The LTC
®
2901 is a programmable supply monitor for
systems with up to four supply voltages. One of 16 preset
or adjustable voltage monitor combinations can be se-
lected using an external resistor divider connected to the
program pin. The preset voltage thresholds are accurate
to ±1.5% over temperature. All four voltage comparator
outputs are connected to separate pins for individual
supply monitoring.
The reset and watchdog delay times are adjustable using
external capacitors. Tight voltage threshold accuracy and
glitch immunity ensure reliable reset operation without
false triggering. The RST output is guaranteed to be in the
correct state for V
CC
down to 1V. The LTC2901-1/
LTC2901-3
features an open-drain RST output, while the
LTC2901-2/
LTC2901-4
has a push-pull RST output.
The 43μA supply current makes the LTC2901 ideal for
power conscious systems and it may be configured to
monitor less than four inputs. The parts are available in
the 16-lead narrow SSOP package.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may
cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute Maximum
Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and
lifetime.
Note 2: All currents into pins are positive, all voltages are referenced to GND
unless otherwise noted.
Note 3: The greater of V1, V2 is the internal supply voltage (V
CC
).
Note 4: 10% thresholds apply to the LTC2901-3/LTC2901-4 only when the
TOL pin is set to a logic high.
Note 5: Under static no-fault conditions, V1 will necessarily supply quiescent
current. If at any time V2 is larger than V1, V2 must be capable of supplying
the quiescent current, programming (transient) current and reference load
current.
Note 6: The output pins RST, WDO and COMPX have internal pull-ups to V2
of typically 6μA. However, external pull-up resistors may be used when faster
rise times are required or for V
OH
voltages greater than V2.
Note 7: The push-pull RST output pin on the LTC2901-2/LTC2901-4 is
actively
pulled up to V2.
