Applications Information
The closest 1% value is 301kΩ. Plugging the standard
values back into the equation for VINL yields the design
voltage for VINL:
VINL
=
(R1• VREF)
(R1+ R2)
=
(909kΩ • 2.402V)
(301kΩ + 909kΩ)
=
1.804V
At this point in the independent divider example only the
values required to set the voltage at INL have been found.
Repeat the process for the INH input by substituting the
above equations with VINH for VINL, R3 for R1, R4 for R2
and VINH = 2.0V.

Threshold Configuration
Using built-in hysteresis, the VINA thresholds are:
VIN(RISE) = RANGE • (INL + VHYS)
VIN(FALL) = RANGE • INL
Figure 3b introduces built-in hysteresis on the falling edge
because INL is pulled to ground. Similarly, a two-resistor
network, R3 and R4, is used to set the voltage on INH using:
R4 = VREF – 1
R3 VINH
Using built-in hysteresis the VIN thresholds are:
VIN(FALL) = RANGE • INH
VIN(FALL) = RANGE • (INH – VHYS)
Consider VINH = 2V with built-in hysteresis activated on
the falling edge. For 10x range, 1.1% falling hysteresis is
obtained. If a larger percentage of hysteresis is desired then
VINH is alternatively set to 0.5V and the range is selected
to be 40x to obtain the same VIN threshold but with 4.4%
falling hysteresis. The amount of built-in hysteresis is
scaled according to Table 2. If more hysteresis is needed
then it is implemented in the external resistive divider as
described in the Threshold Configuration section.
Using Built-In Hysteresis
The LTC2965 has the capability of simplifying the threshold
configuration such that only two resistors are required.
The device pins can be configured to select a built-in hys-
teresis voltage, VHYS, which can be applied to either the
rising or falling threshold depending on whether the INH
or INL pin is grounded. Note that the hysteresis voltage
at each range setting remains at a fixed value. Figure 3
introduces examples of each configuration. For example,
if INH is biased from an external divider and the INL pin is
grounded, then hysteresis is enabled on the low or falling
threshold. The low threshold is then –VHYS relative to the
high threshold determined by INH. Figure 3a introduces
built-in hysteresis on the rising edge because INH is pulled
to ground. A two-resistor network, R1 and R2, is used to
set the voltage on INL using:
