Product details
Overview
LTC2918HMS-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, 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-grade reliability in 10-lead MSOP package.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF pinout, LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF application, or LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF 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 boundary), and validated alternative options for industrial and automotive power monitoring designs.
Technical Context
The LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF implements a dual-stage supervision architecture: a precision comparator monitors VM against one of nine factory-programmed thresholds selected via SEL1/SEL2 three-state inputs, while a windowed watchdog logic block validates WDI falling-edge timing against both upper (tWDU = 1.6s) and lower (tWDL = 50ms) boundaries. Its RST output is open-drain with guaranteed low-level operation down to VCC = 0.8V.
It integrates an internal 6.2V shunt regulator on VCC for direct 12V operation (with external series resistor), features glitch immunity with 10μs–150μs detect-to-RST latency (tUV), and provides configurable timing via RT (reset timeout) and WT (watchdog timeout) pins - each supporting internal defaults or external capacitor adjustment.
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 across full automotive temperature range without calibration. |
| Reset Timeout (Internal) | 200ms (RT tied to VCC) - provides sufficient hold time for microcontroller initialization before release. |
| Watchdog Upper Boundary | 1.6s (WT tied to VCC) - sets maximum allowable software execution interval before system reset. |
| Watchdog Lower Boundary | 50ms (B1 version only) - prevents premature watchdog clearing due to noise or jitter; requires falling edge within window. |
| Quiescent Current | 30μA typical - enables long-term battery-backed or low-power embedded monitoring. |
| Manual Reset Input | MR pin with 100kΩ internal pull-up - allows direct push-button interface without external components. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 10-Lead Plastic MSOP (3mm × 3mm), rated for –40°C to 125°C operation. Exposed pad optional for thermal enhancement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| GND | Ground reference | Primary return path for all internal circuitry and RST output sink current. |
| MR | Manual reset input | Active-low input with internal 100kΩ pull-up; asserts RST low for tRST when pulled below 0.2×VCC. |
| SEL2 | Threshold selection input | Three-state control (VCC/GND/open) selecting nominal voltage (e.g., 1.8V when both SEL1/SEL2 open). |
| SEL1 | Threshold selection input | Three-state control paired with SEL2 to define one of nine VM monitor thresholds per Table 1. |
| VM | Monitor input | High-impedance comparator input; compares against selected threshold; supports ADJ mode at 0.5V reference. |
| RST | Open-drain reset output | Asserts low during fault or reset timeout; requires external pull-up; sinks ≥2.5mA at 3.3V. |
| RT | Reset timeout control | Configures tRST: open = ~400μs, VCC = ~200ms, capacitor to GND = 9ms/nF scaling. |
| WT | Watchdog timeout control | Configures tWDU: open = ~3.2ms, VCC = ~1.6s, capacitor to GND = 72ms/nF scaling. |
| WDI | Watchdog input | Falling-edge-triggered input; must toggle within tWDL–tWDU window (50ms–1.6s) for B1 version. |
| VCC | Power supply input | Operates 1.5V–5.5V; includes 6.2V shunt regulator for >5.7V supplies; minimum functional voltage = 0.8V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Windowed watchdog timer | Enforces strict timing discipline: WDI falling edges must occur between 50ms and 1.6s intervals - prevents false clears from noise or stuck states. |
| Manual reset with integrated pull-up | Eliminates external resistor requirement; MR pin directly interfaces with momentary switch for field service or recovery. |
| Glitch-immune comparator | Rejects transients <10μs duration and <5% threshold magnitude - avoids spurious resets during load switching or EMI events. |
| Automotive temperature grade | Qualified for –40°C to 125°C ambient operation - meets AEC-Q100 stress test requirements for engine control and ADAS modules. |
| Adjustable threshold mode | VM pin accepts external resistive divider to set custom trip point (e.g., 9V @ –15%) with ±1.5% accuracy over temperature. |
Applications
| Engine Control Unit (ECU) Power Monitoring | ADAS Camera Module Supervision |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar voltage supervisor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6369KA22+T | Fixed 2.2V threshold; no manual reset; non-windowed watchdog; 16-pin TQFN. | Lacks adjustable thresholds and MR pin - suitable only for single-rail systems with fixed trip point. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs configurability needs and 2.2V monitoring suffices. |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Fixed 3.3V threshold; no watchdog; 6-pin SOT-23; 1.6μA quiescent current. | No timing supervision - limited to basic power-on reset without firmware health checking. | Choose for ultra-low-power, single-threshold applications where watchdog functionality is unnecessary. |
Compared with MAX6369KA22+T and TPS3808G33DBVR, the LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF uniquely combines 9 programmable thresholds, manual reset, and windowed watchdog in a 10-lead MSOP - enabling robust, flexible supervision for multi-rail automotive and industrial systems without layout redesign.

FAQ
What is the function of the MR pin on the LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF?
The MR (Manual Reset) pin on the LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF is an active-low input with an internal 100kΩ pull-up resistor to VCC. When pulled below 0.2×VCC, it forces the RST output low for the full reset timeout period (e.g., 200ms if RT = VCC). This enables direct push-button reset without external components - a feature exclusive to the LTC2918 family and not present in the LTC2917.
Does the LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF support windowed watchdog operation?
Yes, the LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF supports windowed watchdog operation as indicated by the "B1" suffix. It enforces both upper (tWDU = 1.6s when WT = VCC) and lower (tWDL = 50ms) timing boundaries on WDI falling edges. If a falling edge occurs before tWDL or after tWDU, RST is asserted - a key reliability feature for safety-critical firmware validation.
What is the minimum VCC voltage required for the LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF to assert a valid RST signal?
The LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF guarantees RST assertion for VCC ≥ 0.8V, per Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics. Below 0.8V, RST behavior is undefined. At VCC = 0.8V, the device remains functional enough to drive RST low with ≤15μA sink current - ensuring fail-safe reset during brownout conditions before full power-up.
Can the LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF monitor a 12V supply directly?
Yes, the LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF 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. The VM pin is then configured via SEL1/SEL2 = VCC/VCC for 12V threshold monitoring.
How does the LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF achieve ±1.5% threshold accuracy over temperature?
The LTC2918HMS-B1#TRPBF achieves ±1.5% threshold accuracy over –40°C to 125°C through factory-trimmed bandgap references and matched resistor ladders inside its comparator matrix. This specification is guaranteed across the full operating temperature range - not just at 25°C - and applies uniformly to all nine selectable thresholds, including ADJ mode referenced to 0.5V.
