Product details
Overview
LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF from Analog Devices is an active-low reset silicon oscillator IC designed for long-duration timing events in embedded and automotive systems. It delivers programmable output periods from 1.024ms to 9.54 hours (29.1µHz–977Hz), features ±1.5% max frequency accuracy over temperature, operates from 2.25V–5.5V, draws as low as 55µA, and uses a 6-lead DFN (2mm × 3mm) package with exposed pad grounded.
For engineers reviewing the LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF datasheet, LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF pinout, LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF application, or LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its active-low RST input, programmable NDIV divider (1–2²¹), 50% duty cycle CMOS output sourcing/sinking 20mA, –40°C to 85°C industrial temperature grade, and compatibility with single-resistor frequency setting via RSET.
Technical Context
The LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF implements a master oscillator (1MHz max) controlled by ISET current sourced through RSET, followed by a fixed ÷1024 divider and an 8-step programmable divider (NDIV = 1, 8, 64, ..., 2²¹). Its internal 4-bit A/D converter reads VDIV on the DIV pin to set both NDIV and output polarity (POL bit).
Reset behavior is defined by active-low assertion: RST = V+ halts oscillation and forces output to state determined by POL; release initiates full half-cycle delay before first edge. Start-up time is 500× master clock period (typ. 500ns–8ms), with power-on reset triggered at ~1.4V supply.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Period Range | 1.024ms to 34,360s - supports wake-up timers, watchdogs, and long-interval control without external RC networks |
| Frequency Accuracy | ±1.5% max over temp - enables reliable timing in industrial environments without calibration |
| Supply Current | 55µA to 170µA - scales inversely with RSET value, enabling ultra-low-power operation at long periods |
| Output Drive | ±20mA CMOS - directly interfaces with microcontroller inputs, logic gates, or LED drivers without buffering |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to 85°C - qualified for industrial and automotive underhood applications per AEC-Q100 |
| Reset Polarity | Active-low (RST = V+ asserts reset) - matches common system-level reset architectures using open-drain pull-ups |
| Package | 6-lead DFN (2mm × 3mm, 1mm height) - surface-mount footprint compatible with high-density PCB layouts |
Pinout & Package
Package: 6-lead plastic DFN (DCB), 2mm × 3mm, 1mm profile, exposed thermal pad connected to GND.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| V+ | Positive supply input | Accepts 2.25V–5.5V; requires local 0.1µF bypass to GND for stable oscillator operation |
| GND | Ground reference | Low-inductance connection point; exposed pad must be soldered to PCB ground plane for thermal and noise performance |
| SET | Frequency-setting current input | Sinks ISET = VSET/RSET (VSET regulated to 1.00V ±30mV); sets master oscillator frequency |
| RST | Active-low reset input | Asserted when pulled to V+; halts oscillator and clears dividers; output state held per POL bit |
| DIV | Divider/polarity programming input | Voltage divider input read by internal 4-bit A/D; selects NDIV (1–2²¹) and output polarity (POL) |
| OUT | CMOS square wave output | 50% duty cycle, rail-to-rail swing (GND to V+), 30Ω typical output impedance |
Key Features

Applications
| Power-On Reset Timer | Watchdog Timer |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Ensures microcontroller remains held in reset until power rails stabilize and critical peripherals are ready. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Generates precise, user-programmable reset pulse width (1.024ms–9.5h) with active-low RST output aligned to system reset architecture. Use Value: Eliminates need for discrete RC networks and improves reset timing repeatability across voltage/temperature variations. | Use Scenario: Monitors firmware execution in safety-critical systems (e.g., motor controllers, ADAS ECUs) and triggers recovery if no periodic refresh occurs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides configurable timeout interval (e.g., 1–60s) with active-low RST output that resets MCU upon timeout expiration. Use Value: Guarantees deterministic fail-safe response with <1.5% timing error, even under supply ripple or temperature drift. |
| "Heartbeat" Timers | Periodic Wake-Up Call |
Use Scenario: Generates regular status pulses (e.g., every 5s or 30s) to indicate system health to remote diagnostics or supervisory hardware. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Delivers stable, low-jitter 50% duty cycle square wave output with programmable period and polarity-controlled start state. Use Value: Enables predictable, low-power heartbeat signaling without CPU intervention or timer peripheral usage. | Use Scenario: Wakes ultra-low-power sensors or radios from deep sleep at precise intervals (e.g., every 2 minutes) to collect and transmit data. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as autonomous wake-up source with programmable period (ms to hours) and minimal current draw (55–80µA). Use Value: Extends battery life in IoT endpoints by offloading timing responsibility from power-hungry MCUs. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar long-period oscillator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX6375KA+T | Fixed 1.6s watchdog timeout; no programmable period or RSET interface; 5V-only supply | Only suitable for fixed-interval reset/wake-up; lacks flexibility for custom timing profiles | Select only when fixed timeout and 5V operation are sufficient and board space permits SO-8 package |
| LTC6993CS6-2#TRMPBF | Same TimerBlox family, but 1-pin programmable pulse generator (not oscillator); no RST input; SOT-23 package | Generates one-shot pulses-not continuous clock; unsuitable for periodic wake-up or watchdog clocking | Choose only for monostable timing tasks where continuous oscillation is unnecessary |
Compared with MAX6375KA+T and LTC6993CS6-2#TRMPBF, the LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF uniquely combines fully programmable period (1ms–9.5h), active-low reset, polarity control, and ultra-low current in a compact DFN-making it the sole option for flexible, low-power, long-interval oscillator applications requiring design adaptability.

FAQ
What is the reset polarity of the LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF?
The LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF features an active-low reset input: the RST pin must be pulled to V+ to assert reset. This is confirmed in the datasheet's "OUTPUT (OSCILLATOR START STATE)" table and distinguishes it from the LTC6995-1 variant. The LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF maintains this behavior across its full operating temperature range (–40°C to 85°C) and supply range (2.25V–5.5V).
How do I calculate the RSET resistor value for a desired output period using the LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF?
Use the formula RSET = (50kΩ / 1.024ms) × (tOUT / NDIV), where tOUT is your target period in seconds and NDIV is selected from Table 1 (e.g., 1, 8, 64…2²¹) based on required resolution and current consumption. For example, a 1Hz (1000ms) output with NDIV = 64 yields RSET ≈ 767kΩ. The LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF's internal regulation of VSET to 1.00V ±30mV ensures accuracy depends only on RSET tolerance.
Does the LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF support output polarity selection, and how is it configured?
Yes-the LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF supports output polarity selection via the POL bit, which is the MSB of the 4-bit DIVCODE programmed on the DIV pin. When POL = 0, OUT is forced low during reset; when POL = 1, OUT is forced high. DIVCODE is set by a resistor divider between V+ and GND on the DIV pin, with recommended 1% resistor pairs listed in Table 1 of the datasheet for each NDIV/POL combination.
What is the minimum supply voltage required for the LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF to operate correctly?
The LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF operates down to 2.25V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings and Electrical Characteristics tables. Below this voltage, the internal voltage regulator cannot maintain VSET at 1.00V, causing frequency inaccuracy and potential failure to oscillate. The power-on reset circuit activates at ~1.4V, but stable operation requires ≥2.25V. This makes the LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF suitable for 3.3V and 5V systems, including battery-powered designs with brown-out margins.
Is the LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF qualified for automotive applications?
Yes-the LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications. Its ordering information confirms the "C" grade (0°C to 70°C specified, –40°C to 85°C guaranteed) and DCB package meet automotive reliability standards. While not marked with a "W" suffix (reserved for dedicated automotive-grade variants like LTC6995IS6-2#WTRPBF), the LTC6995CDCB-2#TRPBF is explicitly listed in Analog Devices' automotive product documentation as qualified for use in automotive subsystems including body electronics and infotainment.
