LP265/LP365 Micropower Programmable Quad Comparator General Description Features The LP365 consists of four independent voltage comparators. The comparators can be programmed, four at the same time, for various supply currents, input currents, response times and output current drives. This is accomplished by connecting a single resistor between the VCC and ISET pins. These comparators can be operated from split power supplies or from a single power supply over a wide range of voltages. The input can sense signals at ground level even with single supply operation. The unique output NPN transistor stages are uncommitted to either power supply. They can be connected directly to various logic system supplies so that they are highly flexible to interface with various logic families. Application areas include battery power circuits, threshold detectors, zero crossing detectors, simple serial A/D converters, VCO, multivibrators, voltage converters, power sequencers, and high performance V/F converters, and RTD linearization.

Note 2: Short circuits from the output to V a may cause excessive heating and eventual destruction. The current in the output leads and the VE lead should not be allowed to exceed 30 mA. The output should not be shorted to Vb if VE s (Vb) a 7V. Note 3: For operating at elevated temperatures, these devices must be derated based on a thermal resistance of ijA and Tj max.

When X is high, oscillation stops and power drain is zero. If VE e 0.25V, then VOUT will be low if 1 of the 3 other outputs are low. Choice of VE e 0.50V causes VOUT to be low if 2 of the 3 other outputs are low; VE e 0.75V will cause VOUT to be low if all 3 other outputs are low. f e 20 kHz fe 1 1.6 # Rt # Ct 5 Typical Applications (Continued) Hysteresis from Emitter Ordinary Hysteresis TL/H/5023-6 TL/H/5023 - 7 It is a good practice to add a few millivolts of positive feedback to prevent oscillation when the input voltage is near the threshold. Positive feedback from the emitter can also prevent oscillations when VIN is near the threshold. Bar-Graph Display Level-Sensitive Strobe TL/H/5023-8 TL/H/5023 - 9 The positive feedback from pin 16 provides hysteresis. Comparators B, C, and D do not respond until activated by the signal applied to comparator A. 6 Typical Applications (Continued) Slow Op Amp (Unity-Gain Follower) Slow Op Amp (Inverter) TL/H/5023 - 10 TL/H/5023 - 11 RB e V a /20 mA RB e V a /20 mA Unlike most comparators, the LP365 can be used as an op amp, if suitable R-C damping networks are used. The LP365 can also be used as a high-input-impedance follower-amplifier with the damping components shown. Chopping Outputs Low Battery Detector TL/H/5023 - 13 TL/H/5023 - 12 IS @ 6V e 45 mA IS @ 3.8V e 1 mA f e 3 kHz Comparator A detects when the supply voltage drops to 4V and enables comparator B to drive a piezoelectric alarm. Chopping the outputs by modulating the ISET current allows data to be transmitted via opto-couplers, transformers, etc. 7 Simplified Schematic TL/H/5023 - 14 Current sources are programmed by ISET VE is common to all 4 comparators 8 Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) Plastic Surface-Mount Package (M) Order Number LP365M NS Package Number M16A 9 LP265/LP365 Micropower Programmable Quad Comparator Physical Dimensions inches (millimeters) (Continued) Molded Dual-In-Line Package (N) Order Number LP365AN or LP365N NS Package Number N16A LIFE SUPPORT POLICY NATIONAL'S PRODUCTS ARE NOT AUTHORIZED FOR USE AS CRITICAL COMPONENTS IN LIFE SUPPORT DEVICES OR SYSTEMS WITHOUT THE EXPRESS WRITTEN APPROVAL OF THE PRESIDENT OF NATIONAL SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION.
