Product details
Overview
LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a micropower pushbutton ON/OFF controller with negative-enable polarity (EN low-true), operating from 2.7V to 26.4V input, featuring 6µA quiescent current, 128ms turn-on debounce, and adjustable KILL timeout for fail-safe power-down in battery-powered systems such as portable instrumentation and blade servers.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF pinout, LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF application, or LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its –40°C to +85°C industrial temperature grade, TSOT-23-8 package, KILL input threshold of 0.6V ±30mV, EN output leakage <±0.1µA, and compatibility with circuit breaker control via active-low enable.
Technical Context
The LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF implements a dual-stage timing architecture: fixed 128ms turn-on debounce (tDB,ON) followed by a 512ms KILL blanking window (tKILL,ON BLANK), during which the µP must assert KILL high to prevent automatic shutdown. Its KILL path includes both internal 128ms turn-off delay (tKILL,OFF DELAY) and externally adjustable extension via KILLT capacitor.
It uses open-drain outputs (EN, INT) with VOL ≤0.4V at 3mA, supports high-voltage PB input (–6V to 26.4V) with ±10kV HBM ESD rating, and integrates accurate 0.6V KILL comparator with 10–50mV hysteresis-enabling reliable voltage monitoring and fault-triggered power-down without external components.

Applications
| Portable Instrumentation Meters | Blade Servers |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Handheld multimeter powered by two AA cells, requiring long shelf life and instant-on responsiveness. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF acts as primary power sequencer, asserting EN low only after 128ms PB press and verifying µP readiness via KILL handshake before full power-up. Use Value: 6µA quiescent current extends battery life to >5 years in standby; KILL blanking prevents spurious shutdown during cold-start voltage sag. | Use Scenario: 1U server chassis with hot-swap power modules and redundant controllers requiring coordinated power sequencing. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF provides independent, fail-safe power control per module, using KILL to trigger immediate EN release upon thermal or overcurrent fault signal from management ASIC. Use Value: Adjustable KILLT delay ensures sufficient time for fault logging before forced shutdown; TSOT-23-8 saves board space in dense backplane layouts. |
| Desktop and Notebook Computers | Portable Customer Service PDA |
Use Scenario: Embedded controller managing auxiliary power rails (e.g., USB-C PD port, fan controller) in thin-and-light laptops. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF serves as secondary power manager, interfacing with main SoC via INT/KILL to coordinate graceful shutdown during battery depletion. Use Value: 0.6V KILL threshold enables direct connection to battery voltage divider, eliminating need for dedicated supervisor IC and reducing BOM count. | Use Scenario: Ruggedized field service PDA used in warehouses, powered by removable Li-ion pack with strict energy budget. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF controls main system power, using OFFT capacitor to extend PB hold time to 50ms-preventing accidental power-off during brief button presses in glove use. Use Value: TSOT-23-8 package withstands mechanical shock; ±10kV PB ESD rating ensures robustness against static discharge in dry environments. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar pushbutton power control applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Fixed 3.3V reset threshold; no KILL handshake or adjustable timers; 1.6µA IQ; SOT-23-5 | Basic reset-only function; lacks pushbutton sequencing, INT interrupt, or fail-safe KILL timeout | Select only for simple undervoltage reset where full ON/OFF control and µP coordination are unnecessary |
| MAX16054ATA+T | Wider VIN (1.8V–36V); 12µA IQ; fixed 200ms debounce; no KILL input; TDFN-8 | Supports lower-voltage systems but omits critical KILL fault-handling and µP handshake capability | Choose when higher input voltage range is required but KILL-based fail-safe shutdown is not needed |
Compared with TPS3808G33DBVR and MAX16054ATA+T, the LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF uniquely combines industrial temperature operation, adjustable KILL/turn-off timing, and µP-interrupt handshaking-making it the only option that fully satisfies requirements for controlled, fault-resilient power sequencing in battery-backed embedded systems.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range for the LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF?
The LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF is rated for –40°C to +85°C operation, qualifying it for industrial embedded applications including factory automation, outdoor instrumentation, and automotive auxiliary systems where ambient temperatures exceed commercial grade limits. This specification is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and Order Information section of the official datasheet.
How does the KILL input function in the LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF?
The KILL input in the LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF is a precision 0.6V comparator that initiates immediate EN release when driven low. During power-on, it is blanked for 512ms (tKILL,ON BLANK) to allow system stabilization; during normal operation, pulling KILL low forces EN low within 30µs (tKILL,PD). The LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF also supports voltage monitoring by connecting KILL to a resistor divider from VIN.
What is the difference between LTC2951-1 and LTC2951-2 versions?
The LTC2951-1 features an active-high EN output (EN asserted high), while the LTC2951-2-used in the LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF-has an active-low EN output (EN asserted low). Both share identical timing, voltage ratings, pinout, and functionality except for EN polarity, making LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF ideal for driving circuit breakers or NMOS/NPN switches requiring low-side enable control.
Can the LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF operate from a single-cell Li-ion battery?
Yes, the LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF operates from 2.7V to 26.4V, covering the full discharge range of a single-cell Li-ion battery (4.2V down to ~2.8V). Its 6µA quiescent current minimizes drain during standby, and the 0.6V KILL threshold allows direct battery voltage monitoring using a high-impedance resistor divider-enabling low-battery shutdown without additional supervisory ICs.
What package type is used for the LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF?
The LTC2951ITS8-2#TRPBF uses the 8-Lead Plastic TSOT-23 package (also referenced as TS8), measuring 2.9mm × 1.6mm with 0.65mm lead pitch. This compact outline is documented in the Package Description section (page 18) and Order Information table, and is distinct from the larger 3mm × 2mm DFN option used in DDB variants.
