LM193/LM293/LM393/LM2903
Low Power Low Offset Voltage Dual Comparators
General Description
The LM193 series consists of two independent precision
voltage comparators with an offset voltage specification as
low as 2.0 mV max for two comparators which were designed specifically to operate from a single power supply
over a wide range of voltages. Operation from split power
supplies is also possible and the low power supply current
drain is independent of the magnitude of the power supply
voltage. These comparators also have a unique characteristic in that the input common-mode voltage range includes
ground, even though operated from a single power supply
voltage.
Application areas includelimitcomparators,simple analog to
digital converters; pulse, squarewave and time delay generators; wide range VCO; MOS clock timers; multivibrators
and high voltage digital logic gates. The LM193 series was
designed to directly interface with TTLand CMOS. When operated from both plus and minus power supplies, the LM193
series will directly interface with MOS logic where their low
power drain is a distinct advantage over standard comparators.

Note 1: For operating at high temperatures, the LM393/LM393A and LM2903 must be derated based on a 125˚C maximum junction temperature and a thermal resistance of 170˚C/W which applies for the device soldered in a printed circuit board, operating in a still air ambient. The LM193/LM193A/LM293/LM293Amust be derated based on a 150˚C maximum junction temperature. The low bias dissipation and the “ON-OFF” characteristic of the outputs keeps the chip dissipation very small
(P
D
≤100 mW), provided the output transistors are allowed to saturate.
Note 2: Short circuits from the output to V
+
can cause excessive heating and eventual destruction. When considering short circuits to ground, the maximum output
current is approximately 20 mA independent of the magnitude of V
+
.
Note 3: This input current will only exist when the voltage at any of the input leads is driven negative. It is due to the collector-base junction of the input PNP transistors becoming forward biased and thereby acting as input diode clamps. In addition to this diode action, there is also lateral NPN parasitic transistor action on the
IC chip. This transistor action can cause the output voltages of the comparators to go to the V
+
voltage level (or to ground for a large overdrive) for the time duration
that an input is driven negative. This is not destructive and normal output states will re-establish when the input voltage, which was negative, again returns to a value
greater than −0.3V.
Note 4: These specifications are limited to −55˚C≤T
A
≤+125˚C, for the LM193/LM193A. With the LM293/LM293A all temperature specifications are limited to
−25˚C≤T
A
≤+85˚C and the LM393/LM393A temperature specifications are limited to 0˚C≤TA≤+70˚C. The LM2903 is limited to −40˚C≤TA≤+85˚C.

Electrical Characteristics (Continued)
Note 5: The direction of the input current is out of the IC due to the PNP input stage. This current is essentially constant, independent of the state of the outputso
no loading change exists on the reference or input lines.
Note 6: The input common-mode voltage or either input signal voltage should not be allowed to go negative by more than 0.3V.The upper end of the common-mode
voltage range is V
+
−1.5V at 25˚C, but either or both inputs can go to 36V without damage, independent of the magnitude of V+.
Note 7: The response time specified is for a 100 mV input step with 5 mV overdrive. For larger overdrive signals 300 ns can be obtained, see typical performance
characteristics section.
Note 8: Positive excursions of input voltage may exceed the power supply level. As long as the other voltage remains within the common-mode range, the comparator will provide a proper output state. The low input voltage state must not be less than −0.3V (or 0.3V below the magnitude of the negative power supply, if used).

Application Hints
The LM193 series are high gain, wide bandwidth devices
which, like most comparators, can easily oscillate if the output lead is inadvertently allowed to capacitively couple to the
inputs via stray capacitance. This shows up only during the
output voltage transition intervals as the comparator change
states. Power supply bypassing is not required to solve this
problem. Standard PC board layout is helpful as it reduces
stray input-output coupling. Reducing the input resistors to
<
10 kΩ reduces the feedback signal levels and finally,adding even a small amount (1.0 to 10 mV) of positive feedback
(hysteresis) causes such a rapid transition that oscillations
due to stray feedback are not possible. Simply socketing the
IC and attaching resistors to the pins will cause input-output
oscillations during the small transition intervals unless hysteresis is used. If the input signal is a pulse waveform, with
relatively fast rise and fall times, hysteresis is not required.
All input pins of any unused comparators should be tied to
the negative supply.
The bias network of the LM193 series establishes a drain
current which is independent of the magnitude of the power
supply voltage over the range of from 2.0 V
DC
to 30 VDC.
It is usually unnecessary to use a bypass capacitor across
the power supply line.
The differential input voltage may be larger than V
+
without
damaging the device (Note 8). Protection should be provided
to prevent the input voltages from going negative more than
−0.3 V
DC
(at 25˚C). An input clamp diode can be used as
shown in the applications section.
The output of the LM193 series is the uncommitted collector
of a grounded-emitter NPN output transistor.Many collectors
can be tied together to provide an output OR’ing function. An
output pull-up resistor can be connected to any available
power supply voltage within the permitted supply voltage
range and there is no restriction on this voltage due to the
magnitude of the voltage which is applied to the V
+
terminal
of the LM193 package. The output can also be used as a
simple SPST switch to ground (when a pull-up resistor is not
used). The amount of current which the output device can
sink is limited by the drive available (which is independent of
V
+
) and the β of this device. When the maximum current limit
is reached (approximately 16 mA), the output transistor will
come out of saturation and the output voltage will rise very
rapidly. The output saturation voltage is limited by the approximately 60Ω r
SAT
of the output transistor. The low offset
voltage of the output transistor (1.0 mV) allows the output to
clamp essentially to ground level for small load currents.
