Product details
Overview
LTC699CN8#PBF from Analog Devices (formerly Linear Technology) is a microprocessor supervisory circuit with integrated reset generator and watchdog timer. It provides guaranteed reset assertion down to VCC = 1V, 4.65V precision voltage monitoring, 200ms reset time delay, and 1.6s watchdog timeout - all in an 8-lead SOIC package for embedded power management in industrial controllers and automotive ECUs.
For engineers reviewing the LTC699CN8#PBF datasheet, LTC699CN8#PBF pinout, LTC699CN8#PBF application, or LTC699CN8#PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its open-drain RESET output, WDI three-level input behavior, temperature-stable 40mV hysteresis, PSRR performance (1 ms/V reset timing, 8 ms/V watchdog), and guaranteed low-VCC reset hold capability critical for safe microprocessor shutdown.
Technical Context
The LTC699CN8#PBF integrates a bandgap-referenced precision comparator and a monostable watchdog timer on a single die. Its reset threshold is fixed at 4.65V (±5%) with 40mV hysteresis to reject supply transients, and it asserts RESET active-low when VCC drops below threshold or when WDI remains static beyond 1.6s.
RESET is an open-drain output requiring external pull-up; it remains valid down to VCC = 1V with ≤200mV sink voltage at 10µA. The WDI pin supports high/low/static disable modes and resets the watchdog timer on every logic transition - no clock source or external components are needed beyond a 0.1µF VCC bypass capacitor.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Reset Threshold | 4.65V typical; ensures reliable µP reset at nominal +5V rail with ±5% tolerance |
| Reset Active Time | 200ms typical; holds µP in reset long enough for full power stabilization post-power-up |
| Watchdog Timeout | 1.6s typical; provides sufficient margin for firmware service without false triggers |
| Supply Current | 1.5mA max; enables low-power operation in always-on supervisory applications |
| RESET Output Type | Open-drain; allows flexible pull-up voltage selection and wired-OR reset bus implementation |
| VCC Min for RESET Hold | 1V; guarantees stable µP shutdown state even during deep brownout conditions |
| PSRR (Reset Timing) | 1 ms/V; limits reset pulse jitter under supply ripple, improving system robustness |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-lead plastic SOIC (S8), 3.9mm × 4.9mm body, 1.27mm pitch, RoHS-compliant, JEDEC MS-012AC.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GND) | Ground reference | Primary return path for internal comparators and timer; must be low-impedance |
| 2 (VCC) | Power supply input | +3.0V to +5.5V supply; requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor placed adjacent to pin |
| 3 (VCC) | Power supply input | Dual VCC connection improves noise immunity and current distribution across die |
| 4 (NC) | No connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating or tied to GND per layout guidelines |
| 5 (GND) | Ground reference | Secondary ground pin; reduces ground bounce and improves reset timing accuracy |
| 6 (GND) | Ground reference | Third ground pin; enhances thermal dissipation and EMI suppression in high-noise environments |
| 7 (WDI) | Watchdog input | Three-level input: high/low enables watchdog; floating disables it; transitions reset timeout counter |
| 8 (RESET) | Open-drain reset output | Active-low signal; sinks up to 25mA; requires external pull-up to host logic voltage |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guaranteed reset at VCC = 1V | Ensures µP remains held in known state during severe brownout, preventing undefined execution |
| 40mV reset threshold hysteresis | Rejects short-duration VCC glitches without spurious reset assertion |
| Zero external timing components | Eliminates BOM cost and layout area for RC networks; simplifies design validation |
| Three-level WDI interface | Enables watchdog enable/disable via pin state (high/low/floating), reducing GPIO overhead |
| Specified over 0°C to 70°C | Validated for commercial temperature range; suitable for non-automotive industrial deployments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar microprocessor supervisory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX699CSA+ | Fixed 4.65V reset threshold; no watchdog timer; 200ms reset timeout; SO-8 package | Lacks watchdog functionality; suitable only for basic reset-only use cases | Select when watchdog is unnecessary and legacy MAX699 footprint compatibility is required |
| TPS3808G33DBVR | Adjustable reset threshold (0.4–5.0V); 200ms min reset delay; no integrated watchdog; SOT-23-6 | Smaller package and adjustable threshold but no WDI function; requires external timing resistor | Select for space-constrained designs needing threshold flexibility but no watchdog capability |
Compared with MAX699CSA+ and TPS3808G33DBVR, the LTC699CN8#PBF uniquely combines precision reset monitoring with a fully integrated, zero-component watchdog timer - making it the only option among the three that satisfies dual-supervision requirements without additional ICs or passive components.

FAQ
What is the guaranteed minimum VCC level at which LTC699CN8#PBF maintains valid RESET assertion?
The LTC699CN8#PBF guarantees RESET remains asserted active-low down to VCC = 1V, with a maximum sink voltage of 200mV at 10µA load. This ensures the microprocessor stays in a defined reset state during deep brownout conditions - a key differentiator versus standard supervisors that release reset above 2.5V. This behavior is verified across the full 0°C to 70°C operating range.
Does LTC699CN8#PBF require external components to configure its reset threshold or watchdog timeout?
No, the LTC699CN8#PBF requires zero external components for either function: its 4.65V reset threshold and 1.6s watchdog timeout are factory-laser-trimmed and internally fixed. Only a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor on VCC is recommended for noise immunity. Unlike adjustable supervisors, this eliminates calibration uncertainty, BOM items, and layout sensitivity - directly supporting the "minimum external component count" design goal stated in its official features.
How does the WDI pin on LTC699CN8#PBF behave when left unconnected?
When the WDI pin of the LTC699CN8#PBF is left floating (unconnected), the internal watchdog timer is automatically disabled - RESET will not assert due to watchdog timeout. This three-level input behavior (high = enabled, low = enabled, floating = disabled) provides hardware-selectable watchdog control without requiring firmware configuration or pull resistors, simplifying system bring-up and failure mode analysis.
What is the purpose of having three GND pins and two VCC pins on the LTC699CN8#PBF SOIC package?
The LTC699CN8#PBF uses multiple GND and VCC pins to reduce power supply impedance, minimize ground bounce during RESET transitions, and improve noise rejection in electrically noisy environments. Dual VCC pins distribute supply current and lower inductance; triple GND pins provide low-impedance return paths for internal comparators and timer circuits - directly supporting its specified 10µs response time and stable operation under fast-rail transients.
Is LTC699CN8#PBF pin-compatible with MAX699CSA+?
No, LTC699CN8#PBF is not pin-compatible with MAX699CSA+. While both are SO-8 devices, their pinouts differ: LTC699CN8#PBF assigns pins 1/5/6 to GND, pins 2/3 to VCC, pin 4 to NC, pin 7 to WDI, and pin 8 to RESET; MAX699CSA+ uses pin 1 for RESET, pin 2 for VCC, pin 3 for GND, and pin 4 for WDI. Board redesign is required for substitution - though both share functional overlap in reset monitoring, only LTC699CN8#PBF integrates watchdog timing.
