The LTC®2931 is a configurable supply monitor for
systems with up to six supply voltages. One of 16 preset or
adjustable voltage monitor combinations can be selected
using an external resistive divider connected to the mode
select pin. The preset voltage thresholds are accurate
to ±1.5% over temperature. The LTC2931 also features
adjustable inputs with a 0.5V nominal threshold. All six
open-drain voltage comparator outputs are connected to
separate pins for individual supply monitoring.
The reset and watchdog timeout periods 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 VCC down to 1V. Each status output has
a weak internal pull-up and may be externally pulled up
to a user defined voltage.

Note 4: 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 5: The output pins RST, WDO, and COMPn have diode protected internal
pull-ups to V2 of typically 6μA. However, external pull-up resistors may be used
when faster rise times are required or for VOH voltages greater than V2.

PIN FUNCTIONS
COMP5 (Pin 1): Comparator Output 5. Real-time logic
output with weak 6μA pull-up to V2. Pulls high when V5
is above reset threshold. May be pulled greater than V2
using external pull-up. Leave open if unused.
V5 (Pin 2): Adjustable Voltage Input 5. High impedance
comparator input with 0.5V typical threshold. See
Applications Information for details. Tie to V1 if unused.
COMP3 (Pin 3): Comparator Output 3. Real-time logic
output with weak 6μA pull-up to V2. Pulls high when V3
is above its reset threshold. May be pulled greater than
V2 using external pull-up. Leave open if unused.
COMP1 (Pin 4): Comparator Output 1. Real-time logic
output with weak 6μA pull-up to V2. Pulls high when V1
is above its reset threshold. May be pulled greater than
V2 using external pull-up. Leave open if unused.
V3 (Pin 5): Voltage Input 3. Select from 2.5V, 1.8V, 1.5V,
or ADJ. See Applications Information for details. Tie to
V1 if unused.
V1 (Pin 6): Voltage Input 1. Select from 5V or 3.3V. See
Applications Information for details. The greater of V1 or
V2 is also VCC for the device. Bypass this pin to ground
with a 0.1μF (or greater) capacitor.
CRT (Pin 7): Reset Timeout Capacitor. Attach an external
capacitor (CRT) to GND to set a reset timeout of 2ms/nF.
Leaving the pin open generates a minimum delay of
approximately 25μs. A 47nF capacitor generates a 94ms
reset delay time.
RST (Pin 8): Reset Output. Logic output with weak 6μA
pull-up to V2. Pulls low when any voltage input is below
the reset threshold and held low for the configured delay
time after all voltage inputs are above threshold. May be
pulled greater than V2 using external pull-up. Leave open
if unused.
WDO (Pin 9): Watchdog Output. Logic output with weak
6μA pull-up to V2. May be pulled greater than V2 using
external pull-up. The watchdog timer is enabled when RST
is high. The watchdog output pulls low if the watchdog timer
times out and remains low for one reset timeout period.
The watchdog output is cleared with a WDI transition or
anytime RST is low.The output will toggle between high
and low as long as the watchdog and reset timers are
allowed to time out. Leave open if unused.
WDI (Pin 10): Watchdog Input. A logic input whose rising
or falling edge must occur on this pin (while RST is high)
within the selected watchdog time-out period, prohibiting
a high-to-low transition on the WDO pin. The capacitor
attached to the CWT pin sets the watchdog time-out period.
A rising or falling edge on the WDI pin clears the voltage
on the CWT capacitor, preventing WDO from going low. Tie
WDI to V1 or GND if unused. Tie CWT to GND to disable
the watchdog function.
CWT (Pin 11): Watchdog Timeout Capacitor. Attach
a capacitor (CWT) between CWT and GND to set a
watchdog time-out period of 20ms/nF. Leaving the pin open
generates a minimum timeout of approximately 200μs.
A 47nF capacitor generates a 940ms watchdog time-out
period. Tie CWT to GND to disable the watchdog function.
GND (Pin 12): Ground.
VPG (Pin 13): Threshold Select Input. Connect to an
external 1% resistive divider between VREF and GND to
select 1 of 16 combinations and/or ±adjustable voltage
thresholds (See Table 1). Do not add capacitance on the
VPG pin.
VREF (Pin 14): Buffered Reference Voltage Output. A
1.210V nominal reference used for the mode selection
voltage (VPG) and for the offset of negative adjustable
applications. The buffered reference can source and sink
up to 1mA. The reference can drive a bypass capacitor of
up to 1000pF without oscillation.
V4 (Pin 15): Voltage Input 4. Select from 1.8V, 1.5V, ADJ
or –ADJ. See Applications Information for details. Tie to
V1 if unused and configured for positive voltage.
V2 (Pin 16): Voltage Input 2. Select from 3.3V, 3V or 2.5V.
See Applications Information for details. The greater of V1,
V2 is also VCC for the device. Bypass this pin to ground
with a 0.1μF (or greater) capacitor. All status outputs are
weakly pulled up to V2.
COMP4 (Pin 17): Comparator Output 4. Real-time logic
output with weak 6μA pull-up to V2. Pulls high when V4
is above its reset threshold. May be pulled greater than
V2 using external pull-up. Leave open if unused.

COMP6 (Pin 20): Comparator Output 6. Real-time logic
output with weak 6μA pull-up to V2. Pulls high when V6
is above its reset threshold. May be pulled greater than
V2 using external pull-up. Leave open if unused.
V6 (Pin 19): Adjustable Voltage Input 6. High impedance
comparator input with 0.5V typical threshold. See
Applications Information for details. Tie to V1 if unused.

Supply Monitoring
The LTC2931 is a low power, high accuracy configurable
six supply monitoring circuit with six real-time monitor
outputs, a common reset output and a watchdog timer.
External capacitors set the reset and watchdog timeout
periods. An external resistive divider between VREF, VPG
and GND selects 1 of 16 possible input voltage monitor
combinations. All six voltage inputs must be above their
predetermined thresholds for the reset not to be activated.
The LTC2931 asserts the reset and comparator outputs
during power-up, power-down and brownout conditions
on any one of the voltage inputs.

Power-Up
Figure 1. 1.5% Threshold Accuracy Improves System Reliability
The greater of V1 and V2 serves as the internal supply
voltage (VCC). On power-up, VCC powers the drive circuits
for the RST pin. This ensures that the RST output will be
low as soon as either V1 or V2 reaches 1V. The RST output
remains low until the part is configured. Once voltage
thresholds are set, if any of the supply monitor inputs is
below its configured threshold, RST will be a logic low.
Once all the monitor inputs rise above their thresholds,
an internal timer is started and RST is released after the
delay time. If VCC < (V3 – 1.0V) and VCC < 2.4V, the V3
input impedance will be low (10kΩ typical).
4.675V. The threshold is guaranteed to lie in the band
between 4.750V and 4.600V over temperature. The
powered system must work reliably down to the low end
of the threshold band, or risk malfunction before a reset
signal is properly issued.
Threshold Accuracy
Consider a 5V system with ±5% tolerance. The 5V supply
may vary between 4.75V to 5.25V. System ICs powered
by this supply must operate reliably within this band (and
a little more as explained below). A perfectly accurate
supervisor for this supply generates a reset at exactly
4.75V, however no supervisor is this perfect. The actual
reset threshold of a supervisor varies over a specified band;
the LTC2931 varies ±1.5% around its nominal threshold
voltage (see Figure 1) over temperature.
The reset threshold band and the power supply tolerance
bands should not overlap. This prevents false or nuisance
resets when the power supply is actually within its specified tolerance band.
The LTC2931 has a ±1.5% reset threshold accuracy, so a
“5%” threshold is typically set to 6.5% below the nominal
input voltage. Therefore, a typical 5V, “5%” threshold is
A less accurate supervisor increases the required system
voltage margin and increases the probability of system
malfunction. The LTC2931 ±1.5% specification improves
the reliability of the system over supervisors with wider
threshold tolerances.
Monitor Configuration
Select the LTC2931 input voltage combination by placing
the recommended resistive divider from VREF to GND
and connecting the tap point to VPG, as shown in Figure
2. Table 1 offers recommended 1% resistor values for
each of the 16 modes. The last column in Table 1 specifies
optimum VPG/VREF ratios (± 0.01), when configuring with
a ratiometric DAC.
At power-up, once V1 or V2 reaches 2.4V, the monitor
enters a setup period of approximately 150μs. During the
setup time, the voltage on the VPG pin is sampled and
the monitor is configured to the desired input combinaLTC2931

Using The Adjustable Thresholds
The reference inputs on the V3 and/or V4 comparators
are set to 0.5V when the positive adjustable modes are
selected (Figure 3). The reference inputs on the V5 and V6
comparators are always set to 0.5V. The tap point on an

VREF provides the necessary level shift required to operate
at ground. The negative trip voltage is calculated from:

In a negative adjustable application, the minimum value for
R4 is limited by the sourcing capability of VREF (±1mA).
With no other load on VREF, R4 (minimum) is:
1.210V
=1.210kΩ
1mA
Tables 2 and 3 offer suggested 1% resistor values for
various positive and negative supply adjustable
applications assuming 5% monitor thresholds.
Although all six supply monitor comparators have builtin glitch immunity, bypass capacitors on V1 and V2 are
recommended because the greater of V1 or V2 is also the
VCC for the device. Filter capacitors on the V3, V4, V5 and
V6 inputs are allowed.
Power-Down
On power-down, once any of the monitor inputs drops
below its threshold, RST is held at a logic low. A logic low
of 0.4V is guaranteed until both V1 and V2 drop below
1V. If the bandgap reference becomes invalid (VCC < 2V
typical), the LTC2931 will enter the 150μs setup period
when VCC rises above 2.4V max.
Watchdog Timer
The watchdog circuit monitors a microprocessor’s (μP)
activity. The μP is required to change the logic state of the
WDI pin on a periodic basis in order to clear the watchdog
timer. Whenever RST is low, the watchdog timer is cleared
and WDO is set high. The watchdog timer starts when RST
goes high. Subsequent edges received on the WDI pin
clear the watchdog timer. The watchdog timer continues
to run until it times out. Once it times out, internal circuitry
brings the WDO pin low. WDO remains low for one reset
timeout period unless it is cleared by another edge on the
WDI pin or RST goes low. WDO toggles between high and
low as long as the watchdog and reset timers are allowed
to time out repeatedly.
To disable the watchdog timer, simply ground the CWT
pin (Pin 11). With CWT held at ground, any reset event
forces WDO high indefinitely. It is safe to leave the WDI
pin unconnected because the weak internal pull-up (10μA
typical) pulls WDI high. Tying WDI to V1 or ground is also
allowed, but grounding the WDI pin forces the pull-up
current to be drawn continuously.
Selecting the Reset Timing Capacitor
The reset timeout period is adjustable in order to
accommodate a variety of microprocessor applications.
The reset timeout period, tRST, is adjusted by connecting
a capacitor, CRT, between the CRT pin and ground. The
value of this capacitor is determined by:
CRT =
tRST
= 500 ⎡⎣pF / ms⎤⎦ • tRST
2MΩ
Leaving the CRT pin unconnected generates a minimum
reset timeout of approximately 25μs. Maximum reset
timeout is limited by the largest available low leakage
capacitor. The accuracy of the timeout period is affected
by capacitor leakage (the nominal charging current is 2μA)
and capacitor tolerance. A low leakage ceramic capacitor
is recommended.
Selecting The Watchdog Timing Capacitor
The watchdog timeout period is adjustable and can be
optimized for software execution. The watchdog timeout
period, tWD, is adjusted by connecting a capacitor, CWT,
between the CWT pin and ground. The value of this
capacitor is determined by:
CWT =
tWD
= 50 ⎡⎣pF / ms⎤⎦ • tWD
20MΩ
Leaving the CWT pin unconnected generates a minimum
watchdog timeout of approximately 200μs. Maximum
watchdog timeout is limited by the largest available low
leakage capacitor. The accuracy of the timeout period is
affected by capacitor leakage (the nominal charging current
is 2μA) and capacitor tolerance. A low leakage ceramic
capacitor is recommended.

LTC2931
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Supply and Temperature Monitor
Five Supply Power-up Sequencer
Figure 5 illustrates how to configure the LTC2931 to
monitor temperature. Temperature is sensed by a
thermistor, RNTC, as part of a voltage divider driving
adjustable input V6. Output COMP6 goes low when the
temperature is higher than the trip point, and is fed back
through RHYST to provide hysteresis.
In Figure 6, the LTC2931’s real-time COMP outputs are
used to enable DC/DC converters sequentially. The system
is powered by a 12V source.
The system is started when the push-button is pressed and
the LTC2950-1 brings the RUN pin of the LTM4600 high.
Subsequently, the LTM4600 generates a 5V output which
applies power to each of the 4 DC/DC converters.
Assume a thermistor (RNTC) with values RHOT at the upper threshold and RCOLD at the lower threshold. Minimize
errors arising from V6 input current (15nA maximum)
by choosing RCOLD ≤ 100kΩ, and to limit the loading
on VREF, choose RHOT ≥ 1kΩ. RBIAS and RHYST are
calculated from:
The LTC2931 is configured to mode 13 (see Table 1). When
the threshold is reached on V1, COMP1 pulls high. COMP1
then enables the 3.3V converter first. When the threshold
is reached on V2, COMP2 pulls high and enables the 1.8V
converter next. When all the converters have been enabled
and are good, COMP5 pulls high. RST pulls high 9.4ms
after COMP5. Figure 7 shows the power-up sequence of
the five supplies and the DONE and RST outputs.
RBIAS = (RHOT/VRTA) • (VREF – VRTA) = 1.42 • RHOT
RHYST =
V1 (RCOLD • RHOT )
•
VRTA (RCOLD−RHOT )
If the KILL input on the LTC2950-1 does not receive a logic
high within 512ms of initial power-up, EN pulls low and
the LTM4600 is powered down.
V1 is the nominal operating voltage at input V1, VREF =
1.210V, VRTA = 0.5V, and RPU < RHYST. The closest 1%
value was chosen for RHYST.
In the event that the external 12V supply drops below
9.6V, COMP6 and RST will pull low. The LTC2950-1 then
receives a logic low on the KILL input, which powers down
the LTM4600 and the sequencing circuit.
In Figure 5, the trip points are 115°C with RHOT = 11.1kΩ
(COMP6 goes low) and 100°C with RCOLD = 18.5kΩ
(COMP6 goes high). A reset is generated in the event of
an over-temperature condition. COMP6 (Temp Good) and
COMP5 (Power Good) distinguish over-temperature and
undervoltage faults.
