description/ordering information
The TLC3704 consists of four independent
micropower voltage comparators designed to
operate from a single supply and be compatible
with modern HCMOS logic systems. They are
functionally similar to the LM339 but use 1/20th
the power for similar response times. The
push-pull CMOS output stage drives capacitive
loads directly without a power-consuming pullup
resistor to achieve the stated response time.
Eliminating the pullup resistor not only reduces
power dissipation, but also saves board space
and component cost. The output stage is also fully
compatible with TTL requirements.
Texas Instruments LinCMOS process offers
superior analog performance to standard CMOS
processes. Along with the standard CMOS advantages of low power without sacrificing speed, high input
impedance, and low bias currents, the LinCMOS process offers extremely stable input offset voltages with large
differential input voltages. This characteristic makes it possible to build reliable CMOS comparators.
The TLC3704Q is characterized for operation from −40°C to 125°C.
