Figure 8. Monitoring Unregulated DC Supply with the

Figure 9. Monitoring Regulated DC Supply with the
LTC692/LT693 Power-Fail Comparator
Example 1: The circuit in Figure 8 demonstrates the use
of the power-fail comparator to monitor the unregulated
power supply input. Assuming the the rate of decay of the
supply input V
IN
is 100mV/ms and the total time to execute
a shutdown procedure is 8ms. Also, the noise of V
IN
is
200mV. With these assumptions in mind, we can reason-
ably set V
L
= 7.25V which is 1.25V greater than the sum of
maximum reset voltage threshold and the dropout voltage
of LT
®
1086-5 (4.5V + 1.5V) and V

Choose R3 = 300k and R1 = 51k. Also select R4 = 10k
which is much smaller than R3.

HYSTERESIS
= 8.151V – 7.32V = 831mV
The 10.7ms allows enough time to execute shutdown pro-
cedure for microprocessor and 831mV of hysteresis would
prevent PFO from going low due to the noise of V
IN
.
