TimerBlox: Long Timer, Low
Frequency Oscillator
Description
The LTC®6995 is a silicon oscillator with a programmable
period range of 1.024ms to 9.54 hours (29.1µHz to 977Hz),
specifically intended for long duration timing events. The
LTC6995 is part of the TimerBlox® family of versatile
silicon timing devices.
A single resistor, RSET , programs the LTC6995’s internal
master oscillator frequency. The output clock period
is determined by this master oscillator and an internal
frequency divider, NDIV , programmable to eight settings
from 1 to 221.
tOUT
= NDIV • RSET
50kΩ
• 1.024ms, NDIV
= 1,8,64,...,221
When oscillating, the LTC6995 generates a 50% duty
cycle square wave output. A reset function is provided
to stop the master oscillator and clear internal dividers.
Removing reset initiates a full output clock cycle which
is useful for programmable power on reset and watchdog
timer applications.
The LTC6995 has two versions of reset functionality. The
reset input is active high for the LTC6995-1 and active low
for the LTC6995-2. The polarity of the output when reset
is selectable for both versions.
