Product details
Overview
LTC692CS8#TRPBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is an 8-pin SOIC microprocessor supervisory IC with integrated battery backup switching, power-fail warning, watchdog timer, and RAM write-protection gating. It features a 4.40V precision reset threshold, guaranteed RESET assertion down to VCC = 1V, 1.5mA max supply current, 35ns CE gating delay, and 200ms typical reset active time. It is used in battery-powered controllers and automotive systems requiring robust power monitoring and memory integrity.
For engineers reviewing the LTC692CS8#TRPBF datasheet, LTC692CS8#TRPBF pinout, LTC692CS8#TRPBF application, or LTC692CS8#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its fixed 200ms reset timeout (non-adjustable), absence of RESET and LOW LINE dual outputs (distinguishing it from LTC693), 8-pin SOIC package, and support for CMOS RAM write-protection via CE IN/CE OUT logic gating.
Technical Context
The LTC692CS8#TRPBF implements a bandgap-referenced voltage comparator (C1) for precise 4.40V ±150mV reset threshold detection with 40mV hysteresis, ensuring immunity to VCC transients. Its internal charge-pumped NMOS switch delivers up to 50mA to VOUT with 5Ω typical on-resistance and supports seamless switchover to VBATT when VCC drops below VBATT by ≥50mV.
A dedicated power-fail comparator (C3) references a stable 1.3V internal reference and drives PFO low when PFI falls below 1.3V; C3 has no built-in hysteresis but supports external hysteresis via feedback. The watchdog timer uses either the internal oscillator (1.6s/100ms timeout) or external clock input (OSC IN), with WDI requiring toggling within timeout to prevent forced RESET assertion.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.40V typical (±150mV over temp); ensures reliable μP reset before 5V rail collapse |
| Reset Active Time | 200ms typical (min 140ms); fixed duration, non-adjustable - differs from LTC693 |
| VOUT Output Capability | 50mA max at VCC – 0.5V dropout; powers backed-up CMOS RAM directly |
| Battery Switchover Threshold | VCC – VBATT ≥ 50mV (power-down), ≥70mV (power-up); includes 20mV hysteresis |
| Supply Current | 1.5mA max (active), 1μA max (battery backup mode); enables long-life battery operation |
| CE Gating Delay | 35ns max propagation; fast write-protection activation during brownout |

Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead plastic SO (SOIC-8), surface-mount, JEDEC MS-012, 3.9mm × 4.9mm body, 1.27mm pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VOUT | Voltage output for backed-up memory | Delivers regulated power to CMOS RAM; switches between VCC (NMOS) and VBATT (PMOS) |
| VCC | Main 5V supply input | Primary power source; monitored for reset; requires 0.1μF bypass capacitor |
| GND | Ground reference | Common return for all analog and digital circuitry; critical for comparator accuracy |
| PFI | Power-fail input | Non-inverting input to 1.3V-referenced comparator; senses early rail collapse |
| VBATT | Backup battery input | Source for VOUT during main supply loss; operates 2.0V–4.0V |
| RESET | Active-low microprocessor reset output | Guaranteed logic low down to VCC = 1V; min 140ms pulse width |
| WDI | Watchdog input | Three-level input (high/low/floating); floating disables watchdog timer |
| PFO | Power-fail output | Active-low open-drain signal; asserts when PFI < 1.3V |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC693CS8#TRPBF | 16-pin SOIC; adds RESET (active-high), LOW LINE, OSC SEL, and adjustable reset timeout via external capacitor | Supports dual-reset signaling and configurable timing; required for designs needing RESET/LOW LINE separation or timeout tuning | Select when dual-output reset signaling or programmable reset duration is mandatory; not pin-compatible |
| MAX690ESA+ | 8-pin SOIC; 4.65V reset threshold; no integrated battery switchover or CE gating; higher 2.5mA supply current | Lacks RAM write-protection and battery backup functions; requires external components for equivalent functionality | Select only for legacy drop-in replacement where battery backup and CE gating are handled externally |
Compared with LTC692CS8#TRPBF, LTC693CS8#TRPBF offers expanded functionality at the cost of larger footprint and pin count, while MAX690ESA+ provides basic reset-only supervision with higher quiescent current and no integrated memory protection - making LTC692CS8#TRPBF the optimal balance of integration, size, and low-power performance for new designs requiring full supervisory capability in 8-pin SOIC.

FAQ
What is the reset voltage threshold of the LTC692CS8#TRPBF?
The LTC692CS8#TRPBF has a nominal reset voltage threshold of 4.40V, with a guaranteed range of 4.25V to 4.50V over the full operating temperature range. This threshold is set by an internal bandgap-referenced comparator and includes 40mV of hysteresis to prevent false triggering from VCC noise or transients. The LTC692CS8#TRPBF guarantees RESET remains asserted even when VCC drops as low as 1V, ensuring reliable microprocessor hold-down during deep brownout conditions.
Does the LTC692CS8#TRPBF support adjustable reset timeout?
No, the LTC692CS8#TRPBF does not support adjustable reset timeout. Its reset active time is fixed at 200ms typical (minimum 140ms) and is determined solely by the internal oscillator. In contrast, the pin-compatible but functionally enhanced LTC693CS8#TRPBF provides an adjustable reset timeout via external capacitor on the OSC IN pin. Therefore, if variable reset duration is required, the LTC692CS8#TRPBF must be replaced with the LTC693 variant - the LTC692CS8#TRPBF itself has no provision for timeout adjustment.
Can the LTC692CS8#TRPBF drive CMOS RAM chip-enable signals directly?
Yes, the LTC692CS8#TRPBF includes dedicated CE IN and CE OUT pins for direct RAM write-protection. CE OUT is a buffered, gated replica of CE IN when VCC is above the reset threshold; when VCC falls below 4.40V or VBATT, CE OUT is forced high to disable writes. Propagation delay is 35ns maximum, enabling fast, glitch-free write-locking. The CE OUT output can sink/source up to 35mA, allowing direct interface with standard CMOS RAM or EEPROM chip-enable inputs without external buffers - a core feature distinguishing LTC692CS8#TRPBF from basic reset-only supervisors.
What is the maximum continuous output current from the VOUT pin of the LTC692CS8#TRPBF?
The VOUT pin of the LTC692CS8#TRPBF delivers up to 50mA continuously when powered from VCC, with a typical dropout voltage of VCC – 0.05V at 1mA and VCC – 0.50V at 50mA. It uses a charge-pumped NMOS switch with 5Ω typical on-resistance. In battery backup mode (VCC < VBATT), VOUT draws from VBATT via a 125Ω PMOS switch, limiting current to ~250μA - sufficient for low-power CMOS RAM retention but not for active logic. Thermal shutdown activates at ~155°C if overloaded, protecting the LTC692CS8#TRPBF during sustained overcurrent.
How does the power-fail warning function work on the LTC692CS8#TRPBF?
The LTC692CS8#TRPBF implements power-fail warning using a dedicated comparator (C3) that compares the voltage at the PFI pin against an internal 1.3V reference. When PFI falls below 1.3V, the open-drain PFO output pulls low, signaling impending supply collapse. PFI is typically driven by a resistor divider from the monitored rail (e.g., unregulated input or regulated 5V). Unlike the reset comparator, C3 has no built-in hysteresis, but external hysteresis can be added via feedback from PFO to PFI. This allows designers to set PFO assertion several milliseconds before RESET triggers, giving the microprocessor time to execute controlled shutdown - a key capability enabled by the LTC692CS8#TRPBF's dual-threshold architecture.
