Wake-Up Timer with
Pushbutton Control
Description
The LTC®2956 is a micropower, wide input voltage range,
configurable wake-up timer with pushbutton control. It
periodically wakes up and turns on a connected system
to perform tasks like monitoring temperature or capturing
images. After completing the task, the LTC2956 turns the
system off to conserve power.
The wake-up timer period can be adjusted from 250ms to
39 days using configuration resistors. The system awake
time can be controlled by the input pulse at the SLEEP
pin or adjusted by the capacitor at the ONMAX pin. The
LTC2956 operates over a wide supply input range from
1.5V to 36V. The low 800nA quiescent current suits bat-
tery powered applications.
The pushbutton input allows the user to shutdown, turn
on or reset the wake-up timer. With the timer in shutdown,
the quiescent current drops to 300nA. The LTC2956 also
provides three status outputs to indicate mode transitions
and pushbutton events. Two versions are available for
applications requiring either positive or negative enable
polarities.
