Description
This device consists of four independent precision
voltage comparators, which are designed
specifically to operate from a single supply over a
wide range of voltages. Operation from split
power supplies is also possible.
These comparators also have a unique
characteristic in that the input common-mode
voltage range includes the negative rail even
though operated from a single power supply
voltage.

1. Short-circuits from the output to V
maximum output current is approximately 20 mA, independent of the magnitude of V
2. Short-circuits can cause excessive heating. Destructive dissipation can result from simultaneous shortcircuits on all amplifiers. All values are typical.

3. Human body model: a 100 pF capacitor is charged to the specified voltage, then discharged through a
1.5 kΩ resistor between two pins of the device. This is done for all couples of connected pin combinations
while the other pins are floating.
4. Machine model: a 200 pF capacitor is charged to the specified voltage, then discharged directly between
two pins of the device with no external series resistor (internal resistor < 5 Ω). This is done for all couples of
connected pin combinations while the other pins are floating.
5. Charged device model: all pins and the package are charged together to the specified voltage and then
discharged directly to the ground through only one pin. This is done for all pins.

1. At output switch point, VO ≈ 1.4 V, RS = 0 with V
mode range (0 V to V
2. 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 output, so there is no loading charge on the reference of input
lines.
3. The response time specified is for a 100 mV input step with 5 mV overdrive.
4. 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 –0.3 V (or 0.3 V below the negative power supply, if used).
5. Maximum values are guaranteed by design.
