The LT®1011 is a general purpose comparator with significantly better input characteristics than the LM111.
Although pin compatible with the LM111, it offers four
times lower bias current, six times lower offset voltage and
five times higher voltage gain. Offset voltage drift, a
previously unspecified parameter, is guaranteed at
15µV/°C. Additionally, the supply current is lower by a
factor of two with no loss in speed. The LT1011 is several
times faster than the LM111 when subjected to large
overdrive conditions. It is also fully specified for DC
parameters and response time when operating on a single
5V supply. These parametric improvements allow the
LT1011 to be used in high accuracy (≥12-bit) systems
without trimming. In a 12-bit A/D application, for instance,
using a 2mA DAC, the offset error introduced by the
LT1011 is less than 0.5LSB. The LT1011 retains all the
versatile features of the LM111, including single 3V to
±18V supply operation, and a floating transistor output
with 50mA source/sink capability. It can drive loads referenced to ground, negative supply or positive supply, and
is specified up to 50V between V– and the collector output.
A differential input voltage up to the full supply voltage is
allowed, even with ±18V supplies, enabling the inputs to
be clamped to the supplies with simple diode clamps.

Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which the
life of a device may be impaired.
Note 2: Inputs may be clamped to supplies with diodes so that
maximum input voltage actually exceeds supply voltage by one diode
drop. See Input Protection in the Applications Information section.

Note 6: Drift is calculated by dividing the offset voltage difference
measured at min and max temperatures by the temperature difference.
Note 7: Response time is measured with a 100mV step and 5mV
overdrive. The output load is a 500Ω resistor tied to 5V. Time
measurement is taken when the output crosses 1.4V.
Note 8: Do not short the STROBE pin to ground. It should be current
driven at 3mA to 5mA for the shortest strobe time. Currents as low as
500µA will strobe the LT1011A if speed is not important. External
leakage on the STROBE pin in excess of 0.2µA when the strobe is “off”
can cause offset voltage shifts.
