The LTC695CN#PBF is a state-of-the-art microprocessor supervisory circuit designed by Linear Technology to ensure reliable operation of microprocessor (µP) systems. This compact and efficient component is essential for systems that require precise monitoring and control of the supply voltage and other vital parameters.

Key Features:

• Voltage Monitoring: The device provides accurate monitoring of the power supply voltage, ensuring that the µP and associated circuitry operate within safe voltage levels. It is capable of monitoring a 4.65V threshold, which is crucial for systems running on 5V power supplies.
• Power-On Reset: It offers a power-on reset feature that initializes the microprocessor's memory and registers to a known state upon startup or during a brownout condition, thus preventing code execution errors.
• Watchdog Timer: An integrated watchdog timer ensures that the system does not hang due to software anomalies. If the watchdog timer is not periodically reset by the µP, the LTC695CN#PBF will assert a reset signal to restart the system.
• Low Power Consumption: Designed for power-sensitive applications, this supervisory circuit operates with minimal power consumption, thus preserving battery life in portable devices.
• Manual Reset Input: The inclusion of a manual reset input allows for an external trigger to initiate a system reset, offering additional flexibility and control.

Applications:

The LTC695CN#PBF is ideal for a wide range of applications where reliable system performance is critical. These include:

• Portable/Battery-Powered Equipment
• Computers and Computer Controllers
• Intelligent Instruments
• Automotive Systems
• Industrial Control Systems

Quality and Reliability:

Linear Technology ensures that the LTC695CN#PBF supervisory circuit meets the highest quality and reliability standards. The device is available in a DIP package, designated by the #PBF suffix, which indicates lead-free ("Pb-free") manufacturing, adhering to environmental standards.

Integrating the LTC695CN#PBF into your system design will provide a safeguard against voltage anomalies, enhance system reliability, and extend product lifespan through vigilant monitoring and control features.
