DESCRIPTION
Confi gurable Six Supply
Monitor with Adjustable Reset
Timer and Supply Tolerance
The LTC
®
2932 is a confi gurable supply monitor for sys-
tems 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 digitally
confi gurable to 5%, 7.5%, 10%, or 12.5% below the
nominal operating voltage. The LTC2932 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 timeout period is adjustable using an external
capacitor. The RST output is guaranteed to be in the
correct state for VCC down to 1V and may be disabled
during supply margin testing. Each status output has a
weak internal pull-up and may be externally pulled up to
an external voltage.
The 52μA supply current makes the LTC2932 ideal for
power conscious systems and the part may be confi gured
to monitor less than six inputs.

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 (VCC).
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 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.

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 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 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 confi gured delay
time after all voltage inputs are above threshold. May be
pulled greater than V2 using external pull-up. Leave open
if unused.
T0 (Pin 9): Supply Tolerance Selection Input. Used in
conjunction with T1 (Pin 11). See Applications Informa-
tion for tolerance selection chart (Table 2). Choose from
5%, 7.5%, 10% or 12.5%.
RDIS (Pin 10): Digital Input for RST Disable. A low input
on this pin forces RST to V2 (or to the pull-up voltage).
Useful for determining supply margins without issuing a
reset. A weak internal pull-up allows pin to be left open
for normal monitor operation.
T1 (Pin 11): Supply Tolerance Selection Input. Used in
conjunction with T0 (Pin 9). See Applications Information
for tolerance selection chart (Table 2). Choose from 5%,
7.5%, 10% or 12.5%.
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 confi gured 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 reset threshold. May be pulled greater than V2
using external pull-up. Leave open if unused.
COMP2 (Pin 18): Comparator Output 2. Real-time logic
output with weak 6μA pull-up to V2. Pulls high when V2
is above reset threshold. May be pulled greater than V2
using external pull-up. Leave open if unused.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Supply Monitoring
The LTC2932 is a low power, high accuracy confi gurable
six supply monitoring circuit with six real-time monitor
outputs, a common reset output, a reset disable function
and selectable supply thresholds. An external capacitor
sets the reset timeout period. 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 LTC2932 asserts the reset and compara-
tor outputs during power-up, power-down and brownout
conditions on any one of the voltage inputs.
Power-Up
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 confi gured. Once the voltage
thresholds are set, if any of the supply monitor inputs is
below its confi gured 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).
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 specifi ed band; the LTC2932
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 speci-
ed tolerance band.
The LTC2932 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
4.675V. The threshold is guaranteed to lie in the band be-
tween 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.
A less accurate supervisor increases the required system
voltage margin and increases the probability of system
malfunction. The LTC2932’s ±1.5% specifi cation improves
the reliability of the system over supervisors with wider
threshold tolerances.
Monitor Confi guration and Tolerance Selection
Select the LTC2932 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 specifi es
optimum VPG/VREF ratios (± 0.01), when confi guring with
a ratiometric DAC.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
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 confi gured to the desired input combination. The
comparators are enabled and supply monitoring begins.
Do not add capacitance to the VPG pin.
The two supply tolerance inputs, T0 and T1, confi gure the
global supply tolerance. Larger tolerances provide more
headroom by lowering the trip thresholds. Table 2 lists the
input combinations for each of the tolerance modes.

LTC2932

2932fb
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Although all six supply monitor comparators have built-
in 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 LTC2932 will enter the 150μs setup period
when VCC rises above 2.4V (max).
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
2MΩ=500 pF / ms
[]
•t
RST
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.
Reset Disable
Under conventional operation, RST and COMPn will go low
when Vn is below its threshold. At any time, the RDIS pin
can be pulled low, overriding the reset operation and forcing
the RST pin high. This feature is useful when determining
supply margins under processor control since the reset
command will not be invoked. The RDIS pin is connected
to a weak internal pull-up to VCC (10μA typical), allowing
the pin to be left open if unused.
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
external resistive divider, connected between the positive
voltage being sensed and ground, is connected to the high
impedance, adjustable inputs (V3, V4, V5, V6). Calculate
the trip voltage from:
VTRIP =0.5V 1+R3
R4
In the negative adjustable mode, the reference level on the
V4 comparator is connected to ground (Figure 4). The tap
point on an external resistive divider, connected between
the negative voltage being sensed and the VREF pin, is
connected to the high impedance adjustable input (V4).
VREF provides the necessary level shift required to operate
at ground. The negative trip voltage is calculated from:
VTRIP =−VREF R3
R4
; VREF = 1.210V Nominal
T0, T1 Low (5% Tolerance Mode)
Once the resistor divider is set in the 5% tolerance mode,
there is no need to change the divider for the other toler-
ance modes (7.5%, 10%, 12.5%) because VREF is scaled
accordingly, moving the trip point in –2.5% increments.
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
1mA =1.210kΩ
Tables 3 and 4 offer suggested 1% resistor values for vari-
ous positive and negative supply adjustable applications
assuming 5% monitor thresholds.
LTC2932

2932fb
Six Supply Monitor with Hysteresis
The LTC2932 monitors six supply voltages in Figure 5 and
is confi gured to mode 6 (see Table 1). Supply tolerance
inputs T0 and T1 are tied to RST. As the LTC2932 powers
up, RST is low, which keeps the tolerance at 5%. After all
six inputs exceed their 5% threshold voltages, RST pulls
high. This changes the supply tolerance to 12.5%. If any of
the input voltages drop below the 12.5% threshold level,
reset is asserted. The push button on V6 also allows for
a manual reset when pressed.
Five Supply Power-up Sequencer
In Figure 6, the LTC2932’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.
The LTC2932 is confi gured to mode 13 and a 12.5%
threshold (see Tables 1 and 2). When the threshold is
reached on V1, COMP1 pulls high. COMP1 then enables
the 3.3V converter fi rst. 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
ve supplies and the DONE and RST outputs.
If the KILL input on the LTC2950-1 does not receive a logic
high from the RST output within 512ms of initial power-up,
EN pulls low and the LTM4600 is powered down.
In the event that the external 12V supply drops below 9.6V,
COMP6 and RST pull low. The LTC2950-1 then receives
a logic low on the KILL input, which powers down the
LTM4600 and the sequencing circuit.
