The LTC
®
1998 is a micropower comparator and a preci-
sion adjustable reference in a 6-pin SOT-23 package that
is optimized for lithium-ion low battery detection circuits.
The LTC1998 features a voltage detection circuit with an
adjustable threshold voltage and hysteresis. The thresh-
old voltage can be programmed from 2.5V to 3.25V with
two external resistors. A 10mV to 750mV hysteresis can
be added with a third external resistor.
A proprietary internal architecture maintains 1% thresh-
old voltage accuracy over temperature with low cost 1%
external resistors.
A separate power supply pin, V
LOGIC
, allows the battery-
low logic output to operate below the battery voltage,
allowing compatibility with low voltage microprocessors
without a pull-up resistor. Power supply glitches are
eliminated by preventing the cross-conducting current
which occurs when the output changes state.
The LTC1998 operates with battery or supply voltages up
to 5.5V and its battery-low output is valid for battery
voltages above 1.5V.

QUICK DESIG GUIDE
How to Calculate the External Resistor Values
The LTC1998 is a low battery warning indicator and is
especially designed for monitoring the voltage of single-
cell Lithium-Ion batteries. The LTC1998 compares its
supply pin (BATT) to an accurate internal reference; if the
battery voltage falls below the programmed low battery
threshold voltage of the LTC1998, the battery low pin
(BATTLO) will change state, from high to low, to indicate
a low battery condition. The low battery threshold voltage
is programmed via the voltage threshold adjust pin (V
TH.A
).
A hysteresis adjust pin (V
H.A
) will add hysteresis to the
programmed value of the low battery threshold voltage.

LOW BATTERY THRESHOLD VOLTAGE AND
HYSTERESIS ADJUST
Low Battery Threshold Voltage Adjustment, Pin 3
The low battery threshold voltage is the battery voltage
which will trip the (BATTLO) pin high to low. It should be
adjusted via the threshold adjust pin (V
TH.A
). This is a high
input impedance pin that senses an externally applied
voltage and programs the low battery threshold voltage
(V
BATT.Th
). The V
TH.A
pin is designed to accommodate
voltages from 0V to 1.5V with respect to ground. This
allows the low battery threshold voltage to be set to any
voltage between 2.5V and 3.25V, that is:

Figure 1. Low Battery Threshold Detector with Hysteresis
For instance, if the applied voltage at pin 3, V
TH.A
, is 1V the
LTC1998 will indicate a low battery condition when the
battery voltage pin (BATT) falls below 3V.
The voltage at the threshold adjust pin (V
TH.A
) can be set
with any voltage source. This pin allows a continuous time
adjustment, that is, the low battery threshold voltage may
be changed at any time. The high input impedance of the
V
TH.A
pin allows the use of a high valued resistive divider
(to minimize current drain) from the battery to set the
battery low threshold voltage, Figure 2.
