Product Overview: LTC694CS8#PBF

The LTC694CS8#PBF is a high-performance, microprocessor supervisory circuit manufactured by Linear Technology, now part of Analog Devices. This device is designed to monitor power supplies in microprocessor and digital systems, providing a precise, low voltage reference and a comparator to track the status of the power supply voltage (Vcc).

Key Features

• Precision Voltage Monitor: The LTC694CS8#PBF features a 4.65V precision voltage monitor tailored for 5V systems. This ensures that the microprocessor has a stable voltage supply and is protected from undervoltage conditions.
• Power Supply Glitch Immunity: This device maintains reset output until Vcc is within specifications for reliable operation, even during power supply fluctuations, ensuring the system is reset properly during power-up, power-down, and brownout conditions.
• Low Power Consumption: The LTC694CS8#PBF is optimized for low power consumption, an essential feature for battery-operated and energy-efficient systems.
• 200ms Minimum Power-On Reset: It provides a minimum power-on reset pulse width of 200ms, which guarantees a proper system reset before normal operation commences.
• Manual Reset Input: The inclusion of a manual reset input allows for a system reset to be triggered with an external button or signal, providing additional system control.
• Wide Operating Temperature Range: With an operating temperature range from 0°C to 70°C, this device can be used in various environments and applications.

Applications

The LTC694CS8#PBF is suitable for a wide range of applications where reliable system operation and monitoring are critical. This includes but is not limited to:

• Computers and Servers
• Embedded Systems
• Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment
• Industrial Control Systems
• Telecommunications Systems

Package and Availability

The LTC694CS8#PBF comes in an 8-lead SOIC package, which is compact and suitable for space-constrained applications. It is available for purchase from various distributors and directly from Analog Devices, ensuring easy integration into your design and procurement processes.
