Product details
Overview
LTC2939IMS#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a configurable six-supply voltage monitor IC with integrated watchdog timer, reset output, and 16 selectable threshold combinations for multivoltage systems. It monitors up to six supplies-including 5V, 3.3V, 2.5V, 1.8V, 1.5V, 1.2V, and ±adjustable inputs-with ±1.5% threshold accuracy over temperature, 80μA typical supply current, and guaranteed RST operation down to VCC = 1V. It is used in telecom servers requiring reliable power-up sequencing and fault detection.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2939IMS#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2939IMS#TRPBF pinout, LTC2939IMS#TRPBF application, or LTC2939IMS#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 16-mode programmable configuration via VPG resistive divider, adjustable reset/watchdog timeouts using CRT/CWT capacitors, six independent high-impedance voltage inputs (V1–V6), ±1.5% threshold accuracy, and operation across –40°C to +85°C.
Technical Context
The LTC2939IMS#TRPBF implements six independent comparators referenced to either fixed thresholds (e.g., 4.675V for 5V, 3.086V for 3.3V) or a 0.5V internal reference for ADJ/–ADJ modes, with VPG selecting one of sixteen preset combinations via external resistor divider. Its bandgap reference (1.210V ±18mV) feeds both the VPG interface and negative-adjustable mode level-shifting.
Reset assertion is triggered when any monitored supply falls below its configured threshold; RST remains low for a user-defined tRST (2–4ms/nF on CRT), while WDO latches low after un serviced watchdog timeout tWD (20–40ms/nF on CWT). Both outputs feature weak 6μA pull-ups to V2, requiring external pull-ups for V2 ≤ 2.5V to meet downstream VIH requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Inputs | 6 independent high-impedance inputs (V1–V6); supports 5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V/1.5V/1.2V presets plus ADJ/–ADJ modes |
| Threshold Accuracy | ±1.5% over full temperature range - ensures reliable reset without false triggering in ±5% supply systems |
| Reset Timeout (tRST) | Adjustable 2–4 ms per nF on CRT pin - enables precise match to microprocessor reset timing requirements |
| Watchdog Timeout (tWD) | Adjustable 20–40 ms per nF on CWT pin - allows software execution window tuning without firmware changes |
| Supply Current | 80 μA typical - suitable for always-on monitoring in battery-backed or low-power embedded systems |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +85°C (I-grade) - qualified for industrial and telecom infrastructure environments |
| VCC Minimum | 1 V - guarantees correct RST logic state during brownout, enabling fail-safe behavior before core logic fails |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-Lead Plastic MSOP (3mm × 4.9mm, 0.65mm pitch), exposed pad optional for thermal enhancement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V1 | Main supply input / VCC source | Primary voltage input (5V or 3.3V); greater of V1/V2 sets internal VCC; must be bypassed with ≥0.1μF capacitor |
| V2 | Secondary supply input / VCC source | Second voltage input (3.3V/2.5V/1.8V/1.5V/1.2V); contributes to VCC; all status outputs weakly pulled up to this rail |
| V3–V6 | Configurable voltage monitor inputs | High-impedance comparator inputs; V3/V4 support ADJ/–ADJ; V5/V6 fixed 0.5V threshold for LTC2939-only six-input operation |
| VPG | Configuration select input | Accepts resistive divider from VREF to GND to select one of 16 voltage-monitoring combinations; no capacitance allowed |
| VREF | Buffered reference output | 1.210V ±18mV buffered reference; sources/sinks ±1mA; used for VPG programming and –ADJ level shifting |
| RST | Reset output | Open-drain output with 6μA weak pull-up to V2; asserts low on undervoltage or watchdog timeout; requires external pull-up for V2 ≤ 2.5V |
| WDO | Watchdog output | Open-drain watchdog status output; latched low after un serviced timeout; cleared by WDI edge or undervoltage event |
| WDI | Watchdog input | Three-state input; toggling within tWD prevents WDO assertion; floating or constant level disables watchdog |
| CRT | Reset timeout capacitor terminal | Connects to GND via capacitor to set tRST = 2ms/nF; open-circuit yields ~20μs minimum delay |
| CWT | Watchdog timeout capacitor terminal | Connects to GND via capacitor to set tWD = 20ms/nF; grounded to disable watchdog function |
| GND | Device ground reference | Analog and digital ground return; exposed pad (MSOP) may be connected to PCB GND for improved thermal performance |
| NC | No internal connection | Pins 4 and 13 are unconnected; must not be tied to any signal or power rail |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 16-Mode Programmable Configuration | Selects exact combination of 6 supply thresholds (e.g., 5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V/1.2V/ADJ) via single VPG resistive divider - eliminates BOM variants and simplifies design reuse |
| ±1.5% Threshold Accuracy Over Temperature | Guarantees reset activation only outside system supply tolerance band - prevents nuisance resets in 5% rails like 5V (4.600–4.750V window) |
| Independent ADJ and –ADJ Inputs | V4 supports negative voltage monitoring (e.g., –12V at –11.30V trip) using VREF as level-shift reference - enables single-chip supervision of bipolar supplies |
| Glitch-Immune Comparators | Internal filtering rejects short transients (<150μs) on V1–V6 - avoids false resets from switching noise or load dumps |
| Low-Power Operation (80μA) | Enables continuous monitoring in always-on subsystems (e.g., baseband processors, clock domains) without impacting system quiescent budget |
| Guaranteed RST Below 1V VCC | Maintains valid reset assertion during deep brownout - ensures controlled shutdown even as main supplies collapse |
Applications
| Telecom Network Server | Automotive ADAS Controller |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar six-supply monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6816ESE+ | 4-supply monitor only; no watchdog; fixed 3.0V/3.3V/5.0V thresholds; no ADJ/–ADJ capability | Cannot replace LTC2939IMS#TRPBF in six-rail or adjustable-threshold designs; limited to simpler 4-rail systems | Select only if system has ≤4 supplies and no watchdog or adjustable monitoring required. |

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC2939IMS#TRPBF?
The LTC2939IMS#TRPBF is rated for –40°C to +85°C (I-grade), making it suitable for industrial and telecom applications. This range is confirmed in the "Order Information" table and "Absolute Maximum Ratings" section of the official datasheet. The device maintains full specification compliance-including ±1.5% threshold accuracy and 80μA supply current-across this entire range.
How many voltage inputs does the LTC2939IMS#TRPBF support, and what types are they?
The LTC2939IMS#TRPBF supports six voltage inputs: V1 through V6. V1 and V2 accept standard rails (5V, 3.3V, 2.5V, etc.) and also define internal VCC. V3 and V4 support fixed thresholds or ADJ/–ADJ modes. V5 and V6 are dedicated high-impedance inputs with 0.5V nominal threshold-exclusive to the LTC2939 and enabling true six-supply monitoring beyond the LTC2938's four-input limit.
Can the LTC2939IMS#TRPBF monitor negative voltages?
Yes-the LTC2939IMS#TRPBF supports negative voltage monitoring via the –ADJ mode on V4. In this configuration, an external resistive divider connects between the negative supply and VREF (1.210V), enabling precise trip points such as –11.30V for a –12V rail. This capability is explicitly documented in the "Voltage Configuration Table," "Applications Information," and "PIN FUNCTIONS" sections of the datasheet.
What is the role of the VPG pin on the LTC2939IMS#TRPBF?
The VPG pin on the LTC2939IMS#TRPBF selects one of sixteen predefined voltage-monitoring combinations using an external resistive divider from VREF to GND. During a ~150μs configuration window at power-up, the device samples VPG voltage and configures comparators accordingly. The datasheet provides exact 1% resistor values (e.g., R1=59kΩ/R2=40.2kΩ for Mode 6: 5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V) to ensure accurate mode selection.
Does the LTC2939IMS#TRPBF require external pull-up resistors on RST and WDO?
Yes-external pull-up resistors are required on RST and WDO when V2 is configured to monitor 2.5V or lower (e.g., 1.8V, 1.5V, 1.2V). The internal 6μA pull-up to V2 cannot guarantee VOH above typical VIH thresholds (e.g., >2.0V for 3.3V logic). The datasheet explicitly states: "For V2 configured to monitor 1.2V, 1.5V, 1.8V and 2.5V supplies, external pull-up resistors are required."
