TimerBlox: Delay Block/ Debouncer

DESCRIPTION

The LTC�6994 is a programmable delay block with a range of 1�s to 33.6 seconds. The LTC6994 is part of the TimerBlox� family of versatile silicon timing devices.

A single resistor, RSET, programs an internal master oscillator frequency, setting the LTC6994's time base. The
input-to-output delay is determined by this master oscil-
lator and an internal clock divider, NDIV, programmable to eight settings from 1 to 221:

tDELAY

=

NDIV � RSET 50k

� 1�s, NDIV

=

1, 8, 64,...,221

The output (OUT) follows the input (IN) after delaying the rising and/or falling transitions. The LTC6994-1 will delay the rising or falling edge. The LTC6994-2 will delay both transitions, and adds the option to invert the output.

Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: The LTC6994C is guaranteed functional over the operating temperature range of �40�C to 85�C.
Note 3: The LTC6994C is guaranteed to meet specified performance from 0�C to 70�C. The LTC6994C is designed, characterized and expected to meet specified performance from �40�C to 85�C but it is not tested or QA sampled at these temperatures. The LTC6994I is guaranteed to meet specified performance from �40�C to 85�C. The LTC6994H is guaranteed to meet specified performance from �40�C to 125�C. The LTC6994MP is guaranteed to meet specified performance from �55�C to 125�C.
Note 4: Delay accuracy is defined as the deviation from the tDELAY equation, assuming RSET is used to program the delay.

Note 5: See Operation section, Table 1 and Figure 2 for a full explanation of how the DIV pin voltage selects the value of DIVCODE.
Note 6: The IN pin has hysteresis to accommodate slow rising or falling signals. The threshold voltages are proportional to V+. Typical values can be estimated at any supply voltage using:
VIN(RISING)  0.55 � V+ + 185mV and VIN(FALLING)  0.48 � V+ � 155mV Note 7: To conform to the Logic IC Standard, current out of a pin is arbitrarily given a negative value.
Note 8: Output rise and fall times are measured between the 10% and the 90% power supply levels with 5pF output load. These specifications are based on characterization.
Note 9: Settling time is the amount of time required for the output to settle within �1% of the final delay after a 0.5� or 2� change in ISET. Note 10: Jitter is the ratio of the deviation of the programmed delay to the mean of the delay. This specification is based on characterization and is not 100% tested.

PIN FUNCTIONS (DCB/S6)
V+ (Pin 1/Pin 5): Supply Voltage (2.25V to 5.5V). This supply should be kept free from noise and ripple. It should be bypassed directly to the GND pin with a 0.1�F capacitor.
DIV (Pin 2/Pin 4): Programmable Divider and Polarity Input. The DIV pin voltage (VDIV) is internally converted into a 4-bit result (DIVCODE). VDIV may be generated by a resistor divider between V+ and GND. Use 1% resistors to ensure an accurate result. The DIV pin and resistors should be shielded from the OUT pin or any other traces that have fast edges. Limit the capacitance on the DIV pin to less than 100pF so that VDIV settles quickly. The MSB of DIVCODE (POL) selects the delay functionality. For the LTC6994-1, POL = 0 will delay the rising transition and POL = 1 will delay the falling transition. For the LTC69942, both transitions are delayed so POL = 1 can be used to invert the output.
SET (Pin 3/Pin 3): Delay Setting Input. The voltage on the SET pin (VSET) is regulated to 1V above GND. The amount of current sourced from the SET pin (ISET) programs the master oscillator frequency. The ISET current range is 1.25�A to 20�A. The delayed output transition will be not occur if ISET drops below approximately 500nA. Once ISET increases above 500nA the delayed edge will transition.

A resistor connected between SET and GND is the most accurate way to set the delay. For best performance, use a precision metal or thin film resistor of 0.5% or better tolerance and 50ppm/�C or better temperature coefficient. For lower accuracy applications an inexpensive 1% thick film resistor may be used.
Limit the capacitance on the SET pin to less than 10pF to minimize jitter and ensure stability. Capacitance less than 100pF maintains the stability of the feedback circuit regulating the VSET voltage.
IN (Pin 4/Pin 1): Logic Input. Depending on the version and POL bit setting, rising or falling edges on IN will propagate to OUT after a programmable delay. The LTC6994-1 will delay only the rising or falling edge. The LTC6994-2 will delay both edges.
GND (Pin 5/Pin 2): Ground. Tie to a low inductance ground plane for best performance.
OUT (Pin 6/Pin 6): Output. The OUT pin swings from GND to V+ with an output resistance of approximately 30. When driving an LED or other low impedance load a series output resistor should be used to limit source/ sink current to 20mA.

OPERATION

The LTC6994 is built around a master oscillator with a 1�s
minimum period. The oscillator is controlled by the SET
pin current (ISET) and voltage (VSET), with a 1�s/50k conversion factor that is accurate to �1.7% under typical
conditions.

tMASTER

=

1�s 50k

�

VSET ISET

A feedback loop maintains VSET at 1V �30mV, leaving ISET as the primary means of controlling the input-to-output
delay. The simplest way to generate ISET is to connect a resistor (RSET) between SET and GND, such that ISET = VSET/RSET. The master oscillator equation reduces to:

tMASTER

=

1�s

�

R SET 50k

From this equation, it is clear that VSET drift will not affect the input-to-output delay when using a single program resistor (RSET). Error sources are limited to RSET tolerance and the inherent accuracy tDELAY of the LTC6994.
RSET may range from 50k to 800k (equivalent to ISET between 1.25�A and 20�A).

When the input makes a transition that will be delayed (as determined by the part version and POL bit setting), the master oscillator is enabled to time the delay. When the desired duration is reached, the output is allowed to transition.

The LTC6994 also includes a programmable frequency
divider which can further divide the frequency by 1, 8, 64, 512, 4096, 215, 218 or 221. This extends the delay duration
by those same factors. The divider ratio NDIV is set by a resistor divider attached to the DIV pin.

DIVCODE
The DIV pin connects to an internal, V+ referenced 4-bit A/D converter that determines the DIVCODE value. DIVCODE programs two settings on the LTC6994:
1. DIVCODE determines the frequency divider setting, NDIV.
2. The DIVCODE MSB is the POL bit, and configures a different polarity setting on the two versions.
a. LTC6994-1: POL selects rising or falling-edge delays. POL = 0 will delay rising-edge transitions. POL = 1 will delay falling-edge transitions.
b. LTC6994-2: POL selects the output inversion. POL = 1 inverts the output signal.
VDIV may be generated by a resistor divider between V+ and GND as shown in Figure 1.

2. The driving impedance (R1||R2) does not exceed 500k.

OPERATION

If the voltage is generated by other means (i.e., the output of a DAC) it must track the V+ supply voltage. The last
column in Table 1 shows the ideal ratio of VDIV to the supply voltage, which can also be calculated as:

VDIV V+

DIVCODE + 0.5 16

For example, if the supply is 3.3V and the desired DIVCODE is 4, VDIV = 0.281 � 3.3V = 928mV � 50mV.

OPERATION
Edge-Controlled Delay
The LTC6994 is a programmable delay or pulse qualifier. It can perform noise filtering, which distinguishes it from a delay line (which simply delays all input transitions).
When the voltage on the LTC6994 input pin (IN) transitions low or high, the LTC6994 can delay the corresponding output transition by any time from 1�s to 33.6 seconds.
LTC6994-1 Functionality
Figures 3 details the basic operation of the LTC6994-1 when configured to delay rising edge transitions (POL=0). A rising edge on the IN pin initiates the timing. OUT remains

low for the duration of tDELAY. If IN stays high then OUT will transition high after this time. If the input doesn't remain high long enough for OUT to transition high then the timing will restart on each successive rising edge. In this way, the LTC6994-1 can serve as a pulse qualifier, filtering out noisy or short signals.
On a falling edge at the input, the output will follow immediately (after a short propagation delay tPD).Note that the output pulse width may be extremely short if IN falls immediately after OUT rises.
Figure 4 details the operation of the LTC6994-1 when configured to delay falling edges (POL = 1).

OPERATION
LTC6994-2 Functionality
Figures 5 details the basic operation of the LTC6994-2 when configured for noninverting operation (POL = 0). As before, a rising edge on the IN pin initiates the timing and, if IN remains high, OUT will transition high after tDELAY.
Unlike the LTC6994-1, falling edges are delayed in the same way. When IN transitions low, OUT will follow after tDELAY.

If the input doesn't remain high or low long enough for OUT to follow, the timing will restart on the next transition.
Also unlike the LTC6994-1, the output pulse width can never be less than tDELAY. Therefore, the LTC6994-2 can generate pulses with a defined minimum width.

LTC6994-1/LTC6994-2

OPERATION
Changing DIVCODE After Start-Up
Following start-up, the A/D converter will continue monitoring VDIV for changes. Changes to DIVCODE will be recognized slowly, as the LTC6994 places a priority on eliminating any "wandering" in the DIVCODE. The typical delay depends on the difference between the old and new DIVCODE settings and is proportional to the master oscillator period.
tDIVCODE = 16 � (DIVCODE + 6) � tMASTER
A change in DIVCODE will not be recognized until it is stable, and will not pass through intermediate codes. A digital filter is used to guarantee the DIVCODE has settled to a new value before making changes to the output. However, if the delay timing is active during the transition, the actual delay can take on a value between the two settings.

Start-Up Time
When power is first applied, the power-on reset (POR) circuit will initiate the start-up time, tSTART. The OUT pin is held low during this time and the IN pin has no control over the output. The typical value for tSTART ranges from 0.5ms to 8ms depending on the master oscillator frequency (independent of NDIV):
tSTART(TYP) = 500 � tMASTER
During start-up, the DIV pin A/D converter must determine the correct DIVCODE before the LTC6994 can respond to an input. The start-up time may increase if the supply or DIV pin voltages are not stable. For this reason, it is recommended to minimize the capacitance on the DIV pin so it will properly track V+. Less than 100pF will not extend the start-up time.
At the end of tSTART the DIVCODE and IN pin settings are recognized, and the state of the IN pin is transferred to the output (without additional delay). If IN is high at the end of tSTART, OUT will go high. Otherwise OUT will remain low. The LTC6994-2 with POL = 1 is the exception because it inverts the signal. At this point, the LTC6994 is ready to respond to rising/falling edges on the input.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

Basic Operation
The simplest and most accurate method to program the LTC6994 is to use a single resistor, RSET, between the SET and GND pins. The design procedure is a 3-step process. Alternatively, Linear Technology offers the easy-to-use TimerBlox Designer tool to quickly design any LTC6994 based circuit. Use the free TimerBlox LTC6994: Delay Web-Based Design Tool.
Step 1: Select the LTC6994 Version and POL Bit Setting.
Choose LTC6994-1 to delay one (rising or falling) input transition. The POL bit then defines which edge is to be delayed. POL = 0 delays rising edges. POL = 1 delays falling edges.
Choose LTC6994-2 to delay rising and falling edges. Set POL = 0 for normal operation, or POL = 1 to invert the output.
Step 2: Select the NDIV Frequency Divider Value.

Select the standard resistor value closest to the calculated value.
Example: Design a circuit to delay falling edges by tDELAY = 100�s with minimum power consumption.
Step 1: Select the LTC6994 Version and POL Bit Setting.
To delay negative transitions, choose the LTC6994-1 with POL = 1.
Step 2: Select the NDIV Frequency Divider Value.
Choose an NDIV value that meets the requirements of Equation (1), using tDELAY = 100�s:
6.25  NDIV  100
Potential settings for NDIV include 8 and 64. NDIV = 8 is the best choice, as it minimizes supply current by using a large RSET resistor. POL = 1 and NDIV = 8 requires DIVCODE = 14. Using Table 1, choose R1 = 102k and R2 = 976k values to program DIVCODE = 14.

As explained earlier, the voltage on the DIV pin sets the
DIVCODE which determines both the POL bit and the
NDIV value. For a given delay time (tDELAY), NDIV should be selected to be within the following range:

tDELAY 16�s

 NDIV



tDELAY 1�s

(1)

To minimize supply current, choose the lowest NDIV value. However, in some cases a higher value for NDIV will provide better accuracy (see Electrical Characteristics).
Table 1 can also be used to select the appropriate NDIV values for the desired tDELAY.
With POL already chosen, this completes the selection of DIVCODE. Use Table 1 to select the proper resistor divider or VDIV/V+ ratio to apply to the DIV pin.

Step 3: Calculate and Select RSET.
The final step is to calculate the correct value for RSET using the following equation:

Step 3: Select RSET. Calculate the correct value for RSET using Equation (2).

Since 625k is not available as a standard 1% resistor, substitute 619k if a �0.97% shift in tDELAY is acceptable. Otherwise, select a parallel or series pair of resistors such as 309k and 316k to attain a more precise resistance.
The completed design is shown in Figure 9.

Voltage-Controlled Delay

With one additional resistor, the LTC6994 output delay
can be manipulated by an external voltage. As shown in

Figure 10. Voltage-Controlled Delay

Digital Delay Control
The control voltage can be generated by a DAC (digital-toanalog converter), resulting in a digitally-controlled delay. Many DACs allow for the use of an external reference. If such a DAC is used to provide the VCTRL voltage, the VSET dependency can be eliminated by buffering VSET and using it as the DAC's reference voltage, as shown in Figure 11. The DAC's output voltage now tracks any VSET variation and eliminates it as an error source. The SET pin cannot be tied directly to the reference input of the DAC because the current drawn by the DAC's REF input would affect the delay.
ISET Extremes (Master Oscillator Frequency Extremes)
When operating with ISET outside of the recommended 1.25�A to 20�A range, the master oscillator operates outside of the 62.5kHz to 1MHz range in which it is most accurate.
The oscillator will still function with reduced accuracy for ISET < 1.25�A. At approximately 500nA, the oscillator will stop. Under this condition, the delay timing can still be initiated, but will not terminate until ISET increases and the master oscillator starts again.
At the other extreme, it is not recommended to operate the master oscillator beyond 2MHz because the accuracy of the DIV pin ADC will suffer.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Settling Time
Following a 2� or 0.5� step change in ISET, the output delay takes approximately six master clock cycles (6 � tMASTER) to settle to within 1% of the final value. An example is shown in Figure 12, using the circuit in Figure 10.

Figure 12. Typical Settling Time

Coupling Error

The current sourced by the SET pin is used to bias the internal master oscillator. The LTC6994 responds to changes in ISET almost immediately, which provides excellent settling time. However, this fast response also makes the SET pin sensitive to coupling from digital signals, such as the IN input.

Even an excellent layout will allow some coupling between IN and SET. Additional error is included in the specified accuracy for NDIV = 1 to account for this. Figure 13 shows that �1 supply variation is dependent on coupling from rising or falling inputs.
A very poor layout can actually degrade performance further. The PCB layout should avoid routing SET next to IN (or any other fast-edge, wide-swing signal).

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

Power Supply Current
The Electrical Characteristics table specifies the supply current while the part is idle (waiting for an input transition). IS(IDLE) varies with the programmed tDELAY and the supply voltage, as described by the equations in Table 2, valid for both the LTC6994-1 and LTC6994-2.

When an input transition starts the delay timing circuity, the instantaneous supply current increases to IS(ACTIVE).
IS(ACTIVE) = IS(IDLE) + IS(ACTIVE)

IS(ACTIVE) can be estimated using the equations in Table3, assuming a periodic input with frequency fIN. The equations assume the input pulse width is greater than tDELAY; otherwise, the output will not transition (and the increase
in supply current will be less).

Figures 14 and 15 show how the supply current increases
from IS(IDLE) as the input frequency increases. At higher NDIV settings, the increase in active current is smaller.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Supply Bypassing and PCB Layout Guidelines
The LTC6994 is an accurate monostable multivibrator when used in the appropriate manner. The part is simple to use and by following a few rules, the expected performance is easily achieved. Adequate supply bypassing and proper PCB layout are important to ensure this.
Figure 16 shows example PCB layouts for both the SOT-23 and DCB packages using 0603 sized passive components. The layouts assume a two layer board with a ground plane layer beneath and around the LTC6994. These layouts are a guide and need not be followed exactly.
1. Connect the bypass capacitor, C1, directly to the V+ and GND pins using a low inductance path. The connection from C1 to the V+ pin is easily done directly on the top layer. For the DCB package, C1's connection to GND is also simply done on the top layer. For the SOT-23, OUT can be routed through the C1 pads to allow a good C1 GND connection. If the PCB design rules do not allow that, C1's GND connection can be accomplished through multiple vias to the ground plane. Multiple vias for both the GND pin connection to the ground plane and the C1 connection to the ground plane are recommended to minimize the inductance. Capacitor C1 should be a 0.1�F ceramic capacitor.

2. Place all passive components on the top side of the board. This minimizes trace inductance.
3. Place RSET as close as possible to the SET pin and make a direct, short connection. The SET pin is a current summing node and currents injected into this pin directly modulate the output delay. Having a short connection minimizes the exposure to signal pickup.
4. Connect RSET directly to the GND pin. Using a long path or vias to the ground plane will not have a significant affect on accuracy, but a direct, short connection is recommended and easy to apply.
5. Use a ground trace to shield the SET pin. This provides another layer of protection from radiated signals.
6. Place R1 and R2 close to the DIV pin. A direct, short connection to the DIV pin minimizes the external signal coupling.
