Product details
Overview
LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF from Analog Devices is a quad configurable power supply supervisor IC with watchdog timer, designed for reliable system reset and fault monitoring in multi-rail power domains. It delivers ±0.5% threshold accuracy over temperature, supports 16 programmable voltage thresholds per channel (including 5V/3.3V/2.5V/1.8V/1.5V/1.2V/1.0V and ±ADJ modes), and features adjustable reset timeout (12–240 ms) and non-windowed watchdog with selectable initial timeout (1×/8×/64× upper period). It is used in telecom server power sequencing where precise, glitch-immune supervision of four independent supplies prevents spurious resets during brownout or margining.
For engineers reviewing the LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF datasheet, LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF pinout, LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF application, or LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 20-lead 3mm × 4mm QFN package, C-grade (0°C to 70°C) operation, integrated watchdog status output (WDO), RDIS-enabled reset disable for voltage margining, and DVCC-configurable push-pull/open-drain RST output.
Technical Context
The LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF implements a 4-channel analog comparator bank with a 4-bit ADC-based threshold selection architecture, where each PG input voltage (0 V to VREF) maps to one of 16 preset thresholds via external 1% resistors. Its ±0.5% accuracy is achieved through trimmed bandgap reference (1.195 V ±0.5%) and comparator offset compensation across –40°C to 125°C.
It integrates two independent RC-timed functions: a reset timeout controlled by CRT on RT (12 ms/nF, up to 240 ms), and a non-windowed watchdog timer controlled by CWT on WT (100 ms/nF, up to 2 s), with WDS enabling three initial timeout multipliers (1×/8×/64×). The RST output is guaranteed functional down to VCC = 1 V, and WDO operates as an open-drain status flag synchronized to watchdog expiration.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCC Range | 2.25 V to 5.5 V - powers core logic and enables RST pull-up; operation guaranteed down to 1 V for safe power-up reset assertion. |
| Threshold Accuracy | ±0.5% over temperature - ensures tight margin between supply tolerance and reset trigger, reducing false resets and relaxing PSU design requirements. |
| Reset Timeout Range | 12 ms to 240 ms - set via CRT capacitor on RT pin; internal 200 ms default when RT tied to VCC. |
| Watchdog Upper Timeout | 100 ms to 2 s - set via CWT capacitor on WT pin; internal 1.6 s when WT tied to VCC. |
| Initial Watchdog Timeout | 1×, 8×, or 64× upper timeout - selected by WDS logic level (low/open/high), allowing extended initialization time after reset. |
| RST Output Type | Configurable push-pull (DVCC ≥ 1.6 V) or open-drain (DVCC = GND) - supports direct interfacing to 1.8 V/3.3 V/5 V logic without level shifters. |
| Supply Monitor Inputs | V1–V4 with ±ADJ capability - enables undervoltage, overvoltage, and negative voltage monitoring using external resistor dividers. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 20-lead 3 mm × 4 mm plastic QFN (UDC), exposed pad (Pin 21) optional PCB ground connection. Thermal resistance θJA = 52°C/W, θJC = 6.8°C/W.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| RDIS | Reset Disable Input | Logic-low disables RST assertion - enables safe voltage margining without triggering system reset. |
| MR | Manual Reset Input | Pulled up internally to VCC; falling edge forces immediate RST low - supports pushbutton reset with built-in debounce. |
| DVCC | Digital Logic Supply | Sets RST/WDO output swing: ≥1.6 V enables push-pull; GND configures open-drain - decouples logic level from VCC. |
| VCC | Analog Core Supply | Powers comparators, reference, and timing circuits; RST weakly pulled up to this rail. |
| RST | Reset Output | Asserts low if any Vn falls below threshold; held low for tRST after all channels recover - primary system reset signal. |
| GND | Device Ground | Reference for all analog inputs and outputs; exposed pad connects internally to GND. |
| REF | Buffered Reference Output | 1.195 V ±0.5% reference for PG divider networks - drives ≤1 mA, stable with ≤1000 pF bypass. |
| PG1–PG4 | Threshold Select Inputs | Each accepts 0–VREF voltage to select one of 16 thresholds per channel - enables precise, resistor-based configuration. |
| V1–V4 | Monitor Inputs | Accept supply voltages directly (up to 6 V); high-impedance (±15 nA in ±ADJ mode) minimizes loading. |
| RT | Reset Timeout Capacitor Input | Connect CRT to GND for adjustable timeout (12 ms/nF); tie to VCC for fixed 200 ms - sets duration RST stays low after recovery. |
| WDI | Watchdog Input | Rising/falling edges reset watchdog counter - must occur before timeout expires to prevent WDO/RST assertion. |
| WDO | Watchdog Output | Open-drain status flag - pulls low on watchdog timeout; cleared only by valid WDI edge or undervoltage event. |
| WDS | Initial Watchdog Timeout Select | Three-state input (low/open/high) selects 1×/8×/64× upper timeout - accommodates boot-time latency in supervised processors. |
| WT | Watchdog Timeout Capacitor Input | Connect CWT to GND for adjustable timeout (100 ms/nF); tie to VCC for fixed 1.6 s - defines watchdog window duration. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ±0.5% threshold accuracy over temperature | Reduces required system voltage margin by ~1% vs ±1% supervisors, enabling smaller bulk capacitors and relaxed PSU regulation specs. |
| Configurable non-windowed watchdog with initial timeout scaling | WDS pin allows 3× boot-time flexibility - avoids premature watchdog timeout during processor initialization sequences. |
| DVCC-configurable RST/WDO output drive | Eliminates need for external level shifters when interfacing to mixed-voltage logic domains (e.g., 1.8 V MCU + 3.3 V peripherals). |
| Reset disable (RDIS) for voltage margining | Enables safe testing of microprocessor supply limits without issuing disruptive system resets - critical for production burn-in and validation. |
| Four independent monitor inputs with ±ADJ mode | Supports simultaneous monitoring of positive rails, negative rails, and overvoltage conditions using single device and shared REF. |
Applications
| Telecom Server Power Sequencing | Automotive ADAS Domain Controller Supervision |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad supervisor with watchdog applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6361AUK+T | Triple supervisor (not quad); no watchdog; fixed thresholds only (no PG programming); SOT23-6 package. | Lacks channel count, configurability, and watchdog - suitable only for simpler 3-rail systems without runtime fault detection. | Select only if system has ≤3 rails and requires minimal BOM count; not a functional replacement for LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF. |
| TPS389033DSER | Quad supervisor with watchdog; 1.8 V to 5.5 V VCC; ±1.5% threshold accuracy; 16-pin WSON; no RDIS or ±ADJ mode. | Lower accuracy increases risk of false resets under thermal stress; lacks reset disable and negative/overvoltage monitoring capability. | Consider for cost-sensitive designs where ±1.5% accuracy suffices and negative rail monitoring is unnecessary. |
Compared with MAX6361AUK+T and TPS389033DSER, the LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF provides unique value in its combination of quad monitoring, ±0.5% accuracy, full programmability via PG inputs, RDIS-enabled margining, and true ±ADJ mode - making it irreplaceable for high-integrity, multi-rail systems requiring both precision and flexibility.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF?
The LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF is rated for the C-grade temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. This specification is confirmed in the "ORDER INFORMATION" table of the official datasheet, where the part number suffix "CUDC-1" explicitly denotes the commercial temperature grade. It is not rated for extended industrial (–40°C to 85°C) or automotive (–40°C to 125°C) ranges.
Does the LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF support overvoltage monitoring?
Yes, the LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF supports overvoltage monitoring via its –ADJ mode. When configured in –ADJ, the comparator references the 0.5 V internal threshold, so a positive supply monitored through an external resistor divider will assert RST when the input exceeds the programmed threshold - effectively functioning as an overvoltage detector. This is explicitly documented in the "DESCRIPTION" and "PIN FUNCTIONS" sections.
How is the watchdog timeout configured on the LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF?
The watchdog timeout on the LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF is configured using an external capacitor (CWT) connected between the WT pin and GND, yielding a timeout of 100 ms/nF. Alternatively, tying WT to VCC selects a fixed 1.6 s timeout, while leaving WT open results in ~2 ms (parasitic-dependent). These configurations are defined in the "ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS" table and "PIN FUNCTIONS" section.
Can the LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF be used without connecting DVCC?
Yes - grounding the DVCC pin configures both RST and WDO as open-drain outputs pulled up weakly to VCC (6 µA). This is a supported and documented configuration in the "PIN FUNCTIONS" section, which states: "Ground the DVCC pin to configure the RST and WDO as open drain outputs. Do not leave DVCC open." Leaving DVCC unconnected is prohibited.
What is the minimum VCC voltage required for reliable reset assertion in the LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF?
The LTC2963CUDC-1#TRPBF guarantees correct RST output state down to VCC = 1 V, as stated in the "DESCRIPTION" section: "The RST output is guaranteed to be in the correct state for VCC input voltage down to 1V." This ensures robust power-on reset assertion even during slow-ramping or brownout conditions.
