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.

NDIV

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.
