LTC1998
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The calculation of the resistor values R1, R2 and R3 is
quite straightforward and similar to the procedure outlined
in the previous paragraph.
Choose a value for the sum of R1 + R2 + R3 as well as the
values for low battery threshold and hysteresis.
Solve for resistor R1:
Solve for the sum of
then solve for R2 and R3.
Example: A system needs to detect a low battery
voltage of 3V (V
(V
(R1 + R2 + R3) = 1M.
R1 = 539k, R1 + R2 = 667k, R2 = 128k, R3 = 333k.
Choose the closest 1% values, that is 536k, 332k, 127k.
Figure 4 graphically shows the function of the LTC1998 as
described above.

VERSATILE OUTPUT DRIVER
V
The LTC1998 uses a CMOS push-pull output stage to drive
the low battery output signal. This output pin (BATTLO)
has a separate supply pin, (V
provide an output voltage rail matching the V
microprocessors. The V
age lower than the voltage at the BATT pin. The V
pin may also be tied to a voltage higher than V
series resistor greater than 10k. The output will then act
as an open-drain device.
In a given application, if it is possible for BATTLO to be
shorted to GND or a supply, a series resistor should be
added to limit the short-circuit current to 5mA.
