Product details
Overview
LTC695CN#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a 16-pin microprocessor supervisory IC providing reset generation, watchdog timing, battery backup switching, power-fail warning, and RAM write protection. It features a 4.65V precision voltage monitor, 200ms typical reset active time, guaranteed RESET assertion down to VCC = 1V, and operates over 0°C to 70°C. It is used in embedded systems requiring robust power monitoring and nonvolatile memory retention during brownout.
For engineers reviewing the LTC695CN#PBF datasheet, LTC695CN#PBF pinout, LTC695CN#PBF application, or LTC695CN#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include reset threshold accuracy, battery switchover hysteresis, watchdog timeout configurability via OSC SEL, CE IN/CE OUT propagation delay, and compatibility with CMOS RAM write-protection schemes.
Technical Context
The LTC695CN#PBF integrates a bandgap voltage reference, precision comparator C1 for VCC monitoring, comparator C2 for battery switchover (70mV turn-on / 50mV turn-off threshold), and comparator C3 for power-fail detection (1.3V internal reference). Its internal oscillator sets fixed 200ms typical reset active time and dual watchdog periods (100ms/1.6s) when OSC SEL is high.
It implements charge-pumped NMOS (M1) and PMOS (M2) power switches for VOUT: M1 delivers up to 50mA from VCC with ~5Ω RDS(on), while M2 supplies standby current from VBATT with ~125Ω effective resistance and ≤1µA quiescent draw. CE IN/CE OUT gating enforces write protection by forcing CE OUT high during undervoltage events.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.65V typical; ensures reliable µP reset before VCC drops below 4.75V (5% tolerance). |
| Reset Active Time | 140ms min / 200ms typ; holds µP in reset long enough for supply stabilization after power-up or brownout recovery. |
| VOUT Output Current | 50mA max from VCC; sufficient to power small CMOS RAM banks without external boost. |
| Battery Switchover Hysteresis | 20mV; prevents oscillation when VCC ≈ VBATT during gradual power transitions. |
| Supply Current (Active) | 1.5mA max; enables low-power operation in always-on supervisory roles. |
| Standby Current (VBATT mode) | 1µA max; extends backup battery life for years in memory-retention applications. |
| Watchdog Timeout (Long) | 1.6s typical; provides ample time for firmware to service WDI without false resets. |
| CE Propagation Delay | 35ns max; ensures fast, glitch-free write-protection activation during voltage faults. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-lead PDIP (N package), 0°C to 70°C operating range, lead-free finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Primary 5V supply input | Must be bypassed with ≥0.1µF capacitor; powers internal circuitry and feeds VOUT via M1 switch. |
| VOUT | Backed-up memory supply output | Delivers regulated power to CMOS RAM; automatically switches between VCC and VBATT based on comparator C2. |
| VBATT | Battery backup input | Connects to auxiliary source (2.0–4.25V); supplies VOUT in backup mode with ≤1µA drain. |
| GND | Analog/digital ground reference | Common return path for all internal comparators, switches, and outputs. |
| BATT ON | Battery status logic output | Low when VOUT sourced from VCC; high when sourced from VBATT; can drive PNP base for higher-current backup. |
| OSC IN | Oscillator input | Accepts external clock or capacitor (with OSC SEL low); determines reset/watchdog timing in adjustable mode. |
| OSC SEL | Oscillator selection control | High/floating → internal oscillator (fixed 200ms reset); low → external timing source. |
| WDI | Watchdog input | Three-level input (high/low/floating); transition resets timeout; floating disables watchdog. |
| RESET | Active-low microprocessor reset | Guaranteed low down to VCC = 1V; asserts for ≥140ms after fault or watchdog timeout. |
| RESET | Active-high reset inverse | Logic complement of RESET; useful for systems requiring active-high reset signaling. |
| WDO | Watchdog logic output | Active-low watchdog flag; goes low if WDI remains static beyond timeout; resets high on WDI transition. |
| CE IN | Chip enable input | Accepts µP address/decoder signal; gated through CE OUT to protect RAM writes during undervoltage. |
| CE OUT | Protected chip enable output | Replica of CE IN when VCC is valid; forced high during reset to block RAM writes unconditionally. |
| PFI | Power-fail input | Non-inverting input to comparator C3 (1.3V ref); triggers PFO when sensed voltage falls below threshold. |
| PFO | Power-fail output | Active-low early-warning signal; used to initiate controlled shutdown before RESET asserts. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guaranteed RESET at VCC = 1V | Ensures µP remains held in known state even during deep brownout, preventing undefined execution. |
| Charge-pumped NMOS VOUT switch | Achieves <5Ω RDS(on) and low dropout from VCC, eliminating substrate injection and unwanted battery charging. |
| Configurable reset/watchdog timing | OSC SEL pin selects between fixed internal oscillator (200ms/1.6s) or user-defined external timing source. |
| Integrated RAM write protection | CE IN/CE OUT path forces high-impedance or logic-high CE during faults, preventing corruption of backed-up data. |
| Thermal limiting with shutdown | Activates at ~155°C with 10°C hysteresis; protects device during sustained overload or short-circuit conditions. |
| Low-power battery backup mode | Draws ≤1µA from VBATT while maintaining VOUT regulation, enabling multi-year backup with coin cells. |

FAQ
What is the guaranteed minimum reset active time for LTC695CN#PBF at 25°C?
The LTC695CN#PBF guarantees a minimum reset active time of 140ms after VCC falls below the 4.65V threshold or after watchdog timeout. This is specified across the full 0°C to 70°C operating range and ensures sufficient hold time for microprocessor initialization and power supply stabilization before release.
How does LTC695CN#PBF handle battery switchover between VCC and VBATT?
The LTC695CN#PBF uses comparator C2 to monitor the differential between VCC and VBATT. It connects VOUT to VCC when VCC exceeds VBATT by ≥70mV (power-up), and switches to VBATT when VCC falls ≤50mV above VBATT (power-down), with 20mV hysteresis to prevent chatter. The NMOS (M1) and PMOS (M2) switches provide low-dropout paths with ≤5Ω and ≤125Ω effective resistances respectively.
Can LTC695CN#PBF be used with lithium-based backup batteries?
Yes - the LTC695CN#PBF's charge-pumped NMOS VOUT switch eliminates substrate current injection into VBATT, avoiding unintended charging of lithium coin cells or Li-MnO₂ batteries. Its battery standby current is limited to ≤1µA, making it safe and efficient for long-term lithium-based backup applications without risk of overcharge or accelerated degradation.
What is the function of the CE IN and CE OUT pins on LTC695CN#PBF?
CE IN accepts a microprocessor address or decoder signal; CE OUT is its buffered, fault-protected replica. When VCC is valid, CE OUT follows CE IN with ≤35ns propagation delay. When VCC drops below 4.65V or VBATT, CE OUT is forced high - unconditionally disabling RAM write operations and preventing data corruption during power faults. This hardware gating replaces software-based write protection.
Does LTC695CN#PBF support adjustable reset timing, and how is it configured?
Yes - LTC695CN#PBF supports adjustable reset timing via the OSC SEL pin. When OSC SEL is pulled low, the internal oscillator is disabled and OSC IN accepts an external clock or RC network. Reset active time and watchdog timeout become proportional to external clock cycles (e.g., 64× clock period), enabling precise customization beyond the fixed 200ms/1.6s defaults used when OSC SEL is high or floating.
