) monitoring - reduces BOM and layout complexity |
| Guaranteed operation to 125°C | Validated for under-hood automotive applications including engine control units and transmission controllers - no derating required |
| Glitch-immune reset detection | Combines 150μs minimum pulsewidth requirement (tUV) and 200ms timeout to reject load transients and EMI without compromising threshold accuracy |
| Manual reset with integrated pull-up | MR pin includes 100kΩ internal pull-up - enables momentary push-button interface with zero external components |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF?
The LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF is specified for operation from –40°C to 125°C, with full electrical performance guaranteed across this range. This H-grade qualification makes it suitable for under-hood automotive applications, industrial environments with high ambient heat, and equipment requiring extended thermal margin during sterilization or burn-in.
How does the windowed watchdog function differ between LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF and non-B versions?
The LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF implements a true windowed watchdog requiring WDI falling edges to occur strictly between tWDL = 50ms and tWDU = 1.6s - rejecting both too-fast and too-slow toggles. Non-B versions (e.g., A1) only enforce the upper boundary, making the B1 variant essential for high-reliability applications where noise-induced false resets must be eliminated.
Can the LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF monitor a 12V supply directly?
Yes - the LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF includes an internal 6.2V shunt regulator on the VCC pin. To monitor 12V, connect it through a series current-limiting resistor (e.g., 11kΩ for 12V automotive) to keep VCC pin current ≤5mA. SEL1 and SEL2 are then configured to 'VCC/VCC' to select the 12V threshold mode.
What is the purpose of the MR pin on the LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF?
The MR (Manual Reset) pin on the LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF is an active-low input with internal 100kΩ pull-up to VCC. Asserting MR low initiates a full reset cycle identical to power-on reset - holding RST low for the configured timeout (e.g., 200ms). This enables field-service recovery via push-button without modifying firmware or power cycling.
How is threshold accuracy maintained across temperature for the LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF?
The LTC2918HDDB-B1#TRPBF guarantees ±1.5% threshold accuracy over –40°C to 125°C by using a trimmed bandgap reference and matched internal resistor dividers. This specification applies to all nine selectable thresholds (e.g., 3.3V, 5V, 12V) and ensures reliable margining against supply tolerances like 3.3V±5% or 5V±10% without external calibration.
