Typical applicaTion
DescripTion
Programmable Hex Voltage
Supervisor with EEPROM and
Comparator Outputs
The LT C
®
2936 is an EEPROM configurable voltage super-
visor which can simultaneously monitor up to six power
supply voltage inputs. Each voltage detector offers I
2
C
programmable overvoltage/undervoltage thresholds in
various ranges and increments and a dedicated compara
-
tor output.
Two general purpose inputs (GPI) can be configured as
programmable manual reset (MR), UV disable (UVDIS),
margin (MARG), Write Protect (WP) or auxiliary compara
-
tor (AUXC) inputs. Three general purpose pins (GPIO)
can be configured for
input or output operation. When
configured as an input, a GPIO pin can be mapped to any
other GPIO configured as output. The GPIO pins can also
be configured as ALERT or fault outputs. Faults can be
configured with programmable delay-on-release times.
Output type and polarity are also configurable.
Status and history registers log faults and can be polled
via the I
2
C interface. A fault snapshot is also backed up
in internal EEPROM. All parameters are programmable
via the I
2
C interface. Configuration EEPROM supports
autonomous operation without additional software.
