Product details
Overview
LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF from Analog Devices is a programmable dual-edge delay block in the TimerBlox family, delivering 1µs–33.6s input-to-output delay with ±2.3% accuracy for delays >512µs. It operates from 2.25V to 5.5V, draws as low as 55µA at 2.25V/800kΩ, and features CMOS output sourcing/sinking 20mA - used in switch debouncing, noise discrimination, and pulse qualification in automotive control modules.
For engineers reviewing the LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF datasheet, LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF pinout, LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF application, or LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include delay accuracy over temperature (±0.006%/°C for NDIV ≥512), dynamic DIV pin programming via resistor divider, polarity-selectable inversion (POL bit), and AEC-Q100 qualification for –40°C to 85°C operation.
Technical Context
The LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF implements an edge-controlled delay architecture using a master oscillator (tMASTER = 1µs × RSET/50kΩ) and an 8-step programmable divider (NDIV = 1, 8, 64, 512, 4096, 215, 218, 221). Its internal 4-bit A/D converter reads VDIV to set both NDIV and the POL bit, enabling either noninverting or inverting dual-edge delay behavior.
Unlike the LTC6994-1, the LTC6994-2 variant delays both rising and falling edges of the IN signal, and supports output inversion when POL = 1. Delay settling occurs within 6 × tMASTER, and the device halts oscillator operation if ISET drops below ~500nA - ensuring ultra-low idle current in battery-powered applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Delay Range | 1µs to 33.6 seconds - covers microsecond-level timing and multi-second system sequencing without external components. |
| Delay Accuracy | ±2.3% for tDELAY > 512µs - enables reliable pulse qualification in noisy industrial environments. |
| Supply Voltage | 2.25V to 5.5V - supports direct interface with 3.3V and 5V logic, plus low-voltage battery operation. |
| Supply Current | 55µA at 2.25V/800kΩ - allows years of operation on coin-cell batteries in portable equipment. |

Pinout & Package
Package: 6-Lead Plastic TSOT-23 (S6), 1mm profile, lead-free finish (LTFCX marking), exposed pad optional.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| IN (Pin 1) | Logic Input | Accepts 0.3V+/0.7V+ hysteresis thresholds; triggers delay on rising/falling edges per POL setting. |
| GND (Pin 2) | Ground Reference | Low-inductance return path for SET, DIV, and output driver; must connect to solid ground plane. |
| SET (Pin 3) | Delay Programming | Sinks ISET = 1V/RSET; sets tMASTER with 1µs/50kΩ scaling - precision resistor required for accuracy. |
| OUT (Pin 6) | CMOS Output | Swings rail-to-rail (GND to V+); 30Ω typical output resistance; requires series resistor for LED loads. |
| V+ (Pin 5) | Power Supply | 2.25V–5.5V input; bypassed with 0.1µF capacitor to GND for stable oscillator operation. |
| DIV (Pin 4) | Divider & Polarity Control | 4-bit A/D input; voltage divider (R1/R2) selects NDIV and POL bit - ±1.5% VDIV/V+ tolerance required. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-edge delay with inversion option | LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF delays both IN transitions and supports output inversion via POL bit - eliminates need for external XOR logic in pulse-stretching circuits. |

| Noise-immune input threshold | Hysteresis scales with V+ (VIN(RISING) ≈ 0.55×V+ + 185mV); rejects sub-5ns glitches - ideal for mechanical switch debouncing in high-vibration environments. |
| Ultra-low idle current | As low as 55µA at 2.25V/800kΩ - extends battery life in portable medical devices and IoT sensors. |
Applications
| Switch Debouncing | Noise Discrimination |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Mechanical pushbutton in automotive door module generates contact bounce during actuation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF delays both rising and falling edges by 10ms to suppress bounce artifacts before routing clean signal to MCU. Use Value: Eliminates firmware debounce routines and reduces MCU interrupt load while maintaining deterministic 10ms response window. | Use Scenario: Sensor output in industrial PLC exposed to EMI-induced transients on long cables. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF acts as pulse qualifier - only passes input pulses wider than programmed tDELAY (e.g., 100µs). Use Value: Rejects <100µs noise spikes without analog filtering, preserving signal integrity and reducing false triggers. |
| Delay Matching | Portable Equipment Timing |
Use Scenario: Synchronized enable signals required for multiple DC-DC converters in telecom power supply. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF provides matched delays (e.g., 500µs) across parallel channels using identical RSET/RDIV networks. Use Value: Achieves <±1% inter-channel delay matching across temperature - critical for phase-aligned power sequencing. | Use Scenario: Low-power wearable sensor wakes MCU only after sustained motion detected for >2s. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF holds MCU reset line low until motion signal remains active for full tDELAY (2s), then releases. Use Value: Reduces average system current to <1µA during standby by eliminating periodic polling. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar programmable delay applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC6994IS6-1#WTRMPBF | Delays only rising OR falling edge (POL-selectable), no output inversion capability. | Suitable for single-edge timing or asymmetric pulse shaping where inversion is unnecessary. | Select when only one transition needs delay and board space permits same SOT-23 footprint. |
| MAX6816EUT+T | Fixed 10ms debounce time, no programmable delay range or dual-edge support. | Targeted exclusively at mechanical switch debouncing with no flexibility for other timing functions. | Choose for cost-sensitive, high-volume button interfaces where 10ms fixed delay suffices. |
Compared with LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF, the LTC6994IS6-1#WTRMPBF lacks dual-edge delay and inversion, limiting use to single-transition applications; MAX6816EUT+T offers lower cost but zero configurability - making LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF the only AEC-Q100-qualified, fully programmable dual-edge solution in SOT-23.

FAQ
What is the minimum and maximum delay achievable with the LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF?
The LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF achieves a delay range of 1µs to 33.6 seconds. Minimum delay occurs with RSET = 50kΩ and NDIV = 1; maximum delay uses RSET = 800kΩ and NDIV = 221. The actual delay is calculated as tDELAY = NDIV × RSET / 50kΩ × 1µs, with accuracy specified per NDIV range.
How does the POL bit affect the operation of the LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF?
In the LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF, the POL bit (MSB of DIVCODE) controls output polarity: when POL = 0, the output is noninverting; when POL = 1, the output is inverted. Unlike the LTC6994-1, this does not change edge selection - both rising and falling edges are always delayed, regardless of POL state.
Can the LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF operate from a 2.5V supply?
Yes, the LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF operates from 2.25V to 5.5V, including 2.5V. At 2.5V, it delivers ±20mA output drive, 55–90µA supply current (depending on RSET and NDIV), and maintains full delay accuracy specifications across –40°C to +85°C.
What is the purpose of the SET pin on the LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF?
The SET pin on the LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF sinks a current (ISET) that programs the master oscillator frequency. With a resistor RSET from SET to GND, ISET = 1V/RSET, establishing tMASTER = 1µs × RSET/50kΩ. This current directly determines the base timing unit before division by NDIV.
Is the LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the LTC6994IS6-2#WTRMPBF carries the #W suffix indicating automotive qualification. It is AEC-Q100 Grade I qualified for –40°C to +85°C operation and manufactured under controlled processes meeting automotive reliability standards - confirmed by Analog Devices' Automotive Reliability Reports.
