ALD2301A/ALD2301B
ALD2301C/ALD2301
DUAL PRECISION CMOS VOLTAGE COMPARATOR WITH OPEN DRAIN DRIVER
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ALD2301A/ALD2301B/ALD2301C/ALD2301 is a monolithic high
performance dual voltage comparator built with advanced silicon gate
CMOS technology. It features very high typical input impedance of
10
12
Ω;
low input bias current of 10pA; fast response time of 300ns;
very low power dissipation of 55µA per comparator; and single (+5V)
or dual (±5V) power supply operation.
The input voltage range includes ground, making this comparator
ideal for low level signal detection with high source impedance. The
outputs are open-drain configuration, allowing maximum application
flexibility, such as wired-OR connection. The outputs can be con-
nected to a higher external voltage than V
+
.
The ALD2301A/ALD2301B/ALD2301C/ALD2301 is ideal for a great
variety of voltage comparator applications, especially low level signal
detection circuits requiring low standby power, yet retaining high
output current capability as needed.
