If the state of the SEL pin confi gures a given input as
“negative polarity,” the voltage at the ADJx pin must be
below the trip point (0.5V nominal), or the
R
S
T output will
be pulled low. Conversely, if a given input is confi gured
as “positive polarity,” the pin voltage must be above the
trip point or
R
S
T will assert low.
Thus, a “negative polarity” input may be used to determine
whether a monitored negative voltage is smaller in absolute
value than it should be (–UV), or a monitored positive
voltage is larger than it should be (+OV). The opposite is
true for a “positive polarity” input (–OV or +UV). These
usages are also shown in Table 1. For purposes of this

data sheet, a negative voltage is considered “undervoltage”
if it is closer to ground than it should be (e.g., –4.3V for
a –5V supply).
Proper confi guration of the SEL pin and setting of the
trip-points via external resistors allows for any two fault
conditions to be detected. For example, the LTC2909 may
monitor two supplies (positive, negative or one of each)
for UV or for OV (or one UV and one OV). It may also
monitor a single supply (positive or negative) for both UV
and OV. Tables 2a and 2b show example confi gurations
for monitoring possible combinations of fault condition
and supply polarity.
