LTC2960ITS8-1

Supervisors Overview

The LTC2960ITS8-1#TRMPBF is a dual-channel voltage supervisor manufactured by Analog Devices Inc., designed for monitoring two independent power rails within a compact SOT-23-8 surface-mount package. It operates across a supply voltage range of 2.5 V to 36 V, accommodating various system architectures. The device features adjustable threshold voltages for flexible configuration and provides an open-drain reset output with a fixed 200 ms delay. With a low quiescent current of 850 nA and accuracy of 1.5%, it ensures reliable supervision in space-constrained applications.

Supervisors Feature Summary

• Dual-channel monitoring capability for independent voltage supervision
• Adjustable threshold settings for customized trigger points
• Open-drain reset output with manual reset functionality
• Ultra-low quiescent current consumption for efficiency

Supervisors Applications

• Portable electronic devices requiring multi-rail power management
• Embedded systems with strict size constraints
• Battery-powered equipment needing efficient voltage supervision
• Industrial control units operating in varying temperature ranges

Supervisors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix #TRMPBF indicates tape-and-reel packaging when sourcing components. Confirm that the ITS8 designation corresponds to the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C) required for your application environment. Ensure compatibility with the 36 V maximum input rating during procurement planning to avoid overvoltage issues in higher voltage systems.

Supervisors Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-voltage supervision is necessary within a minimal footprint. Consider the adjustable thresholds if standard fixed values do not match your system's critical voltage levels. Evaluate the 200 ms reset delay against your system's startup requirements to ensure proper sequencing. The open-drain output requires external pull-up selection based on the target logic voltage levels.

Supervisors Part Context
